Annual Asshole Parade Features City’s Biggest Asshole; Half-Hearted Controversy Ensues
So much for rolling into 2009 free of Joey Vento posts.
The skit featured Vento popping out of the top of a float labeled “Gewizno’s Steaks” with a “When ordering, speak English” sign. Vento waved a poster reading, “What?” and tossed fake cheesesteaks into the crowd.
Then an announcer for B. Love Strutters cried out, “Uh-oh, here comes the Border Patrol!” Club members wearing Texas-sized cowboy hats and brandishing wooden rifles pretended to hold back a rioting crowd of “immigrants” from storming the border “fences.” As the immigrants burst forth, they traded in their country’s flag for an American flag, and a Mummer dressed as President-elect Barack Obama handed out Green Cards.
The world is a vampire.

I know you guys love that stuff, just admit it. Your criticisms of the Mummers are just hiding your sick downright love of the worst aspects of it. Don’t tell me your eyes don’t light up in delight at the wacky Geno’s antics!!! Closet urban rednecks!!
Haha! I’m just messing with you!!

If we do indeed cotton to the notion of the urban hick, then we have to allow for its corollary, the rural sophisticate.
(What–You say they don’t exist? How parochial of you!)
