You're too focused on the word "extraordinary" but all this adage is meant to convey is that claims require evidence. If you ignore the word "extraordinary" the point remains the same.

The phrase is popular among skeptics because we deal with a lot of paranormal claims. And paranormal claims are by definition, extraordinary.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, Trump says lots of things and contradicts them the very next day. We already went through four years of this stupid policy volatility during his first administration... Fuck. I'm so exhausted and it's only April of year 1.

True. Say what you will about prop comedy but Carrot Top didn't get famous because he was bad at it.

With that kind of naiveté it's remarkable he even has a business to lose, but sadly, I have no doubt he's every bit as stupid as he seems. I deal with a lot of very dumb small business owners in my own industry.

Yeah, the funniest part is he's such a bad negotiator that Tony Schwartz, a ghostwriter, got his name on the cover. That's basically unheard of.

And yet he went with a full, big, heavy prop for a tired pun.

Never go full Carrot Top.

Yep. Trump's going to contradict this statement within 24hrs, guaranteed.

You're telling me the guy who thought this was hilarious, isn't funny?

Yeah, that tracks.

Edit: For anyone OOTL he walked into Twitter HQ with a sink and tweeted "Entering Twitter HQ - let that sink in!"

Tech billionaire Elon Musk dismissed the wave of “Hands Off!” protests held across the U.S. on Sunday, accusing demonstrators of being manipulated by unseen political operatives.

“The problem is the puppet masters, not the puppets, as the latter have no idea why they are even there,” Musk posted

Elon's projecting on more screens than a Marvel movie.

The reaction in the town of 8,500 residents may show the limits of support for President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown in a majority Hispanic region dotted with fields of cotton, sugarcane and red grapefruit where Republicans made gains in last year’s elections. Cameron County voted for a GOP president for the first time since 2004. For neighboring Starr County, it was the first time since 1896.

This is what you voted for.
