Ted Cruz ad: Playing Trump

This is why Trump, in the general, is vulnerable. Wakey wakey... eggs and bakey.

Dint watch, now or then or then or then or then. It's undoubtedly excellent. I miss a lot of excellence.

Duke it out, Republicans, you turds, give us a candidate and we'll vote.

I've become quite rude toward televised advertisements and in my advancing age it's worsening.

I am no longer appropriate around children. I'm not certain I can control my outbursts.

When the prescription people start prattling about what I must tell my doctor before taking their medicine for an affliction I don't have and then list all the horrible things that could happen when I do take it and they run through their legal disclaimers rapidly as possible I yell at the television while clicking them off SHUT THE FUCK UP AND GET THE FUCK OFF MY TELEVISION.

Or something similar.

The bald guy hawking vacuum cleaners. Then blenders. Then steamers. Get the FUCK off my television. With prejudice that is now quite extreme.

Because I'm bleeding out the butt to invite this service into my home and I do not appreciate one single bit all the rest that comes with it. Not one bit. You should pay ME to watch your advertisements, not me pay you to have them piggyback on the service that I am paying for.

Because they have vexed my viewing for YEARS on end. They have taken advantage of our proposition of me paying for content. They slip in their ads for companies who are also paying them. Two-timing me. I pay them for content and with it they insist on showing me al their other sugar daddies.

All of it, ALL OF IT, must go.

I will control what comes through MY eyeballs and into MY earholes, you assholes.

I must control you because you must be controlled. Now get the FUCK out.

That is my present attitude and it is worsening as I age. I don't know what will become of me. Maybe I'll become a music listener, or a doer of things, a reader, or something. Who knows?

This has nothing to do with me, nothing, it is is between them. Cannae drag me into their spat.

(I privately hope Cruz wins. He's the asshole I can most easily match vibes. His disaffecting all other [red tie wearing all the time, signaling deplorable absence of imagination. Who can be in that club? ] Republicans is his greatest attraction.)

No more carefree laughter
Silence ever after

Vexing me, vexing you, uh huh
There is nothing we can do
Vexing me, vexing you, uh huh
We just have to face it this time, this time, we're through, we're through.

I'm not anti Trump.

Trump should be vetted.

Amateur hour.

Chip, I feel exactly the same way. About TV. Although I became violent and uncontrollable towards advertisements in my early twenties, and now not yet thirty, I do not watch TV. I will wait and do things until what I want is on Netflix, where I am not accosted by unwanted ads.

I have the same problem with radio- I gave up listening for about a decade and only recently began again. I skip between our talk radio in NJ (pretty good for NJ, but sometimes I have to slap the socialists off in disgust).

I just read this book on this PDF link. It was pretty good, I found myself engrossed for the past week and a half. Maybe someone here has heard of it, and read it. I think surely someone must have, you all seem the type to read things. Especially Trooper, this is a patriotic book of people fed up with their rights being infringed and socialism foisted upon them.

Take a look, if you feel like killing some time:

(after reading, I feel I need to buy a legitimate copy, or several, and distribute to some friends)

It could have been more effective and complete if they used the same message, but included the kids calling each other losers, lightweights, bimbos, and pussies. Just sayin'

Trooper York said...

Underestimating and ridiculing Trump and his message is par for the course for the professional political duopoly.

How is that working out for you so far?

"How is that working out for you so far?"

I'm concerned with the answer to that question after 2016.

Chip and Steg - Try a DVR. Wonderful thing. Added benefit for me: I ended up watching less tv. As in I'm almost down to no tv at all unless I'm Netflixing though that may be due to SGD (seasonal general disgust).

Trooper York said...

Dvr is the best thing ever invented for TV. I never watch a show live. If I like something I DVR it so I can zip past the commercials.

I will try out a new show On Demand but that includes the commercials so I only watch one episode. If I like the show that I put it in the que to DVR. Between the DVR, Netflicks and Amazon Prime I almost never watch a commercial.

I thought Trump explained his "eminent domain problem" quite well in the last debate. I especially liked it when he made Jeb! look like an idiot for thinking that the Keystone Pipeline was a public works.

As for the video, Cruz seems adept at using children to convince adult children of a thing or two.
