Sam, Climate Science says that this storm is easily explained by
anthropogenic pollution. In this case it wasn't the usual fossil fuel CO2
causing problems, but rather man's widespread use of the chemical Viagra.

From this climate scientists quickly surmised the cause behind why the
storm was surprisingly quick forming and long lasting...

It was a joke about junk science, not a lie.

Nope, only those whose English is so bad that they can't recognize obvious
satire.
