Hey everyone, something happened this weekend! Not only did something happen, that thing that happened brought out the absolute worst and dumbest takes in everyone.
Even those who you’d expect bad/dumb takes from took it as an opportunity to hone and improve their bad/dumb takes skills. It’s a discipline and drive for constant improvement you just have to admire. Jordan-esque, some might say.
X user blames Trump shooting on late-night hosts
Anyway, one of the gold standards of weekend dumb takes was a user on X, who blamed the thing that happened on…these guys:
Yes, this guy’s blaming a 20-year-old getting radicalized and going rogue on our current slew of suit-and-tie late-night hosts, including practicing Catholic Stephen Colbert and water balloon game aficionado and giggler Jimmy Fallon.
You just have to shake your head and admire the human spirit sometimes.
The internet responds (with laughter)
Rightfully, the internet roasted harder than Kenny Rogers.
Mmm, now that’s some good roastin’. I wonder what the dumbest take will be tomorrow! It’s a dumb take gold rush out there, folks, and we’re all rich as dukes!
