"even my wife called me Brandon the other day."

Didn't Obama joke about the birth certificate controversy?

Let’s go, Brandon! — the backstory
This whole thing got started earlier this month, at the Talladega Superspeedway. Brandon Brown had just won a NASCAR race. And sportscaster Kelli Stavast at one point commented during an interview with Brown afterward how the crowd seemed to be chanting in his honor: ‘Let’s go, Brandon!”

Unfortunately, that’s not actually what they were chanting. Not even close. The crowd was very clearly addressing President Biden, not Brandon. Only, with an f-bomb in front of his name instead of “Let’s go!”

It was a very obvious attempt to cover up what was clearly being said.
It made the announcer look foolish, and thus became a cult classic.
We heard it chanted last week at the Perdue vs Wisconsin football game.

It's on the blinking display outside of our local motorcycle dealership. I had to explain it to my husband.

Thanks to everyone for explaining

My ex-neighbors never bothered with code. Their wifi network name changed from "Trump2020" to "F***JoeAndTheHo" - glad they sold the house and moved away.

I just set mine when I got the router and never change it, but I see people change names often enough that it can't be very hard.

But if your wifi is managed by an ISP, the ISP may or may not allow it to be changed.

It might spread faster these days with social media. This one is an amazing story - sort of reminds of the Seinfeld TV show.
