mean how the did Donald Trump get to be our president?


im not a fan myself, but his actual political plan to rally his supporters is very impressive. He didnt become president by accident

w does so much of the stupid shite become viral on the internet?


Thats not very applicable, as memes are fleeting. Theyve been getting consistently bigger and better for over a year now. Its not an accident after 100-150 episodes

why are stephen A Smith, cowherd and skip bayless making $4million dollars a year to troll america? why were Mike and Mike so popular for years?


Again these guys are smarter than you give them credit for. They found a niche and made a career out of it. PMT is the retaliation against that sort of talk radio hot take shite that they have also morphed into a legitimate sports talk show with great interviews that arent boring as hell.

Not sure you understand what Im saying, and that is fine. If you think you'll have the same comedic preferences in 10 years that you do now then you'll likely have not experienced any type of internal growth.

Im not saying its an accident. Like I said they found a niche and it is working. Who knows if it has staying power. I dont think they they'll want to act like drunk college kids the rest of their life, but that is just my opninon. Id bet they parlay their success into an attempt at something more refined.

Im not saying they aren't smart. Doesnt make them talented at what they do. They invented a template to gain viewership & clicks. Smith and Bayless were once respected(& talented) print journalists before they learned they could troll American sports fans like they do. Now they are simply "made for TV". Their popularity is only as impressive as the people on the other end of it.
