Let's Not Go to Prison

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

Tonight is Bush's final State of the Union address, thank God. The Democratic response will be given by Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sibelius, who can't be too happy about having her Obama-at-the-convention moment ruined by her own son, who just announced the release of a board game called "Don't Drop the Soap." The game is as hilariously offensive as it should be.

According to the AP, John Sibelius is the 23 year old son of the conservative Kansas Governor, who may be one of the best looking old ladies in politics today. But that's beside the point. Check out the insanity:

"Fight your way through 6 different exciting locations in hopes of being granted parole. Escape prison riots in The Yard, slip glass into a mob boss' lasagna in the Cafeteria, steal painkillers from the nurse's desk in the Infirmary, avoid being cornered by the Aryans in the Shower Room, fight off Latin Kings in Gang War, and try not to smoke your entire stash in The Hole."

That's from the Rhode Island School of Design student's website, which says the launch date is this Thursday. Until then, we'll have to make do with classic "satire," like this line from the Associated Press:

"The site describes 'Don't Drop the Soap' as a game 'Where no one playing enters through the front door!'"

The best part of all? This is actually allegedly a class project for RISD. How long do you think before that school gets a thrashing in the press like Bob Jones University? Anyway, buy the ultra-overpriced board game here.

dudes- the image link you've provided for Kathleen Sibelius ("best looking old ladies") sends you to a pro-life website. In the interest of not sending these hate-mongers traffic, please PLEASE link to another pic.

While I'll admit she is indeed a MILF in all the right places, this pro-life webpage makes me sick (not just for its views alone). Can't you just borrow the pic link directly?

I love the crudely funny irony of a drinking game "celebrating" an assholic alcoholic. That's why the only way you can subject yourself to tonight's State of the Union and still survive to vote again, you need The State of the Union
