Karen, I’m also over 40 and an aspiring rapper, you have heard about my future killer tracks. But I’m not putting all my eggs into the rap basket and keeping my day job.
There’s a little more to that Nicki Minaj challenge because I knew it would be a matter of time before someone got hurt. Not only are the people balancing their entire body weight on the ball of one foot, they are balancing on ridiculously tiny areas like on top of tiny boxes, someone did it on top of a soda can, someone did it on a street sign. I saw a ballerina do it on point. So that Russian influencer was a new mother and not only was she trying to balance on top of her kitchen counter she was trying to balance on top of a baby formula can. Of course she was bound to bust her ass. That’s just crazy because Nicki did her challenge on solid ground.
You can tell me that Aubrey Graham didn’t cancel his tour because he wasn’t selling out the venues. I don’t think his ego would have taken the extra humiliation. And I’m sure he’s now in his feelings because Kendrick’s Super Bowl performance has now been nominated for an Emmy. This may be the biggest L in music history.
I can do the challenge on solid ground thanks to yoga, but wouldn’t try it somewhere dangerous because I enjoy staying alive.
See, that’s why you aren’t part of the TikTok generation… Likes over lives!
I hope I didn’t mess up my HTML for this post…
I consider my graphic t-shirts as great conversation starters. Everyone knows I love Attack on Titan way too much, so conversation is sparked when other Nerds see my anime/sci-fi/Transformers/pop culture fit. I love wearing my TBGWT Bob’s Burger shirt and folks to do ask what’s up the Black Bob’s Burgers characters. I simply mention this is the podcast I love listening to and they should too!
Regarding the poll question, not only no, but hell no! I don’t like when random people talk to me, period.
Comment on the show 2,
How long until the verb, to DOGE, has a broadening of meaning from unlawful firing to simply fucking up. “He really DOGEd that layup there…” “If you have any questions, don’t ask Johnson, he’s a real DOGE. I think his uncle is on the board or something…”
Comment on the show 1,
DOGE claims to have saved 180b dollars, they have actual receipts for about a quarter of that. But, based on my back of the envelope calculation, those savings will likely cost America up to 1.8 quadrillion dollars in damage, deaths, economic decline, and weakening of our international diplomatic position… I may be slightly off, but I can guarantee my numbers are more accurate than DOGE’s…
I had two comments in my head for this show after getting home from my midnight walk, but then I saw that the Japanese Superman, Dean Cain, whose grandparents were in concentration camps in the US during WWII, is joining the Brownshirts aka ICE. I guess, only in America can people survive a concentration camp only to see their grandson put other innocent people into concentration camps or worse…
Oh btw it’s thanks to ya’ll that I got on Patreon to support others, I didn’t pay attention back in the beginning when I first joined TBGWT Nation, then after you had 3GO as guests I decided to once & for all support all in one moment. Spent hours searching for TBGWT on Patreon and was wondering why I couldn’t find it after finding the all the podcasts that you guys introduced me to. Later as it’s written in the wise books I “shined my eyes” and was like ooops… and went premium the right way. It worked out, so thanks for introducing me to Patreon years ago.
In Karen’s defense, my mind was also on Lil Boosie too. Now I’m sure that seeing the episode title first before playing didn’t help when you got to that story, so worry not Karen, as Michael Jackson once said You Are Not Alone (chorus only).
Btw bout the firing and rehiring by the genius in chief. One of my military sources in California had revealed how when DOGE came to their top secret facility, they tried to get rid of people in the 20 – 40 + years experience most of whom had Top Secret clearances. Some said “fine I’m out” others fought (this was over 3 months ago). They replaced the fired folks with 19-20 year old kids (way cheaper right?) Only problem is that there’s usually a handover, person living shows you the ins and out of the systems you’re taking over. 19 year old could be a genius, 40 year experienced in a government system that knows their shit can set traps every where and waste that 19 years old time = money wasted. They started reaching out to fired folks in time but like Karen pointed out, why return back when you now have leverage? Insert Tobey Maguire “Show Me The Money” entering negotiations cause DOGE Dummies in trying to make a noise, also alerted world intelligence agencies and everyone has been throwing money at fired Americans to switch teams. The cost gonna be astronomical when we add 300k black women, damaged research, stopped programs, and a lot more including fired and rehired federal workers.
The laugh I let out at work when I realized Karen thought bootsy collins was Lil Boosie. Karen is Barbara Howard’ing like she never Barbara Howard’ed before. Lol
