Satire at its finest.

King’s Correction, “Why Can’t We All Just Get a Loan?”

King’s Correction, "Why Can’t We All Just Get a Loan?"

Rialto, CA—Rodney King’s lawyers have released startling statements from his last will and testament. The man known for sparking the 1991 L.A. Riots and for his inability to fend off LAPD—or swimming pools—amended his famous statement, “Why can’t we all just get along?” to “get a loan.”

King allegedly wrote, “You see, my wife and I had shitty credit at the time and no one was lending us any money. So we needed a loan.” King later failed to correct his misstatement with the press because, “It became popular, so I just kind of went with it. I never did get that mother f***ing loan.”

Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Police Department is suing The Daily Discord for our marquee joke earlier this week:

After battling for survival since 1991 Rodney King finally succumbs to his injuries.

We would really like to retract that, but…on second thought, we would like to dedicate it to LA’s finest.

Ouija Session Reportedly “Very Fustratting” for Dyslexic Ghost

Ouija Session Reportedly "Very Fustratting" for Dyslexic Ghost

Ann Arbor, MI—As part of a sleep over, a group of teenage girls climbed into the Miller’s attic on June 16th and held an over four hour Ouija session with one of the residence’s ghosts. The paranormal entity later described the event as “fukcing ecxcruciatting” for a tortured soul who sufferers from dyslexia.

Discord reporter, Cokie McGrath, believes the ghost in question has resided in the attic where the game took place since his untimely death, nearly 80 years ago. The apparition stated he would rather be left alone than be assailed by a bunch of teenagers who, after hundreds of questions, still couldn’t figure out that yes/no questions worked best.

The young ladies, who wished to remain anonymous, were perplexed by the ghost’s indecipherable responses such as, “I have servere dylslexia” and “I deid in this vrey place” and finally, “Why don’t you bithces play somehting eles?!”

The young lady who hosted the party told McGrath she believes the ghost wasn’t murdered, but added, “He sure can murdre the English language. Get it…murdre?”

After the comment the ghost is planning to “Huant that littel shit for ettenrity!”

Lindsay Lohan Feels Dump Trucks Should be More Clearly Marked

Lindsay Lohan Feels Dump Trucks Should be More Clearly Marked

Santa Monica, CA—After being rushed to UCLA Hospital after slamming her sports car into an unmarked dump truck, actress and problem child, Lindsay Lohan, told reporters, “Dump trucks should be forced to wear lighter clothing or should be covered in more blinking lights so people don’t crash into them after drinking.”

Lohan’s crusade against all things cloaked is not stopping there. The 26-year-old feels a similar initiative should apply “to all telephone poles, buildings, and pedestrians known to walk along roads.”

Miss Lohan’s suggestions are not, as yet, gaining much momentum. Her initiative earlier in the year to “Make the Pacific Coastal Highway Less Windy” has also gained little support from California residents.

“Look,” said Lohan, “I’m not saying it has to be straight as an arrow, but you try driving that bitch at over 100 mph with the spin monsters, bitches.”

Zuckerberg Lowered into Hole Until “It Rubs the Lotion on Its Skin”

Zuckerberg Lowered into Hole Until "It Rubs the Lotion on Its Skin"

Menlo Park, CA—Wall Street giant, Gordon Gekko, has decided on a proper punishment for the recent Facebook trading disaster. The CEO of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, was lowered into a hole yesterday by infamous serial killer Jame “Buffalo Bill” Gumb from Silence of the Lambs fame. Zuckerberg is sentenced to remain in the hole and will continue to “rub the lotion on its skin” until Facebook stock climbs back to at least 25 dollars a share.

Mr. Gumb explained to Zuckerberg, “It rubs the lotion on its skin or it gets the hose again.” Mr. Gumb has thus far ignored the prominent CEO’s pleas of generous payoffs and/or sexual favors. If stocks dip below ten dollars a share, Mr. Gumb plans to bring a whole new meaning to the word Facebook.

