Did Buttigieg, Shapiro, and Zelenskyy do a DBZ-type fusion?

I've only seen the clip where they're in a dairy queen

"Can I eat the ice cream before the chicken?"

"You can do whatever you want...its date night"

Is burned into my brain lol

…what the fuck? Does Mayo Pete usually control the order in which Chasten (why do I remember his name?) eats his food or what is being implied here?

I think it's designed to be one of those "cute" teasing lines that just are awkward for everyone that isn't like a boomer grandma.

So here's the plan... We tell Afghanistan they can have all of our minerals if we can have half of theirs. They will obviously accept as it's a good deal for them. Then we place a live crocodile in front of our minerals and institute a strict formal dress code. While the Taliban are busy trying to dodge the crocodile and rent tuxedos, we'll already have all of their rare earths

New 2000s-era James Bond movie Russian computer programmer just dropped

He looks like a villain in one of the more mid Star Trek Next Gen episodes.

A redshirt who turns out to be evil, being paid by the Romulans or something

A beard is no substitute for a good jawline.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, but a beard hides the fact that you have no jawline

...fight me

He's entered his bear phase

Also I would like to remind everyone of this unhinged article from 2023

https://www.wired.com/story/pete-buttigieg-interview-god-beer-electric-mustang/

The curious mind of Pete Buttigieg holds much of its functionality in reserve. Even as he discusses railroads and airlines, down to the pointillist data that is his current stock-in-trade, the US secretary of transportation comes off like a Mensa black card holder who might have a secret Go habit or a three-second Rubik’s Cube solution or a knack for supplying, off the top of his head, the day of the week for a random date in 1404, along with a non-condescending history of the Julian and Gregorian calendars.

A lot of libs I know are obsessed with the way this guy talks, which has the sound of being intellectual. But it matches the obsession with aesthetics, debate, and the marketplace of ideas, etc (he did a lot of debates on Fox and other recently). He's basically what they think of when they imagine a #resist politician after watching The West Wing.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago

My mom is a fucking turbo-lib and loves this rat fuck. "He's very articulate." She never says what he actually said, just complete vibes. No analysis of policies. Shrugs off his secret cave meetings and train derailments.

Just makes me want to odfoofsoabwiskwkaipapqoabbrfug

Twink death is real

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 weeks ago

He's got cold lifeless eyes... like a dolls eyes.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 weeks ago

I can see why he thinks it's a good idea, but for now it looks pretty bad.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 weeks ago

Used to have high, high hopes for a living

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 weeks ago

Buttigenskiyy

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago

He looks like they cut off his supply of dogs

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

He looks like Kendall Roy.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

Lmao I’m the eldest boy lookin ass

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

That's what I was thinking, too lol. He looks like Kendall going through withdrawal.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 weeks ago

He looks high as fuck ngl.

My man has gone from American Psycho to The Machinist

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

On his grizzled and edgy arc. He's basically like that guy from the Office that glazes the CIA for a living.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago

Jimmy Kimmel?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago

Looks a bit lacking in humour. Like he's contrasting himself unfavorably with someone I'd want to play DnD with.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago

I won't condemn the weird awkward stage of beard. Everyone's is unique. You hit it and either you shave or push on and hope it gets better.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago

I scrolled past this post without really looking at it and thought it was a picture of zelensky and thought that was the joke

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

Do you want some candy? I got some in my windowless van.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

Dr evil vibes

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

I hope he gets an absolutely enormous beard like some kind of dwarven king. Alternatively, there are some hilarious decisions he could make with just a moustache.
