Now I’m stuck with Frankie Valley going ā€œBiig squirrels, they don’t cry-eeyiyeyiy!ā€ in that screechy falsetto.

Remember when X was going to go out of business because Musk was alienating everyone, and all these employees were quitting because they hated Musk etc, etc, etc…?

X now trails only google and YouTube in website ranking, moving past Facebook (anybody remember Threads LOLLL) and Instagram.

This is what made me not just chuckle, but positively guffaw:

(Musk responding to Sleazy Newsom saying he was going to pass a law outlawing such nasty, nasty stuff bwahahahah.

From the article: " While user @saintnierva on X (formerly Twitter) compiled a full list of all of Yulo’s prizes, a few highlights include lifetime free cookies from a restaurant called Cookies by the Bucket, a lifetime of free ramen, a lifetime of free colonoscopies and even free academic credits from the University of Mindanao."

One of these things is not like the others.

I don’t get it, as I only seem to understand @SkyzykS jokes. I need a translation on this.

Its the family from the old show Leave It To Beaver. Ward (the father) was a sex fiend and would go to almost any lengths for illicit tittilation while his wife tried to hide these transgressions behind a fascade of the innocence of halcion 1950’s americana.

The young son Beaver senses this tension and ambivalence which manifests as murderous rage as he changes his appearance to represent his personal inner turmoil.

The father, eponymously named Ward, restrains his sons sadistic craving for death by threatening to withold his trust fund and remove the boy from his will, and the mother pathologically attempts to remove the evil from her son which she believes manifests as hair. These attempts are futile, and Beaver displays his contempt by ornately posing the bodies of his victims in facsimiles of the families dinner table conflicts as the Rockwell-esque wholesome humor and hijinx unfurl.

American TV got worse before it got better.

I’ve been told that those two were the inspiration for these characters:

It was like a prequel mash up type thing. I dunno. I think stuff like that makes studios look desperate.

You know he’s messing with you, right? Leave it to Beaver was a show about a pretty regular suburban family with two sons, Wally and Theodore, who goes by Beaver. It’s kind of an early sitcom. Initially, I was confused as one of the famous plots involves the Beaver cutting his own hair badly. However, the actor has normal hair and the audience never sees the haircut (the picture above is photoshopped to remove the Beaver’s hair).

However, I believe the joke here is just that Ward, the father, told June, the mother to ā€œShave the Beaver.ā€ Beaver is also a slang term for a vagina. Of course, this was 1950s prime time TV, so nothing like that actually happened in the show.

I suspected @SkyzykS made up that story, but it was nevertheless an example of good storytelling! A friend of mine does this all the time, so I’m used to it. But thanks for clarifying! Beaver is a useful word!

They just couldn’t show it.

I like my version better.

You ever notice that reality tv is now completely made up, but the shows that are supposed to be fake are based on real events and people?

That makes me chuckle. :grinning:
