The liberals are destroying California, and conservative humor gone awry... Conservative humor gone awry is going to fascistphonia today, so stay tuned.
We're going to take a few pictures of the desert and how their policies are actually messing it up.
It's not beautiful when you go across that border.
Stay tuned guys, we'll show you exactly what it looks like when you're going to destroy the desert.
Follow their environmental stuff.
Stay tuned.
Alright, I'm Alexander Edward.
And I'm Tony Boswell.
And we are Minion Death Cult.
The world is ending.
Fake hurricanes are responsible.
We're documenting it.
What's up, everybody?
Welcome to the show.
If you don't know, we are a comedy and politics show that often says things that we do not believe ourselves.
Yes.
Such as the idea of their existing fake hurricanes.
That's That was kind of taken on by me as like a joke to introduce the show, and that's what we will be talking about today.
But just to assure anybody tuning in for the first time, no, we do not think the hurricanes that killed 66 people on the East Coast are fake.
Those are the kinds of people that we will be talking about today.
Yes, that's the kind of good stuff we find.
Anything that's disconcerting is usually a quote from somebody else that is not us.
Hurricanes are very real.
Lots of love to all the people that have been affected by it.
Uh, extremely fucked up.
Uh, what, class four hurricane hit Florida and North Carolina and Tennessee and, uh, other states and just wreaked kind of unimaginable havoc.
Like the, uh, the videos and the photos you're seeing coming out of there.
Like I really kind of beyond, uh, what I've typically seen with the hurricane, you know, in the last few years, uh, just entire neighborhoods underwater.
Um, Yeah, it's wild to see.
thrown away, just people's whole houses and neighborhoods gone. - Yeah, it's wild to see.
And it's funny 'cause like, I guess I just wasn't like as online as I usually am.
I like didn't really see much about it and realize how bad it was until this morning.
And wow, just like, like I said, just lots of love to the people that we know out there and care about and everybody else, of course, but especially to those that we, that we know and who've been affected by it.
It's like, wow, hearts go out to you.
Cause like I said, it's not, you think, you think it would be.
You think like, you know, working at the bar or something like that, somebody would have been like, these hurricanes are crazy.
Right.
But I just, it's just not getting the coverage that you, that it deserves.
And I think that allows for people to say things like, Oh, these are fake hurricanes.
Yeah.
Well, the, uh, the fake hurricane stuff kind of came before the devastation.
We're not talking about like people think that the photos are altered from the flooding or, or from the wind or anything like that.
No.
And I'm going to try to, um, I'm going to try to sort of tackle these events in chronological order here.
Um, but yeah, looking at this devastation, looking at, um, The path of the hurricane and how just awful it was.
Who could have predicted this?
The Weather Channel.
Yeah.
The Weather Channel could have predicted this and one man really did not appreciate that.
We got to talk about cat turd again, Tony.
Oh, cat turd is becoming like a regular here, not in a good way.
We haven't talked about Cat Turd in a while.
I don't know.
I love this little guy.
Needed to get back to him, frankly.
And so the first thing I have from Cat Turd, the first thing I saw was from September 26th, who said, something is off about the reporting of this hurricane.
And I was like, you know what, Cat Turd, you're so fucking right.
You are so right.
But I couldn't really tell what was off about it, you know?
And so I like kind of waited for more information to come through via Cat Turd.
Yes.
And so we have a follow-up from Cat Turd, Overhyped Bullshit.
Also on September 26th.
And you're sure this is about, this is about like the hurricane and not like Chapel Rhone, right?
I think so.
Yeah, unfortunately, I think you're right.
I think this is about the hurricane.
Are you calling Chapel Roan's music overhyped bullshit?
No, no, not at all.
I'm saying Cat Turd would say that.
I think that Chapel Roan made a fantastic pop album and I appreciate it.
And it's a fun thing to listen to with the kid on the way to school.
Got it.
And our enemies probably would hate it because it's good.
Yeah.
And the enemies probably, like, they don't like good things.
No, they hate good things.
They can't stomach it.
If he tried to listen to it, it would probably, like, his head would explode, like a malfunctioning robot.
Yeah.
No, Tony, this is not about Chapel Rhone.
It's still about the hurricane that, at September 26th, Was predicted to be incredibly powerful and devastate the East Coast.
But according to Cat Turd, it's overhyped bullshit.
If you don't know, Cat Turd has like 2 million followers on Twitter.
Jesus.
And so the something is off about the reporting of this hurricane tweet got 55,000 likes and 9.5 million views.
The one that says overhyped bullshit.
That's 10,000 likes with almost a million views.
And then he elaborates.
OK, so I agree.
I agree, Cat Turd.
Something's off and it's overhyped.
So now we're getting to like kind of what you're talking about.
Overhyped.
Yeah, they're trying to scare us.
They're hyping it up, but why and to what degree?
And Cat Turd elaborates.
Just so you know, the weather channel for the past 14 hours had my area's radar with these dark red and yellow storms hitting all day with this tremendous power caused by the outer bands of the hurricane.
But in reality, there was zero lightning, zero thunder, and almost no wind all day where I live.
Just thought you might want to know.
I mean, that is...
Seeing it is believing it.
And if you're not seeing the red in your area that is on the on the map, then how do we believe it's true?
You know, it's clearly like a digitally altered image or something that they're showing to us, because that's not what it looks like outside.
No.
Yeah, I love it.
But in reality, there was zero lighting, zero thunder and almost no wind all day where I live.
The one thing that he doesn't mention is rain, because he got 20 inches of rain on his property where it was flooded.
But but Zero lightning.
Zero lightning and zero thunder.
Which is crazy.
You'd think you could have one or the other, but neither?
No, neither.
Crazy.
I wonder if that dark red and yellow means just rain.
I don't know.
I'm not going to try to figure out what the actual facts that the Weather Channel was reporting through the lens of Cat Turd.
I think that way lies chaos.
That way lies danger.
And then finally he says, it's all a joke.
It's all just a sick joke.
Like I'm picturing the comedian.
You're like what?
breaking into my house, but it's a cat turd.
Cat turd breaking into my house in the middle of the night and I wake up to see him drunk and sobbing.
You know, he's got all his military gear still on.
It's all just a big goddamn joke. - It's all a joke. - And you're like, you're like, what?
And he's like, the Weather Channel.
You're like, oh fuck, I know.
I understand why you're crying now.
Me too, bro.
I mean, it is a joke.
Who even watches that?
How is it still on TV?
You know, I don't understand.
Like, this must be some sort of joke.
The only way they're going to do this is by, you know, feeding us lies.
I like what's what's the worst case scenario about About somebody overhyping like a storm, maybe like people being overly prepared, which is like probably not the worst thing, right?
Yeah, I mean, the this next example, because he's quoting Sean when he says it's all a joke.
And Sean, Sean Faraj, who's part of some, I don't know, right wing organization.
She's like a podcaster or something like that.
I think his name is like Captain Deplorable or some shit like that.
But, you know, he's got hundreds of thousands of followers on here.
And this tweet said, I just saw the Weather Channel's coverage of the eyewall as it came into Perry, Florida.
Not even gusts were above 100 miles per hour where their field reporter was.
And then Chuck, we got a lot of stuff to get to.
And then Chuck Colesto says, do you have power to Cat Turd?
And Cat Turd says, of course, nothing is happening here like they're reporting.
They're lying.
They're lying to us, Tony, about the hurricane.
And then more from Sean, shame on the Weather Channel and Jim Cantore.
Honestly, they're not capturing any real time footage of 140 mile an hour plus winds.
And Cantore had the nerve to say since the county where it came ashore is sparsely populated, those winds could exist and they're just not being recorded.
This sounds just like lies to me.
The more data a scientist or reporter gives me, I'm like, well, that's obviously a lie.
These are lies.
This is a web you're spinning.
You wouldn't give me so much data if you weren't trying so hard to support an argument.
Support a narrative.
Why are you giving me so much data?
Oh, and all this data somehow fits your narrative.
Very interesting.
Convenient.
Reality is those winds are measured miles above the surface.
So this is like the truth or aspect is they were measuring the winds too high to make them seem more extreme because the winds are always going to be...
Because there's like jet stream up there.
It's always going crazy up there.
You know what I mean?
Like you don't don't don't spit spit in my face and tell me it's a hurricane is what I'm saying, you know, and then but here's here's what they're worried about.
All this does is make people take the next one less seriously, even if it turns out to be a bigger threat.
So that's the worry.
That's the worry that all these right-wing accounts are spinning up doubt about the hurricane that just hit landfall, you know, prior to it hitting landfall.
But they're spinning these doubts because they're, quote, worried that when the next one is bad, people won't take it seriously.
So I'm going to preemptively not take this one seriously in the hopes that, whoa, we'll be taking it back and we'll be surprised.
And now maybe the next time we'll know to take it seriously.
So good.
Actually, kudos.
I like them speeding up the process, frankly.
And then just like a speed run of this.
From Ben.
This is shared by Ben into the Facebook group.
But Todd Starnes was caught tweeting the weather channel has the has to fuel the fake narrative about quote climate change by making every storm the most apocalyptic and catastrophic in the history of the earth.
Very next tweet.
Urgent flash flood emergency for the Lake Lure Dam.
Dam failure imminent.
Residents below the dam need to evacuate to higher ground immediately.
Uh, which is not funny that a dam burst in, I think this is probably the Tennessee dam that burst.
Um, but it's just like, how do you, how do you not kill yourself after doing like, honestly, how do you not at least delete the first tweet?
I mean, it's there either way.
People probably got screenshots of it because you're like telling people that the upcoming weather event is fake right before it's about to lay waste to almost an entire coast of people.
So this is phase one of what we saw.
This is everything before the actual hurricane hit landfall okay and so i just wanted to touch base with cat turd and see how he was feeling once the hurricane actually hit uh he says there there went the 107 bridge Quote tweeting a video of a highway 107 bridge in Greenville collapsing, being taken out.
He shares a video of an oncoming surge of water taking out people's homes and cars and says, good grief.
It's just so great because like, first of all, don't say anything in the first place, right?
When you don't say the thing where it's not going to be that serious and then definitely shut your mouth when you were wrong.
Like, but it's funny because the whole thing is like.
It's all engagement.
No one's gonna look back a day in my tweets to see how dumb I was yesterday.
I can just say whatever I want right now.
Just shut the fuck up.
So funny.
I love good grief.
Good grief, yeah.
And then this one's my favorite.
He's sharing an entire U.S.
bridge being taken out, or no, there's an entire highway being covered in water.
I-40 just drenched.
You can't even tell there was a road there.
And Cat Turd says, water is the most destructive force.
It's always the tidal surge or the rivers flooding that cause the most damage.
Oh, for real?
Oh, shit!
Is that so?
Wow, that's so true.
I love that so much, dude.
Me before Class 4 Hurricane.
Putting a snorkel on the dog I didn't run over to make fun of the weather channel.
Me after the Class 4 Hurricane.
Water is nature's most potent force.
All who do not accept her dangerous beauty shall bow before her when the time comes.
I'm imagining catching Mike.
I think this hurricane is not that big of a deal.
And then flash forward.
I think this hurricane is pretty catastrophic.
I think it's pretty, pretty devastating.
What is that accent?
Yeah, it's like that dumb meme where like usually that a restaurant they're like, I don't think I like chilies and then like their face is covered in wing sauce and they're like, I think I'm starting to like chilies like a kid is doing that.
Yeah, it's like a kid voice.
No, I haven't heard that.
Yeah, that meme.
I love just being like, damn, who knew water could be so devastating?
It's so fucking funny.
One thing they were doing to dunk on the weather channel is they were creating their own fake weather reporting to demonstrate how the weather channels being like hyperbolic and, you know, trying to push climate change, which is kind of the the underlying argument here is that the weather can't be real because climate change is fake.
You know?
Yeah.
Um, even though they've like spent a lot of time saying, well, weather events aren't connected to climate change.
That's just one weather event.
It's not, you know, they've like abandoned even that.
Now they're just like, if you mention a hurricane being bad, that's fake because it supports climate change.
But yeah, this is, um, a video from the lectern guy who says climate change is real.
me to you live now from florida the hurricane we've been waiting for the storm of the century is here we waited three days and the kids out of school early i'm not sure why i'm not sure why but they've been here it's been a good time so he's got his kids uh spraying him with water and there's like a leaf blower blowing at him but then also the trees in the background are blowing pretty violently.
Yeah.
There's like wind everywhere.
He's got his kids outside in the middle.
I don't know where this guy's from.
I'm assuming fucking Florida because this is the lectern guy as in the guy who stole the house, whatever.
Oh my God.
That's what Nancy Pelosi's podium.
And I was like, wait, this guy is making TikToks.
This guy's making videos.
Why isn't he in a CIA black site?
I was being led to believe that all these January 6 guys were being punished, were being whipped and kept in solitary confinement and stuff.
But this guy is making Twitter videos debunking a class 4 hurricane moments before it devastates several states around him.
Incredible.
And like you said, like it is, it is happening.
Like the only thing that's really, really embellishing is the noise of the blower and the hose being sprayed on them.
But yeah, it's the, the, the trees and stuff are getting whipped around behind them.
Just like, like, you don't even like it.
You don't.
You've proved the hurricane exists by trying to make this fake video.
I don't know what the fuck is happening in your brain.
I think maybe he was kept in solitary confinement or he just went insane from whatever cruel and unusual punishment the feds were levying against him.
Um, I, I was like, how is this guy free?
And I went and looked up his, uh, his Wikipedia and under the January 6th United States Capitol attack, uh, it, it tells us that he only served 75 days in jail and like had a $5,000 fine.
uh, for unlawful trespass.
Like he got all his charges knocked down from like theft of government property, um, like violently in breaking and entering like that got dropped.
And the only one that was dropped was like knowingly entering, uh, uh, whatever, uh, place you weren't supposed to be.
But it's so fucking funny that this is like the height of the right-wing persecution complex is making fake videos in front of us, directing his children during a hurricane to make a video mocking God, mocking the weather.
All the while using a picture of him committing the crime he did as his profile picture.
And that's his display name.
He's the lectern guy.
Jesus.
That's incredible.
The entry is so funny on him on Wikipedia.
Before the attack, Johnson shared on social media that he would be in Washington, D.C.
On the way to the Capitol, he posted selfies on Facebook in an airport with other MAGA supporters.
