Vaping in public is already trash, but being Lauren Boebert at the same time takes it to a new level.

[-] itsJoelle@lemmy.world 32 points 1 year ago

Am vaper. I agree.Wouldn't dream to obscure someone's viewing of a show -- much less while inside of a venue.

I prefer it to stoges, but even the 'analogue' of the habit was relegated to keeping us away from others. As it should be.

[-] GigglyBobble@kbin.social 18 points 1 year ago

I bet you're not a narcissistic politician though.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

There are some really inconsiderate vapers and they do things that smokers generally don't do, like blow vapor in your face when you're walking by and, like Boebert, do it indoors. I don't get it. They were likely former smokers and they didn't used to do this shit.

[-] GONADS125@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Because "It's harmless!" (It's not...)

That was always the justification I'd hear. Even if it was harmless, it's still rude as hell.

Water is harmless but I don't want you spitting it in my face, asshole..

Dumbass: do you know who I am?

Theatre person: yes and that's why you must go.

[-] GladiusB@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

It is so cringe when someone asks that. It usually means they don't and you saying that shows your ego is bigger than your brain.

I read somewhere a couple years ago, that in her teens, Boebert used to turn tricks outside the local bars for cigarettes and beer.

Perhaps it’s unfair to highlight that as it’s probably common practice for most of her peer group.

[-] Chozo@kbin.social 45 points 1 year ago

She married a pedophile. She knew he was a pedophile, because she was one of the children he exposed himself to at a bowling alley and thought "he's gonna be my husband one day".

Sexual deviancy is her MO.

[-] Obi@sopuli.xyz 8 points 1 year ago

Can you explain the expression "turning tricks"?

[-] Phoenixbouncing@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

Just checked on google, it's slang for prostitution.

It'd be hilarious if she was told "yes, and all the more reason to throw you out".

Yeah I know who you are, Boebert. White trash!

[-] saltesc@lemmy.world 25 points 1 year ago

Literally don't know who that is.

[-] carl_dungeon@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

White trash, hard right politician.

She's so dumb but thinks she's smart. It'd be a hilarious joke if her constituents weren't even dumber.

[-] Smytty@lemmy.world 24 points 1 year ago

I'll take "Unsurprising But Disappointing Headlines" for $2k...

Well if it could be done I'm sure Mike Lindell would be all over it.

[-] Hux@lemmy.ml 20 points 1 year ago

She causes a “disturbance” at a venue she is on the board of?

Seems like a Trumpian playbook move to use your celebrity and political office to influence your personal investments.

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 11 points 1 year ago

She's just a bitch. You don't need to call her anyone else's name.

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Actually. That could be hilarious.

*visits capital hill
*ambushes boebert
“Hi! I’m like your biggest fan! I love the work your doing…. Can I have your autograph?! Maybe a selfie?”
*startes recording “Thanks Marjorie!”

Please do not insult Randy Marsh like that.

At least that man has 'Tegrity.

[-] ZeroCool@feddit.ch 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I don't know if Randy Marsh could actually get drunk enough to match Lauren Boebert's level of incoherence.

[-] xc2215x@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

Glad she was thrown out.

[-] Delusional@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Well what do you know, a shitty cunt acts like a shitty cunt? Crazy. It's a shame that being a shitty cunt doesn't disqualify you from being in public office like it should.

[-] EssentialCoffee@midwest.social 16 points 1 year ago

Interesting that she went to this show. I'm guessing it was just to make the headlines like this.

The opening monologue is quite anti-Republican.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

She claims she's a big fan of the musical. She said she was singing along too loudly as if singing along was at all appropriate in live theater.

[-] Mediocre_Bard@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

Not an ounce of shame. Checks out.

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

"Do you know who I am?"

Yes, Karen, we know who you are. Yet despite this, we still let you into our concert. Now you're behaving like a twat, so GTFO.

[-] thisisawayoflife@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

I've flushed turds more intelligent than this idiot.

[-] lanbanger@kbin.social 14 points 1 year ago

This woman is a complete fruit, but I will admit that saying "and let me know how it ends!" is mildly amusing, and shows a level of self-awareness that's usually missing from her and her ilk.

A bitch, is the correct answer

[-] TheSageRedneck@lemmy.one 11 points 1 year ago

I think Ted Cruz knows her.

[-] wheeldawg@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 year ago

I'm a good Christian woman. I only show 50% boobage at a time. That's the sluttiest Christian in open public eye I've ever seen.

Can we skip to the point where she's just cracked out and depressed already? I can't stand any sign of happiness from her with that "lol I'm so much better than the people that have to follow rules look at me daaaance"

Hate seeing evil people happy for even 10 seconds at a time. Pure sadness and wretched depression from them is all they deserve.

[-] art@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

Yeah, she's a jerk. But can we not just slut shame people. Is that too much to ask?

[-] Jabaski@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

To be fair, other sluts would be ashamed just being grouped with this seditious traitor. Hoebert is much worse than a slut. She's a cheap politician.
