It has been so great to see how horrible Vance is as a VP pick. I would hazard a guess that nobody else would say yes to Trump after he was willing to sacrifice Pence.

Damnit, that's a WAY better title! I knew there were some quality opportunities

Well done

[–] Minarble@aussie.zone 4 points 4 months ago

Well thank you but it’s always easier to riff on an idea than generate the first one!

That works on at least two levels

He left the tweet up. It is still there (from February 17th). Just...wow

Man, imagine being a powerless Homelander and choosing The Deep as your preferred sidekick.

Well, Blanc White won’t do it now.

[–] FlashMobOfOne 21 points 4 months ago

Wow.

I am not one to kink shame, but dude, c'mon. THIS and Trump are the best the Republican Party could do? Out of 330,000,000 people?

It just goes to show that Republicans are monumental pieces of shit.

The problem, according to the commenters, is that the words "woman" and "dolphin" were highlighted in the image, suggesting that whoever took the screenshot apparently searched for those exact terms.

Seems like a nothing burger blown out of proportion by the press. Stop upvoting garbage pls

[–] Vodulas 25 points 4 months ago (1 children)

But it is a funny nothing burger that shows how out of touch Vance is

[–] BlackLaZoR@kbin.run 8 points 4 months ago

More like, it shows that media will leech into anything.

[–] LukeZaz 7 points 4 months ago

With you here. The title made it sound like a lot more than it actually was.

[–] The_Che_Banana 7 points 4 months ago

You can't tell me what to or not to upvote. Shits funny...upvote.

"Damn you, Internet, for showing people things they search for," former journalist Morten Øverbye wrote in response.

Dudes the first millennial candidate and his opsec is worse than a 90 year old grandparent. Here's hoping Harris' vp is a millennial to save some dignity for the generation, historically speaking.

JD Vance is a Peter Thiel sock puppet.

[–] blusterydayve26@midwest.social 14 points 3 months ago

So the bestiality guy is the least sexually deviant person on the ticket. Got it.

[–] theangriestbird 12 points 4 months ago (1 children)

that certainly is a raw story (.com)

Man, and we all thought his whole thing over couches was bad.

[–] collapse_already@lemmy.ml 9 points 4 months ago

Man, if we could only find a video of a dolphin doing a couch. Did I just rule 34 that into existence?

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 4 months ago

Margie would do it. But she wants to be in the spotlight too much, so he'd never ask her.

[–] jarfil 2 points 3 months ago

Not to defend the guy... but most millennials might be familiar with the Goatse website, which in its heyday used to link to Lemon Party and... Dolphinse.

Next he might repost Tub Whale.

Deep is that you?
