brave of boebert to fight a battle of wits while unarmed

[-] ours@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Going for that pacifist achievement.

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 96 points 1 month ago

Bobo couldn't win a battle of wits with a damp sponge.

WHOOOOOO debates like a pineapple under the sea?

BOBO FUCKWIT!

Who jerks a guy off in a theatre indecently?

BOBO FUCKWIT!

If christofascist bullshit be something you wish

BOBO FUCKWIT

She'll drop her face in your lap and blub like a fish!

[-] DogPeePoo@lemm.ee 9 points 1 month ago

She’s as smart as she is tall

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

That's that's not her IQ, it's the temperature outside. 80°, with 95% humidity to make things extra unbearable.

Lauren Boebert couldn't win a battle of wits with a spoonful of guacamole.

[-] JimSamtanko@lemm.ee 23 points 1 month ago
[-] Test_Tickles@lemmynsfw.com 6 points 1 month ago

The guacamole just gave the spoon an unfair advantage.

[-] Snapz@lemmy.world 57 points 1 month ago
[-] JustZ@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago

Weren't she and like ten other top, younger GOP candidates and influencers formerly models with no interest in politics until someone apparently started paying them to share extreme rhetoric instead of whatever the fuck they used to get up to?

Very, very weird.

[-] Snapz@lemmy.world 20 points 1 month ago

Crazy story about how boebert, candace owens, tomi lahren and more of that type of vapid, gop agent of chaos - all started on a sketchy "modeling agency" website (which seems like it's also used as an escort service potentially) called "explore talent"?

It shows some of these "political pundits" in revealing, suggestive poses and is run by an Israeli pornographer with ties to organized crime (Name is Ami Shafrir and he is suspected/accused of some other pretty serious stuff).

Here are some of the photos that were captured (with watermark):

Here's boebert (this photo really shows you her roots as the illegitimate daughter of a deadbeat amateur wrestler from Florida).

And I guess, until recently at least, candice owens' whole profile was still up.

There's always another layer to these cartoon villains and their evil, desperation and ignorance.

And here's a Twitter thread that broke it open and continues to track as new members of things like the Jan 6 insurrection are found to mysteriously also be in the explore talent family

This isn't an article, it's a Twitter thread.

[-] Sneptaur@pawb.social 12 points 1 month ago

Convenient for those of us who don’t have Twitter accounts

[-] just_another_person@lemmy.world 45 points 1 month ago

Most people will lose a battle of wits with Petey B. He's friggin' quick and incredibly intelligent.

Boebert would lose a battle of wits with a rock though.

[-] whostosay@lemmy.world 24 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

She loses battles of wit with herself nonstop, publicly. I think we're safe.

[-] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 40 points 1 month ago

No surprise, I'm fairly certain that she loses battles of wits regularly with small animals and house plants.

[-] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

I think she could beat a slice of bread with some effort.

[-] EvilBit@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago

Only if it’s sitting next to her in the theater though.

[-] psycho_driver@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

She is definitely the sausage beating champion in that scenario.

[-] hydrospanner@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

As much as I hate to speak in defense of her, I have, on occasion, been outsmarted by pets.

She'd lose battle of wits against a stuffed iguana. She's essentially unarmed

[-] Snapz@lemmy.world 30 points 1 month ago
[-] Plavatos@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 month ago
[-] Snapz@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

Was also thinking, "LET ME SHOW YOU SOMETHING!!!"

(Image: Lauren Boebert's face from post thumbnail-- ¾ angle. She has a very forced, mostly terrifying smile. The image is edited with a crudely drawn witch hat and text reads, "I'll grope you my pretty, and your little dog too".)

[-] hpucks@lemmy.world 24 points 1 month ago

The terming “pulling out” is lost on Boebert.

I like when she fails, but that was weak sauce and I feel robbed of my time for having read that.

[-] TheBat@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago

Play to your strengths. Stick to giving handies.

[-] masterofn001@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 month ago

Why was she never charged with indecency? Weren't there kids around? Caught on camera, in a public space.

And, can IQ scores run in the negative?

Bimboert couldn't win a battle of wits against a toilet brush.

[-] teamevil@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

She'd try and blow the handle

[-] psycho_driver@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

I'm sure she's had dirtier things in her mouth.

[-] Nobody@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

Of course Boebert lost. She went into battle unarmed.

[-] Itdidnttrickledown@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago

She doesn't even qualify has a half wit.

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

She should probably stick to beetlejuicing in the theater.

[-] xmunk@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago

That was the tactic she tried on Pete but for some reason it didn't work. It can't be because he wasn't interested because her pastor told her gay people weren't actually real.

[-] NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

She could win the public handy J competition though

[-] Bdtrngl@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Only because Pete is too classy to do out in the open.

[-] NegativeLookBehind@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Exactly. Handy J’s are a private and sacred thing.

Weird. She doesn't do so good with a male she can't give a handjob to in a public theater with children there. Oh well...

[-] Leate_Wonceslace@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 month ago

I don't like Buttigieg, but he's clever and charismatic while she's stupid.

[-] JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

She's probably not his type. And she didn't know how to handle that.

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

Well, she’s not my type either, and I’m pretty into women.

I find hatred and imbecility to be pretty big turn offs, and she’s got both in excess.

She's incredibly far from his type, and he's taken, and his husband probably keeps him pretty happy.

[-] JustZ@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Maybe try a battle of giving handjobs at a school play.

[-] athairmor@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

She doesn’t have to win. She just needs the attention and to be seen as battling the other.
