This is by far the most offensive. How about that white-haired so-called “dr”. I don’t even know what he’s pushing because I hit the mute button so fast. Then I fast-forward him. He is all over the place.

One night they attempted to play 15” of commercials. I know because I counted while dragging the button through each commercial.

is attaching the beloved Doobie Brothers 'Listen to the Music' to that particular chore. They should have went with something better suited, like this:
