There's a lot to unpack in that statement:
Yeah, Fox sells them, not buys them. Get your facts straight.
Uh-oh. That sounds pretty woke to me.
Yes, because you want to see it....for totally normal reasons.
Weird people
Sofa king weird.
AGOPAW All GOP Are Weird
Does word weird equal cringe?
It can mean cringe but it's more similar to the word strange and can be good or bad depending on context. Someone who learns Elvish and wears clothes from the 1920s could be considered weird but interesting. Republicans are the kind of weird that makes you feel uncomfortable around them. "Why are they so concerned about what my children are wearing?" Kind of weird
Yes, and I feel like the Republicans as you describe them would aptly be called "creepy."
And I think "cringe" is often a feeling of second-hand embarrassment.
"Weird" and "strange" are more general and synonymous with "unusual" and "peculiar."
None of that is in disagreement with your take, though
If one of my kids started speaking knife ear I’d be concern too.
Way to be racist towards people who aren't even real 🤦
Having a grudge against Elves is a part of my race.
And which race would that be? The New York Marathon? Le Mans 24h? Liege-Bastogne-Liege? 😛
The race to rock and stone bottom.
I like your fortress 👌
I hid a clown car at the bottom.
Just watch out that you don't dig TOO deep!
"Absolutely revolting claim! And where's the proof? The video? I need to see that horrible, disgusting video before I believe these claims! Show me-I mean us the video!"
I mean… they can’t possibly miss the joke, can they? It fucking racks my brain, the density of these fuckwits sometimes. The whole reason this is still a thing is because they’re saying shit like, ‘If you accuse some of X, you’d better have proof.’
