Now this is funny!






(Of course, not funny if you don't know who that is.)

I've seen that, but I wonder if the poster is really an idiot, or was making a canny joke. I mean, a lot of people must use a laptop on the subway, right? Why snap this particular one? It's still funny, but I don't know if I'm laughing at Mr. Hale, or with him.

Small google search indicated that the poster was making a joke. Got a lot of hate in the process, though...

It's like you're twins. Brothers from other mothers! Where'd you get that sharp vest, Bear? Or wait, is that Neil?
