Welcome back to Vile And Horrendous. Episode 25. A quarter of the way to a number that also means nothing.
PSA verdict: good advice. Rare. “Tough times never last, only tough people last.” Doesn’t mean you can’t complain. It just means you have to tough your way through it.
Before the main segment, McDonald’s Monopoly is back. It used to be a board and little sticker tabs on your food. Innocent, dumb fun. Now it’s a card in your bag that says download the app, opt in to rewards, register to play, scan your code, enter it, and register again for a bonus piece. You cannot play without surrendering your data. Nothing is innocent fun anymore.
Then a word to comedians who piled on Shane Gillis after calling for solidarity over the Sirius XM situation two weeks ago. You can’t only believe in solidarity when it lines your own pockets.
You’re Wrong this week: teams. There is no I in team — a phrase definitely invented by a sports asshole. Joe quit soccer at six and never looked back, and what followed was a lifetime of teams coming for him. The pattern is always the same: the team loves you when you produce for it. Occupy Wall Street blocked the storefronts of the exact people it was protesting for. The Salem witch trials happened 300 years ago when we already had the telescope and the submarine. When hell breaks loose, your neighbors will have your back. Not your party.
Also debuting: The Dipshit List. Current roster: weed enthusiasts, Madonna fans, dog parents, and the newest inductees: Wolverine haters.
We close with Whatta World, Kelly Clarkson tried to buy a singing bird in Brooklyn, got treated like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman, and the store is now asking $15 million for it. Does this bird shit gold eggs or something? Enjoy!
