Don't believe me? Then you should really check out the adventures of one Napoleon Dynamite.

Yes, that is the title character of the movie. First, let me warn you that there is no plot to this story. And it's not meant to make you think. There's also no violence, sex, or language. How's that for wholesome goodness? Oh yes, you're going to laugh at the people in the film. This brings back the 80's memories.

But where do we begin? With Napoleon. You'd have to be an idiot not to laugh at this guy. I mean who goes up to a girl and asks, "Why are you drinking one percent milk? Do you think you're fat or something? Cause you're not." Golden, people, golden.

And Uncle Rico is the consummate salesman. I couldn't stop laughing when he showed Napoleon and Kip the video of him throwing footballs. Who does that?

The romance between Kip and Lafawnda is not only touching, but downright funny. You gotta be jealous of Kip for chatting with babes in cyberspace all day long. And that gangsta look, oh, that gangsta look is priceless.

Pedro offers you his protection by beating an effigy of your enemy. "That's not the way we do things here, Pedro". Napoleon Dynamite even touches cultural humor!

And that's just touching the tip of the iceberg. The ending scene totally brings out the awesome of Napoleon Dynamite. How can you not laugh at the "I caught you a delicious bass" line? I don't want to spoil much more, but even haters of this fine movie find it to be quotable.

In fact, if you want to continue being my friend, you have to see Napoleon Dynamite all the way through.

Or how the UN should get more slack from the USA.

You know, we tried this world league thing once, after World War I. Oh yeah, something called the League of Nations. That son of a minister Wilson wanted self determining nations. That sure worked.

Now we're trying this United Nations thing, a government heavily favored towards the five permanent members of the Security Council. The beautiful thing is that the United States hides its imperial tendences behind a push for "world democracy". American actions beg to differ.

Truthfully, it can be summed up like this: Americans want something, they claim its good for freedom, and they go out and do it. Then they'll ask for U.N. support after the fact. Is that any way to treat the world government?

Cut us some slack, we're relying on the goodwill of all nations here.
