Daily Show writer’s Oklahoma tornado joke actually funny now that someone explained it to me

May 24, 2013 By Kathy Shaidle

Yeah, I have menopause brain, sorry.

I didn’t place it in the context of the “IRS targeting conservatives” thing.

NOW I get it. Sheesh.

I didn’t think the joke was a big whoop at the time, and now, days later, I feel obligated to stick up for the writer even more.

Lighten up, conservatives!
