I'm sure the Obama-tan-suit-scandal people are up in arms

[–] Freshparsnip@lemm.ee 3 points 12 hours ago

That's why he did it. He was jealous of Obama's suit scandal and he wanted one too

Yeah, everything is slammed, blasted, torched, busted, or grilled these days. All headlines have degenerated into playground English. It's fucking tiring...

[–] Fingolfinz@lemmy.world 7 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

And don’t forget my favorite, “eviscerates”. It makes me want to “SLAM” my head into a brick wall

[–] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago

My favorite is "{country} furious".

[–] Hikuro93@lemmy.world 4 points 16 hours ago

Just wait for 'cooked', 'unalived', 'cap', 'low-key' and so on to enter the chat.

I think secret service would be on someone quick if they slammed him. Can journalism please come back?

[–] catloaf@lemm.ee 5 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Parade magazine was never really journalism. Honestly, this isn't hard news and shouldn't be given any attention.

[–] Fingolfinz@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago

And yet, here it is being presented as news. It being Parade isn’t really the point I’m making

[–] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 17 points 17 hours ago

It's like the time he walked onto Air Force One with toilet paper on his shoe.

The people who serve him daily have no respect for him whatsoever.

[–] urquell@lemm.ee 16 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

How can I make this about me?

I mean, you can't argue with the results. It's literally the only news I've seen about the popes funeral. He successfully made it about him.

They shouldn't have let him on the fucking grounds with that clownsuit on. People need to turn him away when he breaks the fucking rules. So many fucking enablers of this stupid shit.

Consider yourself SLAMMED

[–] gibmiser@lemmy.world 12 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Attention whore would wear a white suit to a wedding

[–] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

At least he would never wear a white Batman costume. Maybe.

[–] Undearius@lemmy.ca 10 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Is this really considered news worthy? Of all of the things Trump is doing, him wearing a dark blue suit is really what needs to be addressed?

[–] andyburke@fedia.io 23 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

search "tan suit" for the explanation

[–] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 18 points 17 hours ago

or "why aren't you wearing a suit"

[–] nulluser@lemmy.world 9 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

When you surround yourself with "yes men" that are afraid to challenge your choices because your snowflake ego might erupt, then you've got nobody you can count on to warn you when you're about to do something really stupid.

[–] Grimy@lemmy.world 8 points 14 hours ago

I'm okay with journalists using slam if someone makes a recreation of the hulk and loki gif that I can post each time with trump getting tossed around instead.

[–] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 7 points 19 hours ago

The Orange Turd stinking up the place as usual.

[–] Freshparsnip@lemm.ee 2 points 12 hours ago

He should've been arrested
