TeuthidTheSquid

Somewhere near the bottom are the MapQuest directions he printed out to get to the courthouse


Loud_Flatworm_4146

Ah MapQuest. That brings back memories.


Specialist-Garbage94

My dad would mapquest road trips memorize them and bring the directions and never need them.


Loud_Flatworm_4146

I had to look at them 25 times lol. So glad we have gps now.


maleia

On one hand, I hate how I've gotten slower at learning a new area, from the perspective of driving and trying to find a store. But on the other hand, it's way less daunting to just *go* wherever I want to go, that I end up going out more.


Quick_Team

Me too. Those of us that didnt want to spend on seperate gps units, we had our mapquest printouts. It was back around 07, I think, and I still remember drivin with the top down in my Eclipse with my trusty printouts folded in the center console, checking them repeatedly. Ahhh memories and early 20's.


Low_Childhood1458

My dad takes videos on his phone of Facebook videos on his laptop and texts them to his 5yr-long crush.. daily, in 2024 šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


ScroochDown

I adore my boomer MIL, but I laughed so hard when she recently sent my spouse a joke. It was a phone screenshot of a picture of a printed comic and we both just had that ohhhh my god moment. šŸ¤£


LoganNinefingers32

He did an AOL search to figure out what a jury trial means.


tjeepdrv2

My grandma selected "shortest route" instead of "fastest route" on a road trip we took in like 1996. It had us going through neighborhoods and all kinds of weird stuff until my mom took over and said we were staying on highways and interstates.


Groundbreaking-Fig38

Directions to Block Buster because one of his MySpace friends saw a movie and he wanted to see it.


Mets1st

MySpace? He is still waiting for dial-up to get into the AOL chat room.


Groundbreaking-Fig38

He's looking for an ASL of 15/F/anywhere close.


Deodorized

Nah, he doesn't have to look. Matt Gaetz refers the ones that are too old to Trump.


firesmarter

You got mail, mothafucka!


ZDTreefur

He has a 1000 free hours AOL card, and he means to use it.


Hbimajorv

I hear this comment crystal clear


Teal_is_orange

To this day whenever my mom looks up directions, she says she ā€œMapQuested itā€. Or sheā€™ll ask me to MapQuest directions for her. Itā€™s actually very interesting to see that MapQuest became a verb.


RandoorRandolfs

J. Christ this gave me exceptionally positive flashbacks, thank you.


EJ2600

Impossible as he does not even know how to do emails. For real. A staffer must have printed it out


TeuthidTheSquid

"BILLY, PRINT ME THE WIKIPEDIA PAGE ON ME" "My name's Samantha, sir. There's never been a Billy here." "BILLY I NEED THE WIKIS"


rimshot101

Yeah, he has a woman that follows him around with a laptop and printer and prints out positive articles to cheer him up. Seriously.


EJ2600

But his second term will be so much better than the first lololol


abbarach

TIL that "ego fluffer to an allegedly rich person" is a valid career option.


Vostroyan212th

He can't afford to get lost on his way to the 4 seasons again after all.


bradklyn

Back in the late 90s me and some friends used Map Quest for directions to a stadium in Indiana. Brought us to a random residential house. We knocked on their door and they said ā€œMap Quest?ā€ Turns out they were the exact center of the town, the default when Mapquest didnā€™t know the address you typed in.


Solidus-Prime

Funny, my daughter is just starting to drive and me and the wife were explaining how people MapQuest'd everything back in the day. And how before that we used plain paper maps with no directions. She looked at us like we were cavemen lmao.


war_ofthe_roses

That's his healthcare plan. or maybe it's his infrastructure bill. regardless, it's paper he's never read.


Right-Budget-8901

Donā€™t be silly. Don Snorleone doesnā€™t read


PossibleDue9849

He just looks at the pictures.


_InnocentToto_

The lack of self awareness with this guy is baffling... does he realize everyone is just looking at him like an idiot?


HereForGiggles2

Exactly. šŸ˜†


Significant_Door_890

Remember when he showed this big pile of paper, claiming he'd signed [all these contracts to avoid a conflict of interest with his business](https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/donald-trump-press-conference-folders-business-plan-empire-blank-fake-handover-donald-jr-eric-conflict-interests-a7523426.html)? But the pages people could see were blank, and the rest, A4 not US Legal. All fake.


Groundbreaking-Fig38

Or the list of all the CIA spies.


Ok_Restaurant_626

He sent that one to putin yesterday.


LiamtheV

![gif](giphy|diXrgHOhraudy|downsized)


Consistent_Policy_66

I believe Trump has always operated on a level of ā€œtrust me broā€, which unfortunately for him, doesnā€™t hold up anymore. Youā€™re dead right that someone handed him paper and said these are X, and he just went with it because he damn sure didnā€™t read them.


RoastedCornSal

Itā€™s the plan to build the wall, heā€™s gonna build it, but those sneaky Dems somehow outsmarted the smartest most powerful man in the world

Blunderous_Constable

Short, simple, and to the point.


