New in PJ Media:
Minority view: Will Ferrell was never funny. Instead, he is one of the depressing legions of post-Steve Martin, post-Robin Williams comedians who are just bursting with an overpowering awareness of their own cuteness, and seem to spend more time mugging and cajoling the audience into agreeing that they’re funny instead of actually trying to be funny. Now Ferrell has reinforced the off-putting aspects of his public persona by publishing a new self-conscious advertisement for his own alleged funniness, in which he issues an unmistakable threat to Trump voters. Haha, it’s all in fun! What’s the matter, can’t you take a joke? No, not after two assassination attempts. No, I can’t.
Fox News reported Sunday that “in an official Harris campaign ad, Ferrell jokingly threatens voters if they don’t vote for Harris.” If you can stand Will Ferrell’s overwhelming awareness of how riotously funny he thinks he is, you can see the ad here. Ferrell intones solemnly: “This election is going to be one of the closest in history. Your vote will make the difference.”
That’s where the ad runs off the rails. As the camera moves in close to his craggy face, Ferrell anticipates an objection: “That means you, Gary. ‘Oh, blah blah blah, I’m just one person.’ No. Shut the f— up, Gary.”
Charming. “Gary” is supposed to be the average voter, the ordinary American whom the leftist elites (such as Will Ferrell) hold in contempt and don’t think have the sense to know whom to vote for unless Will Ferrell goes out to yell at them.
“Last time,” Ferrell continues, “only a few thousand votes kept Trump out of office. And this time, we will hold you personally responsible, Gary.”
Har har. That wouldn’t even be funny under ordinary circumstances, but we are not living in ordinary times, and it’s something worse than not funny. Leftist nutters have tried to murder Donald Trump twice. Will Ferrell’s Hollywood pals, including Madonna and Robert DeNiro, have threatened physical violence against Trump (and let’s not forget Kathy Griffin and her severed Trump head). have Innocent Americans who did nothing more than walk into the Capitol building when police held open the doors for them are still being given draconian sentences and held in inhuman conditions in order to buttress the left’s false narrative of a Jan. 6 “insurrection.”
Old Joe Biden also did his best to buttress the left’s hysterical claim that patriots constitute a threat to “our democracy” in his infamous red-and-black speech of Sept. 1, 2022, when he said that “Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic.”
There is more. Read the rest here.
Emilie Green says
“Vote for Kamala, Or Else”
Else being “more cowbell.”
Which quite obviously is the only thing ringing inside Ferrell’s head.

I approve of this message.

Yesterday, on one show, I heard that “Gary” is the male equivalent of “Karen”. Essentially, a neo-racist cuss name for an annoying White male. Although Biden’s version of him is “Jack”
Yeah, this simultaneous wave of patronizing and hectoring is certainly endearing to men, whether White, Black, Hispanic or Asian. Certainly makes me itch to fill up a ballot for Kamala
No, “Gary”, I’ve voted. Voted Trump. And my reason #8675309 for voting for him is that you disapprove, which is a great reason in & of itself

I thought a male “Karen” was a “Chad”–but “Gary” may be used, as well, for all I know. Nasty, in any case.
WPM says
Yes ,sure I will obey an actor like Will Ferrell who plays the same part in every movie he has ever made. Why should anyone make important decisions or follow advice from rich idiots who make their living playing make believe and have not live in the real world in years. These people who are interaction with people outside their “trade” is the people they hire to clean their houses ,walk their dogs ,drive their cars ,cook their meals , they would all be happy to pay illegals off the books to do those jobs because they work cheaper.

Or else he’ll make another movie. Or something.
From where do idiots like him get the idea they can decide such things for others? Hollywood’s branch of the taliban.

Will Ferrel Quintessential A Hole
Andrew says
I would belittle Will Ferrell like Sean Connery (portrayed by Darrell Hammond) did on SNL’s Celebrity Jeopardy
Isabella van der westhuizen says
Now that you mention it, Will Ferrel is not nearly as laugh out loud funny as Steve Martin or Robin Williams and compared to Leslie Neilson in airplane and naked gun he is abominable. The wokes really ruin everything.

Shaking in my boots!

He’s pretty tall, but apart from that hard to be too scared of a guy perhaps most famous for playing an elf…

Will Ferrell Threatens Voters: Vote for Kamala, Or Else
…………………………………….
Ugly stuff-and not in the least funny.
Mark Spahn (West Seneca, NY) says
“Innocent Americans who did nothing more than walk into the Capitol building when police held open the doors for them are still being given draconian sentences and held in inhuman conditions in order to buttress the left’s false narrative of a Jan. 6 “insurrection.””
Huh? Court sentences are still being imposed on participants in an “insurrection” that took place on January 6, 2021 — more than 3 1/2 years ago? Why such a delay?
somehistory says
One reason is because they are still arresting people. Another is, they have been dragging it out as part of the punishment. Many of the defendants have died before being sentenced.