In a rally on the night of January 5th, a Washington Post videographer captured him shouting expletives and implying that he did not believe President Biden was legitimately elected.
Following the rally, he posted a photo of himself on Facebook with the caption, RIOT!
On January 6, 2021, during the United States Capitol attack, Johnson was at the front of the riot, having sprinted from the Stop the Steal rally.
Like you didn't want to miss it.
He's like, oh, shit, it is happening.
He just ran at a full full speed rally at the White House after learning of the attack.
He spent 35 minutes inside the Capitol, entering three highly sensitive areas of the Capitol, according to prosecutors, and was photographed jiggling the handle of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's office suite.
Awesome.
Awesome.
I love like he can't he can't even go back.
No, that was a peaceful protest because he literally was quoting what he was saying.
No, this is a riot.
He found Pelosi's lectern near a spiral staircase and carried it to the Capitol Rotunda in the Rotunda.
He was photographed by a Getty Images photographer, Wynn McNamee, wearing a Trump themed ski cap and holding the lectern in his right arm.
A classic photo.
You got to give him that.
Yeah.
Really a good photo.
Infamous photo.
He asked a woman to take pictures of him standing in front of the podium, then left the lectern in the middle of the room.
He was then recorded telling the other rioters to use a bust of George Washington to break down the doors to the house chamber, as well as other encouragement.
I love that too.
He's not even doing, he's like, you know what you guys should do?
Use this bust, knock that door down.
That'd be badass, wouldn't it?
Somebody's got to be like, Cheering him on, you know, like I just love, as well as other encouragement.
I love that.
Like he's like, good job.
You know, wait, way to go.
Way to go team.
You know, 110%.
You know, I, I don't care what people say.
You did a good job holding Ashley Babbitt up to that window.
It's not your fault what happened afterwards.
She needed to listen.
You did that.
Thank you.
In the hours following the riot and the publishing of the photograph, Johnson was nicknamed podium guy on the Internet.
He wrote on social media that he, quote, broke the Internet and that he was, quote, finally famous.
So, yeah, if you're wondering why a man like this would keep his kids outdoors in wherever he's from during a hurricane.
It's because he's famous.
It's funny too, because brother, you didn't even have the most famous picture that day.
You did not break the internet that day.
No.
You guys all together collectively broke the internet.
Yeah.
That's for sure.
But no, they can't, they can't do collectivism.
You know, they gotta be, they're, they're, they're too selfish.
But yeah, that was like the fun kind of joking phase of Hurricane Truthers.
Uh, and now we're on kind of what I like to call the uh-oh phase.
Yep.
Uh, where yeah, Cat Turd, September 27th.
So the next day power has been out for a few hours.
Weather is completely calm and was when the power went out.
So not sure why.
I noticed one oak tree in my back pasture is down, but it was a tree that was leaning really bad and splitting down the middle that I was gonna have removed soon anyway, and the tweet cuts off here, but if you go to try and find out why the tree was already damaged, I think he, like, showed a photo of it or something, his excuse is to, well, it wasn't that windy, yeah, blew down a giant fucking oak tree, but it wasn't that windy, and plus, the oak tree was already damaged from previous hurricane.
I'm not joking.
Like I'm not fucking, I don't know how these people live with themselves.
I would fucking die of embarrassment if I posted any of this.
I love how fast these age poorly.
We usually need like a couple of days beforehand, but this is like less than 24 hours.
Less than 24 hours from, do you have power?
Of course.
Nothing is happening here.
Like they're reporting to, well, power's been out for 12 hours.
Amazing so fast so fast good morning axe power is still out guess I'm gonna have to fire up the generator to make some coffee Here's him From I think this is like yesterday this storm carried an unreal amount of rain my entire front pasture was underwater yesterday Had to be around 20 inches or so, but there was no lightning.
I do need to reiterate zero lightning and zero thunder It was torrential downpours all day Thursday.
Never had near that much rain in any hurricane I've been through over the years.
Deadly flooding in many states now.
Whoa, that's crazy, dude.
I hate laughing at this because it was devastating.
A lot of people were affected by it, but I'm laughing specifically at Catterd.
Listen, this is not going to be an historic storm.
This is just the worst rain I've experienced ever.
Right, so how do you think he's going to process that?
How do you think he's going to process going from, well, they were faking how extreme the hurricane was to promote climate change, to promote, you know, their anti-science or their science-ism, you know, their religious science-ism, to now, wow, this was a really fucking powerful storm.
It almost seems like a once-in-a-lifetime storm is happening pretty frequently now.
How do you think we're going to process that?
Well, first you have to ask questions, Tony.
And Cat Turd, this is again from like yesterday, Cat Turd asks, who would have ever thought that a hurricane hitting the Gulf Coast of Florida would damage the mountain areas of inland North Carolina the most?
Um, literally the weather channel.
He did, he did the, who would have thought that a hurricane could be so damaging?
You know, everybody thought it was all fun and games.
You know, I've seen, I've seen videos of the Florida guy headbanging in a hurricane.
I thought they were fun.
I thought it was like a party.
I thought it was sick.
I thought hurricane season was over.
Who could have ever thought that a hurricane would be damaging to North Carolina?
Jesus fucking... He did the thing!
Who would have ever thought a whale could be so heavy?
DrClownPhD, one of my favorite accounts, replies, IT'S CLIMATE CHANGE!
dash any typical Democrat response.
Why are you giving the Democrats so much credit right now?
No, like the, it's not climate change that a hurricane fucked up states.
That's like, not what climate change, it's just, it's, you guys are like denying even the hurricane, right?
Yeah.
Like Cat Turd is like, how did a hurricane that hit here damage this over here, right?
Like, oh, it's climate, that, you know why, you know why building seven went down?
Climate change is what the Democrats will tell you.
Yep.
That's like the degree of separation we're working with, I feel like.
And then another response to this, who would have ever thought that a hurricane could be so powerful?
Sean says, and in less than 24 hours, the number one issue for voters in the battleground state of North Carolina went from the economy and illegal immigration to disaster relief.
Really makes you think.
Whoa.
They did.
This seems nefarious.
The Biden administration did a hurricane to North Carolina so they would like them.
It's so it's so funny.
It's like, listen, a hurricane would have to be pretty huge to not just mess up Florida, but to actually mess up the inland mountains like that.
It had to be a pretty huge hurricane.
It's like, yeah, that that that is what it is.
Right.
Giant fucking hurricane.
Like, but you can't even you can't even talk about whether the hurricane was influenced by climate change because they don't even like.
Seems like they're not even acknowledging the existence of the hurricane.
Of the hurricane, yeah.
Like they think it's a fake hurricane or something.
It was fake because it was too big.
Predicted to be too big.
Then when it was too big, well, it's still gotta be fake because of how big it is, right?
Yeah.
This is somehow bigger than they reported even.
That's suspicious.
Because it feels like partially the conspiracy theory is Well, the reporting on the severity of the hurricane was deliberately correct as to make me look bad.
They did it on purpose.
They got the data on purpose to make me look bad.
It's pretty fucked up.
And it sucks cause they're not even saying like God dunked on you.
Like, cause that, that's what happened is God dunked on you.
You know, they're like, they're like, no, this is something's up here.
This is not right.
This is manmade, but it's not climate.
