The #VoxTake Game
Here's a game you can play.
I was talking with a friend about Vox, and its painfully stupid "Actually the American Revolution was a bad idea and here's why" story.
I said their whole business plan was aggressive stupidity. The more provocatively dumb they are, the more hits they get.
Then we start parodying #VoxTakes, which consist, usually, of the following formula:
Actually + [prattish, assholish contradiction of a thing that is obviously true] + and here's why
He said
Actually burning my dick off with a soldering iron was the best thing that could have happened to my genitals
and I said
Actually AIDS is awesome and here's why
Obviously you don't need the actually/and here's why part. All you really need to do is be an attention-seeking prat and say really stupid shit.
So you can try that if you want.
Oh, and here's Sulu's stupid non-apology fake apology.
