        I can’t remember, was that just a “Fry dumb” thing, or was it related to his incestuous bootstrap lack of delta brainwave?

          I don’t think they ever said one way or the other. I just remember H̶e̶r̶m̶e̶s̶ Farnsworth says something like, “The poor little guy starved to death.”

          Edit: made a correction

          Fry dumb. You can pretend it’s more complicated if you want, but the joke is “Fry dumb”.

    He said in a deposition that clinicians believed the parasite “got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died.”

    Well, that’s reassuring. I’ll be sure to vote for the guy who had his brain eaten by a worm. That’s the best qualification you can get.

    When this hit Morning Joe on my morning drive into work, I had tears in my eyes from laughing so much.

    What. The. Fuck.

    it ate a portion of his brain

    Seriously. What the fuck is this time-line?

    “I’d quite like this parasite removed before it kills me” the worm was heard saying.

    Amy: Fry Bobby, what happened to your brain slug?

    Farnsworth: Tsk, tsk. The poor guy starved to death.

      The worm died over a decade ago…

      And Kennedy seems to think the cause of death was eating his brain

      Kennedy said in the deposition that the doctor thought the spot on the scan “was caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died.”

        That’s just a sequence of events. “I stood up and then my car alarm went off” doesn’t mean those events are linked. The worm probably just doesn’t live that long or something.

        There are myriad things we can point to to mock these people but showing off our poor reading comprehension isn’t going to help.

        Neither, because he is not a serious candidate.

        Would you prefer me or Trump? Trump is a worthless pile of crap and I’m not on enough ballots to get elected, plus my whole platform is about getting public transportation going everywhere so that everyone who wants to can get drunk at work and still be safe getting home.