It's man, it's manmade hurricane change is what I'm calling it.
Listen, if, if, if destroying buildings is not voter interference, I don't know what is.
Oh, that's so true.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's a, that's a better, I think, conspiracy theory is that Biden targeted North Carolina, uh, for what?
Having, having such a strong Republican gubernatorial candidate in Mark Robinson.
Yeah.
Like he knew that turnout would be so good in North Carolina because of this, the amazing performance Mark Robinson has put on that they had to do something.
It would be funny if like Mark Robinson, like of all the terrible things he does, he actually does have a really good, like disaster relief plan.
He's like, that's the one thing you like really good.
He's like a nerd about that.
Like that disaster relief is like his trains, you know.
I sincerely can't believe I think he would have Jews are controlling the weather theory to rival Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Yeah, absolutely.
Revisiting back to the lectern guy after this is this is after the hurricane has hit.
In like, maybe more severely in other places, but the lectern guy posts a photo of like, you know, a fairly young tree, but still, you know, like a seven foot tall tree or something like that broken down from his yard.
And he says, we will rebuild.
And this is supposed to be like a joke, right?
That like, oh, you know, a little a little plant was single plant got knocked over, you know, but but but we will survive.
And Washington's ghost, who's like a kind of a big right wing account says, never forget.
And then I clicked over to Washington ghost profile to see if he was still making fun of the hurricane on his actual account.
Uh, and in fact, he's sharing a video of the widespread devastation in North Carolina and says, I'm just trying to bring attention to how absolutely devastating the storm was since the government doesn't want to acknowledge it.
So now the government doesn't want to acknowledge how bad it was.
Like, it's so funny because cloud engagement, it means nothing.
It clearly means nothing.
It's like, I'm going to go ahead and go along with this one, but I'm going to post everything opposite thing on the other direction.
It just honestly, like, it always reminds me of the Simpsons bit where Grandpa Simpson, like, refuses to believe any actual doctor and demands there to be a quack in there.
And then Nick Riviera comes in, he's like, oh, you've got, you know, bonitis or whatever he says.
And Grandpa Simpson is like, now we're talking.
That's the good stuff.
They're just like, it's just like, give me any conspiracy theory to believe that will Like justify what I'm seeing on my phone at this particular moment.
And it doesn't have to connect to a broader theory of the world or anything like that.
It just has to justify this one post.
One moment.
Yeah.
So I can get engagement or just so I can feel good about my politics.
Honestly, like the lecturing guy is so lucky that people are actually dealing with like devastation and trying to rebuild their homes and create, create, you know, maintain shelter for their families because he deserves to get his ass beat so bad.
Oh yeah.
I mean just for this, just for this profile alone, not even about the last couple of days, epic George Washington with the pixelated shades and his name is Washington's ghost.
Are you fucking kidding me?
I wonder how he feels about them wanting to use the bus to break down the door.
You shouldn't be able to bring your lunch to work.
Somebody should take your lunch from you.
Yeah.
You should get, you need to bring back workplace bullying for this guy, please.
Uh, yeah.
And just similarly, like, uh, the right hand replies to this, this post making fun of the hurricane and all they did was blow down this little tree.
Right hand replies, quote, Florida strong, quote, we're all in this together, quote, build back better, blah, blah, blah, blah.
NPC talking points.
And then I, again, because it's so fascinating to me to see all these right wing people making fun of a hurricane that killed so many people and destroyed so many fucking areas, like just blatantly in front of everybody, you know, broad daylight, just going so insane.
You're mocking An emergency, like a, like a literal disaster.
Uh, yeah.
So the right hand was like making fun of Florida strong or whatever.
And then I went to his profile and he retweeted Jack Posobio, Posobiec, complaining to Taylor Swift that, that Kamala Harris didn't go to Tennessee for the flooding that just happened.
That'd be so fucking funny.
multiple states wide like yeah that actually that would be fucked up if she did just show up just to help out where taylor swift's from and that's it that'd be so fucking funny um i just love like complaining about npcs like wanting to work together to help the devastation in their state or whatever going from that to then complaining about taylor swift not helping just like man
Incredibly pathetic stuff and just bizarre in general Uh, we got to move on from this topic, but just yeah, just like utter utterly Bewildered like the right is is dementing at a incredibly rapid pace It sucks too.
Cause like, you know, the, the Florida strong, those that build back by those type of like sentiments or things that people do say that can be a little bit corny, but they're said after moments of some sort of like, of some sort of something bad happening.
And it's done to like build like solidarity and community.
And they're like, these are NPC talking points.
You're just a misanthrope.
I'm sorry.
Like you're a misanthrope going like, you know, love is only just a chemical reaction in the brain.
Shut the fuck up, dude.
We all went to one year of community college, right?
And you know that fool owns a shirt that says, somewhere strong for some tragedy.
Yeah, and I don't know.
If you're concentrating on the slogan as corny and not the actual damage or the work that needs to be done, you're just a weirdo.
Yeah, you're a fucking weirdo.
weirdo you're a huge loser music plays
music plays
music plays moving on I want to talk about price gouging I want to talk about inflation versus price gouging.
You know, we're not going to actually debate anything here.
We're just going to point to multiple reports that have happened about private companies admitting to overcharging customers and then subsequently lowering their prices.
This is from Newsweek.
Kroger executive admits company gouged prices above inflation.
A top leader at Kroger has admitted during an antitrust trial that the company gouged prices on select items above inflation levels.
While testifying to a Federal Trade Commission attorney Tuesday, Kroger senior director for pricing Andy Groff said the grocery giant had raised prices for eggs and milk beyond inflation levels.
This is not at all surprising, Drew Powers, the founder of Illinois-based Powers Financial Group, told Newsweek.
Companies across multiple industries have been posting record profits since the COVID-19 crisis, while consumers have faced the highest inflation in recent history.
The math can only point to companies raising prices above the general level of inflation.
As the old saying goes, never let a good crisis go to waste.
Yeah, I don't know, like, I feel like anybody who's an adult at this point Has been to a store or has been to, you know, been to a website or something, you know, looking at staple goods and being like, this does not cost this much to produce.
This is like, this is, it's a, it's a sham.
Like any, I don't know.
First of all, that's like how, you know, they make money.
They make money by overcharging you.
That's how they make profit.
And as these companies are more beholden to shareholders, they can't simply just remain a functional company, remain a profitable and
You know, I don't know, like providing a service, you know, that, that, that kind of used to be the guiding force to owning a company, you know, instead now it's maximizing profit, maximizing shareholder return and not just like doing the best, not just like doing the best we possibly can, but just always doing more.
Yeah.
Right.
There is no best, you know, if you've hit a best, you're, you're dying.
And so, yeah, with modern corporations being run this way, obviously they're stealing money from us.
Obviously.
And like right now, it's great because they have a built in boogeyman.
Like, you know, there was a board meeting.
They were like, hey, I think we should we think we should use some price gouging.
Like, I don't know about that.
Like, guys, we can do it.
They're just going to put a Biden sticker next to it and say it's his fault.
They're not going to know it's us.
They literally don't understand how corporations work.
We can go buck wild.
And I will say, like on this Newsmax article, the number one response were like people like Christopher ATL who says, necessities like food, health insurance, dot, dot, dot, no different than utilities, right?