Mr. Gekko believes these tactics will help avoid poorly planned Initial Public Offerings, and should all but eliminate such trading glitches moving forward. Mr. Gekko went on to tell reporters, “If this shit doesn’t recover, I’m gonna tear his eyeballs out and I’m gonna suck his fucking skull. And when Romney wins the 2012 election, I plan to celebrate by wearing Zuckerberg’s face on my fucking face!” He then made an obscene cupping gesture and said, “Regulate this, Obama.”

When asked if his famous quote was inspired by the Ghetto Shaman’s signature work The Tao of Skullfucking, Gekko replied, “No way,” but later admitted to reporters, “But it is a good coffee table book for sure.”

Ron Paul Admits to “Partial Erection” after U.S. Announces Aid Cuts to Pakistan

Ron Paul Admits to "Partial Erection" after U.S. Announces Aid Cuts to Pakistan

Springfield, VA—This week’s announcement from the White House that aid to Pakistan will be cut $33 million was followed by a proud statement from Ron Paul’s headquarters in Springfield Virginia.

Paul pole supporter, Peter Johnson, told the press, “Our fearless leader reported considerable wood after the exciting news.” He went on to call this a “half mast event” not seen since the Republican’s full-blown attack on Planned Parenthood funds.

Ron Paul later confirmed initial reports, “A partial erection at my age represents a significant amount of blood flow to my penis.”

His son, Senator Rand Paul, is concerned, “If they cut all aid to other foreign countries and then send our troops home, they might have to rush my dad to the hospital again.”

Were that to occur, Mr. Paul agreed the Washington Monument would have some competition, and he vowed, “If I do get a full erection, I will personally screw the Federal Reserve into the dirt.”

Paul is denying rumors his slogan has been changed to “I might have lost the election, but not my—.”

“Hardly,” said Paul.

Bush Celebrates Memorial Day by Skipping Out on Tab

Bush Celebrates Memorial Day by Skipping Out on Tab

Amarillo, TX—When the tab for his party arrived, George W. Bush was already heading for the door. What could be a more poignant way to celebrate Memorial Day, he thought, than to skip out on the tab? Our former President and his guests rushed out of Amarillo’s premiere meatery, the Big Texan Steak Ranch, leaving a nearly $200 tab unpaid.

Our former President later told reporters, “For me Memorial Day is a special kind of day when we celebrate those special kind of voters who got me re-elected. And leaving without paying was a fitting gesture.”

When asked why, Bush said, “Look, Memorial Day is about celebrating the past. If you’ll remember, I didn’t really pay for anything during my presidency either, social programs, wars, hookers, nothing. This was a special day of remembrance…and I remember not paying for anything.”

When asked if this is in honor of missing most of his National Guard duty during the Vietnam War, Bush smiled, “I wouldn’t say I missed it, heh heh heh.”

Dan Rather was unavailable for comment.

Greece Downgraded and Relocated to Africa

Greece Downgraded and Relocated to Africa

Athens, GR—The final insult to a once proud civilization came today when Angela Merkel of Germany downgraded Greece to a countrytoid. The Prime Minister formally kicked them out of the EU and with a word banished the lot to Northern Africa. Germany is funding the €27 billion project to have Greece towed south across the Mediterranean Sea.

Merkel told the world today, “I did not come to this decision lightly, but it’s kind of like when you are in a division we’re each night your team gets pummeled. Once in Northern Africa, Greece will find itself winning some games, at least comparatively. And, if and when they earn their first €27 billion, we will be happy to reconsider their EU application and the logistics of their return trip.”

The Greek President, Karolos Papouplias, warns that the God Zeus is prepared to come to his country’s aid.

Zeus later denied this claim, “Look, I generally like to turn into an assortment of animal forms and hump some mortal women now and again. That’s pretty much my whole itinerary these days.”

Man Who Lost Everything on Facebook Investment Vents on Twitter

Dave Blotchenski

Indianapolis, IN—E*Trader and yuppie wannabe, Dave Blotchenski, lost most of his retirement money this week after investing in the ill fated Facebook wave.

“I just thought, hell, I’m on Facebook all the flippin’ time, so is everyone else,” said Blotchenski. “Besides, Facebook promised to create thousands of new millionaires, and guess who was the first of my friends to like? Isn’t that worth something anymore? Now every time I see that little E*Trade baby I want to kick him in his pre-toddler face.”

