FCC announces ban against mirrors between the hours of 6 AM and 10 PM.
(AP) Washington, D.C. -- Citing both adult and child full frontal nudity, the FCC has declared mirrors public enemy number one in the war on traumatic exposure to nudity. In a decision based upon the ability of mirrors to be used as communication devices, the FCC has issued a $1 million fine against households with mirrors that show nudity between the hours of 6 AM and 10 PM.

FCC Chairman, Kevin Martin on the mirror decision, "With this decision the FCC closes a major loophole in the censorship of improper nudity everywhere in America's homes. Children simply shouldn't be subjected to their own nudity until the age of 18, when we'll decide if they can handle it."

When asked about other methods of communication the FCC is looking at censoring, Martin continued, "We're looking at eyes, it seems to me that both eyes and ears are the most important part of this. We need to get to the root of the problem. Several of the commissioners are looking at either banning eyes and ears outright, or incorporating a device into the human brain to automatically censor any unwanted language/nudity."

5. I say we sing George Carlin's Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television
as our anthem. I don't know how we'll do it, but we'll find a way.

18. Associated Puritans LOL. Too Funny!
Edited on Sat Jan-26-08 01:00 PM by OPERATIONMINDCRIME
I do have to agree a bit though... Every time I look at myself nude in the mirror I'm a bit traumatized.

Very funny thread. Thanks!

:rofl:
