While listening to NPR’s podcast of “Wait, Wait… Don’t Tell Me” — which is sort of the radio equivalent of Hollywood Squares — the topic of discussion turned to the neo-nazi sympathies of the guy who created those useless brine shrimp “pets” marketed as “Sea Monkeys.”

One of the panelists made the following painfully-unfunny joke: “Was his autobiography called Sea Monkey Kampf?”

I’d like to offer the follwing replacement to anyone else who was as negatively impacted by this unfortunately unfunny joke as I was:

“Was his autobiography called Brine Kampf?”

It may not be hilarious, but at least it makes sense.
