The only way it would be more infectious is if the dinner was all-you-can-bob lasagna buffet (I’m ready, Jesus)

July 2020

“Despite the record number of cases, Florida is still the planned site for next month’s Republican national convention, which Trump moved to Jacksonville from Charlotte, North Carolina, after the latter state instituted public health measures such as mask protocols and physical distancing for attendees. The show is still planned to go on, though numerous high-ranking Republicans, such as the Senators Mitt Romney, Chuck Grassley and Lamar Alexander, have said they won’t attend the event. I don’t blame any of these people for not going, because party officials were also considering docking cruise ships in the city’s port to provide extra lodging. So you’re in Florida spending all day in an auditorium full of screaming people who won’t wear masks, then you go home to sleep on a floating petri dish? The only way it would be more infectious is if the dinner was all-you-can-bob lasagna buffet.” —Stephen Colbert

“As one G.O.P. representative put it, ‘Everybody just assumes no one is going.’ Yeah, even the R.S.V.P.s say, ‘Check one: “Not attending,” “What? No!,” or “I’m ready, Jesus.” —Stephen Colbert

“Also closed are all indoor restaurant-zoos, like Actual Panda Express. Oh, yeah, they’ll eat you. They run out of bamboo, they move on to the man-boo.” —Stephen Colbert

“A magisterial collection. An emotional roller coaster. Soon to be a cult classic. 

A combination of Bukowski’s Last Night On Earth and Orwell’s 1984.”
