    lol that really is the article title, I love you, Bess Levin.

    Comer: Democrats will interrupt him and his fellow Republican colleagues with fact-checks.

    Ah, I see the problem. Facts.

    Ah… nice little capsule illustration of the modern internet there.

    I read that headline and the byline, and thought, “Well, that can’t possibly be the headline that Vanity Fair used.” But then I immediately amended that - in fact, it could be. Sure it’s crass and awkward and notably physically impossible, but it’s an attention-getter and that’s really all that matters now. So I clicked it, and sure enough, that’s their headline, in all its provocatively incoherent glory.

    But then I got their paywall and I can’t even be arsed to bypass it, so that’s that.

    And onward I scroll…

    Poetry notwithstanding, how exactly does one trip over their own asshole? Like, you’re wearing stilettos and doing hurdles, and you just sorta… twist wrong?

      I think you have your head so far up your own ass that your feet are in the immediate proximity of your asshole, then walk like a 77 year old white man.

      I have to give it to them, it’s absurdly clever. I’ve never heard that one before. XD

      An elephant tripping over its own prolapsed anus is not a visual I enjoy, but you do you
