## Resource

Welcome back to Vile And Horrendous. Big episode today featuring longest You're Wrong we've ever done, a brand new segment, a protraction, and some deeply vile Pig Talk.We kick things off with the debut of PSA, a new segment where the internet teaches us something we actually need to know. Today's lesson: fathers, please do not buy your sons prostitutes. Interpret that however you'd like. Then a retraction that flips into a protraction. A commenter informed me, somewhat condescendingly, that egg rolls were invented in Canada. I did my research. He's wrong. New York City, 1930s. This country's greatness remains intact. From there, the big one. I couldn't figure out what to write about all week, and then it hit me: I'm completely overwhelmed. I don't know what the hell is going on anymore. News outlets using Gen Z slang, adults desperately chasing youth culture, a proposed age cap on social media, Instagram then versus Instagram now, a man convinced by ChatGPT he was on a world-saving mission, and a deeply personal story about how my mother's compliments led me directly to the John Casablancas Modeling School in a Norristown, Pennsylvania strip mall. Reality is no longer real, people. We close with two dog-themed Pig Talk stories, one involving a bucket toilet and a very unfortunate homecoming, and one I'm fairly certain is fake and refuse to finish reading.