Like regulated water and electric should be monitored and regulated as well.
100% like, yeah, obviously things that people need to survive, just like water and power should be regulated as a public utility, as a public service.
You can have profit motive, you can have profit driving candy sales, or you can have like profitable fast food shit or whatever, but just normal food, just like, you know, meat, veggies, bread, all that stuff, like the store brand food should all be run by the government.
Should all be dictated and processed by the government.
I feel like at this point in time with the technology we have, the computing power we have, it should be fine to plan this shit.
It should be easy.
I don't understand how it would be any less or any more chaotic than the current system we have right now.
And it's funny too, because like, does, does he know that it's like, Hey, that's kind of what we mean by communism.
No, that's what I, yeah.
Do they know that?
Does he know that?
Yeah.
This guy's on our side.
Okay, good.
I would, I meant like the number one response to this is people saying, yeah, regulate the shit out of these fucking corporations.
What are we doing here?
Any intelligent society would say that, no, the, the, the CEOs and shareholders do not get to dictate what I can put in my fridge every month.
Yeah, absolutely.
That's just common sense that like I don't it's it's bizarre to even have an argument about it.
But of course on this show, we're going to see the arguments about it.
And this ties in with Kamala Harris is like proposed.
She's got to do grocery.
They're like investigating grocery store price fixing and they're going to have some sort of Legislation or some sort of policy that's going to Punish price gouging with food.
I don't believe that for a second.
I Think it would be a good policy to have I don't believe that it's actually gonna happen No, but you get the people on the right who have been complaining about inflation that's been like their number one complaint is about inflation and it's like Well, I understand that being a big deal.
I understand the cost of goods and services being a big deal.
But you've been like brainwashed into thinking, quote, inflation is the only thing that determines how much you're paying for those goods and service.
Yeah.
Like those are economic actors.
Those are, those are private entities making those decisions about how much you have to pay.
They don't like shake a magic eight ball and they're like, Mr. Economy, what should, how much, how much should the cereal be today?
They just try to squeeze as much as possible out of you as they can.
But yeah, when you, when you get into these discussions, Like Kamala Harris tweeted out, when I'm president, I will take on corporate landlords that unfairly raise rents on working families.
I can't tell you how many memes I've seen on the right wing about BlackRock, or Blackstone, whatever it's called.
The private equity firm that owns like, what, 30% of American housing or whatever it is right now.
That specific company, a corporate landlord, Is considered by the right wing to be part of the World Economic Forum, to be part of the WEF, to be part of the globalists.
And Kamala Harris can't even say, we're going to take the, we're going to take on the globalists that you guys won't shut the fuck up about.
We're going to take on corporate landlords and right wing accounts, the big accounts like Zero Hedge, who I think also runs a, like a conspiracy website, blog kind of, kind of thing.
His avatar is Tyler Durden shirtless He says great looking so good first food price controls now rent and housing Like they can't they can't have anything the right wing doesn't want anything good like it's it's really hard to like wrap my mind around What they actually want?
Well, no, you, I don't want them to do that because if they do that, then I won't be able to, uh, I won't be able to make money off my tick tocks where I do my grocery haul for my, my, uh, family of seven and how to feed them every night, you know?
And it's funny that she, cause she did have to say corporate landlords in order to avoid every party, every, everybody who's a temporary embarrassed landlord from pushing back.
It sucks.
It sucks about it.
She has to do that.
And it is still not good enough for them.
Well, I don't, I don't even think, I don't even think she believes in the corporate landlord thing.
Let alone a mom and pop landlord, like Democratic Party probably has like a statement affirming the rights of mom and pop landlords in the fucking slate, you know?
I don't think she's doing that necessarily for the right wing, but yeah, no, just like, I realize a lot of people on the right wing are right wing for material reasons and they are landlords or they are bosses or they are, you know, they do own these.
So yes, price controls on what they can charge, you know, would upset them or attacking landlords in general upsets them.
Most of these people are not fucking landlords.
They're just like, I don't know, miserable people who have been taught that there is no solution to their misery.
Yeah.
And so proposing a solution could only possible, could only possibly bring more misery.
That's like all that can happen is more misery.
Well, the solution, the solution to them is the free market.
One day they're going to be able to take advantage of the free market and that's the solution.
And you can't take that away.
You take that away when you start regulating, regulating prices for necessities and housing.
And it's like, shut the fuck up.
Yeah, it's just, and I think it's like, it's not just like radicalization politically.
They're like radical Republicans.
They're like radical, radicalized.
Along party, they're radicalized just purely from a party perspective.
It's like being a Raiders hater.
Like that's like, it's not even about really the solution.
It's just, you've been radicalized against this name brand, the democratic part, not for, not for no reasons.
You know, they have, the Democrats have not done much to uplift their own brand.
Um, And so you can see these conversations about, we need to get rid of Blackstone.
We need to get rid, like, you'll see this shit go viral on Facebook.
Corporations should not be allowed to buy housing.
And that'll have like a million likes on it.
But then the second you suggest, well, the Democrats want to ban corporations from buying housing.
Well now that's triggered my oppositional defiance to the Democrat brand or whatever.
And I have to say the most insane shit possible that contradicts all the more common sense stuff that I was just naturally agreeing with because it makes sense.
I liked this response.
Chuck says, the problem isn't capitalism.
It's corruption in our government.
We have elected officials who are easily bought off by the rich and powerful.
In return, those elected officials turn a blind eye to monopolies and pass laws that benefit corporations such as NAFTA.
Unfortunately, these same elected officials have become rich and powerful themselves.
God, how does that happen?
I don't know.
No, it's a mystery.
It's government.
Government makes them rich, you know?
And now control the media so they can lie to the American people and influence them into thinking the country will be in danger or destroyed if they vote for the wrong politicians.
And the problem is people aren't smart enough to realize they're being played by the same rich and powerful politicians they claim to be protecting the people from.
Whoa!
I think this guy has selected the correct enemy, which is not the right or the left or capitalism.
How badly are you defending Trump on every other forum?
Believing they're on opposite sides of the coin, when in fact they all want the same thing.
To line their own pockets and get rich off the backs of the taxpayers.
Like, I don't know how to describe, I don't, like, what do you think getting rich means?
Like, how do you, what do you think the system is that lets people get rich?
And it's funny because, like, everything they're saying here is correct except for, like you said, it's through the lens of blind opposition.
Because they clearly pretty much get it here, but you said it's just the motivation behind it is incorrect, and so therefore the real reasoning is not accurate.
They're saying all the right things just for the wrong reasons.
It's so sad.
Yeah, I mean, it's like they're there.
This is the crony capitalism argument.
That's, that's like what we're dealing with is that under, you know, a free market, the government wouldn't be able to help its friend.
The government wouldn't be able to like favor one person or one company or one corporation over the, over the other.
Because, because, because why?
Because why?
Yeah, what's going to stop that?
Like the only argument that would make that makes sense is, well, under a free market, capitalists would be banned from having friends.
It would be illegal for a capitalist to like anybody or want to engage in a mutually beneficial agreement with another entity.
We all know that that would be antithetical to the free market if capitalists were allowed to Come together and do things for each other that would benefit them over, say, the other classes or over, say, the consumer or over the tax.
Like, what are you talking about that you're going to be able to get the money out of politics if you're not getting the money out of politics?
