When I was a pup, this was a dream job. Dress in next to nothing, sit on a high perch and look at babes in bikinis all day. Once in awhile you’d blow your whistle and, more rarely, dive into the water.

Lifeguarding is all fun and games until Cornpop and his homies show up!

It’s only fun until Corn Pop shows up and wants to fight.

There’s something wrong with this nation’s young men.

Damn near 40 aint that young. Look at the dude. You think he can save you drowning? Have a feeling that you will need 2 life guards since he brags that he barely passed. Its his dream jopb because he gets to look at you g girls, sits on his ass in the sun and blow a whistle. After labor day, he goes back into reality!

Cornpop was a bad dude. I wouldn’t dismiss his dangerousness just because he’s dead.

“Whistle blowers wanted” is a caption that the OP should have removed. See the link in #2 and scroll down, watching on the left hand side.

—”Cornpop was a bad dude. I wouldn’t dismiss his dangerousness just because he’s dead.”

It is my opinion that Pop’s existence or nonexistence is totally dependent on joe the jamoke?

Corn Pop is likely a fig-newton of joe the jamoke’s imagination.

Yes it is.

They were sugar pops in dementia joes day.

Corn Pop makes no sense at all.

Sugar Smack would have worked but dementia joe isn’t to quick on his feet.

Though Biden has always been a shameless liar, and greatly exaggerates even true stories I’m willing to believe that Cornpop really did exist, that his real name was William Morris, that he really was a bad dude, and that Biden really did have some sort of confrontation with him.
