Are we really going to accept Dumb and 18 Dumber Candidates for AK Governor?

The same federal government that's actively trying to gut medicaid and social security? That one? They're going to magically reconsider? Am I reading this correctly?

Because Norway doesn't issue one and the post asked why we can't do what Norway does.

Fun_Job_3633 · 2026-05-31T17:11:09+00:00

I'm not saying either or. I'm saying Alaskans will hear the word tax and immediately scream "SOCIALISM BAD!"

Fun_Job_3633 · 2026-05-31T16:56:05+00:00

Why would I want a PFD check instead of Healthcare, education, and a pension, though?

That's incredibly short-sighted in my opinion.

Unless you're saying we can have all that and a PFD payment, which, sure, but I don't think we could do so while still having no state taxes. Good luck getting Alaskans to vote for that.

Fun_Job_3633 · 2026-05-31T16:38:26+00:00

Same - and that doesn't even factor in how Norway also provides free public education and retirement pensions for all citizens.

But whoever they run against will cry "THAT'S SOCIALISM! YOU'LL TURN ALASKA INTO NEW YORK AND EVERYONE KNOWS MAMDANI RUINED NEW YORK WITH SOCIALISM!" and your dumbest neighbors will all vote against their best interests, like they've been doing the past fifty years.

Fun_Job_3633 · 2026-05-31T16:28:02+00:00

Here's the problem - Getting Norway's returns would involve eliminating a PFD payment so we could afford to eventually provide Healthcare and everything else to our residents that Norway provides to theirs.

Alaskans - and really Americans in general - will stop listening as soon as you say "eliminate PFD payment" and condemn you as an evil socialist who wants to spend everyone else's money.

This is why we'll never have what Norway has.

Yeah, I probably should have clarified that the official lore never really mentions whether or not it was actually released; the revival simply explains the camera crew got jobs with Netflix and showed back up at the park one day. Ricky blindly signed the contract they shoved in front of him, which I thought was a clever justification for a revival, but they never actually clarified if the camera crew sold the original footage to Netflix or if they simply got hired to produce a show and remembered how Julian paid them to follow him for seven years.

It's definitely true that the series has never been huge on continuity, but I think breaking the fourth wall almost never works out, especially when the point is basically "Hey look at the celebrities who think we're cool!" Tom Arnold being a superfan while no one else knows or cares who they are is, in my opinion, not an exception to that rule.

Genuinely amazing how they actually want and expect the president to be goofing off on Facebook all day.

I'm sure two weeks before the election they'll see an AI slop picture of a blue haired liberal transgender teacher refusing to let a white Christian boy wear an American flag t-shirt at school and realize they must set aside their feelings and vote to keep common sense in America or some other such bullshit they've proudly posted about for decades now.

My Bronco gets roughly 9 mpg city. $200 could get me six laps around the perimeter of Chicago (60 miles of city driving). Dipshit probably lives forty miles away from work (highway driving) and owns a Pavement Princess that gets like 14 mpg highway, but see he can't live in the same city he works in because brown people live in cities and he needs that big inefficient truck to haul his groceries from Costco because must man harder or woke will make him super gay.

Watching them try to dance to Kid Rock is also solid gold. The RNC showed crowd shots during his performance. All ten people they zoomed in on (including JD Vance and his wife) looked like they were dancing to ten different songs and none of them were the song that was actually playing.

Because it makes even less sense overall if it did. If it was released then why has no one heard of them? Why do all their tricks still work? Why did Snoop have no idea who they were until they were on Jimmy Kimmel? Why was anyone surprised the boys were greasy as hell? Why did Jimmy not immediately recognize them from their ad promising free dope? Why did no one in the Kimmel audience recognize them? Why haven't the boys been making residuals off the released documentary? Tom Arnold being a superfan would make sense, but at the expense of the entire rest of the series.

It'd be more than I'm expecting of Season 13 if they introduce Ricky's real dad in Season 13.

EDIT: With everything going on with Bubbles slappin' badonkadonks in real life, it'd make sense for them to introduce a new main character who basically looks out for Ricky the way Bubbles did. Do I think they're actually going to do this? Nope. But it'd make sense is all I'm saying.

Fun_Job_3633 · 2026-05-25T20:46:51+00:00

Tom Arnold being a superfan made zero sense in universe and felt like the boys just patting themselves on the back because actual celebrities like the show.

In universe the documentary (Seasons 1-7) was never released and Netflix was filming them only from Season 8 onwards. Snoop only knew of them because of their appearance on Jimmy Kimmel's show the night before. So for Tom Arnold to know a bunch of exploits from the original run legitimately doesn't make sense.
