In most situations, it's rational for a commenter to question the Facebook publications on the legitimacy of a news story. Sites try to piggy-back on any trending topic and add their own voice.
But, when the site is actually A NEWS SOURCE, perhaps you should leave your comments to yourself.
Say what you will about the President, but there's no denying that his Twitter habits have given us hours of entertainment. His latest Twitter escapade was regarding Time Magazine's 'Person of the Year' issue. On Saturday President Trump tweeted "Time Magazine called to say that I was PROBABLY going to be named "Man (Person) of the Year," like last year, but I would have to agree to an interview and a major photo shoot. I said probably is no good and took a pass. Thanks anyway!" Parodies from comedians such as Julia Louis Dreyfuss and Billy Eichner began pouring in, along with riffs on New Yorker cartoons. Here are some of our favorites.
And on a side note, here are some of our favorite tremendous Trump memes that are nearly unbelievable.
SNL writer Josh Patten is trolling the President hard. The writer and comedian announced his new project "Responding To Trump Tweets Like They Were Texts" on July 16th, and we can't get enough of it. Patten's "text" responses are brief and colloquial, providing contrast that helps highlight just how over the top and exclamatory the President's tweets can be. Patten has declined to comment on the project, but we're definitely hoping to see more of these "text exchanges" in the future.
Somebody just lost their job.
Third Eye Blind was asked to play at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland before GOP convention attendees and the band didn't hold back from voicing their opinions on the Republican platform.
"Who here believes in science?" and other pro-LGBT statements were muttered to the audience, followed by a crowd of boos. Third Eye Blind went deep into their archive to pull out their most Republican rage-fueled songs packed with the most obscure lyrics.
In case you missed the news, the San Diego Chargers are with San Diego no more, and officially movin onwards to Los Angeles. Best of all in this whole shitshow of a logo rehaul...the team retraced their steps after getting roasted seven ways from Sunday on Twitter. That hasn't stopped other teams from continuing to troll the ever livin' shit out of 'em. Phew.
Wes Metcalfe posted a complaint on the wall of the Facebook page of British supermarket Tesco about finding a dead worm in a cucumber.
The complaint spiraled out of control and included Oasis covers, a funeral, and some of the best damn customer service in the history of the planet.
If Rob from Customer Care doesn't get a promotion/raise/bonus out of this, I will have officially lost all faith in humanity.
RIP William
PewDiePie has been confusing his fans for the last couple weeks and things finally came to a halt on Tuesday when his a stupid tweet got him suspended from Twitter. For weeks, the YouTube star has rattled the gaming community with screenshots from his Tuber Simulator, leaving fans with unanswered questions. Now, he's "joining" ISIS and people are losing their minds.
Because Target can't always reply to their idiotic customers in the most appropriate fashion, one man took the initiative and created a fake customer service account titled "Ask ForHelp" to deliver the some serious social justice. Target Facebook has been flooded with hate after its stores recently made the move toward gender-neutral in-store labeling. The fake Facebook account was built for success with the bull's-eye profile pic and a fitting name.... The haters weren't ready.
In a surprise Supreme Court ruling late late night, the justices announced replacing the "individual mandate" portion of the health care bill with a mandatory "Facebook post" clause. Before tax-payer dollars are used to perform surgeries, all cases will be uploaded to your profile and must receive a set number of 'likes' to be determined on a case-by-case basis.
