Oh no! Another rant

WARNING:  YES, THIS IS A RANT.   I try to keep these to a minimum.  Tomorrow I go back to fun stuff, but every once in a while something will set me off.  There won’t be any ugly debates in the comments section.  I’ll delete anything hostile from either side.  So for those who don’t come to this blog for rants, have a great day.  See ya tomorrow.  End of warning.

I think it’s time we all just step back, relax, and take a chill pill.  

Our Democracy is in peril, our Supreme Court is trashing our liberties, and a former President of the United States staged a bloody insurrection and is still walking the streets instead of rightfully being on Death Row for High Treason.  A deadly virus is needlessly killing hundreds of thousands of ignorant people, and climate change is wreaking havoc worldwide.

So what are people incensed over?  What are they grabbing their torches and pitchforks for?  What injustice is so heinous that social media is all aflame?  

Mayim Bialik referred to the first round of JEOPARDY as “Single Jeopardy” instead of just “Jeopardy.”  

Hello?  What? That was an actual thing?"

Yes.  You can read about it here.  Mayim Bialik called the Jeopardy round something slightly different.

And this caused an uproar.

Are you fucking kidding me?  Seriously?  THAT’S your big concern?  

I love JEOPARDY as you know, but it’s just a stupid game show.  The Titanic is sinking and passengers are livid that there are no mints on the bed.  

If you want to get mad at something, how about idiocy?   Idiocy in numbers is what’s causing people to believe the Big Lie, die unnecessarily, support the biggest traitor this country has ever known, and preventing scared spineless elected officials from upholding the sacred Constitution they were sworn to uphold and protect.  

So social media may rail against me, but I think the current round we find ourselves in should be called “Serious JEOPARDY.”
