Perhaps satire but I didn't think it was funny. I thought it was sad.
Funny is ...
Lewis & Martin, Abbot & Costello, George Carlin and Robin Williams.
Ok, maybe the last is a little over the top, but still funny.

Wm. F. Buckley famously said something to the effect
that liberals are tolerant of all points of view until
they discover there actually *are* other points of view.

Interesting. Among the people I passed this along to today, almost
everyone understood this to be satire. The one and only group that
did not were ideological liberals. Methinks there's some message there
having to do with the need to be offended just to feel alive...
