You can treat scabies by buying horse medicine (Ivermectin) at a tractor supply store

you just go to the Tractor Supply store and get Ivermectin if you think you have scabies... you get it like a tractor supply store because you get the horses. If you can't get from your doctor, they sell it in big tubes like toothpaste.

While Ivermectin is used for scabies in humans, using veterinary-grade horse paste is dangerous and not medically recommended for humans by the FDA.

Ages 21 through 26 are the 'prime stains' years for a man's clothing

I would expect that at 23 years old, you would have some just random stains on you... I'd say if you're 23, I would expect that to. It's like 21 through 26 is that's Prime stains.

NBA 'Aura' rings prove that the wealthy have access to secret medical technology

Why doesn't everybody have a titanium ring that will tell you 3 days in advance if you're going to get [the virus]? It essentially confirms what we all knew but didn't fully know that rich people just have medicine and technology that the rest of us can't have access to that will keep them alive forever.

While Oura rings exist and were used, the claim that they keep the wealthy alive forever is satirical exaggeration.

Netflix's Outer Banks is a bad show that is also good

I like Outer Banks. It's such a bad show. It's so bad. It's become good. It reminds me of all my favorite action movies with Steven Seagal and Jean-Claude Van Damme... it is so bad, and I'm learning nothing. I'm getting dumber.

This is a subjective aesthetic judgment on the 'so bad it's good' quality of the show.

Porn sites are pushing specific genres to collect blackmail dirt on the entire country

I think that the porn sites have been complicit recently... on most major porn sites, they feature heavily the whole stepson-stepdaughter dynamic even if you never click on those videos and watch them, they're pushing those on you. I think that they've been doing that so that now they know that anyone that's been to one of these websites has either accidentally or on purpose clicked on one of those, so they have dirt on everybody in America almost.

This is a comedic conspiracy theory and cannot be verified as factual intent by adult websites.

Darren Rovell's Kate Upton story is actually a flex on his 'talent scouting' ability

Darren Ravel posting this literally has nothing to do with him wanting to have sex with Kate Upton. It's just him trying to flex on everybody and being like I I recognize that this woman was going to be very attractive... I have a great eye for talent.

Betting every single moneyline underdog is a winning strategy

I love 11 Moneyline underdogs. ... It worked out really well for me last week, and I'm very concerned because I know it's probably not going to work out as well. ... I've convinced so many people in the office that it's a winning strategy.

Betting 11 random NFL moneyline underdogs in a single week is statistically likely to result in a loss unless there is massive parity, which rarely hits at that scale.