The money is there.
Like, that's your ideology, man.
And capitalism Capitalism is going to serve who has the most money.
That's just what capitalism is.
Yeah.
And so when people get money, you're going to stop them from getting more money?
Well, that sounds like you're putting restrictions on the free market.
Under capitalism, money equals power, dude.
I don't know how to fucking more simply explain it to you.
You can't get the power away from people and let them keep the money.
It's almost like this thing you pledge your allegiance to is wrong.
It's the whole point in having money is that money is power.
I don't like, what are we, what are we doing here?
It's such a, it's such an asinine conversation.
Erica says, Grocers, like many other businesses, suffered huge losses during the pandemic that they are now trying to recover by increasing prices on products.
I was confused why my State Farm insurance rates went up until I received my prospectus via mail and took a moment to review it.
It showed that for the last two years, State Farm has had net losses in the hundreds of millions of dollars.
Are they wrong for trying to recover from those losses?
I noticed that my insurance went up.
Is my insurance wrong for charging me more?
No.
So cucked.
So fucking cucked.
And it's funny because like groceries were like the one of the few industries that were not hit like everything else because those were essential workers.
Grocery stores never really closed.
Some did, and it's because they found an opportunity to save money elsewhere.
Like anything that for the most part, that's what happened.
Grocers saw record profits throughout this whole thing.
Right now there were, uh, you know, the supply chain was broken down for a while.
So, you know, grocery stores might have not even had the specific products that they would have made money on or whatever.
So I could see, uh, them quote losing money in, in that respect.
Uh, but no, these are giant corporations.
It's still Profited as I were going back to this comment as I remember That's how businesses stay in business by offsetting past losses with current gain.
So like we've turned to we've turned from Joe Biden raised the price of oil by five dollars He should be you know, whatever strung up to sweetie.
Don't you know, that's how corporations make money.
They raise prices Hello, you think that should be they shouldn't be allowed to do that.
I Also just totally being okay with the concept of insurance being a business.
You know, it's like, Hey, listen, they gotta be a business somehow.
It's like what you've given them so much money and it's just so that you have money for an emergency and now you're just cool with them.
Like, Oh no, we need more now.
Just in case there's a bigger emergency later on because we've lost money.
So how do you lose money as an insurance company?
Like what do you, you, you got it, you're set.
And you don't.
You just can tell people you did and they're just going to believe you.
Amazing.
Keeping prices at inflation levels does not help with the billion-dollar loss sitting on the books from the last two years.
So we can't just raise prices to inflation because then we'll still have debt.
We need to charge everybody else even more than that so we can, whatever, rectify the bad decisions we made.
People who are angry and demanding more regulation don't seem to understand economics or even normal business strategy.
Imagine owning a business that lost a million dollars last year that nearly sunk your entire operation, and to try and keep yourself from sinking, you raise the prices on products your company sells this year.
And the government stepping in to say you're not allowed.
Yeah, sorry, no, you're not allowed.
We don't all have to pay more to feed ourselves and our family because you made a catastrophic boo-boo last year and lost a million dollars.
And it's like the underlying thing here, too, is these would not be issues if wages were keeping up with this other stuff.
But wages are not even keeping up with inflation, let alone the gouging.
Yeah.
Last comment that I thought was great.
Viking Vista says, well, this will certainly feed the confirmation bias of price illiterates.
Here are some additional facts.
1.
Aldi Albertsons Trader Joe's Walmart HEB Costco Whole Foods Safeway etc he's just name he just named stores this is his first fact I guess he means there's other stores means they exist the stores exist is one of the one of the facts first of all Kroger isn't the only grocery store I I don't know if they want, they didn't report this.
And it's like, well, actually other places like Axios have reported that Walmart, Target, Walgreens, Aldi, Ikea, Burger King, Starbucks, and McDonald's are all lowering their prices.
Yep.
Are all, are all cutting their prices because guess what?
They were, they raised them too high.
Yep, it's so funny.
He's not even going like, listen, you can buy in bulk and save.
Two, inflation is not the only thing that determines prices.
Oh, for real?
It's crazy.
Three, I put my used Xbox One on eBay for $3,500.
I'll let you know if I get any takers.
What?
Oh, okay.
I see what he's saying.
He's price gouging.
He's saying, he's saying capitalism is when you have an Xbox one.
Damn.
Imagine an Xbox one.
Now, could I sell that Xbox one for $3,500?
I mean, yeah, maybe you could if there were some sort of like run on the processors that Xbox ones were still being made with but you know, this is this is pretty old technology.
So yeah, probably not you can't probably can't charge.
Uh, you know, over 10 times what, uh, what it's worth.
No, that's true.
So therefore, number four, a Kroger executive can no more set prices with his sticker gun than a customer can by turning up her nose.
Uh, so his argument is it's, it doesn't make sense.
You couldn't charge 3,500 for an Xbox.
Therefore, grocery stores can't physically charge more than what a product is actually worth.
And it's like, brother, you better calm down before we are buying milk and eggs off of eBay.
Like it's just absurd to be like, I guess he's saying like, well, in the marketplace, you can you can boycott.
Grocery stores if they're too expensive.
Yeah, I'm gonna boycott the place where again.
I buy the stuff that I need to live Yeah, totally just go ahead and fuck it like econ 101 shit is food is an inelastic resource people do not Purchase, I mean they will eventually, but typically they gotta eat the same food no matter how much money they have or how much money it costs.
Yeah.
They cut back on other things, they can, you know, food is not a luxury good to be determined by the will of the market, you know.
Six, are the Kroger prices really too high?
How do you know other prices are not actually too low?
What is your standard for determining correct prices?
Dog!
This guy hates a deal.
This guy hates a deal.
Do not get addicted to food, my friends.
You will grow resentful of its absence.
It's funny, I see a lot of you complaining about prices and I don't see a lot of you doing extreme couponing.
I think that's on you.
Yeah, but every one of these motherfuckers will say that they have to do extreme couponing to survive under Biden's America, but please, for the love of God, do not do anything about it.
Listen, I don't trust Biden or Kamala Harris to correct the grocery store prices, but there is one entity I do trust, and that is the Anonymous Collective on Facebook.
Yes.
And we know how good they are at fixing English Premier League games.
I think we should ask the Anonymous Collective to fix grocery store prices too.
Honestly, I think they should also fix the weather while they're at it.
You know, I know they're busy taking down elites and stuff, but maybe they could have time to help like the regular Joe, like me or you, you know?
Yeah.
I think that would do a lot to engender some goodwill for them.
Yeah, honestly.
Just use your power for good, Anonymous.
Thank you.
I bet you would get, if you tried to comment that, I bet you would get people who were like, Listen, you can't dictate what Anonymous is going to do.
Anonymous goes where it needs, and I think Anonymous knows a little more than you about what you actually need.
Yeah, buddy.
It's like, you know, it's like trying to pray to God for presents, for gifts.
You can't do that.
You gotta have faith and anonymous.
You cannot petition the Facebook page with prayer.
No.
that shows you don't believe and that shows you don't deserve.
There's so much more than stuff.
But when you get home, get your back.
And dust it off.
But let me tell you now.
And open it up.
And I want you to breathe.
Yo.
See you later.
Anybody can do this, the only difference is I'm me.
