If only this would ruin him the way the Internet comment ruined Gore.
That’s the magic of this dumpster fire … when you’ve been burning stinking garbage the whole time … you could set fire to a rancid dead cat and people no longer care because they’ve all been conditioned to no longer be shocked by whatever you say or do. They’ve grown to expect nothing but stupidity from him. Insanity has become the norm.
The problem is not Turnip … the problem is everyone thinking this is all normal now.
Have you seen the Internet? Al Gore should be ashamed of himself for enabling this shit. If we’d stopped at Minitel, we’d still get important info like weather and then gone back to reading books.
What a great timeline that would have been.
I think there’s a movie that sort of depicts this recently. Can’t remember. It takes place in the future but without sophisticated computers. All analog monitors and inputs. Command line interface. Green on black.
Maybe it was the series Maniac?

You got a laugh out of me while I’m at the doctors. Take the upvote and get outta here!
He’s doesn’t even know how to spell IVF.
Ew.
Didn’t the dumbass ask what it meant?
Yup.
Felon Drink Bleach is the father of paying to solicit sex.
I am sure he did a lot of sperm donating so in his mind it is true.
Which is terrible given all the SA he did.
Are we still doing phrasing? Also, where’s Maury when you need him?
Weird. He doesn’t even say this about Eric.
He invented it, duh.
I can believe that. Most women would rather have a date with a turkey baster than him.
Ohhhh.

Father of spray tan, wigs, and eye makeup.
Fat fucking loser.
Remember when Al Gore said something was made of tubes?
This is the same thing. Completely.
Shirley this is a completely same man speaking.
That’s why he went around grabbing all those pussies.
Daddy Dementia is a genius!
No, that’s not what he said. He got a lot of flak for supposedly saying he invented the Internet.
In reality he never claimed that, he said that when he was a congressman he took initiative in creating the Internet, meaning sponsoring bills that would fund it etc. not actually inventing it.
Robert Kahn and Vint Cerf actually acknowledged that Gore was first politician that saw Internet’s potential and helped it becoming a reality.

I think it was actually Ted Stevens.
It’s not a dump truck, it’s a series of tubes.
Also, technically, the actual infrastructure that allows the internet to exist is very much akin to a series of tubes.
Barring satellite internet connections (which are still fairly rare for household usage outside of remote areas), the internet traveled along first phone lines, then coax cables, and now in some places in the US, fiber lines… most of which were and still are underground for all but the proverbial last mile. The internet even crosses seas through giant undersea cables.
If you think of data centers and dns servers as something akin to pumping stations, the analogy of tubes is a fairly decent, simplified metaphor for the actual physical infrastructure of it all. It also allows for a reasonable surface level analogy of water flow through pipes as comparable to bandwidth throughput.
… Though with data cap usage metering, the analogy begins to fall apart at a slightly more technical level, as there is no real… actual ‘thing’, no resource being ‘pumped’, beyond encoded electricity itself, which only has a real per unit cost to an ISP in terms of the actual power costs of routing your requests, maybe the maintenance costs of the cable/fiber lines… the former of which is infinitesimally less costly than with water, and said cost is further distributed around the country or world’s DNS servers and data server centers.
The only thing that it makes sense to charge for is speeds, and even then, every ISP I’ve ever used in any location I’ve ever lived rarely operates at the advertised speed, but technically your contract with the ISP says they don’t actually have any real obligation to provide that anyway, and this is apparently legal.
Anyway, only really with the advent of 5g can it really be said that the internet is moving away from being fairly comparable to a vast series of tubes.
Remember when Howard Dean said “byahhh”?
Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Gore said something about being around for the project that created the internet and everyone said he claimed to have invented the internet
Not everyone. Republicans.
And I think Trump may believe he’s personally fertilizing all IVF eggs and that’s what he means by “father of IVF”.
I keep forgetting that even though I was too young to vote, I was pretty much a republican back then. Plus, growing up in Texas and having our big boy trying to wear daddy’s shoes in the Whitehouse… There was no way I was gonna get actual facts during that election.
He never wanted the job. He wanted to be funny and travel and cut up. Cheney had more power in his Whitehouse than his dad had in Reagan’s and that’s a. LOT.
Remember when Al Gore said something was made of tubes?
No.

Sarcasm is hard to land in text sometimes. If you make a sarcastic comment put /s at the end of it, that way people know for sure you are being sarcastic.
