I was going to call Scharf an 'engery vampire' and insert a pic of Colin Robinson — and then I decided it was too obscure a reference, so I didn't.

flash poll question: was I wrong?

I would’ve gotten it… And if I didn’t, I would’ve looked up Colin Robinson. Please don’t hesitate with the “obscure” references. 😉

Just sent me down a wabbit hole!

I didn't get it, but looked up Colin Robinson, aka that Dilbert-looking dude. I've never been interested in vampires or vampire shows. But, please always share what you know. I can't tell you how much I learn on these substacks.

Never squander an opportunity to mention Colin Robinson!

Too much Colin Robinson will put this whole commentariat asleep.

Truthfully I had to look up what a Colin Robinson is but once I did I proclaim your initial instinct to do so brilliant! lol

Go binge NOW. Do it, do it.

Expand full comment

who's Colin Robinson?

Expand full comment

Energy vampire in What We Do In The Shadows. Hilarious show.

Expand full comment

Not the movie made in NZ. The TV series where the vampires live in the Bronx.

Expand full comment

Never knew there was one in NZ.

Expand full comment

Yea, it is a pretty good movie, it is what started it all. I recommend finding it streaming somewhere, probably Amazon. Worth it.

Expand full comment

Definitely will look it up on Prime.

Expand full comment

I know. I’m asking the same question. 🤓

Expand full comment

I googled him

Expand full comment

I had to look it up too

Expand full comment

That would be great. Colin is much better looking but the reference is spot on. Ditto Stephen Miller. Nandor would take them both out for being ass hats.

Because he never relents.

👏👏 that is why we love you!! And yes, on this RARE occasion you were wrong, but only because you deprived people of learning about one of the greatest shows EVER, but at least now they will have the opportunity! And sadly, it is coming up on its last season…

Yes! There are dozens of us!

I would have laughed my ass off cause it’s true, although it sort of does offend Colin Robinson.

I can't recall the actors name , but he's AWESOME.

Well, this comment sent me to Google, and I am not any more wise. So, I say you were right.

DO IT! More people should know about What We Do In The Shadows.

You made the right call. Sometimes too obscure is going to distract from the "flow" of humor or righteous feelings you're laying out.

He definitely pulled the energy out of our living room yesterday during that interview with George. I had to go outside and regroup. Talking in monotone is one of my pet peeves. I usually just walk away from people who talk like that rolling my eyes. 🙄

You were wrong, but just this one time. Never hesitate to use a WWDITS reference. BAT!

Aw, Colin is a lot more likeable. (If I just THINK about Season 1, Episode 3, I start laughing out loud).

Expand full comment

It enrages me that every MAGA dipshit with a mouth seems to be able to get media coverage. Why don’t they ever interview any of the people who think Trump deserves prison like anyone else?

Expand full comment

Going for the clicks. Enrages me too. A segment on CBS Sunday Morning yesterday showed Ted Koppel at a trump rally. It was so infuriating to watch the MAGAs. Question never asked: Where do you get your news?

I couldn’t stand to watch it and fast-forwarded through it. I can only handle so much stupidity 🙄

It is true, I had to deprogram my sister every time I visited, and she was only getting secondhand Fox smoke.

I think the media would cover Jeff. He knows how to fight fire with fire. He would definitely get their attention!

Expand full comment

I vote for saving Jeff from an #OrangeTurd rally. I'd wager most of us would immediately get a raging migraine, complete with vomiting. I would be wary of getting rabies or distemper from unwashed maga's. Not to mention being gaslit, distortion of our reality, etc.

RIGHT?!? Enraged is exactly how I feel.

Expand full comment

We don't garner the flame and fury.

Expand full comment

Agreed! Look at how mentally ill they all seem. It is like the mental wards have the sane people with normal things like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, suicidal ideation, eating disorders, severe depression, inability to sleep, and the Republican party with the MAGAs has the truly mentally ill people who are maniacal, raving, homicidal and delusional. All of them should be locked up to protect us, and to protect themselves.

Okay, okay. Here's what I have to say to the Laura Loomers out there: Stop accusing us Trump critics of having TDS, Trump Derangement Syndrome. Because if you're gonna handcuff yourself to a jail to protest your Fuhrer's incarceration, it's you who are deranged. Fuck off.

