@WGR550 My theory, he looks skinny due to camera lens effect on the left side of a cropped image. Make him the focal point of the image and he'll magically fill out! Look at the size of the orange containers behind him how the ones on the far left look smaller.

@robyn_emz Ewwww so many living voice talents at risk from this kind of nonsense

@ThighDoctor @JeremyWGR Haha I toil elsewhere but if Bills want my services I'm easy to reach and remain optimistic/hopeful about Kincaid's development with the team.

[Ryan Pierce @cbcrp]

@ThighDoctor @JeremyWGR Adding to my lens effect theory: look at the orange containers to the right of Kincaid, to my eye they are noticeably wider than the same containers to his left. Hard to say without seeing the original.

[Ryan Pierce @cbcrp]

@ThighDoctor @JeremyWGR Not to discredit you analysis and I maybe ignorant of other info you have but as far as weight/appearance goes there may be some lens effect pinching his appearance here, where he is on the far left side of an edited picture that clearly has another subject centred.

@lexisfriend Based on what my former high school friends out West share on social media, the answer is definitely no. They've tuned out of anything that involves a fact check or journalistic standards. Comedy/satire still has a chance of breaking thru to them...maybe.

@EScrimshaw Hovered over the unfollow button for a second, not gonna lie.

@Seahawk17 Chad thinks I said Elon bought votes in Wisconsin, I did not. In the thread before the block, another listener even cosigns that I said what I said. Blocked for name calling and bad faith arguments (ie) waste of time engaging. Complain to the Ombudsman if you feel so strongly!

@Seahawk17 @valentino_nora Oh I checked the tape. And the result is that you are getting an upgrade from mute to block for wasting my time! 👋

[Ryan Pierce @cbcrp]

@valentino_nora @Seahawk17 Leaving this conversation now. Good day to you both.

[Ryan Pierce @cbcrp]

@valentino_nora @Seahawk17 You're welcome.

[Ryan Pierce @cbcrp]

@Seahawk17 Not engaging in a back and forth on this. Here's a detailed article on who got the $. They both publicly supported the Republican candidate and signed a petition to that effect. I didn't say that's why they got the $ --just that they had pledged support. https://t.co/erq6bSzZw8

@sanstitre2000 Do yourself a favour and get a hold of the 3D Blu-Ray of Cave of Forgotten Dreams with a projector and some glasses. 🤯

@maddenifico Gary also has a Youtube channel with longer videos. He recently returned to posting after an extended break last year. https://t.co/BEnqPRysHx

@JefferyThomas @cwebbonline As of 2020 data 56% of adult Americans struggle to read above a Grade 6 level. Steady decline in literacy over the past 3 decades. Similar trend here in Canada btw, and likely worse since the pandemic. Hence, misinformation thrives.

Two proposed class actions filed this week in U.S. District Court claim that four leading potato companies — including two Canadian ones — have privately swapped intel to inflate the price of frozen potato goods over the last several years. https://t.co/ELelZ6y6K2
