The Unfunny Musings of the Unfunny Jonah Goldberg: A New Occasional Series

All just from the past two days.

Enjoy!

References are not the same as humor or wit, Jonah. So, you know Twain's quote, "The coldest winter I ever spent was the a summer in San Francisco." Congrats. All college freshmen know this quote.



Two references in this one. Do you get it? No but like: Do you get it? He's using words other people have used and that's funny because Memory Tickles.



Another reference. Swamp Thing. Because "Swamp."

Do you get it? Do you 'member?

Do you like when people make you 'member some feelz?



This one's a threefer. One, it's a grumbleflaunt, where he complains about Steven Colbert having made him the butt of a joke, but the real message is "I'm important enough that Steven Colbert made me the butt of a joke."

Two, it's a reference. We know how much Couch McStarTrek loves references.

Three, it's specifically a reference to a 2009 meme about whether Hot Dogs Are Sandwiches, which is a cyberflirting-with-other-heavyset-male-twitter-addicts Fake Argument "Humor" bit he's been doing for a while.



This may shock you, but here's another reference.

Do you get it? Do you remember 1975?



Another reference. Do you guys remember 1976? Or 1895, or whenever the original book was published?




References are funny because they're things you know other people said and so you're all like "Wait a minute, you didn't say that, some other person said it!" and that's funny because that's just crazy that two different people would say the same thing.

Like "Jinx, buy me a coke!"

Do you 'member that? It's fun to 'member things.

Here's some more cyberflirting, this time with the archliberal Dave Wiegel.



Here's more of that gayballz flirting with men about a contrived fake argument about pizza:



This seems to be a reference to a 2011 meme which wasn't very funny when Charlie Sheen was using it:



Ninjas are still a meme, right? I mean, they were a meme in 2007 when we all knew 1, Ninjas are awesome, 2, Ninjas are totally sweet, and 3, Ninjas just go crazy and kill everybody.

I don't know what this one is. It seems to yet another contrived play-fight to cyberflirt, combined with a reference.



More of the Hot Dog Isn't a Sandwich Fake-Fight, and therefore more cyberflirting with men.



Reference!!!



Do you guys remember 1988? Because Jonah Goldberg totally remembers 1988.

Hey, you're not gonna believe this, but this one is 1, a Reference, and 2, a callback to an old, tired meme from 2012. And I think I have some authority to say this is an old, tired meme from 2012, because it originated on this very site (thanks to Slublog and LauraW, if I remember right).



By the way: No disrespect intended to Slublog or LauraW. It was very funny in 2012. And then in 2013, and 2014 too. A bit.

But now six years later? It's kind of losing the freshness and invention it once had.

This next one isn't a reference, I don't think. It's just not funny.



Here, Jonah Goldberg tells Rudy Giuliani he "missed the joke" of saying that Rudy is smoking like a fiend worrying about Trump's next tweet.



I think we all missed that joke, Johah.

You should have just done a nice reference.

Oh wait: You did that too:



All these failed jokes and not-even-jokes cutesy-pie references and cyberflirts were collected from just the last 48 hours. I'm not even including all the dog stuff or the stupid repetition of Stock Twitter Phrases like "Shots fired" or "What could go wrong?"

I'll stop here. I've punished you enough.

If anyone really wants to send my blood pressure spiking, an easy way to do so is to say, "I like Jonah Goldberg, he's the funny conservative."

Jonah is like the Klondike bar of humor.

And Ace is like the Eskimo Pie.

41 An additional bonus reason to stay off Twitter: should you become notable, Ace will have no reason to lambaste you in top-notch and humiliating form.

Great work, Ace. It's always best when they do it to themselves and you just have to cough, point, and just a dash of snark to take it over line.

44 Come on, show a little compassion. These guys are officially and unofficially screwed. They sold out on Conservative politics in order to castigate good old Nationalism (which is only racist in the small minds of over-compensating, projecting racists).

Where do they go next? We don't want them. The Left is only using them as useful idiots. Eventually, the Left will have had enough of their patronizing bullshit and discard them. Presto... Unemployable whiners.

