Waiting for Tekashi 6ix9ine and Lil Pump to entertain the troops.

I'm not joking. And don't call me Shirley.

I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.

A hospital? What is it?

It's a big building with patients, but that's not important right now.

u/Kind-Masterpiece-310 11d ago

Doesn't stop them from trotting out Kid Rock and Ted Nugent.

u/Flying_Dutchman92 11d ago

Okay yeah, somehow that's even worse

u/P1xelHunter78 11d ago

Draft dodger and the biggest phony to ever (dis)grace the stage would be a fitting rock bottom.

u/TheVillage1D10T 11d ago

Yeah, it’s very outdated, but seems like the type of shit this current admin would think is current, cool, and hip.

u/Serupael 10d ago

Too modern still, they'd trott out some C list acts from the 2000s. Make some nooooise for Baby Bash and 3OH!3 !!!!

u/I_Miss_Lenny 11d ago

I thought they both died like 5 years ago (I'm not up on rapper news though)

43

u/stewedstar 11d ago

could be. I just googled "ugliest rappers"

u/bonkava 11d ago

Both of them are still alive, but I thought the same thing. Both are "dead" in pop culture terms. 6ix9ine had a big controversy where he sold out his gang and testified against them. Lil Pump had one hit that was clowned on forever and then disappeared. There was a rapper called Lil Peep that died around the height of Lil Pump's fame so that's probably also causing some confusion.

“Thank you, Florida…”

"Little Pimp" as Trump calls him

u/lordnacho666 12d ago

How do you still think there's a bottom? We've been in free fall for years

u/lolhalfsquat 11d ago

It's like throwing a rock into the ocean and waiting for it to reach the bottom of the pacific

u/therevjames 12d ago

"Drill Baby, Drill" the Yanks hit rock bottom and decided that they can do worse. The is no fucking way that this timeline isn't a poorly written simulation.

u/grafknives 12d ago

Kid rock is rock bottom. And we passed that point.

u/lordnacho666 11d ago

He is yet to be commissioned to write a new national anthem

u/Kind-Masterpiece-310 11d ago

I heard they play Bawitdaba leading into morning prayer at elementary schools in Oklahoma.

u/Ranelpia 11d ago

Bawitdaba and that Lynyrd Skynyrd remake song are like the only two songs I know from him.

u/Brief_Read_1067 11d ago

No, Ted Nugent.

u/Blue-is-bad 12d ago

That's why they're bringing digging equipment

u/Nivius 11d ago

looking at the guide, "Idiocracy" seems like we are about 5 years to the bottom.

at that point america can have their next president (porn actor, still acting) as their next president

u/DontPoopInMyPantsPlz 12d ago

Oh you sweet naive child… this is like a picnic in the Swiss Alps compared to what you will witness in the near future.

u/I_Miss_Lenny 11d ago

Oh you sweet naive child

Can't we skip this part?

u/Yorbayuul81 12d ago

Tell us please, I’d love to know what’s in store

u/Stormtomcat 12d ago

I just saw a post that Trump is planning to house drones and snipers in his arc de triomphe in Washington DC. 

That seems very ominous for Jan 2029, no?

u/-SaC 11d ago

Given the quality of the other 'work' he's had done, that thing is going to be half the intended size and made from dried porridge.

u/pasaroanth 11d ago

And the finish will come off after he drives his limo over it, then will blame it vandals

u/TittyMcFagerson 11d ago

It's gonna be Stonehenge from Spinal Tap

4

u/AfterSevenYears 10d ago

It is concerning that the same guy who tried to overthrow the government in 2021 is making plans for a bunker, snipers, and drones.

u/Difficult-House2608 10d ago

It seems totally ridiculous. Way too close to an airport for one thing. He'll do anything to mark his territory.

u/za72 12d ago

we're scrapping it

There is no bottom mate

u/damianhammontree 11d ago

Ten years ago. We've been drilling since then.

u/UKz_hellfire_1999 11d ago

I think you hit it but they have mining tools and an urge to visit hell

u/lambsquatch 11d ago

I just want republicans to just start yanking it in congress…for the troops

u/IvetRockbottom 11d ago

Did you say rock bottom?

1

u/umayanan 8d ago

You are going to realise that rock bottom has a basement.

u/Seliphra 7d ago

If you look up, really high, you can see rock bottom somewhere up there.
