Every donut shop has a standard dozen they'll sell you if you don't want to decide. Not that I'd expect man of the people JD Vance to know that.

So how long have you been in this thread, OP?

Uhh, I don't work here sir, I just eat the donuts 😐

[–] Snapz 6 points 3 weeks ago

Okay. Yes.

And you, poster below my comment, how long have you been in this thread?

Here, another interaction from someone who is so deeply flawed I wonder if he can even understand how pathetic he truly is. People are pretty good at being able to tell when someone is genuine, or of integrity. This guy has it in clovers (as in, not spades).

He's going to be so relieved when this is all over, and he can go back to simply being the weirdest person in local government, instead of being one of the most visible weirdos on the planet, with all of us catching strays from second hand cringe.

I don't think he can ever go back. Anyone who knows who he is will have the couch fucker stuff at least on the back of their mind, if not on the tip of their tongue. He might not even have a local politician career to return to, especially because Trump will likely scapegoat him if/when he loses.

What an opportunity to hand him a couch shaped donut. And noone took it.

[–] Snapz 4 points 3 weeks ago

"So... How long have you been a couch?"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

Man… I’d be DESPERATELY tempted to couch-troll him in their shoes lmao

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

Well, now he has my vote! /s
