I swear I was sober and alert when I read, “[A perfectly reasonable Amy Schumer about things happening to Trump](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/a-perfectly-reasonable-amount-of-schadenfreude-about-things-happening-to-trump-his-enablers-part-2/984250)”

From “Amount of Schadenfreude” to “Amy Schumer” is an awfully big leap. But then, Amy Schumer is awfully funny. Maybe she has some clever things to say about Trump.

The infamous capital i/lowercase L confusion strikes again when I found an old thread. It’s not about a bot meant to mimic the former Senator:

This one appeared a couple hours ago …

**[Texas! [insert retching noises]](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/taxes-insert-retching-noises/999410/3)**

I jumped on the thread to tell the OP we already had a very nice thread for Texas-bashing, but it turns out that’s not what it’s about.

Not quite in the _spirit_ of this thread, but a misread custom tag, from @What_Exit 🙂
