I like the Roy Keane as an angry bearded muslim post.
stephengiles
As someone from Alabama, there are barely any Muslims in Birmingham!
Haxk
Best comment of the day was 'Birmingham changing its name to birmingnohamweremuslim'

Lol Muslim Bale
theicklestone
Those poor jams.
SwillinVillain
Fox leans right and 999,999 other outlets lean left. Yep, let's lie and exaggerate as much as we can to shut that down.
quisp99
The jam jar one ... perfect!
THISISDARIANS
You mean... the jam jar bean ?
Necropants
That was my favorite.

OMG fast, check they're not out of dates.

As a muslim i can say : THIS IS FUNNY (could barely read with my burqa on )

I listen to morning prayers from my favourite Sharia approved Alternative radio!

My sides.
BigEatsBen
I appreciate this humour
Smarbury92
Just for the record though, I fucking love Kerrang.
XIXXXVIVIII
Gotta love that Jihad Doom bloke! He once gave me a bottle of champagne that gave me explosive diarrhoea.
InspectorMonroe
Please, it's called Birming. We need to keep it halal and kosher.
JimNeverHasASecondCupOfCoffeeAtHome
But seriously, if there was a video of the Queen beheading some dude like that, one arm, ceremonial sword, I'd watch it in a heartbeat.
isshunsengeki
Oh man i genuinely hal-loled
ZAHRAN99
As a Muslim i lost my shit going through these.... MOAR!!! pls
findmeinbadcomments
What a dummy, it's not even remotely Sunni in Birmingham.
LoopStricken
The weather in Birmingham is constant battle between Sunni and Shi'ite.

It should be Islam Bale, I think.
KNIVESY
I was mostly using that failbook post about Islam so and so and Christian blahddy blah as reference.
TurningTurningIntheWideningGyro
Wouldn't that only make sense if his name was Christianity Bale?
Ravenuser
What happened to Christian Bale? seriously, is that makeup for a movie?
TheRealCJ
Apparently it was a make-up test for The Dark Knight Rises

The cricket one made me lose it.
FinnlyP
Why was Hashim Amla playing for England? He is South African isn't he...
brbgoingtonarnia
I'm in awe of his marvelous beard game.
TheRealCJ
That was the one that convinced me to make this post.
ahsanzee
A cricket commentator lost his job once for calling hasim amla a terrorist... he said something like :"the terrorist strikes again"
MisleadingInformation
As a citizen of Birmingham I can confirm there are plenty of Non-Museums here. I actually live in a Non-Museum currently.
aroastedrutabaga
This dude did end up apologizing fully. Good on him. And he said he made an "error", but i'm wondering what the fuck city he meant to say...
lawyerboi
As someone who is currently near Birmingham, for some parts of the city, that comment isn't that for off...
TheRealCJ
Just about every city in Europe, was the implication.
aroastedrutabaga
Thats what i'm thinking.
frogger44
Well, at least Emerson's apology was an actual apology.
JamShady
he didn't apologise to Muslims for maligning them? Just Birmingham for getting a basic fact wrong.
frogger44
Out of all of the non-apologies that I've read, at least his was an apology. Whether or not it was for the offended group is another story
TheRealCJ
Do you know what his apology sounded like? "sorry about saying that about Birmingham... All the other places I mentioned? Totally legit"
frogger44
Again, better than most. The bar isn't set very high when it comes to public figures and their apologies.
SoothsayeroftheDark
Absolutely hilarious. Thank goodness for FOX NEWS, keeping hundreds of satirists in jobs - without having to work a day in their life.
Luvvie
If you love what you do, you never *have* to work a day in your life.
thefatlonelyjew
I get the joke but i question your count of how many people make a living off of satire
thefatlonelyjew
*satire of Fox news
TheHypestShit
Hundreds seems about right. Maybe a thousand or two thousand at most.
sniffo
TENS of thousands
SoothsayeroftheDark
Your ignorance of how the world works is duly noted.
jeangaijin
Somebody showed President Obama a story from Fox News last year, and his first reaction was, "Is this from The Onion?"
SoothsayeroftheDark
That's the problem with the USA - the political spectrum is so skewed satire is hard to discern from fact.
theb1ackduck
I totally believe it...I want that to be real.
EbolaCzar
Please tell me this is real... sauce?
jeangaijin
Wow, I don't remember. I think it was an article in Slate, maybe? Sorry, I just tried Googling it and got nothing.
EbolaCzar
Yeah, I can't find it either :/ Thanks for trying

As a Brummie, I fucking love this.

"fooking" surely?

best thing I read was 'All people in Birmingham now required to read the Kerrang'!

Ooo we spot you, my friend. Some people can spot, in crowd, individuals who are from a town 5 miles across just by their accent c: I respect

your dedication, our regional dialects can be fierce. Where are you staying? Birmingham? O:
Nobby76
id never have guessed the Chinese quarter was entirely muslim.
Nobby76
Also id never have guessed all the rastas, catholics and christians were muslim as well..

I'm from walsall, am I allowed in?

Close enough.
himynameisRi
I accidentally ended up taking a train from B'ham to Walsall once. You're definitely close enough.

Hello Walsall! I'm from Walsall too! Never thought we would come up on imgur!

Small world ay it!
Solkanarmy
fox news to a non-american appears to be the place you guys keep your racists and other assorted morons so they can't do any real damage
baconsmellsreallygood
*All American media on TV. MSNBC & CNN operate similarly. As a conservative I get my information from multiple sources but mainly BBC
luminarist
Unfortunately, millions of people believe their crap and go around repeating it like the have the Truth. It's both sad and frightening.
someoldbroad
I wish this were true, but the fanatical and simplistic Nationalism they espouse has been destabilizing the political right.
notirrelevant
Sadly, there are people who drink their Kool-Aid. Mostly senior citizens and such.
IamJustGoingToSayExactlyWhatiAmThinking
whole extended fam drinks it. my fam is liberal due to liberal mom. dad turned liberal in old age. extended family gatherings get tense.
Whydopeoplekeepcallingmethat
If only they didn't do real damage...
corneliusgansevoort
As an American, I think they are definitely doing damage. Millions of Americans listen to Fox News like gospel.
baconsmellsreallygood
Pretty sure you can extend that to all American Media on TV. CNN, MSNBC, and Fox all do this bc they get good ratings.
SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE
It's honestly just the only news network the left wing media is allowed to bash. They're no worse than MSNBC, just on the other side
Solkanarmy
I may be misinterpreting here, but what's the other side of racism?
SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE
It's nitpicked, out of context quips that people hear to make all Fox seem racist. I could do the same with MSNBC but I have a life
Abrausedteleprot
You do realise that to the rest of the world, the idea of claiming your media is "left wing" is laughable right?
SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE
Which is why I'm glad that I live where I do
TheHypestShit
MSNBC is very liberally slanted, but at least they don't spread blatent lies and conspiracy theories with the intent to instill hatred.
baconsmellsreallygood
They do on some news. Watching news in US turns into a battle of "He said, she said" between different news entities when something happens
Impossibrew
They did really botch their coverage of the George Zimmerman/Travon Martin case though .
SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE
They absolutely do, just not when their president is in power
TheHypestShit
When Anders Brevik killed, MSNBC never suggested that Christians were dangerous and untrustworthy.
SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE
If the Daily Show spent half the time watching MSNBC for fodder as they do Fox I'm sure you'd find a lot of things you wouldn't like