78 What does Kayfabe mean?

It's a pro wrestling term they stole from carnies. It basically refers to the idea you don't want to ever reveal the fakery behind the scenes. Even in public, you act like the show is real, the rivalries are real, the wrestling is real. You don't break character.

Hey, he would rather remember anything else than what he has become - an irrelevance - to the people he wants to influence. We don't care what he says, the only purpose he serves now is to be a comic reference to the "cool people". If he were really funny they would hate him.

107 remember when the black cat went by, and it was just like the black cat that went by earlier?

well that was a movie scene, but it doesn't mean anything in real life, cats do that. And repeating lines from old movies or old blog posts also doesn't mean anything. One discussion about hot dog/sandwich is more than enough. Save the nostalgia reflections for pictures of the kids as you grow old. Stop waxing poetic over inane blog posts of yesteryear.

But then ... cucks are gonna cuck.

I think he gave us a clue.

Even in that book - he portrayed Hillary's worst fault as "too motherly". He went on and on about it. She'd bring Socialism with a Smiley Face.

Looking back ... Jonah told us then. He just didn't think Hilz was all that bad. Just another Matriarch of a Patrician Family.

Every time I see some news story on a Muslim weapons training camp, it's some little blurb in a local paper and possibly in a UK paper.

I have an important observation to share:

As you'll remember, just a few weeks a cocksucking Judge ORDERED the president of the United States to stop banning anyone from the president's very own personal twitter account, citing it was an infringement on the First Amendment to do so. The Left agreed joyously and celebrated.

This week, the very same cocksuckers are celebrating the social-media-banishment of Alex Jones and calling for even more banishments.

The Left doesn't believe in any of the shit they say -- We Must Stop Following Their Bullshit Rules.

I've seen him in action. Steyn amd Farage were on a debate team together, and it was glorious. Simon Scharma got eviscerated so badly it should have been the end of his public career.

But I still prefer Coulter. Is it because she's quicker in person? More sharp tongued? It must be je ne sais quois, because I'm not sure of the reason myself.

314 Schiff is of course a loathsome and frightening exemplar of the idiotic, irresponsible, lawless, dumb Dem party - but you knew that.


Pruitt and Price - neither indicted nor convicted, nor disgraced, just bad fits for their jobs (the disgrace of Obama admin. personnel, from the president on down, was nearly constant, historically unprecedented, and often came with a body count).


Flynn - we'll see, but likely wrongly prosecuted, and in the end *his* persecuters will be the ones doing jail time.


Papadaparapaolopolous - junior nobody volunteer, for a brief period, whatever he did had nothing to do with the campaign or "RUSSIA!".

347 Heard part of an interview Hannity did with Twitter CEO, Jack whoever.


Didn't hear it all. Twitter guy gave a simple defense of his operation, saying they weren't communicating well about their challenges with algorithms, monitoring ToS-violations, etc. Said they had made mistakes and were learning.


Big take-away was: Sean let the guy complete more than one sentence without interruption. Secondary take-away was, I'm not sure - hook for the interview was Twitter *not* dumping Alex Jones. I didn't hear that discussion, must have come after I was out of the car.


I'll let others assess Twitter's explanation/defense of things (he said they don't shadow-ban, implied it was all a matter of their monitoring/algorithm operations being imperfect).


But I thought it was interesting that he did an interview with Hannity. Thirty years ago, it would be called "duh, common sense, get your side of the story out there, talk to existing/potential customers, protect your brand" - but these days it qualifies as a striking, unconventional, bold move, to actually talk to *all* identifiable market segments.

385 Twitter is a great resource. Just a collection of mini-blogs and link farms, really. If you use it that way.


I don't even know the correct terms, but I just look for a select group of posters, look at only their actual feed or timeline or whatever it's called, don't look at responses.


Example: Techno Fog, who's running a daily summary of the Manafort trial based on transcripts. He's not a trial lawer, but he makes an effort to excerpt and focus on/discuss big things that happen. It's great. As someone else online noted, his "coverage" is vastly better than the WaPo's coverage.


