EVENING NIGHTCAP: Brown Friday Is A Real Thing. This Dingus Again: Kirk Cameron Edition.

 

 

► I've heard of Black Friday, Cyber Tuesday, Giving Wednesday, Small Business Saturday and whatever else marketing geniuses have concocted to promote capitalism. However, I don't recall hearing about Brown Friday. Or if I did, I filed it deep in my brain next to the memory of my first day at kindergarten. Brown Friday is the day after Thanksgiving which is the busiest day of the year for the plumbing industry. Gee...I wonder why! The researchers at Yelp compiled gazillion of data points, analyzed internet searches for 24-hour plumbers, emergency plumbing services, created cool charts using Canva, and scoured info on service calls from plumbers for 2023. BTW, they feel confident that for 2024 the ranking will stay the same. Uh-huh, we'll see when they release that data next year. With that, drum roll please:  The most clogged cities in the USA are: Read More

1. Los Angeles
2. Miami
3. Nashville
4. Sacramento
5. Baltimore
   

Comment: I would not have guessed Baltimore would make this ranking. I would have bet on Houston, NYC, or Boston. Who knew Baltimore could run with the big dogs in this contest.  I'm not surprised at Nashville. If the toilets at Nashville's bar scene are any indication, they should have ranked #1. Last time I was in Nashville, I saw things in their toilets that defy gravity and every rule of physics. It would make Satan gag in disgust. Anyway, congrats to LA.

► America's most pathetic birthday party boy, Kirk Cameron, is partially crowdfunding a kids show called, "Adventures of Iggy & Mr. Kirk". Kirk is on a quest to  become the bible's version of Mr. Rogers with this new venture.  He wants kids to learn biblical wisdom from a pious iguana and not from, "gay dinosaurs and trans ducks".  Those were his exact words. Sounds like Kirk has deep issues with Barney and Daffy Duck. Or Donald Duck. Or Howard the Duck.  I'm not sure what "trans ducks" he's referring to. Maybe it's the Mighty Ducks from the Disney movie. Who knows what this wackadoodle strung out on bible juice is referring to. Anyway, the show will feature Kirk, Leigh Allyn Baker (of Charmed, Will & Grace) and John Kennedy.  His crowdfunding goal is $1.25 million to produce episodes that will be featured on You Tube. BTW: seems like residuals from his 1980's show "Growing Pains" doesn't pay enough to afford a box of Just for Men to dye his beard.  Read More

Comment: I'm a big believer that people who profess these so-called "christian values" through hate mongering and demeaning others are actually projecting their own behavior. If you were to tell me in the future that Kirk was caught snorting lines out of Barney's ass crack while participating in 3-way with plastic sex dolls wearing strap-ons, I would not be shocked. These so-called ultra right wing bible crusaders tend to be some of the most disturbed individuals around.
