Wow. Just wow. First of all, let me begin by saying, there is no end to the jokes I want to make here. However, I’m going to attempt to keep it classy. Way back in the ’70s and ’80s, Burger King’s slogan was “Have it your way”. Guess they still mean that. Except I think in this case they are extending that offer WAY beyond a bad fast food sandwich. No offense Whopper, but I’m a Quarter Pounder with Cheese guy myself. Still, in a shameless effort to pander to the LGBTQ community, Burger King in Austria has come up…

Doctor Anthony Fauci and his ghouls at the NIH are at it again. This time instead of botching coronavirus or funding gain-of-function research at Wuhan, they are up to something way more insidious and heartbreaking. Who doesn’t love a puppy? They are sweet, smell good, have floppy ears, and give the best kisses. Well, apparently the mad scientists at the NIH don’t! According to the Washington Free Beacon: The National Institutes of Health is facing a congressional investigation for conducting a slate of “invasive, painful, and potentially deadly procedures” on puppies as young as six months old—all at taxpayers’ expense.…
In case anyone hasn’t noticed, June is Pride month! Of course, it’s impossible NOT to notice, since we are under a constant barrage of reminders. Seems we have to have at least a month for everyone now. Well, almost everyone. Everywhere you look, from television to movies, music, the internet, and even driving down the street we are constantly reminded. If aliens landed today, they would logically assume our species is primarily gay. My assumption would be they would get back on their ships and bounce, but who knows? Aliens might be politically correct. Even sports have been infected by…
Nothing changes the world like a good, old-fashioned protest! Picket signs, handbills, bull horns, and petitions, always get things done! Just kidding actually. Protesting is mostly just for the sake of protesting. My belief is most protests are self-indulgent displays meant to make people feel better about themselves. Perhaps a small core group actually cares, but many of the other protesters are just along for the party. The women’s march in 2016 was a prime example. I knew numerous women that didn’t care at all about the reasons, rather they were just going for the girls’ weekend. That’s fine. Whatever…
I hated Baywatch. There, I said it! Stop reading now if you must, but I just couldn’t do it! (Don’t stop reading). Too me, the idea of a bunch of beautiful, sexy, tanned Los Angeles lifeguards and their super dangerous job and glamorous lives just didn’t ring authentic. I guess I was wrong. Apparently, Los Angeles County lifeguards are swimming in cash much like Scrooge McDuck. Per The Federalist: Lifeguards in Los Angeles are floating on cash. Of the thousand-plus lifeguards employed by the county in 2021, 103 earned more than $100,000 including benefits and eight earned six figures in…
Let’s add another chapter to the “mess with the bull, get the horns” book in the great state of Florida. After Disney decided to dance with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, and lost in dramatic fashion, you’d think entities, corporations, etc would get a clue as to how to stay in the Florida governors good graces. Guess not. Here’s the story per Fox News: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis plans to veto a $35 million legislation for a Pasco County facility that’s earmarked for the Tampa Bay Rays’ spring training, OutKick has learned. DeSantis’s decision is in response to the Rays politicizing…
How many times have we seen this scenario? Person of color shot by police, social media does what it does and works the race baiters into a frenzy, and next thing you know the city is on fire. Anyone remember 2020? How could we forget. Dating back as far as Ferguson, false narratives, dubious eyewitness accounts and misinformation (I hate that term) on social media have led to widespread destruction and sometime violence and death. Hopefully, regarding a recent police shooting in Kansas City, the body cam footage made a difference and spared millions of dollars in damages. Here’s the…
Here we go again! Just like a bad case of athletes foot, or jock itch, or wokeness, Megan Rapinoe just won’t go away! No matter how much attention she gets! Recently Rapinoe took time from her busy schedule of hating America, being mediocre at soccer, and being a general pain in the ass to focus her unwanted attention on a new subject! Oh fun! What’s the story? What’s Megan fussing about now? What slight, real or perceived, is on her radar? According to Outkick: Megan Rapinoe has a new complaint. Now that the U.S. Women’s National Team is receiving the…
