It burns, but we can't wash it off because THE GOVERNMENT IS BANNING SOAP!

I'm pretty sure They Might Be Giants know that it's SOPA. That was probably a typo. Especially since their twitter account is maintained by John Flansburgh, an admitted bad speller.

The soap part didn't bother me near as much as the ones trying to explain it.
Sigh. I suppose they will duplicate one of these days.

If these people are right and the government is banning soap, it seems like the politicians are really following the lead of OWS, many of the occupiers have been boycotting soap since the movement started.

Q: Recent reports have shown most Americans can't understand SOPA. Why do you think this is?
A: I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some, people out there in our nation don't have soap and, uh, I believe that our, uh, soap like such as, uh, South Africa and, uh, the Iraq, everywhere like such as, and, I believe that they should, our soap over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., uh, or, uh, should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to soap up our future, for our [children].

Wow! I assumed drunk, dyslexic or fast typing would be to blame for anyone confusing SOPA with SOAP. I even tweeted this yesterday:
Once again, I underestimated the level of stupidity on the internet.

"their [sic] trying to censor the internet. like all of it. no more free movies, music anything..."
SOPA is an overreach, but people like this are turds. Crying because you can't steal movies? My generation has such a sense of entitlement, greed, and lack of gratitude that it's astonishing.
