—What happened?

Seriously, what happened?

The Packers were never gonna go far in the playoffs, but the entire NFC North collapsed! The Vikings and Lions both went one-and-done.
The Lions were supposed to dominate!

Ugh.

Side discussion: TikTok is gone! Banned! It’s…

Oh, wait.

By the time we were finished recording, it was back.

Booo.

—Eagles Superfan Ryan Caldwell was caught on video being quite naughty. He called a woman in Green Bay Packers garb a no-no word; the one women really (REALLY) dislike.

The internet hunted him down, and got him fired…

Which is hilarious, not because his own actions came back to bite him in the ass, but because a 50+ year-old white fella was a DEI consultant.

Holy, poop.

How funny is that?

“Hey, we need someone to help this company with diversity, equity, and inclusion. We need more people of color, more women, more members of the LGBTQ community… Let’s hire an old white dude to help!”

Just silly.

—WNBA phenom Caitlin Clark has a stalker.

Well, she probably has several, but one of them, Texas resident Michael Thomas Lewis, was just arrested for harassing her.

When standing before the judge, he shouted that he was guilty, so the judge entered a plea of “Not guilty” for him.

What?

Why?
He admitted to guilt!

Throw him in jail.

This stupid legal system of ours…

—Shocking update!

Carrie Underwood, a country star with many MAGA fans, is going to perform at Trump’s inauguration!

WHO COULD HAVE SEEN THIS COMING???

Naturally, liberal crybabies don’t like this development, so they jumped online to whine.

So dumb.

—Starbucks has issued a new company policy: you have to buy something to sit in their stores and use their internet and/or bathrooms.

What?

Shocking!
The most logical corporate policy is coming back to Starbucks?
How dare they be reasonable??

—How do you screw up a story about price gouging? By writing it from a point of view that tries to create sympathy for the ultra-wealthy.

Landlords in Los Angeles are hiking rent prices to take advantage of people having lost their homes…

But they’re renting mega-mansions at higher prices than they used to.

Oh, and maybe poor people are getting taken advantage of, too.

Maybe.
They didn’t really look into that.

Idiots on Parade: we mock the news, so you don’t have to.

Tune in and get your giggle on.