It’s always disturbing to read reports of American jobs potentially leaving America, especially with a company as American as John Deere. Or at least a company that WAS as American as John Deere. I guess the grass next door is green after all. The catch phrase “Nothing Runs Like a Deere” was the companies tag line for years. We didn’t realize they meant run to Mexico. https://twitter.com/donraptor3/status/1532471206879846407?s=21 What’s the story? Per Breitbart: John Deere has confirmed it will move part of its Tractor and Cab Assembly Operations facility in Waterloo, Iowa, to Mexico by the 2024 fiscal year. While the…
The Tulsa hospital shootings were incredibly tragic. A crazed gunman shot his surgeon and three others, frustrated by an unsuccessful back surgery. Unbelievably tragic. Also, it’s unfortunate that it followed on the heels of the Buffalo shootings and the Uvalde school massacre. It is unfortunate because it piles on the narrative that America is a nation full of armed crazy people trying to shoot up anything in sight. https://twitter.com/calebjhull/status/1532422759757774848?s=21 Also, it helps to fuel the leftist narrative that “guns are bad” and have to be banned, despite no actual guns firing themselves in any of these instances. Folks, these are…
Is anyone else feeling better about the direction of our country? I know I sure am! Mass shootings, record-high inflation, record-high gas prices, strained relations with nuclear superpowers, popcorn shortage, yet America is moving in the right direction! If you recall, last week after the horrible mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas, perpetrated by a crazed, single gunman, San Francisco Giants manager and lefty loon Gabe Kapler decided to take the brave stance of staying in the dugout during the national anthem until he “felt better about the direction of ur country”. Guess he feels better! Let’s see what the Washington…
It is really nice to have some things feeling normal after two years of pandemic-related madness. Bars, restaurants, concerts, sporting events, I’ve been back to all of those things for some time. However, the one activity I haven’t returned to post-pandemic? The movies. I have yet to be back in a movie theater since pre-2020. Shocking to me, because I love the movies. It’s not pandemic-related fears; I’ve honestly never given much thought to Covid. I just lived my life and went where the local “authorities” would allow open. Plus, with streaming being so easy and convenient, there was really…
I love Fleetwood Mac. Part of the soundtrack of my youth. When Stevie Nicks would twirl around on the television with that long blonde hair flowing, well, it was a lot easier then to know whether you were a boy or girl apparently than it is now. While Fleetwood Mac and Stevie Nicks are past their recording prime and well into their senior years, Nicks particularly is a respected voice in the industry. That still doesn’t mean I won’t point out when she has ridiculous ideas and says silly things. That’s just my job. What’s the story? According to Billboard.com:…
It’s happening. Little by little, brave men and women are standing up to the woke mob, and people are paying attention. It seems ludicrous that anyone should have to say biological men shouldn’t be competing with biological women, but it’s 2022 America, the libs are in charge, and here we are. Strange days, indeed. However, one brave former Olympic gold medalist swimmer and women’s activist is finally saying ‘enough! Out of the pool!’ According to Outkick: Women’s rights advocate and three-time Olympic champ Nancy Hogshead is making waves over her opposition to Penn transgender swimmer Lia Thomas’ record of sabotaging…
So full disclosure, the desire to make jokes here is almost overwhelming. Such low-hanging fruit, pun intended. Now I realize Mattel doesn’t intend a $50.00 Plus Barbie to be played with by kids and thrown in a storage tote. This doll isn’t for kids. Also, if you buy this for your kids, you clearly have more money than sense, so email me, and I will give you my mailing address to help with that money-to-sense ratio. No, this doll is a collector’s item. Let me give you some context. Per Breitbart: Mattel recently launched a new transgender Barbie doll to…