Upon news of the massive dip in the company’s stock, Blotchenski tweeted, “Help! I lost it Al! I have officially bought the FarmVille!”

He meant to type, “I lost it all” but later blamed the typo on a combination of insomnia and household inhalants.

His pleas did not fall on deaf ears as several Facebookers came to the rescue by leaving important comments like, “Did you see the Ranger/Devils game last night?” and “You lost it Al? Who’s Al? LOL” and “You said you’d help me acquire a FarmVille tractor, bitch?!” Four others inexplicably liked his comment.

Mr. Blotchenski admitted after stocks fell to 38 dollars a share, he considered virtual suicide. “I just wanted to unplug everything, all of it, and maybe go outside.”

To the horror of his family, who were completely engrossed in X-Box 360 at the time, Mr. Blotchenski was last seen heading to a park with a baseball bat and a mitt. Having no idea where the neighborhood park is exactly, his family has been asking if any members of his social sites have seen him.

Captain Viagra Peters Out

Captain Viagra Peters Out

Hughesville, PA—The Daily Discord originally signed a two year contract with fellow Discord contributor, Dave Atsals, for his Captain Viagra series. Discord lawyers are now working diligently to nullify the deal. The agreement involved weekly installments of Mr. Atsals’ cartoon, inspired by his own sad, libido-less antics. Thus far the cartoon has brought the popular ezine only scrutiny.

“Umm, we get enough of that,” said the Discord’s CEO, Pierce Winslow. “We have no shortage of scrutiny. Every day over my morning coffee I read how we ‘suck’ or how ‘the Crank is demeaning to aardvarks’ or ‘isn’t skullfucking a felony?’ On that note, no skulls are ever violated during the creation of The Ghetto Shaman’s weekly column (mostly).”

The first installment had Captain Viagra and his trusty sidekick, The Cialis Kid, jetting across the galaxy in his long sleek rocket ship, The U.S.S. Priapus. At the end of the first episode, our hero catches up with the female antagonist, Vagina Villainous, and slams his ship repeatedly into her unprotected Moon Base.

Pierce Winslow added, “The cartoon went out to about five hundred fans as a pilot, but the negative feedback rivaled our recent Nazi Fugitive Makeover.”

When it was pointed out how the Ghetto Shaman column has been late four of the last five weeks, Winslow said, “Maybe we are going to run it. The Shaman is dead. Long limp Captain Viagra!” He then shouted, “To infidelity and beyond!” but later asked to have that quote removed. Winslow admitted he was a little excited when he said that, but he will seek treatment if it lasts longer than four hours.

Gingrich Reveals his 32-State Concession Speech Tour

Gingrich Reveals his 32-State Concession Speech Tour

Washington, DC—Former Speaker, former GOP nominee and former human being, Newt Gingrich, has revealed his ambitious countrywide concession tour extravaganza. Mr. Gingrich’s handlers, now down to his wife and his wife’s boyfriend, claim the donations are pouring in for this important slice of American history.

Sarah Palin told our own Cokie McGrath, “Newt is making a bold statement. He’s saying we’re not going to put up with the tyranny of the Obama Administration any longer, and he’s doing it in a way not unlike when Samuel Adams signed the Constitution in that really big font.”

Michele Bachmann later corrected the record for Palin, “She means, of course, when Gomez Adams signed the Magna Carta.”

After losing the nomination, Gingrich told the press it gave him time to think. After a deep reflective meditation, involving bottom shelf bourbon, he realized America deserved this long bittersweet farewell tour. “I don’t want to look back on this one day and say, ‘why didn’t I just go the fuck home and try not to be an asshole to my third wife?’”

With continued donations, Gingrich hopes to upgrade his tour vehicle from his own ‘creeper van’ to a large RV. “Maybe something with an American flag on it and a catchy saying like Freedom’s Fizzle,” said Gingrich.

When Cokie McGrath suggested he go with, “Why didn’t I just go the fuck home and try not to be an asshole to my third wife?” Gingrich replied, “Too long. I can’t afford a bus that big.”
