Late to comment b/c on May 5th I said goodbye to my Yorkie, best friend for 12 years, so I missed the show since I’ve cried all week. Anyway, I checked out the veggie disc article on vegnews.com…

Title: EU WANTS TO CALL PLANT-BASED BURGERS “VEGGIE DISCS

Subtitle: If the proposed legislation passes, Gregg’s might be forced to call its wildly popular vegan sausage rolls “Quorn tubes.” (FYI Quorn is a meat substitute product originating in the UK and sold primarily in Europe, but also available in 19 countries.)

Now wait for it, some PETA people will insist on calling hot dogs pork product tubes, you know, because.

The voodoo cops segment that ascended into pin hilarity made me think of the song, Needles and Pins,” written by Sonny Bono.

Absolutely LOVED the joke Steve told to start this R/A: a joke lampooning the ridiculous charge of antisemitism levied against President Trump by some on the left.

Question: Whart’s the difference between a liberal Jew and Donald Trump?

Answer: Donald Trump has Jewish grandchildren.

When Steve said that Scott and Bill keep coming back for each lightning round after Bill said the “you’re killing me Larry” line, I thought about Kenny dying in each episode of South Park but coming back each week for the next one.

Could also work in a Monty Python quote “I got better”.

Loved the “common sense pin control” schtick. Perfect.

Burkinis? Really? Next it’ll be models parading down a fashion runway enticing us with burkas in slightly different shades of black, with ever-so-slight variations. Oh wait, that’s been done. Is it noteworthy that none of the pictures (linked below) show the model’s HEAD? Maybe she no longer has one. (Oops, I didn’t say that out loud, did I?)

Oh! Pretty thumbnail. How many annual subscriptions did that cost? You could have used an image of a lamp, though, since this episode is a “lighting” round.

Kruiser Kontrol was the perfect background while I made breakfast on Saturday mornings for a few years. I always liked his guest spots

LOL, Press interviewing a border patrol agent with illegals crossing behind them. This is a slightly different twist on when Baghdad Bob was reporting on the invasion of Iraq and how American forces were being slaughtered and were on the run.

Veggie Disks: This is what you get when your government can’t deal with the big issues. Personally, I think they should be renamed Victory Burgers.

Sports Illustrated (Burkini): Look how woke we are – aren’t we awesome?

Voodoo Cops: Can you blame them? With all of the cop hatred out there, and the fact that fewer and fewer people are entering the police force, they need to beef up their arms somehow.
