The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

...could utter such disjointed nonsense and think "I am one smart genius; nobody is smarter than me".

OK, that's how a narcissist thinks. But how do you explain people of normal intelligence who look to this idiot as a person they respect, admire and happily vote for. Dope...I'm looking at you.

“…also honored to be joined by a military mother who sacrificed more— than most— as Melody— Wolf. and, uhhh, you know I love the name Melody because— for— a long time you know they have spell correct and word correct on these— crazy— machines that we used to put out truths, or— they used to be called tweets, and every time I wrote ‘Melania’ it would correct to ‘Melody.’ so, I do— thing, and I work very fast, very fast, blulululululululuh, and I’d talk about, and I’d say, ‘and Melania is fantastic’ and ‘happy mother’s day, Melania,’ our great first lady Melania, but it would spell correct, and word correct to— Melody. and sometimes I wouldn’t proofread it and I’d say ‘hmm’ and I would get just absolute decimated, these people would decim— they said ‘he didn’t know the name of his wife, he keeps calling her—’ and I said ‘what the hell is wrong with this machine,’ I didn’t know about that little feature, but I got that corrected eventually. you know who corrected— the military. I said ‘come in here, you gotta correct this.’”

Tiedrich: Sundowning Grandpa Befuddlepants has become so impaired that he can’t even manage to name-check an audience member without turning it into some long, rambling gibberish about how his ‘crazy machine’ autocorrected ‘Melania’ to ‘Melody’ — which isn’t even what actually happened. it was Melanie.
