Danbury CT Names A Sewage Plant After John Oliver
I don't know how many of you know this douchenozzle (HBO show on the weekends), but this is one way you fight back against big leftist corporate media. I admire their creativity.
[Zero Hedge] - The Connecticut city formerly best known as "dirty Danbury" - perhaps previously best known for the name of the nearby women's prison where "Orange is the New Black"'s author served her sentence - is back in the headlines this week after announcing that it plans to name its new sewage treatment plant after HBO comedian John Oliver.
The term 'comedian' being in the eyes of the beholder.
Why? Because Oliver lambasted the city in a bit from his popular weekly political humor show "Last Week Tonight". During a segment about discrimination in jury selection affecting most of Connecticut's small-ish cities (it's a mostly suburban state), Oliver offered to "fight" anybody from Danbury, because "f**k Danbury," he said.
Aside from Oliver's charming rebuttal, I'd bet $100 on anyone of our Rantburg faithful, regardless of age, fighting and beating this complete wuss. Easy money!
During the unveiling, the mayor of the city said the name was appropriate because the plant is "full of crap, just like you, John".

The comedian focused on the racial disparities in jury selection and reports that minority residents of the Connecticut cities of Hartford and New Britain were excluded from selection.

#1 What did that poor sewage plant ever do to deserve that?

At least sewage plants serve a vital
purpose for society and civilization.

What purpose does John Oliver serve?
