I never knew until today how ENORMOUS beaver feet are:
All Other TV News
My worthless Texas senator, Ted Cruz, seems to think his only jobs are fleeing the state and his dog when the state is in crisis, and trolling people on Twitter. For heaven only knows what reason, early this morning, Ted decided to come for comedian Patton Oswalt, who recently canceled two shows when the venues he was going to perform at refused to take COVID safety precautions for the audience.
Anyway, here’s what Ted thinks is a solid joke:
Both of his fans were disappointed. https://t.co/2JdepUcLjh

Even Patton Oswalt seems almost embarrassed for Ted:
(sigh)
Okay Ted, here we go…Not as disappointed as Texas was when you cut your Cancun vacation short and came home. https://t.co/kY3nXZuQSB

Ted, my fans are all at home, waiting to see you at the January 6th hearings.
— Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) September 9, 2021
Well, that was fun. As always Ted, you’re a friendless, cowardly embarrassment and your beard looks stupid.
— Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) September 9, 2021
It should be noted that Patton Oswalt has 200,000 more followers on Twitter than Senator Obsequious.
Anyway, stick to doing nothing for your constituents during a deadly pandemic, and assaults on our voting and constitutional rights, and leave the comedy to the comedians, Ted.
Another day, another threat to bring back 24.
Fox is never canceling The Simpsons, Family Guy (well, never canceling it again), or Bob’s Burgers, and why would they?
James Gandolfini used to accuse The Sopranos writers of being vampires because they stole so many stories from the lives of the cast members, specifically Tony Sirico who played Paulie Walnuts and who had a VERY colorful life before joining the show. Sounds accurate.
Kellyanne Conway and Sean Spicer were among a bunch of Trumpets who were appointed to the Board of Visitors for the Air Force, Military, and Naval Academies in the final days of the previous administration, and now President Biden’s administration is telling them to GTFO or be fired. Spicer is having a full-blown tantrum about it over on Newsmax, as if this isn’t just the way things work, and Kellyanne Conway has suddenly become concerned with “Presidential norms.” LOL, OK.
The father of Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, the executive producer and creator of Riverdale, has been charged with treason and conspiracy in Nicaragua after being an outspoken critic of President Daniel Ortega. Yikes.
Get better soon, Paul “Triple H” Levesque!
Stay healthy, Senator Klobuchar!
I wanted to share an update about my health. https://t.co/0yGWuw4OKV

Great minds think alike. I write for a satirical oil and gas website called 2P News and back in March I used the same picture of a blob fish to describe Ted Cruz.

I wish you people would stop using that comparison. Have you no compassion for the feelings of that poor soul? It’s not his fault he looks like Ted.
