—Anthony Eugenio joins the idiots.

—It was all the rage last week, but we really don’t spend a lot of time covering the death of Brian Thompson.

We do find it incredibly amusing that Internet Slueths, who ALWAYS find the identity of mysterious (or, more often than not, racist) people (Karens) online, are taking a pass on hunting down the hero who put a CEO in his forever box.

—How dumb is Nathan?

Very dumb.

He had to be reminded that he wrote a book about vigilantes who took out horrible people, and that book literally opens with someone blowing up a group of healthcare executives.

Life imitating art…

If only I could get a modicum of attention for being ahead of the curve.

—Jake is in love with Hailey Welch.

nathan is decidedly agnostic, with a slight lean to the negative.

She had a great moment, and good on her for cashing in on it, but why does anyone want to listen to anything she says?

And for the love of God, why would anyone by crypto from her?

Apparently people lost thousands of dollars, and they couldn’t have deserved it more.

Gambling on crypto is dumb enough.

Doing so because of an influencer?

Beyond dumb.

Also: Jake wants you to watch the documentary, “Sour Grapes.”

—You wanted the best, you got the best, the hottest band in the world, KISS…

…is being sued by a former employee.

Specifically, their wig handler.

David Matthews has worked for KISS since 1992, and according to the lawsuit, put in 12 to 15 hour days.

Question: doing what?

He was their wig wrangler. That should be 15 minutes of a day, total.

Put wig on rockstar, poof it up.

Rockstar performs live, takes wig off, hands it to you.

Done.

Apparently Matthews was worried about COVID protocols not being followed to the letter.

I’m sure he has a lot of close friends and well-wishers.

People that whine incessantly usually do.

—Is Jason Zugai the dumbest person on the planet?

Well… maybe not dumbest, but he’s pretty close.

He’s a the VP of the United Steelworkers union. Because he’s dumb, he endorsed Trump.

Now, Trump is opposed to a merger that would help the Steelworkers, and Zugai is upset.

Oooh, you didn’t see this coming?

The guy who never paid his workers, not having the back of the working man?

You have to marvel at the stupidity.

—Sometimes, I wish I was a Christian.

Because then I could believe in Hell.

And then I’d feel comfort in knowing that Mitch McConnell will burn for all eternity because of his evil ways.

Mitchy is upset, because two Democratic Federal Judges announced their retirement, then decided to stay on the bench after Trump won the election.

Mitchy thinks they’re hypocrites.

Mitch McConnell.

Mr. “We can’t appoint a Supreme Court judge in an election year when Obama is president, but can absolutely appoint one as Trump is leaving office.”

—Joe Biden pardoned his son, Hunter.

nathan understands why, but thinks it was a dumb, awful move.

Jake is more forgiving.

Idiots on Parade: we mock the news, so you don’t have to.

Tune in and get your giggle on.
