Lights are on. No one’s home.
wind turbines are killing flying pigs
But then who is making the frogs gay?
Will buffalo wings be next?
Will buffalo wings be next?
First they came for the bacon
And I did not speak out
Because I was not eating bacon at the time
Then they came for the buffalo wings
And I did not speak out
Because I can take them or leave them
Then they came for the cheesesteak
And there was no one left
To speak out for the cheesesteak
Aaand Denmark the country with the highest degree of wind power in the world, is also the worlds biggest exporter of bacon.
They have to export it because they aren’t eating it.
Windmills, just blowing the bacon away... It's littering the north sea and the German countryside...
This might be my favorite joke in Futurama.
All those windmills, just sitting there, upsetting their digestion when they eat bacon. So tragic.
It’s terrible. Everybody is saying it.
Vote with my stomach? Okay, it's on the left side of my body. Guess I'm voting left.
I have never in my life heard anyone say you should vote with your stomach. Like I don’t even know where to start. What a crock of shit, it’s almost an art.
You're supposed to eat 45 mins before you go out voting. Thats just politics
Yeah, good advice. I still remember accidentally writing in burger king.
Then shit in the booth.
Now who can argue with that? I think we're all indebted to Gabby Trump for clearly stating what needed to be said. I'm particulary glad that these lovely children were here today to hear that speech. Not only was it authentic frontier gibberish, it expressed a courage little seen in this day and age.
REBBIT!
"Bacon, shark, windmill, Hannibal Lector, battery."
Is this your new password?
Correct, horse. ~(Battery~ ~staple.)~
In case anyone was curious what he actually said, I've transcribed the provided snippet of what can be generously called his "speech":
"You know they say you're gonna vote with your stomach - I don't know if you've heard it but it's a little bit true. And groceries food has gone up at levels that nobody's ever seen before we've never seen anything like it fifty sixty seventy percent. you'd take a look at bacon and some of these products and some people don't eat bacon anymore. And uh- we're going to get the energy prices down when we get energy energy down you know this was caused by their horrible energy ... wind, they want wind all over the place, but when it doesn't blow we have a little problem. This was caused by energy this was really caused by energy and also their unbelievable spending their spending is out of... out of wealth, actually, they're taking our wealth away, but it was caused by energy and what they've done is they've started cutting way back [...] "
It seems pretty clear to me that he's... talking. I think he was saying that high energy prices have caused the price of groceries to go up, and that high energy prices are the result of the biden admin "spending [us] out of wealth" (whatever that means). So, you know, not literally saying wind power caused people to stop eating bacon, but that uh... wait... no that is what he's saying. Spending on wind power is directly causing the price of bacon to go up. I'm not... just. Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck.
My eyes began to involuntarily glaze over as I read the transcript, and I barely made it through three sentences. I am not sure how a person could actively engage with this drool for hours.
He has dementia, it should have been obvious at covfefe
The funny part is that could have edited or deleted that and moved in. His ego required him to double down and make a reference about how some insiders understand the reference.
Anyone can fat finger shit into an app.
The disturbing part was the Redhats sagely nodding along like it meant anything.
It's true. I was only ever eating bacon to keep the flying pig population in check, but now I don't have to because the wind turbines will do the job.
For me, the weirdest claim was at the RNC convention when they brought a bunch of grieving veterans families on stage and claimed the media was ignoring soldier's deaths under Biden...
As if Trump wasn't directly responsible for an incredible spike in service member deaths, a clear reversal from the Obama Era annual declines. SOURCE
Don't forget Trump thinks dead soldiers are losers and doesn't understand why people volunteer for the military. He also gave Putin and his allies a list of spies that resulted in many of their exposures and deaths.
truly a retiree that understands an economy like my cat understands written english.
Fkn Big Wind and their anti-pork agenda. Thank God for Trump, bringing the real issues to the forefront of discussion (big /s)
Trump is a moron.
His brain is clearly broken, but that's not necessarily just because of his age. He's always been weird AF.
Unfortunately, his target demo have a lot of broken brains, too.
I’m sorry but I still buy bacon on sale at like 5-6 per lb. Bacon prices is literally one of those things that has hardly changed over the last few years (dare I say almost 5-8 years or more) atleast around here.
I don’t have any hard evidence but I want to say that’s been the case even when that doofus was president.
He's clearly referring to the bacon dispensers in every public bathroom that only produce wind when you press the bacon button.
Humorous, but not exactly what he said. However, it was the ramblings of an insane man so who the hell knows where his mind was at. Jibbajabbamasterlocks
Actually no one really knows what he said, he started saying that many people no longer eat bacon. Then out of nowhere for a second talked about wind turbines that they dint always produce power, then returned back to food and inflation.
With that if you would want to summarize the thought he was trying to say what would you arrive at? Of course other explanation is just gibberish, but that isn't much better.
No sharks? Electric cars are out of equations with Msuk check so he has to find other things
