    Also, "slammed" in the article. I think that word needs to leave journalism. The story is real and important, but the hyperbole is distracting. Seems kinda weird that they think people need to be fed news WWE style: "Wait! What's this?! It's Obama with a steel chair!!"

    I don't want to see "slammed" in another headline until someone actually gets body slammed through a table on the House floor.

  • Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the most chaotic debate in Washington! The House chamber is absolutely erupting as AOC and Mike Johnson go toe-to-toe over the latest bill! Johnson has the floor, but AOC is having none of it! She’s firing back with point after point, the chamber roaring like a sold-out arena! Oh, wait! AOC is getting out of her chair. She's sprinting down the aisle. Here comes Steve Scalise. He's up and running toward her. Holy cow! Ihan Omar is running across the table tops! She’s leapt into the air. Wow! Flying side kick straight into Scalise. She's got him down on the floor and is pummeling him mercilessly. Hakeem Jeffries is...uh...lying back in his chair, talking on the phone with his donors. More on that later, but back to the action! Here comes Jim Jordan and he's got a chair! He's taking a swing at AOC, and oh my god! It's Adam Schiff with a gavel! Right to the head! Jordan is out! AOC has reached the podium. She's got Johnson by the Collar, making him look like a dork made of limp spaghetti noodles, which is his baseline, but perhaps he looks it more now than ever. She's got him up. Oh my, wow, right through the table! AOC has slammed Mike Johnson right through a table on the house floor! One! Two! Three! He's out cold! The Sergeant at Arms Raises AOCs hand in the air! H.R. 11,001 passes the House by TKO! The bill to outlaw recreational immigrant hunting is going to the Senate!

    Did you hit “post” too early? You just posted a single word that was already in the title

    I was making fun of the overuse of that word being in headlines

    Oh. Do you think it was funny, or added anything to the conversation?

    I do. I don't dwell on voting points too much, but given that they're there to look at it would appear as though I'm not alone.

    This isn’t reddit, what a lame excuse

    “Being obnoxious in public is fine because a few other chuds agree with me.” Live your life however you choose, but try to make better decisions. The ones from today don’t look very good on you.

    What exactly do you think you added to the conversation? You don't seem to understand how a comment section works.

    You can get upset at the original lazy commenter if you like

    Hope your day gets better, you sound really upset about a comment on the internet

    Lol you're barking up the wrong tree. I have no doubt that I am much happier than you.