All trophies from the past come attached to it.
Fresh out the oven, got the batch cooling.
Use a paddle in a lazy river, so I can keep the raft moving.
Figuring out how to approach this.
Vision blurry, I'm going in and out of focus.
Stars will shine and the sun will burn.
Put a head out on the winter, now it's the summer's turn.
No back and forth, the offer is a hundred firm.
The way I'm chewing, I know it makes your stomach turn.
Got everything on deck, I'm a convenience store.
Impressive, this type of run they never seen before.
They tellin' me relax, I'm tweakin' Toss me in the deep end, I had to swim without sinkin' Nothin' but net throws through the rim without blinkin' Made a mess in the kitchen, had the whole house stinkin' Now I'm jinglin' the dinner bell I crack your dorm open and throw away the chicken shell This is what you're gonna get from em' Revenge, puttin' names down on the paper, I got a list of em'
Moving on to our last topic here I think this is something that's like uniquely in our wheelhouse to address Tony And that is this Facebook video that was sent to me was posted in the Facebook group by Matthias Which I thought was a wonderful meme.
And so I'm going to play it for Tony, but what we're seeing on screen, I think there's audio to it.
So the listener will hopefully hear what's happening.
But the caption is when she comes home drunk from a girl's night out Right fellas You feel me?
You feel me?
I was trying to rack my brain if I've ever experienced this.
I feel like I have experienced a couple times where, you know, a girl I'm dating has hit me up from the bar or has come home drunk, begging for it, raw and wriggling.
What about you, Tony?
I mean, yeah, like I think it's It's like, I don't think it's like meme-worthy that if like your partner is partying, getting a little, you know, getting a little crazy with the girlies or whoever, they come home and they're excited to see you and they, you know, they, they want that good stuff.
They want it raw and wiggling.
You don't think that's meme-worthy?
I think that's fun.
I think that's a good positive meme.
We can help unite the sexes.
Girls, girls like to get drunk and horny.
Guys, guys like it when they fuck them.
I think this is a win-win meme here.
I think I think you're right.
Actually, I think you're absolutely right.
And yeah, it's I guess.
And they also look like Gollum when they when they come home.
Yeah, they're just a sex crazed maniac.
They've been reduced to their most base instincts, begging for their precious.
You know what I mean?
Mm hmm.
Mm hmm.
You feel me?
You feel me?
The ring to rule them all.
And it's and it's my cock ring.
Uh, I was fairly shocked to see the responses to this.
What I, again, what I, what I would say is a very wholesome, uh, correct meme, uh, which was a bunch of guys saying how it should be illegal for their girlfriends to go out on a girl's night period.
Healthy.
Like, you can't even, these guys, like, not to, you know, jump ahead, but these guys can't even, like, enjoy a meme about a girlfriend being horny for them.
That's like, that's like a trad meme.
Yeah.
Essentially.
But, uh, the responses were like this from Isaac, who says, no respectable woman is going on a girl's night if she is in a committed relationship.
Which is something I had never heard of.
I, you know, maybe I'm old fashioned.
It used to be okay for a girlfriend to have friends.
Yeah, back in my day, I thought it was pretty cool when my girlfriend had friends.
I thought that was like a nice thing, you know?
But I just can't.
I think it's just because like women are inherently whores is what's happening, right?
Is that what they're saying?
Oh, well, I think we can let them speak for themselves.
I'm not trying to I'm not trying to guess at their motives.
I think they'll maybe they'll let us know.
They'll reveal themselves in due time.
Yeah, I don't know.
You know, I think you'd like true.
I'd want this broad to get out of the house every once in a while.
I need to, you know, I need to watch sports.
I need to put my hand down into my waistband.
I need a fart.
Yeah, it's funny because I used to be like, you know, no, no respectable girlfriend has a friend that's a man.
And like that one, it sucks.
It's like not cool.
Um, but jealousy is a motherfucker.
And I, you know, I, I guess I can understand the headspace, but just getting mad at your girlfriend for hanging out with her friends, like her girlfriends.
That's, that's a bummer.
You're just, you just suck.
It's just bizarre because it, first of all, it's like, it's funny that we're talking about like hashtag girls night.
Like it's a real thing.
Yeah.
Like it's not just a new name for again, having, having friends, like, like what about a girl's night even entails that it it's going to be at the club or at a bar.
Like a girl's night could easily be, you know, watching fucking true crime, true, true crime, British mysteries.
And doesn't it also imply that it's just the girls?
Like shouldn't she be comfortable with that?
No, because women are weaker than men and therefore none of them will be able to physically restrain my girlfriend from leaping on a stranger the second she has a taste of alcohol in her mouth.
No, what it really is, is like they're worried that their girlfriends friends are going to talk about how weird you are about their in their story replies.
And like, you know, why are you always liking their photos and like sending flame emojis?
I was with my kid in that picture.
Why do you send a flame emoji?
What's what's wrong with you?
No respectable woman is entering a group chat if she is in a committed relationship.
Yeah, I need to be in all your group chats, actually.
No, but no committed woman is joining a private Facebook group to reveal abuse that she experienced at the hands of me and my friends Exactly Amazing.
Aiden Adam, Adam, Kiewicz.
Okay.
Okay.
Polish.
Remember everyone dot, dot, dot.
Having standards for your woman and pointing out stuff that's wrong is not quote, trust issues or quote, insecure.
It's you not have it's you having an understanding with your partner that no one should go out acting like they're single.
No one should be spelling there that way either.
You're, or you're, you're putting yourself out there to be hit on, especially if you dress a certain way.
So there we go.
That's amazing.
It's not even like, listen, you better not get hit on tonight.
No one better hit on you.
Hey, can you please wear the shirt that says, that has me on it, that has my face on it, that says like, my boyfriend's big and strong, you better stay away.
It seems like a lot of these comments are a lot of these guys worried about wasting other guys time.
Oh, it's not ready for everybody.
They're like, No, you're fucking it up for my homies who, who like, uh, they're going to get mad that they can't date you.
You know what I mean?
You shouldn't even like be in front of them because they're going to go crazy that they aren't, they aren't allowed to date you.
And that's that, that sucks for them.
Everyone knows you can't be in public unless you're single.
Everyone knows that if you're, if you're, if you're, if you're in public by yourself, you're telling the world that you're single and you probably want to fuck.
Not cool.
You're putting yourself out there to be hit on.
And it's like, so what?
So what if she's hit on?
Like either you don't trust her and you think she's going to find a better partner at a bar than you, you know, at a random girl's night.
Or you think that there should be like some law that if a woman is outside, you yourself get to hit on her.
Yep.
Yeah.
And I love this, especially if you just a certain way, because like every woman has a story of where they like tried to go out looking, looking on approachable, you know, wearing their dumpiest outfit, wearing your boyfriend's shirt and some sweatpants and not doing your hair.
And they're still getting a cat called like the dressing a certain way thing is part of your fantasy, bro.
Yeah.
I mean, we've seen the substance you get hit on no matter what you look like.
Did you see the substance?
No, I haven't seen yet, but I heard that part of it is us trying to believe that she's not hot, right?
She ages out of her career, but it's not that you think she's not hot.
It's that her shitty, abusive producer thinks she's not hot, and so kicks her out of her own show.
Wow.
Played by Dennis Quaid.
