live news person / world's hairiest seventh grader reaction

Cody's Showdy gets no respect.

I think it's consistently good occasionally great, and they crank out a lot of content (like besides weekly videos they do podcasts multiple times a week)

e; Oh, the show is called Some More News and the podcast is Even More News btw

[–] Lifecoach5000@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I was made aware of his stuff after one of his appearances on the Behind The Bastards podcast. Some More News is good stuff!

It's similar in terms of detail to Last Week Tonight but not as funny.

[–] Oni_eyes@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

It does get a lot more information and nuance though. Last week tonight only runs once a week. I don't know that Last Week Tonight cites all of their sources for each episode like Some More News does.

Turn out the only alive adult Cody is locked away in a room with only fox news and the communist Manifesto as info... For his safety of course

I had a friend named Cody who was a straight A student, changed schools in 7th grade, fell in with a bad group of kids, got into a car accident, fell into a coma, lost site in one eye, and now coaches snowboarding. Not dead, though

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

Not dead, though

Yes dead inside doesn’t count

[–] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 30 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Wait what about Doctor Mister Cody?

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Warmbo is actually his bodyguard, and the corn cream is actually antidote.

[–] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 year ago

Now we know why. It all makes sense. It's all a ploy to get his bodyguard paid in plain sight.

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Thought you were talking to me for a second

[–] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No no you are Mister doctor Cody

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

omg I’m so embarrassed you’re right

[–] TheImpressiveX@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)
[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Maybe. Who am I to judge?

[–] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Oh we're using our superhero names? I'm Spider-Man.

I managed a Cody whom I called Codeine because he was a such a dope. 30ish, sold himself as a technician. In a car shop, pulled a ceiling mounted air hose over the left front fender to fill the rear tire, scratched the paint badly from the gritty hose. Left the bosses rolling stool under the alignment lift and heard plywood cracking as he lowered it, didn’t bother stopping until it was flat. Found out a week later he left the tierod nuts loose after adjustment. Left a flathead screwdriver in his back pocket and popped a hole in the customer seat. Worked one full day, sent home at lunch the next day with a full days pay, worth the price to get rid of him.

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That's because when they grow up it is no longer acceptable to use that nickname and they go by Codward instead.

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's an Irish name and it's pronounced "Doug".

[–] fibojoly@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

I thought it was Codsworth

[–] chrisbtoo@lemmy.ca 20 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That's because Cody is short for Come On Die Young.

[–] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Cum Once Die Young

[–] douz0a0bouz@midwest.social 19 points 1 year ago

I have a cousin named Cody... that I haven't seen since high school 🤔🤔🤔😯

[–] Goretantath@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Isnt there a youtuber called codyslab? He looks pretty old.

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

WhistlinDiesel is in his 20s too. Though portrays himself as having the intelligence of a 7th grader, so maybe that got him alived

They usually change it back to Cod Liver Oil when they become adults

Or switches to their middle name to avoid the shame of being "Cody."

[–] Almacca@aussie.zone 9 points 1 year ago

Cody's Showdy.

[–] deegeese@sopuli.xyz 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nah, Cody teaches jujitsu at my kids’ afterschool program and looks to be in his early 30’s.

[–] SharkAttak@kbin.melroy.org 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So you're going to need a replacement soon?

My uncle's name is Cody, he is 39. Unfortunately no one has strangled him yet. 🤞

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

The few codys I've met all wound up in logistics and/warehousing

There are less than 300k people named Cody in the US

It's just not a very popular name

[–] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

The real name of Youtuber Alternate History hub is Cody, and he is probably in his Thirty's by now.

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 3 points 1 year ago

I knew a Cody grade but I don't have any memories of him after that. Theory checks out..m

I’ve never met a Cody, period. They aren’t common here.

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Riptide anyone?

[–] Banana@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

A friend of my husband's is a Cody and teaches at their old school now!

A disproportionate number of them become NFL quarterbacks. Who then end up playing for the Cleveland Browns, which kills them.

[–] logicbomb@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I don't know about "executed", but if you go by the Matchbox 20 song Kody, there might be some mental health problems.
