    Bro how out of touch with your colleagues do you have to be to not know it’s AI. Have you literally never heard someone around you talk about it? No one on TV? You’ve never said it aloud to someone who corrected you?

      Apparently she started out saying AI, then switched to A1 mid-statement. Might have been corrected privately before, but it only partially took.

    Secretary of Education - that would be Linda McMahon: politician, business executive, and former professional wrestling promoter.

      I’m fully onboard that you past shouldn’t matter if you’re good. I won’t hold it against Linda McMahon for her WWE performances etc. But she’s an odd cookie and has no place running education.

        Yeah that’s really my point. The head of any government department should have past experience related to what that department does. Same requirement as for ANY job - you don’t get hired as head chef if you’ve never even worked in a kitchen FFS. Trump’s appointments are a festival of incompetence.

          I feel barely human most days, because we are all collectively heinous, so I must have missed that.

              Nah, the rocks are fine. It’s putting seeds in the ground that’s the problem. That’s how the seeds get you to do their bidding.

    Considering Vince McMahon didn’t know what a burrito was, I’m not particularly surprised.

    Madigan told PWTorch editor Wade Keller: "It’s one of these stories that always repeats itself. I think the idea was they were trying to work an angle with Big Show and - like Andre (the Giant), here’s a guy who is so physically big and physically imposing - what can you do to get over on Big Show? And how are you going to do it?

    "I think they were going to poison Big Show and give him a spiked burrito. The whole concept was: ‘We’re going to spike his food, spike the burrito, you cut to a vignette before that showing him eating it, and then he passes out in the ring.’ So, Vince goes, ‘Burrito?! Who the hell knows what a burrito is?’ It was such a far concept. And everyone in the room goes, ‘Well, we know what a burrito is.’ And Vince goes, ‘Well, where the hell have I been?’

    “But, the funny thing is, Wade, every day at noon, Vince’s secretary would walk into the office - the writing room - with a burrito. It was a steak-wrap cut in half. And he would put ketchup on it. Every day, he was eating a burrito and not knowing what it was. But, that’s the idea - when you’re in a bubble and in a business where you’re ostracized from society, it’s you and them, that’s it. Everyone else is an outsider, so things like that do make sense in the confines of the wrestling world.”
