So I saw this image of this... THING, getting constructed on the south lawn of the White House and I'm "WTF?" I can make out some red, white and blue and star decoration on this enormous iron-looking structure and I'm guessing some stage for maybe a concert for the 250th celebration going on all over (including the Sail250 I'll be attending) and I'm like... "Well, a bit much but, I guess."
But then I learn more. Ostensibly it has some tentative connection to the semiquincentennial but it's actually going to be a UFC arena.
I literally had to look up what "UFC" meant because this kind of shit is not at all in my interest bucket. It's some kind of showy arena fighting, think: professional wrestling for people who say they're too classy for professional wrestling but really they're not.
ON THE LAWN OF THE FUCKING WHITE HOUSE!
In case you haven't figured it out by now, the title of this post connects back to the post just before this one which I made because of a totally unrelated Lewis Black bit on The Daily Show ridiculing Gen Z'ers. Now I see this, yet another whack-a-doodle thing going on right now, and it spurns from the fucked up mind of the Cheeto One, of course, like so many other things he's done, and I'm like... Oh shit, we really ARE living in the time of "Idiocracy!" That movie IS a fucking documentary right now!
And, it turns out, when I googled "UFC Arena White House," Google even auto-completed the suggestion "UFC Arena White House Idiocracy" because, yeah, that many people are also thinking like me!
Next thing you know is Trump will set up Starbucks kiosks for the crowd attending the UFC event at the White House to enjoy a lil' sumpin' sumpin'...
