live news person / world's hairiest seventh grader reaction

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 27 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Cody's Showdy gets no respect.

I think it's consistently good occasionally great, and they crank out a lot of content (like besides weekly videos they do podcasts multiple times a week)

e; Oh, the show is called Some More News and the podcast is Even More News btw

[–] Lifecoach5000@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

I was made aware of his stuff after one of his appearances on the Behind The Bastards podcast. Some More News is good stuff!

[–] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's similar in terms of detail to Last Week Tonight but not as funny.

[–] Oni_eyes@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

It does get a lot more information and nuance though. Last week tonight only runs once a week. I don't know that Last Week Tonight cites all of their sources for each episode like Some More News does.

Turn out the only alive adult Cody is locked away in a room with only fox news and the communist Manifesto as info... For his safety of course

[–] NinePeedles@sh.itjust.works 41 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I had a friend named Cody who was a straight A student, changed schools in 7th grade, fell in with a bad group of kids, got into a car accident, fell into a coma, lost site in one eye, and now coaches snowboarding. Not dead, though

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

Not dead, though

Yes dead inside doesn’t count

[–] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 30 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Wait what about Doctor Mister Cody?

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Warmbo is actually his bodyguard, and the corn cream is actually antidote.

[–] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 month ago

Now we know why. It all makes sense. It's all a ploy to get his bodyguard paid in plain sight.

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Thought you were talking to me for a second

[–] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No no you are Mister doctor Cody

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

omg I’m so embarrassed you’re right

[–] TheImpressiveX@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago (2 children)
[–] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Oh we're using our superhero names? I'm Spider-Man.

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Maybe. Who am I to judge?

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 23 points 1 month ago (2 children)

That's because when they grow up it is no longer acceptable to use that nickname and they go by Codward instead.

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That's an Irish name and it's pronounced "Doug".

[–] fibojoly@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

I thought it was Codsworth

[–] Carvex@lemmy.world 23 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

I managed a Cody whom I called Codeine because he was a such a dope. 30ish, sold himself as a technician. In a car shop, pulled a ceiling mounted air hose over the left front fender to fill the rear tire, scratched the paint badly from the gritty hose. Left the bosses rolling stool under the alignment lift and heard plywood cracking as he lowered it, didn’t bother stopping until it was flat. Found out a week later he left the tierod nuts loose after adjustment. Left a flathead screwdriver in his back pocket and popped a hole in the customer seat. Worked one full day, sent home at lunch the next day with a full days pay, worth the price to get rid of him.

[–] DeceasedPassenger@lemmy.world 26 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I was thinking that was dude's first month from the way you were describing it. One day?! He's like a walking condom advertisement!

[–] WolfmanEightySix@piefed.social 13 points 1 month ago

Got a nickname like that in a day and a half.

[–] chrisbtoo@lemmy.ca 20 points 1 month ago (2 children)

That's because Cody is short for Come On Die Young.

I have a cousin named Cody... that I haven't seen since high school 🤔🤔🤔😯

[–] Goretantath@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Isnt there a youtuber called codyslab? He looks pretty old.

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago (2 children)

WhistlinDiesel is in his 20s too. Though portrays himself as having the intelligence of a 7th grader, so maybe that got him alived

Or switches to their middle name to avoid the shame of being "Cody."

[–] Blackout@fedia.io 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They usually change it back to Cod Liver Oil when they become adults

Cody's Showdy.

[–] deegeese@sopuli.xyz 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Nah, Cody teaches jujitsu at my kids’ afterschool program and looks to be in his early 30’s.

[–] SharkAttak@kbin.melroy.org 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

So you're going to need a replacement soon?

My uncle's name is Cody, he is 39. Unfortunately no one has strangled him yet. 🤞

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

The few codys I've met all wound up in logistics and/warehousing

[–] HappySkullsplitter@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

There are less than 300k people named Cody in the US

It's just not a very popular name

[–] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

The real name of Youtuber Alternate History hub is Cody, and he is probably in his Thirty's by now.

[–] HEXN3T@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 month ago

8th for me. Can confirm otherwise, though.

[–] logicbomb@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I don't know about "executed", but if you go by the Matchbox 20 song Kody, there might be some mental health problems.

[–] WolfmanEightySix@piefed.social 3 points 1 month ago

I’ve never met a Cody, period. They aren’t common here.

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Riptide anyone?

[–] Banana@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

A friend of my husband's is a Cody and teaches at their old school now!

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 3 points 1 month ago

I knew a Cody grade but I don't have any memories of him after that. Theory checks out..m

A disproportionate number of them become NFL quarterbacks. Who then end up playing for the Cleveland Browns, which kills them.

[–] hperrin@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

Cody & Ko! Noooo! Watch out!!
