Mentos in Coca-Cola
First of all, John Cena. I would climb that mountain of deliciousness in a heartbeat. Yum beefcake.
Double yum: beefcake with a sense of humor.
Second, conspiracy theories. Infidel was talking (much more coherently) about them, and then I watched John Oliver (love him!) give us a trip across the crazy. It is flabbergasting. The stupid things people believe without any questions is absolutely CRAY-CRAY. I'm sure you know all about flat earthers and the moon landing and all that. Those are old staples of stupidity. But in the age of COVID-19 that shit is crazy and dangerous. As in deadly. Like the new one about the African doctor who believes in Demon sperm.
“For some reason the internet wanted to take them down and took them off,” Trump said of Frontline Doctors, adding that they were “very respected doctors.”— The Daily Beast (@thedailybeast) July 29, 2020
Trump then described Immanuel as "spectacular" in her statements about hydroxychloroquine. https://t.co/W1TJZ5YpDe
When you have the president of the United States peddling conspiracy theories in social media under the guise of 'information' (here's Michael's take on that) you know some astonishingly dumb people are going to fall for them. Well, they are also possibly racist and bigoted and xenophobic, but there's nothing you can do about that. In the age of misinformation and helped by Russian bots, these ideas burn through Twitter, Facebook and Instagram like wildfire.

I'm sure you may have a family member/friend/acquaintance who believes all kinds of crazy shit. In case you have a bigot in your midst (sorry, honey!) I have the perfect ice breaker for you to show them and guide them to the light. Last Week Tonight created some PSAs to help you convince your loved one that no, there is no demon sperm available, that hydroxychloroquine is not the cure for COVID-19 and that Alex Jones is not a nice shirtless man who just screams too much.
There's the one with John Cena (who could convince me me of most anything for at least an afternoon) to introduce the topic to your Repug college friend, the one with Alex Trebek (for your crazy aunt Hilda) and the one with Billy Porter (if you happen to have the disgrace of having a Log Cabinette as a friend). There. All bases are covered.

And you can go here to find some others, depending on how clueless your Fox News victims are and their backgrounds. Because they can have a MENSA membership and still be as stupid as Donal Trump Jr.
XOXO
P.S. Here’s, the whole segment by Oliver:

I loved John Cena in Trainwreck. And I love his sense of humor. But physically? Meh. He doesn't do a lot for me. But he's very charming. (and has a great ass) I avoid engaging with people who believe stupid shit. I simply don't have the energy for them. The most I will do is tell them they need to educate themselves. This latest round of crazy from the orange ogre? SMH. Desperation? It's like he's drowning in his own crap-filled toilet. And yet, the diehards will believe anything because they simply refuse to admit that they were wrong about him. I really hope sanity is restored in November.
ReplyDeleteOMG he was HYSTERICAL. Who knew?
DeleteAnd for me, a man has got to have a sense of humor to be attractive. The most magnificent specimen could materialize in front of me, and I would not let him hit it if there's not more to him than looks. And I like big bruisers, so maybe that's a factor here? LOL
As for the stupid, sometimes I do try. Not often, but I try.
XOXO
It’s sad when “comedy” is the place for trusted news. Night after night I watch the previous day’s episodes from Trevor Noah, Stephen Colbert and Samantha Bee.
ReplyDeleteAnd I’ll bring the popcorn when you meet up with Mr. Cena. I’ll take sloppy seconds. 😜
XOXO 👨❤️💋👨
Totally agree on trusted news sources.
DeleteWell, it's been like that for awhile. Late night show hosts have led the way in politics and government for years. Remember John Stewart?
DeleteAnd you kink cum any time, bae.
XOXO
Thank you, I needed that,
ReplyDeleteHa!
DeleteYou're welcome. It's been madness, huh?
XOXO
Uh,....Now tRUMP is promoting and wanting his cult to follow recommendations from Root Doctors! Wonder if chicken blood is next? And tell John Cena to stop waxing. Hairy chests are in.
ReplyDeleteCheeto has asked his followers to do all kinds of crazy shit. More should follow his advice. Natural selection, you know?
DeleteAnd I don't know if Cena is hairy... now I'm going to have to go do some research...
XOXO
Honestly I'm speechless. The reptilian sperm is as nice as ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteIt's beyond crazy.
DeleteSeriously, America is a parody of a parody of a parody.
XOXO
Don't get sad! Italy ten years ago was in the same situation!
DeleteI second uptonking; cena doesn't ring my chimes. and I avoid teh stoopid, except teh stoopid is breeding faster than the smarts. and did you see MADGE is buying into this phony MD's bullshit?
ReplyDeleteOMG Anne Marie I did!
DeleteMadge can put her foot in her mouth very accurately.
She does the 'fight the power' schtick and she can be misleading. Annie Lennox called her bullshit. I was here for it.
XOXO
John Cena.
ReplyDeleteYes puhlease. Hot. Built like a brick house. Smart. Compassionate, LGBTQ friendly. An ass for days.
But I cannot with Demon Sperm Lady.
I know right?
DeleteI have this thing for big men with tender hearts. I want to lick them all over.
And the Demon Sperm Lady is CRAZY. And there's people who believe her. There's people who believe her EVERY WORD.
We're doomed.
XOXO
Love all those PSAs! I watched the Paul Rudd one and the Catherine O'Hara one too at your link -- hilarious! "You have the look of a scholar and the taste of a macaron"
ReplyDeletePaul Rudd needs to be cloned.
DeleteAnd Catherine O'Hara is a national treasure!!!!!
XOXO
We watched and loved it! The clips are hilarious, as sad as it may be that we even need them! Demon Sperm cracked me up - the Trumps are either really, really stupid (my belief) or they do this stuff just to see the reaction they'll get. I DO have an acquaintance who actually believes these doctors. You can fix stupid so I told her if she believed a handful of "doctors" over the expertise of thousands more, then she should go ahead and take that miracle cure : "what have you got to lose?" I stated. XoXo
ReplyDeleteP.S. The more of his sheeple buy into this shit, the faster their numbers will fall. Cruel of me? I suppose.
Isn't that sad?
DeleteThat we need PSAs for the chronically stupid? And IMPOTUS and his spawn do it to divert attention. They are corrupt motherfuckers.
And I agree, all the trumpanzees should go and try Cheeto's cures. ALL OF THEM.
You can come and sit by me. We'll watch together.
XOXO
SMOOCHES!!!
DeleteOf course there is demon sperm y'all. How do you think trump got here!?!?!?
ReplyDeleteJust a shame his mother was a vanilla prude and didn't swallow.
LMAOOOO
Delete*Barf*
LMAOOOOO
oh, Maddie.
John's a nice, guy, nice skin, would look a bit better with a rug of hair on his chest, and he did hit the nail on the head, didn't he?
ReplyDeleteOh, yes.
DeleteHe's NICE. And I don't mind the smooth chest. I do like hair in men, natch.
And yes, he did. He indeed did.
XOXO
Look. If John Cena has to strip down for his video I don't understand why Alex Trebek doesn't.
ReplyDeleteOh. My. Dog.
DeleteLurkie!!! Where have you been?
And I understand there's a B-reel tape of Alex dancing to Pony while he disrobes. Gotta find it.
XOXO
