Topical? The same joke about someone's appearance for over 8 years? Are you gonna record yourself doing the Harlem Shake later?

It's fair to a room full of people with Alzheimer's, maybe, lol.

Holy shit your comments are a joke lol.

This guy just makes a lot of long winded posts insulting people. Block and report.

This is pretty funny and ironic coming from someone who is very adamantly defending "orange" as an insult.

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

It's funny because Trump chooses to look orange. He probably spends a bunch of money turning on and maintaining the orange. He somehow truly believes that is his best look.

I don't see it ever not being funny.

That doesn't really make a difference. Hasn't Trump done and said enough stupid shit that actually merits criticism? Making fun of how someone looks is literally the lowest tier of criticism.

I don't see it ever not being funny.

Yeah, if you guys haven't grown up by now, I agree you probably never will.

I'm in my 40's and chuckle when I see bullies thrown on their own sword. Review my post history and ridicule me appropriately, no one here gives a fuck.

Age doesn't dictate maturity.

chuckle when I see bullies thrown on their own sword.

What a strange definition of "bullying".

Review my post history

Nah, that's the ideologues' playbook, not mine. Digging for dirt in post histories is a loser move.

This shit is 100% a bully - there are so many fucking examples of him being a playground bully out there but here's just one: https://youtu.be/PX9reO3QnUA

He's a fucking clown.

[-] damnedfurry@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Oh, Trump, yeah, he's a narcissistic dipshit.

Actually, there's a term that's kinda fallen out of popularity in recent years, that fits him perfectly: "blowhard".

Big talk, empty talk, lots of it. Fitting, no?

[-] Hominine@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Came back here to find you know all about those "loser moves."

[-] xmunk@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 year ago

It's funny because this chuckle fuck won't go away. We'd all love to never see skits about him on late night again... so can he please shut the fuck up and go away already?

[-] alquicksilver@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

It feels like he has gotten more orange recently. I don't know if it's that he's using a different shade of concealer, is missing more spots so his pale skin shows against the concealer, or the various images I've seen have had weird saturation issues, but it's noticeable. Like a bad spray tan in some images, though I expect some of those may be saturated.

Given how angry some folks get over certain jokes based on the age of the joke indicates to me that the jokes remain at least somewhat effective in their goal of drawing attention to how ridiculous something is.

[-] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Whats the harlem shake?

[-] AA5B@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah but now we can append “in jail” and it becomes a whole new joke
