Cries the Hypocrite

He watches **** on the internet!

…says the man with an
animated, tentacle fetish.

His humor is crude and inappropriate!

…says the guy who breaks out
Catholic priest jokes on command.

He’s disrespectful to women!

…declares the man who slept with
a seventeen-year old at a college
party, then paid for her abortion.

He’s a horrible racist!

…says the professor who claims
your skin-color defines your ‘identity.’

We’re ahead of the moral curve!

…says an actor accused of
drugging underage teens by
three separate young men.

We’ve moved beyond superstitious faith!

…says a person who believes
you can change gender just
by thinking it so.

He’s a hypocrite!

…cries the hypocrite. But honestly
people, who here isn't one?

Come on, anybody?

Anybody.

No?

Didn’t think so. Don’t worry,
I’ll keep your secret.

…actually, I probably won’t.
