Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
WWDTM: Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson
If you want to be elected governor of New Jersey, it's not enough to visit the state's diners. It's got the most of any state. It's not enough to eat the state's tomatoes. It produces the best in the nation. It's not enough to throw those tomatoes across the Hudson at Manhattan. You've got to pay homage to the ultimate political boss, the boss himself, Bruce Springsteen.

And so Democrat Josh Gottheimer proudly posted his Spotify rap list of his top songs for the year, all from Bruce, Thunder Road, Badlands, Rosalita. But now that Spotify rap list is part of his own political rap sheet, since it turns out he totally faked it. That's right. Oh, his pants are on fire. His real list does include the boss, but also Billy Joel.

Yikes, the guy who sang New York State of Mind. But Gottheimer isn't just any politician. When he was called out, he admitted the list was fake and blamed his two young children, who share his Spotify account for skewing the results. A true profile in courage. P.S., his dog's name is Rosalita, but she's actually a Bon Jovi fan.

I was really good. Okay, bye. But it was my birthright as a nerd to play Seymour.

Okay, I'm sorry. I'm feeling insecure right now. I feel like I'm getting already eclipsed.

So now that they've warned, this insurance company has warned people about this, then they will deny all claims.

Was your grandmother... just run-of-the-mill mean, or was she wicked?

I would do it if instead of handing out glasses of water, they were giving heavy hors d'oeuvres along the way.

Remember the Venus fly trap? Yes. I could order one by mail, and I was so excited to get a Venus fly trap. I think it was from Ronco, and I kept catching house flies. Did you really? I really did, and it was kind of great, because you put a fly in there, and then it would react, but I just choked that thing. I just kept putting so many flies.
Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!
WWDTM: Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson
Yes, I did. I mean, the last sound I heard was just crying, like, stop it, I can't...

Also, it's not a real six-pack. Ooh, the body! Really? No! I think it's photoshopped. It's not real. Mo Rocca.

Can I say, you really can't complain about health care if you're eating at McDonald's all the time. That's true. You brought on these problems yourself.