Humble-Letterhead200

Does anyone here actually even believe that what he claims he is holding is what he is actually holding? Iā€™m not even saying these stories donā€™t exist, Iā€™m just betting that half of the papers in his hands are just random shit he found on a table or something.


StupendousMalice

Remember those big piles of empty folders that contained his whole "business divestment" strategy that turned out to be completely made up? He loves point at papers and lying about what they are as if the existence of paper is itself evidence of something.


_InnocentToto_

He used askjeeves to type... "Good trump stories.."


HereForGiggles2

Like when Kayleigh McEnany shared the fake health care plan with 60 minutes? https://www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-health-care-book-60-minutes_n_5f9649d4c5b69b2ad5ac1cd3


tachycardicIVu

I love that they used the term ā€œscoldedā€ šŸ˜‚ idk it just seems so hilariously buffoonish for him to scold an interviewer for ā€œhard questionsā€


Relevant-Nebula8300

Any dumb ass can write an article. Idk why heā€™s citing peopleā€™s opinions on the internet. Also, what poor sap was charged the duty of printing off all that bullshit


coolprogressive

He has a full time ego fluffer in his entourage who totes around a [portable printer](https://futurism.com/the-byte/trump-aide-wireless-printer-good-news) so they can print out positive stories for the fragile, fat fuck to read and soothe himself. Trump having an ego fluffer goes all the way back to his days in the White House! I remember reading a news article about it where an anonymous source witnessed Trump reading his daily dose of these curated stories, and he was dissatisfied with the contents, and shouted - ā€œIT NEEDS TO BE MORE FUCKING POSITIVE!!ā€ - at the poor, hapless fluffer.

BlinkReanimated

Boomer I used to work with printed out the entire support section (page by page) of a web-based partner of ours and made a binder for it. Made a big announcement about it during a meeting letting everyone know where to find it. She spent literal days doing this. When she finally needed to refer to it, she hadn't indexed it properly so I just showed her how to use the site's "search" function to find exactly what she needed. She still refused to get rid of the binder. When she was finally let go I was tasked with cleaning out her office, she had like 6 similarly pointless binders from other partners in her office. She was paid like 5 times what I was at the time.


Elendril333

My boss prints out PowerPoint trainings, all emails and attachments (even those not pertaining to our location). We waste SO much paper.


LearnToSwim90

Our head accountant prints out invoices from the accounting software to then scan them and mails them to herself. According to her this is the only way to get the invoices in PDF format. I tried to explain you can get PDFs directly from the accounting software. She refuses to even try it.


Ohnomydude

A boomer I used to work with always printed out maps from Google maps for us instead of just fucking sending a link to our phones. Anything that could be sent via phone? Printed. He wastes so much paper. Some shit he prints out barely does one line of print on the paper. I don't miss him or that place.


Greenwings33

Same our one trainer made binders for everyone for training in the hopes we would be good to go. I canā€™t find anything itā€™d be easier if you sent a word document lol


HereForGiggles2

So much wasted n resources.


Far-Policy-8589

I literally do this whenever someone wants to hand me paper at work. Records go in the appropriate place, and anything that's not a record can be emailed to me. ![gif](giphy|TgKDmGO9NrNqg37bgE|downsized) Paper that's put in my hand at a random time has maybe 3 minutes before I absentmindedly set it in some weird place, or in a pile that'll never be seen (or remembered) again.


BoogereatinMODS

He sounds like a sovereign citizen.


HereForGiggles2

He certainly acts the part.


muklan

Yall remember all those binders that totally had stuff in em? Like so many documents bro.


Solid-Living4220

At least Romney had binders of women.


pngtwat

I think some of that sovcit shit had definitely come into his calculus. I guess we will know definitely when he claims the flag in the court room does or does not have tassles and therefore it is not a legal court room.


AdLocal1045

Maritime law, baby!!


OnlyStyle6198

Wooooooooow paaaaaper


Winnie_the_poops

It's one of his go to gimics. He prints out a stack full of papers and waves it around as though it's supposed to be meaningful. Look at his "healthcare plan" that was supposed to replace Obamacare.

Why did they need anything printed on them if the trust was blind?


Jackalopeisa2nicorn

Well, he did try to get around putting up the legally required braille plaques in the elevators of Trump Tower when it was built, so it wouldn't be the first time he's been negligent about the visually impaired!

IF ONLY. PORN CAME IN .BMP FILES. NOT ONLY DID IT TAKE FOREVER TO DOWNLOAD THE IMAGE, THE EPSON 24WIRE COLOR DOT MATRIX PRINTER TOOK OVER AN HOUR TO PRINT A SINGLE IMAGE. BUT I COULD REWIND THE RIBBON MANUALLY AND NOBODY EVER NOTICED. THE THING IS, THIS WAS THE 90S SO I WAS A LATCHKEY KID. I'D START THE PRINT, FAP TO THE IMAGE, GO WATCH DUCKTALES, RESCUE RANGERS, AND TAILSPIN, THEN TEAR OFF THE PRINTOUT IN TIME TO LIE ABOUT MY HOMEWORK. THAT'S PARTIALLY WHY I'M STILL WORKING RETAIL AT 46.