News flash: summer is hot. Hot all over. Even in the northernmost reaches of the lower 48, it can get brutal in the summer. In larger, more densely populated areas like New York City, blackouts and “brownouts” were the norm in the 1970s and 1980s. Like so many things from these decades, like vinyl albums, bell bottoms, high inflation, soaring prices, and food shortages, hey, I didn’t say everything from the 80s was good; the Biden administration is bringing back rolling power outages! Yay summer! According to Bloomberg.com: A vast swath of North America from the Great Lakes to the…
Sadly, not even a week after the tragedy in Texas, a 10-year-old Florida student decided it was a good idea to threaten a copycat type of attack on his elementary school. Perhaps he didn’t think he would get into trouble, but he “f’ed around and found out”. The hard way. According to Fox News: A Florida sheriff is speaking out after a 10-year-old was arrested for threatening a mass shooting at his school, just days after 19 children and two teachers were killed in the Uvalde massacre. Lee County Sheriff Carmine Marceno joined “Fox & Friends” Tuesday, warning “parents are…
How was YOUR Memorial Day cookout? Did anyone burn down the backyard? Too many neighbors pop over because they smelled what was wafting from your grill? The summer cookout is an American tradition, and despite the clown show in the White House, that tradition will continue. Americans simply aren’t willing to eschew such cherished traditions. So how’s it looking out there? Are those prices starting to decrease, or is inflation still chewing on your wallet like a naughty dog with a slipper? https://twitter.com/rockett1981/status/1531394851400564737?s=21 According to the New York Post: Americans enjoying their barbecues during the unofficial start of summer this…
Let me be clear right from the start. I have NEVER seen a single Harry Potter movie. Not a minute of one. In fact, I don’t even know how many movies there are. Too many, probably. I’ve no idea how many books there are, either. Wizards, magic, all that stuff just isn’t my bag. Plus, when something becomes so culturally pervasive, it’s literally everywhere; generally, I tune out. Game of Thrones? Nope. The Sopranos? Nope. Breaking Bad? Negative. I’m sure I have missed out on a lot. Maybe not. However, what DOES interest me is when the liberal left attacks…
After all the bad news recently; mass shootings, prices at the pump, conflict in Europe, and a doddering old fool in the White House, it certainly is good to have something to laugh at! Of all the people to make us snicker, guffaw, titter, chuckle, or snort with outright laughter, it’s Alec Baldwin! You remember Alec Baldwin. Brother to the much more handsome, talented Stephen Baldwin? Once upon a time, kids, Alec Baldwin was funny! No, I’m not talking about the cringe, pandering impressions on Saturday Night Live of our last great President, Donald Trump. Nope, only a true mental…
Sometimes the good guys win! Even in 2022 America. The victories sometimes seem few and far between, but slow progress is being made. As a result, W’s are being stacked, and woke companies are feeling the heat. It’s possible, but consumers have to hold these companies responsible, and we must take them to task with our dollars. If we all pay attention and act, change is possible. So what’s the latest W? Check this out from Fox News: State Farm quickly distanced itself from a program that pushed books about gender fluidity on young children Monday after a new ad…
The court case that has all of America’s mostly undivided attention, Depp V Heard, rolled on recently with a key character witness for Depp coming forward. Kate Moss, model and former girlfriend of Captain Jack, testified regarding accusations that Depp abused her back in the 90s. According to Outkick: Heard had previously stated when detailing an altercation on a staircase between Depp and her sister Whitney Henriquez that she recalled a rumor in which Depp did the same to then-girlfriend, Kate Moss. Heard used the rumor as an excuse for striking Depp in the face — she claims Depp was…
Full disclosure. I love the NFL. I watch it. I attend games, and I write about it. It dominates my life from August until February. I like it that way. However, I am also fair and will call B.S. when I see it. Guess the NFL’s phone should be ringing about now. Indeed the entire country knows of the tragedy that took place in Texas on Tuesday. So it’s hard not to be affected, even if you weren’t directly impacted. For myself, I have mostly avoided the news cycle today. First, it’s just plain depressing, and secondly, I knew the…
