I shared this upthread but I think that you might enjoy knowing it also. Jon Stewart went, himself, onto Crossfire, Tucker Carlson's show in 2004. And he just... destroyed him. Here's a link to the wikipedia article of the incident.

I am so excited to tell you this.

When Tucker Carlson (right-wing shithead) was hosting a show called 'Crossfire,' and still wearing a stupid bow tie, he made the mistake of agreeing to have Jon Stewart on his show. Here's a link to the wikipedia page. There is a whole page for this one incident.

Here is a line that might appeal: "Three months after the appearance, Crossfire was cancelled and Carlson was fired; commentators differ as to how impactful it actually was, but generally agree that Stewart was at least part of the reason."

And one thing is for sure, Tucker Carlson may have kept his incredibly stupid "man just asking questions" expression... but he stopped wearing that stupid bow tie.

I watched it. I just didn't enjoy it.

This is an article describing a little bit he did on their YouTube labeled "After the Cut," which was pretty funny. I fully believe John Oliver yelled, "It's only a flesh wound!" At him.

I hadn't read about their marketing stunt but that's hilarious! I haven't had one since they stopped being cakey and started being weirdly crumbly but I'll grab one this weekend.

I recommend throwing it in the microwave for a few seconds.

Enterprise. S2E22 Cogenitor.

I understand that they're trying to tell a story here about morality and culture and blah blah blah but even if this didn't fly in the face of what Starfleet is supposed to be, the way they callously employed suicide at the end? And the way Archer informed Trip of it, then blamed him, then turned it into a "lesson" for him?

I have no words for how much I hated this episode. What the fuck.

E: I'm also watching it for the first time and just saw this episode so I'm not looking forward to... is this next episode beginning with Borg? What the ever-loving fuck, Enterprise?

After seeing that Elon Musk said he would go on the Daily Show after this aired, and after seeing that Jon injured his hand during the episode, I had to see the whole thing.

Why pick just one?

I didn't need this to empower me to continue my refusal of eating or drinking anything suspicious, but it doesn't hurt at all!

I'd think this was an ad but I haven't seen those chips in years.

If my boyfriend was wearing something that outrageous when I got home, I'd be delighted.
