Smug Alert

Smug Alert is episode 2 of season 10 of South park. The Satire that is involved in Smug Alert is the fact that every one is WAY to smug. The Episode is about the smugness of people who drive hybrids and how they think that they are saving the environment. They then go on to do that even though the emissions of CO2 are down a new pollutant has appeared called "smug". "smug" is self satisfied garbage that is spewed out by hybrids. I think we should watch this because it satarises the hybrid car.

What should not be satire

Satire. Satire is funny, but satire like many subjects can go too far. The chasers had a moment when they went to far. They made a skit on the make a wish foundation but they made it make a realistic wish. Sick people should never be satarised. most of these people have diseases that isn't their fault that they caught it. People with cancer have nearly no cure to their disease and the cure is a horrible cure that strips them of all that is them really. These people have no defense and then these people on the Television will make fun of them. These people have had bad luck and therefore have life ending diseases. Will we allow these bullies to attack these defenseless people. Will you the people just sit back and allow this to happen? Will you be as bad as them or worse because you just let it happen? These poor helpless people are getting attack by these big people and they aren't being punished. The Holocaust and 911 aren't satarised so why is terminally ill people satarised? These people are living right now and they are being bullied on national television. why are we allowing them to do this? Most people think its wrong but forget about it. But the terminally ill people who see this will not forget that they were made fun of and will die with this knowledge. So we must stand up for these people most who cannot stand up at all. Terminally ill people must NOT be satarised and should be on the list of people who are not allowed to be satarised.

Activity 1

Dear the Makers of 'The Simpsons',
Well the Idea I had was that you could make a episode on the Bosses of QANTAS and flying QANTAS. Well 1st the Simpsons get delayed at LAX when flying QANTAS to Sydney then when they arrive they are delayed again on the Tarmac then are delayed when they are waiting for their luggage. Then they are invited to the QANTAS bosses house as an apology and when they get their the boss is really really mean but apologies at every opportunity. Then the boss goes on and says along the lines of "even us bosses have no money I mean I have 20 Lamborghini's and 40 Ferrari's compared to the boss of CBA who have 50 Lamborghini's and 90 Ferrari's." it would focus upon the theme of the QANTAS bosses being so apologetic and saying that they have no money but it is actually the opposite. Also it would focus upon the fact that they are mean jackasses but apologies to everything that they can physically think of.

Activity 3

News Presenter: Welcome back to KBCSS, today the Gillard Government got its mining tax through the lower house. when the vote passed there were outpourings of emotions, Mr Abbot jumping into his speedos and flying away on his ears, Mr Swan was promising more shit that won't happen, Julia Gillard sneezed the house down from the stress and Mr Rudd tried to take control of the situation again giving a 50 minute speech when no one was listening and hardly any one was there. The mining bosses took to the streets in protest by hiring civilians to do it for them and the workers all went on strike again giving no reason for the strike apart from "we need some R&R". Well now we are going over to our reporter at the party, Bob how is the atmosphere down there.
Bob: well the atmosphere is good, the rave music is a bit to loud and the neighbors were complaining but the neighbors got arrested when they angered Mrs Gillard. Down here at the party there are strippers hookers and all number of seedy bits and bobs. Mrs Gillard is having her way with many many a man and Mr Rudd is still trying to take control of the situation. Mr Swan got into a fight with Mr Abbot but before Mr Swan was able to take him on, Mr Abbot just flew away using his massive ears. Ahh hear we go Mrs Gillard is completely hammered and is now having a cat fight with Mr Rudd. Well Back to you in the studio
News Presenter: thank you Bob well now the mining officials are now grovelling to the government to not implement this tax people say they learnt a thing or two from the QANTAS staff and management.