For full disclosure, I’ve never been to Disney. Yes, I have kids, four adult kids at this point, but they NEVER expressed an interest in going. Perhaps the fact that we generally didn’t watch a whole lot of Disney content when they were kids? Maybe, I had a sense of how Disney was trending content when my kiddos were little. The movies, etc., just weren’t their thing. Ours was more of a Nickelodeon, Rugrats, Sponge Bob house. My kids liked it that way. So did the adults. Growing up in what was the golden age of Disney, we didn’t like…
Can’t people take responsibility for their actions, crazy as they (actions) might be? How refreshing would it be for someone to come right out and say, “yep, I did it. Don’t regret it a bit”? Obviously, that would blow any legal defense; I’m not an idiot, but I’m just saying a lot of us would have more respect for would-be criminals. Just own your actions! You’ll recall controversial, hilarious comedian Dave Chappelle was bum-rushed and attacked on stage back on May 3rd during his set at the Hollywood Bowl. His attacker is now shedding light on what he claims were…
It’s been a huge bone of contention in the United States over the last couple of years that fast-food workers should all be making at least 15.00 an hour. Regardless of where you fall on this argument, workers at a particular KFC in Memphis, Tennessee deserve a raise, or at very least a free “family bucket” each. What happened? Per Outkick: KFC workers at a Memphis store should be hailed as heroes after the service they performed Saturday when a woman passed workers a note “begging for help,” according to the Memphis Police Department. Nice work! Considering the nonsense fast-food…
Saturday Night Live, once a cultural phenomenon that in recent years has turned into a leftist freak show compromised of unfunny, often mean political skits, could be losing its most “famous” cast member. Despite his high-profile romances with Ariana Grande and at least one of the vapid Kardashian girls, Pete Davidson, arguably the ugliest man on television, is rumored to be leaving the long-running, formerly funny late-night show after the season finale. https://twitter.com/chillyprimates/status/1526391831994540032?s=21 According to comicbook.com: Pete Davidson may be nearing the end of his run on Saturday Night Live. Variety reports Davidson is “expected to leave Saturday Night Live…
So Twitter is basically the equivalent of a foreclosed house that the previous “owner” hasn’t moved out of yet. Instead of just packing their stuff and leaving, they are going to go out with a bang and trash the place. Twitter’s latest effort to continue burning down the house is to flag and censor more content in “times of crisis.” Now, what the hell constitutes a time of crisis? If you’ve tried to fill your car up lately or get groceries, you may consider right now a time of crisis. I’d argue the entire Biden administration has been a time…
It’s become a way to a familiar refrain. Democrat-run city, violence, bloodshed, lawlessness, and ultimately a call from city “leaders” for gun control. Unfortunately, it sounds as if the only people controlling the guns in many of these cities are the criminals. If you live, work, or have loved ones in some of these cities, the level of anxiety for your, or their safety never goes away. What happened? Per Fox News: Two people were killed and eight others were injured in a shooting in downtown Chicago late Thursday night, according to Chicago police. The shooting happened around 10:40 p.m.…
Just because Australia is an island, doesn’t mean it’s isolated. Covid found Australia, and now another dreaded virus is infiltrating the land down under. Left wokeness. Crikey! It’s time to high tail it to the outback and hang out with Crocodile Dundee! So what’s the story here? Apparently the phenomena of transgendered men, competing as women has taken hold in the Southern Hemisphere. Opposite seasons, toilets flushing backwards, and dudes competing as chicks. Just another day for Australia! https://twitter.com/plunkingotter/status/1527176513648529408?s=21 Here are the details, per Outkick: Sasha Jane Lowerson, a biological male previously known as Ryan Egan, won Australia’s 2022 West…
