At first glance I read that as “erection”, and tbf you’re probably right either way lmao

On a side note, I’m out of the loop on the origins of the couch fucking gag, and am really not sure I want to look it up lol can anyone give me the gist (unless this meme is it, in which case, did someone set him up for this, or is it really just “horny loser confuses sofa for juicy rear”?)

JD Vance having wrote in his book that he fucked a couch is misinformation originating from Twitter, but it is also Lemmy’s shitpost trend of the month.

What made this one special is that AP retracted a fact check on it since it was published without meeting its guidelines and was trying to debunk the wrong question (It was debunking whether Vance fucked a couch instead of whether he wrote in his book that he did). But that fueled the fire to the stupidly hilarious chain of memes.

A random Twitter user made up some bullshit and then everyone thought it was funny and obsessively repeated it. I don’t find it funny or helpful myself, though

Did you think Ted Cruz being the Zodiac Killer was funny?

But you’re doing it wrong. You have to make juvenile, belittling jokes for your tribe while decrying the belittling, juvenile jokes made by the other tribe.

Even the meme sites are better at clearing up misinformation now than most media, lol

For our UK friends, 2 Scaramuccis is ~ 0.5 Trusses. It’s a fairly precise unit of measure. For other international friends, this around 20-22 days.

At this rate I’m thinking that applies to Trump as well, he looks ready to quit and run to Russia
