Your chief appeal to me as a writer, beyond the ‘splosions and world destruction, has been your pithy turns of phrase and my goodness have you smashed it out of the park today.
“angry keyboard warriors ardently stroking their pump action yoghurt rifles…”
For mine that's trumped by "enraged the worldwide incel clown posse ... their ideal Aryan wet dream trad wife ... nightmare of female empowerment", even if it doesn't qualify as succinct.
I confess finding the regressives marshaling against Taylor Swift one morning inexplicable. I am still not completely clear on the whys she is the subject of the 2 minute hate (loved that cultural reference as I just finished 'Julia' Sandra Newman's retelling of 1984 but from the point of view of Orwell's unsurnamed female character) but your phase "like their ideal Aryan wet dream trad wife but growing into a lucid nightmare of female empowerment" is a good an explanation as any.
I wouldn't have (generously) given the shortest fuck in history this earth-shattering, 2-minute syphilitic tanty by MAGATS & GOP if you hadn't enlightened me with your entertaining prose.
I still have no fucks to give, but the laughs were very beneficial in these dark times. :-D
So many choice lines and spot on observations! Can't help but smile and snigger while I watch the world burn.
Never been into Tay-Tay on any level, (I suspect middle aged punk rockers are not her target audience), but I do appreciate hard work, talent and a good conscious with some backbone, all of which she seems to have in spades to my casual observations. So I am both bewildered and highly amused at Donny's 'Army of Darkness' marching forward with their 'Yogurt shot guns' attacking her, it's like watching a bunch of shaved two-arsed monkeys screeching and throwing shit at the sun.
I hadn't seen the "Alina Habba Deep State Plant" bubble off the think tank before. I never thought it was a conspiracy that led to him having incompetent lawyers. I figure the competent lawyers like to get paid.
I can no longer see how America ends well. The decohesion of it's society seems to be leading towards a series of violent and bloody hillbilly insurrections. When (not if) the US dollar ceases to hold dominance as the world's reserve currency, watch the bloodshed start in earnest. Why anyone would think it is a good idea to universally arm the emotive and stupid beings we call homo sapiens is beyond me.
What is melting the minds of MAGA Americans? Is it the denatured cheeseburgers? A Big Food conspiracy to rule the world (oh, wait...)? Is the Donald in cahoots with Rogue Climate Scientists to poison the water holes & infect the incel security blankets? Whatever's going on over there (not to mention with their mimickers in OZ), as my Auntie Florence used to say - 'Nowt so queer as folk.'
Dunno, JB, you've got me obsessing about the appropriateness of "yoghurt rifles". I mean, surely anything yoghurt would be too woke for the MagaFiends.
Also, now you've got me on tenterhooks anticipating (aka desperately hoping for) the "snarky little ditty entitled, “Please don’t make me roll my eyes”."
Not sure if I could name any of TayTay's tunes, but that's one I'd learn the lyrics of, stat, and redirect them to the likes of Duts and Ley.

Yes that's more a pithy observation than a turn of phrase. Also smashed out of the park
Yes. Yes!

Hahaha
I've been MIA for a while.
Thanks for helping me catch up on stuff I missed.

And competent, private defence lawyers rarely pick losers.
I simply saw it as a case of like attracting like

"Pump action yoghurt rifles"
*** snickering ***
Also, if you think Tay Tay's beau is a mostly-shaved bear, have you seen America's sweetheart, his brother?

Perfect sums up the weird culture "war" going on.
"Demon symbiote." This one phrase encapsulates what I love about JB's prose. I cannot match this. Amazing piece, btw.
Well, as we all know, the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate…

Sorry , couldn’t resist!
As parent of a Swifty and ticket mania witness… fuck with them at your peril
