    Did y’all know that “nimrod” didn’t mean idiot until Bugs Bunny said it? Nimrod was a biblical king who was supposed to be a mighty hunter. In an episode with Elmer Fudd Bugs was like ‘What a Nimrod we got here’ or some shit like that. Nobody got the reference, but everyone picked up on the fact that it was meant to be insulting, and so we all just assumed that nimrod meant idiot and now it does.

      Hehehehe, imagine being a mighty warrior in your time and 400ish years later your name gets dragged into the shit by a talking animated rabbit

        Imagine being such a good writer/animator/voice actor you can recontextualize a name traditionally associated with a mighty hunter/monarch into a being that of a dingus that keeps being outsmarted by a wisecracking rabbit with a new York accent.

    I love the Nimrod album. I hate Trump. Could there be a more perfect shirt for me?

    I don’t know about all of you, but I’d honestly be afraid of wearing this out and about. I live in a conservative part of the US.

    I do love it though, I may pick one up and just wear it in the right company.

      That sucks. They’ve never been my go-to but I will never not enjoy 21st Century Breakdown. They just really nailed it sometimes, pure energy.

    All these clowns are doing is giving Trump even more free publicity. In my opinion this is just as fucking stupid as Trump selling his own mugshot apparel.
