   Sorry, but I haven’t been following this. Can someone provide a short context of the joke?

   But why did the stupid notification system call this tripe to my attention again? Especially since it appears the troll has deleted his own garbage. Maybe he’s planning to run for governor of North Carolina in the future?

   I was really fond of light bulb jokes. Try now and the kids will ask “Why would anyone change a light bulb?”

   My theory about eating dogs is that it’s an old family thing. The orange albatross heard that his draft-dodging immigrant grandfather used to feed dog meat to the American prospectors eating at the restaurant part of his b-word. You did know the family fortune mostly came from the w-word, didn’t you? Check the records, though it’s possible Fred didn’t know many of the details. I think he was born later, while Frederick was in the process of being deported… Fun family, eh? Only the best genes.

   The missing meme is an orange albatross with three right wings? Perhaps flutter-crashing into a “bird killing” windmill? And don’t forget the smaller albatross Vance tied to the neck of the big orange albatross.

   I have a “comprehensive theory” about how it works. The responsiveness of the ads is actually a metric of how much or little personal information they have on me. If I am “starving the beast” and reserving my personal information, then my ads should be focused rather narrowly. If I am seeing a wide spectrum of ads all the time, then “they” know too much about me.

   But I may be deluding myself. I think it’s good that my ads from all sources seem to be narrowly focused all the time, and almost always focused on things I have no intention of buying. But it might just be bugs in the AI or some kind of subliminal priming for other stuff that I actually wind up buying without knowing why.

   Why doesn’t the fake GOP require separate bathrooms in each house? Excuse me for not caring about this “issue”.

    I don’t follow American football these years. Did any of those things happen?
