Remember when Team America: World Police was a movie and not a government blueprint?

Reflecting on the ride home from Tropfest, and being hit with a sudden rush of crippling second-hand embarrassment (and even a bit of first-hand, will not clarify).

That SYD Confidential was given ANY consideration is a fucking joke. That it went home empty-handed is the mildest of mild comforts.