Yeah I’ma wee bit cranky cause I have had the stomach flu the past 2 days and I suffer from cyclical vomiting syndrome which is common in children.. not adults.. and I cannot stop vomiting. Called my doctors and it takes 2 days to get back to me.. I’ve lost 10lbs in 2 days.. I’m Native Hawaiian and I’m at 118 right now.. wtf!?! I was born at 265 I swear to God lol..

Well, unless you’re crushing and snorting Ozempic, I think it’s time for a trip back to the docs office. We can’t afford to take you on as a casualty.

William thank you. I’ve called them I’m hoping they’ll get back to me sooner than later. They have a 2 day return call thingy. I’m drinking that liquid iv hydration thingy and I have to take extra electrolyte tablets even when I’m not sick.. so I’m a wee bit punchy today cause I feel like giant pile 💩 and my Service Dog is bouncing around like he’s eaten 10lbs of sugar. Yes my brain is fried so I’m in the thingy mood cause I cannot focus worth a shizzle and sorry for typos cause I’m barely hanging on right now..

Forget this shit. Take it easy. We need you restored to health sooner rather than later. We only have a few certified sharpshooters and you’re one of them.

I'm so sorry you are ill. This is dangerous. Maybe worth a trip to the emergency room (if you have coverage) Best wishes for a full recovery.

That sounds like a trip to a walk-in clinic or ER. Can a friend at least get you OTC anti-vomiting meds? 🙏 Take care.

Don't you have an Urgent Care available? Screw waiting for the doctors' office to get back to you. You need to go be seen, NOW.

Yes.. I’m feeling a wee bit better and I haven’t vomited hmmm. I woke up at 7am and it’s 2:45 I haven’t vomited since 10:30-11.. and hubby just drove up thank god. Thank you Lois everyone’s kindness has helped today. 💙

She was on Shitter yesterday absolutely going off on poor Claudia Conway (daughter of George & Alternative Facts Conway) just because she called CF Donnie Diaperstain a Convicted Felon. Loony Loomer accused her of selling "sexual pictures" online.

Loony Loomer was being reported last night on Shitter, but she was still at it this morning saying that "X has new rules that officially allow porn now" which she called "great news for Kellyanne Conway's daughter". She needs to STFU!!

I'm not certain, but you'd think any child of George and Kellyanne Conway would be born with advanced level sarcasm and extreme media spin. Hopefully she's ok. That said, I would not want to be the person either parent came after for messing with their child.

Expand full comment

Before 2016, I didn't pay much attention to politics, I focused on the economy because of my business. Then when trump won, I looked at video clips of his rallies and I was fucking floored! I lived in NYC in the seventies so I knew what a scumbag he was then, but his rallies freaked me out! My first thought was literally the movie "Invasion of the Body Snatches" had truly happened. I would say it only to have a good analogy to describe the shock of what I saw, but FUCK it seems truer now than ever. What has happened to these people? Mind control, bodily threats if they don't get behind the Fascist Machine? What?

Expand full comment

It’s a great question Lorraine. I mean, I know folks who were seemingly sensible, rational people and then Trump comes along and they are now raving lunatics 🤦‍♀️

Expand full comment

I personally have never read an explanation that I thought was plausible. I think with these people there was always a screw loose and a lot of smoldering resentment stuffed down so they were perceived as normal, but something happened which I truly believe the internet is responsible for. So my movie's title would be, "Invasion of the Mind Snatchers."

Thank you for this Lorraine and Susan 💙

She’s been a nurse for 25 yrs, the last 15 years as a Hospice nurse. Her patients and their families all love her. She’s proof that anyone can be brainwashed. Between the church she began to attend and a boyfriend who was a fox devotee, she went down the rabbit hole. Thankfully, her 2 oldest daughters have been greatly influenced by grandma and vote blue. 😊

Jesse w. and his mom seem to be on good terms, when I’ve heard past clips of them in an on air call or playing back a voicemail from her.

If jesse is so perplexed about what someone would be happy about after hearing a verdict, why doesn’t he just ask his mom why she was celebrating?

Trump is fortunately that rare mutation who can lie without a hint of shame. With complete candor, he says he is a stable genius, skilled at science like Fauci, just as brilliant at war games as "his generals", and the rallies - he understands that his crowds are happy to listen to his word salads like others might relish the music of Mozart. He is expert at nudging the DMZ of the law - meaning that space between not guilty and pants on fire guilty - making him the ultimate outlaw. In a world of measurements, Trump has no bottom.
