Opus 2021-266: Click Bait: I Can’t Help Myself

One of my morning frolics is through Instapundit.  I am looking for news rather than novelty so I skip over much of the click bait, but when I saw “The Kardashian Butt Must Die” it was almost as if my mouse took on a life of its own.  This I had to investigate.

The link took me to some site called T-Nation.  I have no idea what they do when they are not talking about the Kardashians and I didn’t look.  One article was enough.  I was aware that giant rear-ends were a “big thing” in some groups.  Years ago I somehow ended up on a site that was dedicated to just that.  Not my dog.  Not my race.  This article told me more than I ever wanted to know but I read the whole thing.  One reason was I had a hard time believing it wasn’t the Babylon Bee and satire.  The author claimed that there is a Greek word that actually means “lard butt.”  I can’t find it in my Bible software so I will take his word for it.  And did you know that in 2015 there were 4,800 butt lifts.  I assume the number is approximate.

If you are tired of worrying about the political future of our country then you might want to take a break and see what some people are spending their time thinking about.  I am guessing that the author and the people who frequent this site are all Biden voters.

  1. I could tell you at least part of the reason they want big butts, but not on here.
