Conan O'Brien Lives In A Mental Bunker

This might be the weirdest thing I'll see all week.


Does it even need any commentary? I don't think so.

Update: OK I've got to add one comment.

This is not just a lie, it's a lie that everyone who worked on this event could see with their own eyes to be a lie. The resort where Conan is sipping his tropical cocktail in the water off the serene beach is surrounded by razor wire fences and patrolled by armed guards. All of the resorts down there have that kind of security.

Further, not only do they know it's a lie, we know it's a lie. We all know this is a lie and yet, there he is, soaking up the rays and sipping a drink like it's Grand Cayman.

What in heaven's name is going on with us? It's like the dominant culture is completely psychotic.

Ok, Conan, prove it by immigrating there. Oh, and maybe you could get the rest of those lefties who said they’d leave if Trump won to go with you.

Indeed, Ohioan@Heart.

They never meant any of it and it doesn't cause them to rethink their positions.

It's a religion, not political.

If you think of Dems and Repubs as adolescents and grown ups it explains everything.

Here's a slightly more erudite explanation than mine.

Ligneus - yes. The most recent studies show that the prefrontal cortex is not fully developed until 25. So people tend to be liberal when they are young (because they think without the use of the still developing rational part of their brain). Then once those parts are developed many people become more rational thinkers. This allows them to understand that those feelings based ideas are not realistic. This is the basis for the well known saying “If you are not liberal before 25, you have no heart. If you are not conservative after 35, you have no head”.
