I’m not reading all that. But some time ago, Maher went to the White House, where he had dinner with Trump. Then he went on someone else’s show (maybe Colbert?) to say how nice Trump was in person, and how he was different than at his speeches, because that was all just an act and a character he plays. Now many of Maher fans are left leaning, or consider themselves to be left leaning. I have pointed out to them on many occasions how I’ve given up on Maher decades ago because of his shit takes on pretty much everything. Sometimes he’ll even have a good opinion, but the way he goes about presenting it is garbage. Anyway I can’t see how a lot of his fans could still be liking him after such praise of Trump after that dinner. And if Trump has now turned on him after that, then that’s even funnier leopards. So fuck them both.

All that stands out is “COMPLETE AND TOTAL LOSER”. Since I already know Trump is, there’s no need to keep reading.

So weird how the dudes making the most money faster than anyone in history are always the most miserable pieces of shit

I can’t tell if that’s real or not. On one hand it’s obviously a hilarious parody. On the other hand several news outlets are reporting on it.

I was getting a seizure trying to read this so I had to stop after the first paragraph. I am pretty sure I missed out nothing

We can’t bust heads like we used to. But we have our ways. One trick is to tell stories that don’t go anywhere. Like the time I caught the ferry to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for m’shoe. So I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. “Gimme five bees for a quarter,” you’d say. Now where were we… oh yeah. The important thing was that I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. I didn’t have any white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones…

Imagine going at Bill Maher and focusing on a lack of success 🤦🏻
The dude is an insufferable prick with political stances from the 80s and always going for the snugness world record, yet he’s had his own show at a ridiculously high wage for decades and is a hectomillionaire.
I guess Trump can’t attack Maher for that, though, since he shares most of those qualities.
And no, I didn’t read on after the first mention of Maher. I very rarely do.

Never seen the hecto- prefix used in the wild before. Definitely going to start using that too, I’ve always hated the nonspecificity in multi-millionaire.

Entirely too much time on his hands. I think nature’s given him enough

Huh, wonder what he said.
I’m never gonna read it so it’s a mystery.
