all the forbearance & dignity of a howler monkey with his balls caught in a saltwater taffy machine

[kpete]

The hits keep coming, and Trump’s not doing himself any favors by continuing to post on social media with all the forbearance and dignity of a howler monkey with his balls caught in a saltwater taffy machine. He really needs to call his old cybersecurity adviser Rudy Giuliani and ask him how to get locked out of his own phone.

[Irish_Dem]

15. It fits quite a few members of the GOP.

[Mr.Bill]

17. Ted Cruz comes to mind. n/t

[Warpy]

18. That's worthy of the Bulwer-Lytton contest

If you don't know about it, it's a competition to write the first line of the worst novel ever.

[Irish_Dem]

20. Once you read that first line, no need to read the rest of the novel.

Nothing could top that opener.

Yes I have heard about the contest.
Some of the lines are hilariously bad.

[sarge43]

22. My favorite

After the nuclear winter the lawn ate the first robin of spring.

[Irish_Dem]

25. That is actually very cleverly bad.

Yes very good.

[sarge43]

27. First sentence of a YA dystopian novel n/t

[Irish_Dem]

29. Yes adolescents would like this

Concrete absurd word picture but makes sense in the context of nuclear winter.

[Conjuay]

[Evolve Dammit]

8. Oww. On behalf of howler monkeys, who have limited voice, let me say that really hurts.

[Pencougar1]

[OMGWTF]

21. Remember Melons and her stupid grammatically incorrect "Be Best" campaign against cyber bullying?

She should have started at home.

[Irish_Dem]

30. "Melons"

[central scrutinizer]

32. You win!

Melons is better than Malaria, or Melodrama, or other names for the third nude.

[calimary]

33. Melons! ROFL!!!

Good one!

[TexasBushwhacker]

24. Don't his attorneys tell him to STFU?

The man needs a muzzle and a straitjacket.
