Ordinarily, I’m not amused by internet humor, such as the lip syncs of famous people uttering improbable words. The video that follows, however, struck my funny bone for some reason. If you watch it and don’t like it, you’ll have wasted 1 minute and 19 seconds (which are non-refundable!) but I’d advise you to give it a shot.
The comedic bit trades on Alexandria Ocaiso-Cortez’s most recent selfie-video, a short clip of which is here. In it she is she appears assembling IKEA furniture while sipping wine, munching on snacks, and lecturing the American people (sometimes with her mouth full) on global warming, the border crisis, the evil border patrol, and too much more. The whole thing comes off as pretty pedantic and preachy.
The send-up is performed by Randy Savage (aka @_hublette), whose Twitter bio identifies her as “The Unfeminist. Not a dude at all maybe. I ♥ fitness, guns & toxic, masculinity.” I find it pretty spot-on.
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
HAPPY FRIDAY @AOC
We all know a staffer picked up that IKEA furniture for you as a prop. pic.twitter.com/ERr7zVEqO7— Randy Savage (@_hublette) April 5, 2019
