I laughed so hard I sprayed Tide all over my keyboard and monitor. Thanks.
I'm pretty sure I would not like to live in a world in which I would never be offended.

Maybe a subject for the soapbox, but why is everyone so oversensitive and politically correct these days? It was clearly meant in a non serious manner.

As you say, a matter for the SB... I've carried this on there...

Have you given up wearing T-shirts, button-down shirts (in fact most clothing)? Have you stopped buying other products made in third world countries?

It wasn't any tribe of Earthlings that built the pyramids, it was all done by space aliens. I learnt that from a documentary on The History Channel and then checked my facts by watching another one, so I'm 100% certain on this one.
