i mean i could only hope someone that smart was on my jury. for my sham porn star hush money campaign malfeasance trial. she would see through the government's lies!

That was how I got out of jury duty the last time I was called, a couple of years ago. I explained to the judge that I was a freelance journalist who had to be able to pursue individual stories on my own time so I couldn't "take off work" and they let me go. Good thing, too; it was some kind of child sexual abuse trial that was projected to take six to eight weeks, as I recall, and even if I'd been collecting a regular paycheck I wouldn't want to spend two months hearing about that.

tell em yr a law buff and fuck facts you wanna make sure fellow jurors understand the law as you do they love that.

here's what's on his mind today

(the Oscars were over a month ago)

That reads like an excerpt from Thomas Bernhard.

hey cut him a break, he finally got around to watching the second half of the show he had on the ol' DVR

hes never more cogent than when critiquing tv

I was watching the On Cinema Oscar Special like a normal person but uh didn't Al Pacino announce Best Picture?

the once vaunted Academy Awards

lol I never heard a single word about Kimmell flubbing an award announcement. Does the Oscar host actually give out the Best Picture award?

ha he did just make it up didnt he

Or is Trump mistaking Jimmy for Al Pacino?

“Picture of the Year”

there you go

Pacino, who won an Academy Award for best actor in “Scent of a Woman,” did not list any of this year's 10 nominees for best picture. Instead, he simply opened the envelope and said: “And my eyes see 'Oppenheimer.

I do like the idea of him not being able to tell the difference between Kimmel and Pacino though.

DON'T READ HIS TRUTH, JIMMY ME BOY, PLEASE DON'T DO THIS.

I set Trump's Gettysburg speech to music:

just realized truths are what post are called on truth social

Also, Oscar presenters haven't said "And the winner is..." since the 1980s. It's now "And the Oscar goes to..."

pacino getting up there and just doing whatever is too funny

Tbf to Al P, he says he wasn't supposed to read the 10 nominees. But "my eyes see Oppenheimer" is a funny way to announce the winner.

its so disrespectful

My eyes adored Oppenheimer.

my grandma is suffering from dementia pretty bad where she can't remember the names of my kids or what she was in the hospital for yesterday, but her memory of events up to about 2009 or so is actually pretty good. feels like Trump has a similar thing going on

yeah pretty common to not be able to put new stuff in

My mom is in a dementia wing along with a bunch of other folks who essentially can't carry on any sort of conversation but damn if they still don't nail all the old-time movie trivia questions when they play "Jeopardy" in the day room.

I mean does he ever actually refer to any of the specific things that happened while he was in office? every time he talks about his term or the people he worked with he just makes everything up

future ILX dementia ward

jimmy kimmel has been relentless! its kinda crazy. he devotes almost 3/4 of his monologues to trump. his gettysburg one was good.

obviously tonight will be all about that truth tweet. insane that he is still thinking about it. in court for a trial and this is what he fumes about. i never thought i would be rooting for jimmy kimmel but he is really getting to him!

It's funny that every late night host rips into Trump but Kimmel is the only one that seems to really get under his skin. I think we all know what this means — Trump was a big fan of The Man Show.

it helps that jimmy's jokes are the funniest of late night. he must have some good writers. and he's less polite than the rest. he calls trump a scumbag and the like.

Maybe it's because Kimmel seems the closest (of the Late Night hosts) to the type of guy who might be a Trump fan.

I know he's a lib, but personality-wise he's in the same ballpark as Rogan.

Trump was a big fan of The Man Show.

He's pissed he only gets to have Adam Carolla now.

i didn't think trump could get more ridiculous but he apparently has a full time aide who follows him around with a wireless printer to print out positive stories about himself, even following on in a golf cart on the course

i would love to see the official terms of reference for that job

Trump definitely watched loveline with Dr. Drew and AC on MTV

I have a catamite following me with freshly mixed Negronis.

Looking at the Trump clips in the Kimmel clip, I see Two-Scoops is leaning into the "Four Years Ago Things Were Better" thing, so hey hey COVID Nostalgia...

this is the america i know and love! maybe trump IS the right person for the job...

APRIL 17--An Indiana woman is facing a narcotics charge after she called 911 to report purchasing an inferior batch of methamphetamine and say that she wanted to file charges against her drug dealer, police report.

As alleged in a probable cause affidavit, Sarah Harris, 34, twice dialed the police emergency number to declare that her meth was “not what it was supposed to be.”

The drug, she later explained to police, left her feeling as if she was having a heart attack. Harris said she had snorted a line of the meth and felt “something different when it touched her skin and nostrils.”

Harris noted that she and a friend had “smoked a bowl of normal meth” before she eventually obtained the meth that led her to call 911 earlier this year.

Make Meth Great Again

xps I assumed Pacino said it that way in case it was the wrong envelope again

Coincidentally it turns out that Moonlight actually won AZ in 2020.

xp or he forgot his readers and wanted to reserve space for a correction

There is a bit of the last words of Dutch Schultz in how Trump speaks, especially in that Gettysburg address (sic).

it helps that jimmy's jokes are the funniest of late night. he must have some good writers. and he's less polite than the rest. he calls trump a scumbag and the like.

I was pretty shocked to see Blaire Erskine show up during one monologue, I know her from Twitter and she's very funny. no surprise that a late night production that would hire her would wind up being a lot sharper than the others. much better than Colbert which might as well be written by the Krassensteins

Maybe it's because Kimmel seems the closest (of the Late Night hosts) to the type of guy who might be a Trump fan.

yeah I've thought this as well, especially if you know him primarily from The Man Show (which I'm assuming Trump does). I disagree that he's like Rogan though, maybe they're both guy's guys who revel in dumb humor but Kimmel seems way more down-to-earth and skeptical

i think he has actually evolved? it can happen. i never watched The Man Show. the promos back then on MTV were enough to make me never want to see it. he just seemed like a random morning radio zoo crew guy back then.
i remember when he had a kid who had medical problems and he brought it up on his show and i felt really bad for him and saw him as a human. years ago.
