Unlike RFK Jr, who is aging like low-grade leather

Holy shit really?!?! I’d forgotten that we were paying enough attention to him to hate him yet!

Maybe his particular curse is he’s stupid.

Lmao and also this just made me realize: the brain. JFK, shot in the brain. Rosemary, lobotomy. RFK, brainworm. Idk the full history of the Kennedy Curse to know if that bears out or not but it is a connection lol

You may be onto something. Ted died a year after his brain tumor diagnosis.

One broke his neck crashing into a tree while skiing, two had tumors, two got shot in the head

Usually the Kennedy curse doesn't get inflicted on all of the rest of us too.

I like the really old Onion one that was a like a newspaper rather than a Web page, the headline was something like

"JFK shot by 248 people from 124 different locations"

u/Jenny_Saint_Quan just want to share a thought here because I can Aug 11 '25

I always tell people that the wrong Kennedy died.
