Listen to Limbaugh, BGM?

One of my favorite expressions of his is, "Pointing out absurdity by being
absurd".

Problem is, most people don't get it when you do it...

Yes, this is very true. I can't help poking fun, though.

You DID hear about the guy that's suing Starbuck's for a few MILLION
dollars because they ended a coupon promotion early, right? That one is
for real, and he's trying to turn it into a Class action suit. That means
he and the Lawyers will get MILLIONS and everyone else will get...

A free cup of coffee.
