    “Adam Kinzinger farted on live TV and is an unemployed fraud,” the spokesperson said in a statement provided to The Independent.

    This is the official response. You’d best start believing in Idiocracy, you’re in one.

      When I first saw Idiocracy when it was perhaps a year or three old, I thought it was stupid. I loved the premise but thought the movie was stupid and too exaggerated. That it would be funnier if it were less over the top.

      I admit that I was wrong about it being exaggerated. But I was right that it would be funnier otherwise because it wouldn’t have been so prescient.

        I read that they got the audience to laugh at the ass movie without prompting them.

        We’re fucked.

            If they’d needed 90 minutes they might’ve been able to get it, but I think they probably stopped filming after a few minutes because that’s all they needed for the movie.

        Hey, the President in the movie recognized that there was someone smarter than him and got him to help solve a major problem. That’s actually better than Trump did.
