The movie. :lol:

Edit: that probably wasn't enough information. It's like an OTW thread. U.S. haters and liberals will love it (it mostly gives the liberal assholes a pass) but it's funny regardless of your views.

Plot summary:

Middle-aged office worker Frank is getting really fed up with all the assholes in his world and the downward spiral of society. His neighbors are annoying lemming morons, he's divorced and his daughter is a spoiled brat, his co-workers are shallow, media-engrossed idiots. He loses his job for "sexually harassing" the receptionist, who always smiles at him and apparently flirts with him. HIs doctor tells him he's got a brain tumor. That's the final straw.

Instead of killing himself, he decides to rid the world of some of its biggest assholes, mostly people he's seen on TV, and some he just happens to encounter.

As a taste, this is a conversation he has with a co-worker shortly before he finds out he is fired:

I thought it was an excellent satire, and funny as well.

I laughed out loud several times while watching it. It's not a great movie, but it's good, and the message is an excellent one (a bit of liberal bias notwithstanding).

Why make a movie when life is so much more entertaining. There has to be a real shooting happening somewhere in the USA. Someone got to be on a mission.

Whatever it is these names have in common, it is not the European Union.
Maybe these people watched too many US American movies. That MPAA stuff makes people sick.

The biggest mass murderer of my people is Spain.

Spain is the biggest mass-murderer in human history, by far. Probably by an order of magnitude. Think what they would do with modern weaponry and a reinvigorated gene pool.

I caught this on Netflix and I'm about 1/3 through. Erm, is it bad if I identify with the protagonist?

Obama phoned them at the last minute and told them to lose to the Europeans, saying that beating them would hurt his chances for re-election, and that he'd make it up to them after the election, when he'll have more flexibility.
