During Friday’s episode of The Paul Allen Show on Twin Cities radio station KFAN, Allen, Chad Greenway, and Alec Lewis opened the show discussing the intense cold weather in the region. One person mentioned the recent story about a Los Angeles Rams player putting cayenne in his socks to stay warm, and Allen mentioned the urban legend about trees “exploding” from cold weather.
Umprompted, Allen then interjected by asking, “In conditions like this, do paid protesters get hazard pay? Those are the things that I’ve been thinking about this morning.”
A few minutes later, the conversation switched to football, and Allen once again worked a paid-protester reference into a discussion about NFL coaching hires.
“Everybody’s catching strays this week. [Brian] Flores, Kevin Stefanski from Baker [Mayfield], Charlie ‘Biyatch’ caught one out of nowhere. They’re just all over, paid protesters caught one this morning,” he said, referencing his earlier comments.
Well you see. With a lot of these things, it’s a lot like how a young child tells lies.
It starts with something like “no, I didn’t eat the cake,” but because the evidence is right there, with the empty cake pan, they have to then blame someone else. A random burglar maybe. Who just came in to steal the cake.
Then they have to explain why there’s crumbs all over their room.
Well, you see, the random burglar decided to break into there room, and eat it there, and they spread the crumbs around very messily to frame the kid.
and then they have to lie about why the frosting is on their face, and how come the dog got some on theirs, too, so the dog now used mind control to force the robber to give him some.
And on and on it goes. round and round and round, with each ‘but what about’, getting a new lie, and a bunch of new holes, making each and every new lie more problematic and more ridiculous by the moment.
The only real difference is that they want to believe. They don’t want to admit trump lied to them, that they’ve been duped into believing and following a fascist, that they are the problem, that their favorite sports jock turned radio host lied to them. (or himself is an incomprehensible idiot. which really. Sports commentator. being an idiot kinda comes with the territory. Madden, need I say more?)
