    Well played, Obama...

    Just ran out of pretzels to eat while I wait for my wife to get back from her training.

    Thanks, Obama.

      Not really, no... and the page it goes to won't load.

      Edit: got the page to load. It's a bunch of comments with no apparent content on which TO comment, which makes even less sense than merely not loading. Could somebody please explain, in text, what this is supposed to be about?

        It's Obama's take on the "Thanks Obama" meme.

          What's the big deal? It's a self deprecating video. So what?

          I thought it was funny.
          Good news! Your insurance company says they'll cover you. Unfortunately, they also say it will be with dirt.

            Well it was originally used unironically (originally with the ACA) as a "something bad happened to me, it must be Obama's fault somehow because I hate him", then devolved into the meme of "something bad happened, it's Obama's fault somehow". Obama using it was more taking the piss on it than self depreciating. A lot of Obama supporters are using the video to point how how stupid it is when their political opponents use it ironically.

              I have to go to work on Tuesday.

              Thanks, Obama.

                It's reddit. That site sucks too much of the time... is a lousy place to link to unless the content's not available anywhere else on the Internet.

                    So, in other words, it's self explanatory in no way whatsoever, not only not the URL, but not even on the page it links to either, because it's completely nonsensical without this information (and thank you for providing it) which is not contained in either of those places?

                    Looks that way.
