The confusing part is why Bailey replaced change. There's no wordplay. It's not absurdist. It's just smashing two things together.

My guess for BSB is some overpaid consultant suggested Warren's campaign should have a mascot, and the resulting brainstorming session among her creative genius plan-makers, involving ideas like "her pet dog" and "our campaign slogans that barely get any play", produced the most illegible publicity stunt in recent history. Say what you will about Buttigieg, at least he's sticking to tried-and-true CIA brainwashing techniques.

the absolute most benefit of the doubt you could give them is that the big parade dog had to have structural integrity. but yeah it's just word salad/pastiche

Is that why I'm seeing ten articles a day about how Pete has surged 10 points in every swing state in spite of all evidence to the contrary?

When I talk to Democrats who are even older than me, something I've noticed getting repeated a lot is that they want someone who is "presidential" and "moderate." The first means a man who is old but not too old. The second means absolutely nothing. So Buttigieg might not be the synthesis of Obama and Romney; he might be the synthesis of Obama and Kasich. He's too young, though, and he looks like Chucky.

Halloween Jack posted:Why would you ever want to deal with anything in your life without resorting to indecipherable academic language? I would suggest that the "template" was there so you could figure out a different way of saying, on your own words, what said indecipherable academic language. I'm sure that in the near future, someone is going to articulate the same matter in a less wordy (and admittedly emotionally detached) and talk about it on Street Fight or The Thrillbillies. https://twitter.com/Random_Factor/status/1197164711378391042

Presidential also means that he never gets obviously angry, because it would give away that politics is more than a game that can always be arm's length

So, like, I tried to read through the 1000+ tweets that person tweeted about appreciating a prefacing text asking to vent or w/e and couldn't. Instead, I'll point out that if someone uses the term 'wellness' I'm going to be immediately skeptical.
