I had "Taco Bell" but thought "fuck it, when I lived in Vancouver, I preferred Taco Time. And non-Northwesterners can probably deduce what kind of food they serve."

I've been fearing this development for weeks now from some of my favorite left-wing content providers. But I never thought it would hit IMBW first. I'm gonna miss that Stalin series.

Watch this get picked up by [insert MAGA-famous name here] as proof of USAID malfeasance 👀

People may laugh, but when "The Onion" back in 2011 published a story titled "Planned Parenthood Opens $8 Billion Abortionplex" that was just as ludicrous as Jeff Mauer's column above, there were politicians, activists, and political commentators sharing it with each other online as if it were real for YEARS.

Be honest - you had to put "unspecified date" on the McDonald's condiments attack because you feared that if you chose a date, your legions of IMBW fans would descend upon some hapless McD's employees and you'd be getting a lawsuit from Mayor McCheese.

Sadly, the Mayor McCheese character was retired in 1985. They say that this was because of a lawsuit from Sid and Marty Krofft claiming that he was a ripoff of H.R. Pufnstuf, but I suspect that Mayor McCheese was caught with his hand in the cookie jar. 🤔

For a moment, I was worried Jacob Fuzetti was going to have to be let go.

At least Paula Fox has real world skills to fall back on in case of layoff. Digital marketing, I mean.

I follow the NAFO subreddit, and I can confirm that the whole operation is in disarray. Do you know how much it costs to run Paint or GIMP on a laptop? Who is going to pay for the wear and tear of the keyboard as we share stories of Russian military failures? Are we supposed to buy ergonomic mousepads with our own money? The Slack channel says George Soros is livid.

What about the $50,000,000 worth of condoms the USAID had pledged to send to IMBW?

Different IMBW. The IMBW that got the condoms is the International Men Behind Women chapter in Djibouti.

I think Vegas should have odds on which maga commentator will be the first to take this article seriously

Democrats screaming, crying, and whining the most about DOGE need to be investigated first because when all the crooks are mad, you know something is going right. https://tinyurl.com/tnvy436u

Trying not to freak out about the news but it gets harder with each passing day. Thanks for the laughs! Really appreciated.

I’m very familiar with this McD’s if it’s the one I’m thinking of. Was between my Metro stop and my internship at Dept of the Interior.