I don't have an account. I don't "follow" anyone. I just remember who to check in on, depending on the topic. Plus, the better people serve as mini-aggregators themselves, as they "re-tweet" select stuff (giving one new leads to follow, if desired).

Suckin' them plunkers.

Ace has written several classic pieces that deserve MUCH more praise than they've got. "How They Built The Bomb" is one of the best takes on the housing crisis that was written before The Fall of Everything and the reign of Obama.

Your piece on the Media and the MacGuffin were classics, too.

You're better than this. I get going after twats like Bill Krystal or whatever. But your site is a whole of attacks on other conservatives endlessly. Goldberg wrote "Liberal Fascism" for which the Left and Academia (but I repeat myself) will NEVER forgive him.

442 OT - Palp/others, finishing up an interesting Stalingrad book (based entirely on interviews with vets/participants), and at one point someone referred to always looking for German pistols (presumably Lugers?), because the Red Army soldiers thought them superior to their own ...... Nagant revolvers? Semi-autos? They didn't specify, and I don't know what common issue would have been in late '42.


Anyway, even though the connection isn't made in quotes used in the book, later on when discussing "storm groups" (small groups of soldiers used to raid/seize German positions, usually at night - an innovation of Gen. Chuikov and the Stalingrad defenders), they mention the problem of weapons - usually knives and clubs were used indoors, due to space making rifles and SMGs less practical - but don't say how handguns could have been useful.

443 I like references in comedy, they just aren't being used well in this case. As the post itself pointed out, a lot of these are simply dated memes.

References work better when based on themes or being tailored to specific audiences, imo, e.g. Psych and it's love of 80's cultural references during comedic bits.

448 Morons: this is a story about Naomi 'SexyCyborg' Wu.

There is a young woman, Naomi Wu, who lives in China. She was making money on social media (as "SexyCyborg" and she is pretty good-looking), and using social media to try to push Chinese society towards treating women better. Vice wanted to do a story on her... she agreed as long as they didn't touch certain areas of her life that she felt would put her at risk (because she lives in freaking China). Once it was too late for her to back out they broke their agreement.

Nobody was paying attention to her and she couldn't do much (not-rich woman in China versus Vice and the lawyers who work for Vice). She pulled a minor bit of doxxing against the reporter who mistreated her. Here's a quote from her about this:

"In China doxxing is bad if you do it for bad reasons. If there is video of a man tortureing a dog to death on the street I and other Chinese will try to find and doxx him. If someone does something bad- if the police can't find him, Human Search Engine time."

Vice responded by de-platforming her. They got Patreon to de-list her, hitting her squarely in the pocketbook. (I guess Patreon has a zero-tolerance policy about doxxing.)

And then... Sarah Jeong piled on. In this interview in Motherboard she lays it all out, including what Sarah Jeong said and did. She initially assumed that it was a misunderstanding but now she thinks that Sarah Jeong did it with cold malice.

She is not sanguine about what will happen when Sarah Jeong has the resources of the New York Times to help her do stuff.

Sarah Jeong -- just say no.

475 The Papal Ninja is the nickname chosen by an American Ninja Warrior competitor who is a married Catholic and works for the Dominicans as a layman. He is a normal guy who comes from Berkeley, so I guess that makes him a raging conservative in the eyes of his friends.

But yeah, it is silly not to let his followers even know what he is talking about, or use the hashtags.

476 thanks for laying it on this mediocrity trying so hard to be funny (and failing miserably). ever since I read liberal fascism it was obvious to me that what Jonah really wanted was to be an Ivy League professor. of course he would never be admitted to a competitive phd program and his book (much esteemed among consevrative intellectuals) would never pass a dissertation proposal stage. the giveaway is starting the book with definitions... nobody does this, it's a real tell of amateurism.

it's notable that so very few conservative intellectuals even have phds. look at main think tanks and their credentials are on par with a community college.