Wow.
Dance Quay does have crazy standards, though.
I have heard that.
I thought he was good in Reagan.
He's amazing in this.
Honestly, though, very, very funny.
I've heard good things.
Fun movie.
See it with crowded theater, if you can.
Oh, cool.
Robin says women with unlimited buzzwords trying to justify going to a spot where people look for quote companionship Where it is accepted that everyone goes there is free milk laughing crying emoji So let me translate this for everybody.
He's saying that girls night is is a buzzword to try and cover up the fact that she's going to an auction house where she will be sold.
Yeah.
For free though.
For free.
She'll be giving out of the milk instead of having you buy the cow.
Where it is accepted that everyone that goes there is free milk.
No, that's not accepted.
It's not accepted.
You need to talk to a fucking therapist.
You need to voluntarily commit yourself to an asylum if you think that's what being in public at a club means.
I literally had to talk to a regular last night who was like lamenting to me.
He's like, man, these girls come out here and they're like always like flirting with you, huh?
I'm like, they're just nice people.
He's like, man, you know, cause I come out here, I'm trying to find somebody.
I'm like, dude, you need to not do that.
You need to come out just to have some fun and like maybe hang out with your friends.
Like you can't, you can't go out with the expectation of bringing someone home.
That's like not healthy.
He's like, no, that's like why, that's like why, That's why it's why people come out, right?
I mean, no, dude, people come out to hang out with their friends and have a nice time.
Just enjoy a drink by themselves, even like that is not the implication of the existence of a bar.
You got to stop doing that.
Yeah, I feel like most people are open to the idea of meeting someone at the bar, but they're not like desperate for it.
They're not going to a bar to specifically wait for an anxious weirdo to come up and talk to them.
Yeah, and I hate to tell you this, bud, but at the end of the day, if they are looking for that, it's not you.
It's not you.
The guy who they're watching bounce around the bar trying to talk to every single woman there, just getting turned down left and right because they're just hanging out with their friends, they're not looking for you, bud.
You gotta go to different bars where they haven't seen you before, where your picture is not up above the mirror.
Where all their friends have a story about you being weird to them.
You gotta stop going there.
Or just go there to hang out.
Stop being weird.
Trinity says, yeah, no girls night unless I can bring him.
Not doing something like that to make him uncomfortable.
Your friends hate you.
All your friends hate you and they really hate your boyfriend.
And that's why you don't get invited out anymore.
Like why?
Yeah.
Why?
How do you have friends?
When did you?
Are they purely online friends?
Do you not ever see them because it?
Oh, you can have you can do girls afternoon.
That's all right.
Yeah.
Once the fucking streetlights come on, you're coming home.
And by the way, brunch is out of the question to no brunch.
Just afternoon.
I fucking know what happens at brunch.
Oh, my God.
So you're going out for coffee and that's it.
Yeah, I'm imagining a guy that doesn't like girls night because he thinks when that's when they all les out.
Yeah, exactly.
I know what happens at girls night.
I've seen enough videos online to know.
How am I supposed to compete with another woman?
They actually have a vagina.
They know what to do with it.
I don't allow my girl out because I know she's going to get into the seed oils.
And she'll be leaving stains on the chairs and sofas for weeks.
Not cool.
Not cool.
Yeah, really.
I know what alcohol does.
I know what alcohol does to her as her go right to the saturated fats.
You've been eating processed foods again, haven't you?
I fucking knew it.
Did you cook?
Did you cook your meat last night?
You fucking cook your beef, didn't you?
I could smell it all over you.
Um, I loved this one.
Mason Dean says, y'all be dating women going to girls nights.
That ain't your girl.
And then no, she, uh, she belongs to the night now.
Yep.
Yep.
She's not yours.
Nope.
Nope.
Sorry.
Your friend, your girlfriend has friends.
What a slut.
She's a bride of the government now.
If you let your girl go out to girls night, she's a bride of the state.
Congratulations.
Yeah, basically.
You got cucked by 600 million people.
This guy's name, I thought it was Joseph Perez, but it's Jessif.
Jessif?
Jessif.
Jessif Perez.
Sounds like you're saying Joseph with like a sneer.
Right?
Sounds like you're a valley girl.
Jessif.
Jessif.
Jessif says she's not allowed to go do that.
Which is kind of really in line with his profile pic.
Who is Joe Cool.
And that is kind of the coolest thing I can imagine.
Banning your girlfriend from having friends because you're so worried she's going to fuck another person.
Yeah, I don't want to be a gatekeeper, but we got to stop letting people use Snoopy.
You know, that's not cool, because I have a feeling that Snoopy would have a very, very healthy relationship with their partner and, you know, like, let them have friends.
Me going up to the TV, which is kind of like malfunctioning and static and like I hit it with my fist and it and it corrects, you know, the image comes back on and I go a and then it zooms out to reveal that I've chained my girlfriend to a radiator in front of the TV.
Yeah.
While I go shopping or something like that.
But now she gets to watch her stories because I'm so cool.
John G Willikers says she's allowed to stay in the house and die there.
That's it lmao.
That's sarcasm by the way and Jessup says shut up cock.
I was like, wait, cock like he's really literally identifying the fear that is actually going on in this comment section.
That's interesting.
And then somebody else replied.
You sound like this and it's a guy like like freaking out with all his veins bulging and Jessup replies and you look like this cock.
And then he's got a, he's got a meme of a Wojak sitting in a cuck chair while his girlfriend says, are you sure?
With another man.
And he says, yes.
So it's like you didn't have to you didn't have to post this.
I'll just say because it everybody already knew that this is you have this image on why do you it's not even funny.
Are you sure?
Yes, like it's not even no the guy isn't even crying in the meme.
He's just like looking eager for the cooking and what's funny is yeah, you're like you're doing an on the honest like real translation and cook which is like consenting adults.
Like, doing something that they're both agreeing upon and both enjoying?
It's like, it kinda takes away from it.
Uh, yeah, but it's fucking gross, dude.
Oh man, your partner satisfies your kinks?
No, that's gross.
But again, it's like gay marriage.
Thinking about the possibility of other women having sex with other men makes me think about my girlfriend having sex with other men, and that's why it shouldn't be allowed.
It should be illegal because it's actually devaluing my marriage.
It's actually put a huge strain on my marriage, which is technically not a marriage anymore, legally speaking.
All because of these fucking cucks.
Jessive and his partner are like having sex and she's like, babe, are you okay?
You like, don't seem like you're in this.
Are you like, what's wrong?
And he's like, I just can't stop thinking about girls night.
You didn't get back till 1130.
You say you were going to be back at 11.
You didn't get back till 11.
I don't care about how long the Uber took.
And I just can't stop thinking about how you were probably getting railed the entire time.
Uh, it's all I think about.
Like, you know, Samantha has those nice hands and those fingers, like hands I'm talking about.
And that's all I'm thinking about is those fingers.
Uh, yeah.
Anyway, so that's girls night.
I think we, we kind of cracked it.
We kind of debunked it.
Uh, it's no good, no good, no good.
Yeah.
Don't, don't do girls night, but you know what?
Don't give up your Saturdays for the boys either.
Saturdays are still for the boys, but no girls night.

Yeah, they're actually good for, uh, they can be good for the environment and good for the, you know, your, your local ephemera.
