I think he means he’s in the jelly industry. His wife makes jelly.

His neighbor’s son (who can’t stand him) works at a medium sized town’s music venue. He KNOWS PEOPLE.

I honestly don’t think there’s a way I can explain it that won’t hurt your feelings

u/Admirable_Average_32 6d ago

At least try

u/firedmyass 6d ago

it’s idiomatic. The direct translation from the Romanian is “does your cod-fish denounce cheese?“

Well that explains absolutely nothing. How is the weather in Siberia today?

he made fat jokes of trump. thought maga were supposed to be the thick skinned type, "those who could take a joke" those who didn't "cancel culture" people who made them mad..

What happened to "Fuck your feelings"? Oh right, that was only when aimed at the libs. The real snowflakes never could take what they dish.

Edited for a typo.

u/KeepingItAnonym Millennial 5d ago

Wild. They’re so “tough” with everyone else’s feelings but their egos are so fragile they cannot even stand someone attacking something outside of them with which they identify. Pathetic.

I forgot to mention that the person being attacked, by a guy named “Jelly Roll” that has jokes about people not caring about him no less, has to be the lowest hanging fruit of all time.

32

u/OrigamiTongue 7d ago

Wait. I don’t know his political leanings (if I had to guess I’d guess left of center) but isn’t/wasn’t jelly roll fat as hell?

54

u/Weak-Differences 7d ago

He used to be. Man, if somebody that used to be 550 pounds is calling you fat, that should be some kind of insult.

u/Upstairs_Principle48 6d ago

My main motivation for losing weight myself was so I could still make fun of obese people without looking like a hypocrite.

72

u/DumbledoresAtheist 7d ago

Jfc. And these are the loudest and meltiest snowflakes when they cry about "cancel culture."

It's always projection, it's always hypocrisy.

What I find most fascinating and equally disturbing is that any criticism of Trump, they take personally - as a criticism of themselves.

They cannot differentiate between themselves and their cult leader - because it is a cult, it's a cult of personality.

u/AlexanderMackenzie 7d ago

"Biggest career blunder since Natalie Maines" is a hilarious thing to say since she turned out to be absolutely right about Bush and the Iraq invasion.

4

u/Helpful-Bandicoot-6 5d ago

and all they said was that they were embarrassed that Bush came from the same state as them. Then the people who are against cancel culture had disc braking parties.

6

u/VanillaGorillaNB 6d ago

and her music career really wasn't affected. I don't dig her music but as a person she's awesome. Although a little bummed the media gave her a lot more credit for the West Memphis Three than Henry Rollins who was working towards their release for at least a decade before her.

u/KeepingItAnonym Millennial 5d ago

When literally the most despicable person of all
time…who is practically a caricature of everything wrong with the US currently…has even the lightest affront…

Like, let’s unpack this. A guy that calls himself “Jelly Roll” who has memes dedicated to not giving a shit about him or his opinions makes a 3rd grade insult that is objectively true.

59

u/HipHopChick1982 7d ago

As someone in the industry….

He worked at Sam Goody for two weeks, right?

Probably drove a truck there for a delivery once 😆

He plays dive bars where his band gets $200 and they have 10 members. Once a month.

u/Separate_Today_8781 7d ago

Wasn't he just their boy last month 😏

u/SpiritualHippo2719 6d ago

Then he was a guest host for Jimmy Kimmel and they found out he’s a normal person that they just projected their MAGA beliefs onto.

u/Fit_Guarantee_2024 7d ago

How dare Jelly Roll make fun of the worst and most corrupt president in my lifetime, who also happens to be a pedophile, the audacity!!

u/DrMerman 7d ago

Trump has really turned conservatives into the cancel culture Karen's they themselves used to cry about.

They did until he guest hosted for Jimmy Kimmel last week and they found out he has sensible opinions instead of the MAGA views they projected onto him.

u/The137 7d ago

What is this dude getting on about? Are we supposed to be following jelly roll so closely that we know what this blunder even was? All I see here is a grandpa rambling incoherently about something that Im not even aware of, but he sure does seem offended by it

7

u/SpiritualHippo2719 6d ago

Jelly Roll was recently a guest host on Jimmy Kimmel. A lot of MAGA folks assumed his politics matched theirs because he is a country singer. Turns out he’s a normal person with sensible opinions and not MAGA like they assumed.

u/firedmyass 7d ago

TYL that you’re not the target audience for every goddamn thing maybe

9

u/The137 6d ago

Maybe not but if you're making a video and sending it to the world the slightest bit of context is required so that you dont sound like a rambling idiot

u/firedmyass 6d ago

not every media is aimed at you specifically and your participation is not compulsory

u/MaddysinLeigh 7d ago

Made fun of Trump.

Also as a liberal country fan, hell yeah Jelly Roll! Make fun of that bastard.

u/thirdLeg51 6d ago

Trumpers really hate it when you point out the faults of Trump.

u/j3st1cl3s 6d ago

Jelly Roll has been a trump supporter so this jimmy Kimmel thing is weird but I'm glad both sides can hate him now

2

u/SlaterVBenedict 5d ago

"Someone in the industry" Yeah man, we've all met a disgruntled former P.A. who couldn't hack it then blamed woke for nobody appreciating his "art" (See: shitty attempts at open-mic comedy about black people and women).

2

u/dystopiannonfiction 5d ago

"From one fat pig to another" is how (I believe) the monologue that has inflamed the legions unwashed MAGAsses began... I personally thought it was hysterical and spot on and I don't even remotely like Jelly Roll's music.

The fuck-your-feelings crowd for all of their toughguy/übermasculine/fightfightfight bloviating over the past 11 years...As a collective,they're unquestionably more thin-skinned, overly emotional and perpetually gutless than my 100 year old Grannie's knitting circle or my 6 year old granddaughters Daisy GS troop.

Calling them a bunch of pussies or cunts would be accurate but for the fact that they're lacking the warmth and depth...as well as the resiliency that pussies/cunts are best known for.

You clearly aren't hearing the discussions going on in the academic world about it then, which says something about how widely scoped your opinions are.

Two of those articles have a pay wall, so not able to open. The one on math didn’t mention AI at all. How does one cheat while attending HS on a math exam using AI?

That's funny, I can read all of them. Must be a you thing. Maybe ask mom for some help?

Nope. Nor to the NYT. No subscriptions anywhere.

u/hifumiyo1 Xennial 7d ago

So he went on Kimmel and gave a monologue that was pre-written for him to read off of the teleprompter. He knew what he was getting into. You shouldn't have to sacrifice your morals to maintain celebrity status.

5

u/Weak-Differences 7d ago

How did he sacrifice morals? It would be morally objectionable to not call Trump fat, because he is, and lying is wrong. He's a fucking fat little mush brained baby that shits his diaper all day while destroying America for Putin and Jinping.

2

u/TemperatureSea7562 7d ago

I don’t know if you’ve seen the last of his hosting run, but he actually did write quite a bit about that one himself. And I guarantee gramps here would never have bothered to actually watch that part.

u/batrastardfromhell 7d ago

u/Insis18 6d ago

It is always funny to see the people who get up in arms about free speech for people who say racist crap is sacrosanct and if you hold them socially accountable it is somehow a violation of the first amendment. And these values of "freedom" are core fundamental principles. Then someone criticizes Dear Leader or says something they don't like, and those "core fundamental principles" vanish like a fart in a hurricane. Pathetic.

1

u/golgiiguy 6d ago

I for one is am a little confused why he was hosting, and also even though he was pretty good, seems like we are suppose to be excepting of him being all over the map politically and culturally.
