This was one of my late husband's favorite albums when we married in 1973. Thanks for that memory, B Steele.

Firesign was a genius comedy troupe. The “How can you be in two places at once, when you’re really nowhere at all” album was their magnum opus…and my favorite. Nearly wore out the grooves of the record.

With these miscreants, it’s more like “Don’t Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me the Pliers!”

I'm a former DOJ attorney, though in the Civil Div., and I was thinking, could a misspelling cause a dismissal? Or did Fitzpatrick get one that fast on other grounds? It was so plausible!

Indictmenting is hard. Another Karen trusting AI and lost in the forest of Auto-Correct. Worse than Birnham Wood by far. They don't call it Dunce-Inane for nuthin.'

Actually persecutors is a more accurate word in this case.

"In yet another embarrassing spelling goof, Halligan referred to the attorneys she ordered to charge Comey as his “persecutors.”"

Not so much a goof as a Freudian slip.

Spell? When she interviewed that probably wasn't part of the job description.

Wis's avatar

When the president can't even spell "unprecedented" ('unpresidented') or "lose" ('loose'), I'm pretty sure spelling isn't a top priority in this cabinet.

The clown car has always needed a dumb blond. Apparently Karoline Leavitt thought it was beneath her.

As a blonde……….

Why can’t there ever be “dumb brunettes” or “dumb redheads”? Or a dumb blonde man, for that matter?

But he’s not blonde! He’s orange/bronzed. If you look at his younger self in pictures with Epstein, he is a brunette. Just saying……

Expand full comment
Susan Stone's avatar

He now has old hair. It's strange how that goes with the orange/bronze look. When I was in high school kids used to go to the beach to get a tan and get their hair to turn blonde. And then there were the peroxide bottles. Senior year, one girl got called out in gym class for wearing a scarf over her hair. The teacher made her take it off, and we could see that her hair was emerald green, a look that easy to achieve if you swim in a chlorinated pool.

He looked pretty blonde to me in his younger days, but I don't know what his natural color is.

As a former blonde (now gray), I’m with you, Kimberly! I know it’s a trope, but it’s also trite.

Oh honey, there are plenty of dumb blonde men. It's just that other men don't joke about them, because of throwing rocks at glass houses, you know.

I agree - autocorrect is a pain in the ass. But that's when, as an attorney hand-picked by the president, you check your words before pushing "send".
