At least this time an American President will not just throw paper towels at Puerto Ricans, also not want to swap Puerto Rico for Greenland, not say “This is a tough hurricane, one of the wettest we've ever seen, from the standpoint of water”, and also not say that Puerto Rico “is an island surrounded by water, big water, ocean water”.
I work with a Puerto Rican man that speaks english like a 4 year old. Pretty sure he was dropped on his head as a baby, because he is also a big time MAGA guy. You might be surprised how many Puerto Ricans and Cubans support Trump.
@@sandman6638 wonder why
@@thend4427 Cubans in particular are easily swayed by anyone saying the word "Communist."
Are those actual Orange Clown quotes?
What, wait, that wasn’t helpful? I keep a room full of paper towels for any emergency!
Boiling chicken in Nyquil. This is one reason why extraterrestrials won't have contact with us.
🤣😂🤣
Lol
😂😂😂
How would anyone even think this would be good! 🤮🤢
No shit.
Thank you so much for mentioning Puerto Rico. As of Wednesday morning, 80% of the population is still without power (myself included) and 45% are still without water. People lost their homes and all their belongings in one day; any help would be appreciated.
If you are without power, how are you posting this ?
Seriously curious: how are you posting this?
I'm so sorry for everyone's loss💙 living in FL i know how you all must feel. Hope power is restored very soon, cause it's too damn hot!
@@maggiesmith856 My house doesn’t have power but we have a generator we can turn on for some time and we can charge our phones. Also, I have power where I work; just not in my home. Cell signal is spotty but they reinforced the system after Maria five years ago that left us with no signal whatsoever.
That being said, my situation is manageable, the southwest side of the island is the one that got hit the worst.
@@SchoolforHackers I have a generator at home so I can charge my phone and after María five years ago, internet companies installed cables underground so we wouldn’t lose connection completely as we did then. So I do have Wifi when we turn on the generator at home and cell signal is a little spotty but it’s not gone completely.
The southwest side of the island got hit the worst; people lost everything and those people really do need help.
Americans should insist that the people of Puerto Rico and other US teritories GET THE RIGHT TO VOTE! No taxation without representation.
then ratify them as a state.
Then why has Puerto Rico voted against statehood? Want the privileges accept the responsibilities.
That's actually up to the people of Puerto Rico. It keeps coming to a vote to officially ask to become a state, and getting a very close no
Or just not be taxed, because the territories have their own governments iirc
But who will think of all the poor Republicans who won’t be able to pass their radical, far-right agendas when the Puerto Ricans elect Democrats to represent them? Surely their desire, nay, their right to strip women of their right to bodily autonomy and same-sex couples their right to marriage, etc. outweighs the Puerto Ricans basic right to vote as the Founding Fathers intended.
Thank you for supporting Puerto Rico and acknowledging the fact that we are U.S. citizens.
btw. I never miss the show.
Aren't you (just) "US nationals"?
Maybe this time Puerto Rico will get more help than a roll of paper towels upside the head...?
Well to be fair it’s an island that is surrounded by water that is tremendously wet so what else can be done?
Solar power for all nothing like a bunch of spiderweb power lines and a powerful hurricane. Spiders don't build webs in front of fans.......
And then the added indignity of the POTUS trying to illegally trade away your island commonwealth for Greenland because Former Guy 45 cares more about the potential for oil than he does about the lives of brown people.
@@glormoparch5154 Usually, you draw cabels under a layer of soil, because you know ... exposure. But sure, what were you rambling ... ?
@@sarahbarrett1247 trade it for Greenland, at least that's what one Florida man thought was best with his "big brain" because he's "like really smart".
“Is this a warning? Or instructions?!” 😂😂😂
My thoughts exactly🤦🏻♀️
Meanwhile is the glue that holds humanity together.
Michael. Nero fiddled while Rome burned. Meanwhile.....
"Let your fellow Americans know you love and care about them". Contrast the type of person who says things like that, versus the old President, who didn't - and doesn't - give a hot steaming dump about ANYONE except himself.
ABC The seed that sees. All too familiar is your point but it opens up discussion about the larger issue of why this stance seems to be so popular. It represents a kind of individualism America is ostensibly used to stand for. You can be whatever and the greatest. Mohamad Ali used to say, "Im the greatest" all the time and we believed him. People love to tout and publicize their accomplishments. To be famous in America almost seems like the zenith of status. I see all this as the dark side of the concept of individualism within the original American ideology. I have no idea where we are right now. Mish mosh of alliances to a plethora of issues.
Might You refer to the XP-45?
Don't be naive, none of the people in power care about anyone except for themselves.
"I can smell time" 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
I'm 28 and regularly fall asleep on the couch while watching documentaries and I am fine with it. I wonder what I'll do when I'm 40 😂
Juls what kind of documentaries do you watch or doesn't it matter? You know you should sleep on a firm mattress not the couch. Maybe once in a while. Can't you take your documentaries to the bedroom?
I'm not going to make spinal comments, more about your style. By the time you're forty I hope
you have an air conditioned greenhouse to see the sky, avoid the wind and rain, feel the heat
when you want to, and lay back to tan or have shade while you watch the screen, a big one.
For me, having a small fridge for ice cubes and Diet Pepsi, the nectar of the gods, does it .
@@jschuler53 no electronics in my bedroom, means I fall asleep as soon as my head touches my pillow.
fall asleep sooner, wake up later, and still feel drained.
You might get rich just by not pay for television?
“Post apocalyptic jello salad of news” soooooooo…. Fox?
This show should have Caitlin Doughty of Ask A Mortician on as a guest. She could do a good segment on the human composting story.
She’d be great fun!
I thought the same thing. I said Mother Death should be here.
YES YES YES YES YES PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE LET’S MAKE THIS HAPPEN!!
Our Death Mother!
Indeed!!! She’s great.
So excited to see that human composting got approved in CA! Congrats to everyone at Recompose and the green death advocates who worked so hard to get this done, even though Newsom bitched out last session.
In all my years of smoking weed, I never said: "I can smell time". I guess I need to try harder.
Even on heroically liberal doses of LSD, i never experienced Chronosthesia
Make sure to cook a nice pasta when you get the munchies again 🙃 I guarantee that you'll be able to smell thyme whenever you're high from then on after 😜
Made me remember that one O'Reilly book: O F*ck! The acid is kicking in. Jesus Christ, the walls are melting!
Not kidding: I suspect that the FDA actually giving a nasty name to a separate department just to deal with heartbreakingly stupid stuff might be a good idea. We really do need to make willful stupidity more embarrassing.
"The Department of Informing the Grotesquely Stupid Not To Do Obviously Dangerous and Stupid Shit."
@@askthepizzaguy The international organization of this is responsible for the Darwin Awards. Why fight it?
Willful stupidity is no longer shameful and Tiktok is promoting it. People are in fact proud of their stupidity.
@@hawkeye5955 To me it feels like people are say, if not only to themselves: the world is crumbling or is going to end soon, I'm going to die so let's go out with a bang, do some crazy stuff and act like stupid kids again Why not?
... or make education more affordable. Too many stupid people in this country! And tRump has condoned, nay encouraged stupidity.
Thank you Stephen! I understand none of those words either. 😆
I do, however, know not to Boil Chicken in Nyquil!!!!
I love Meanwhiles!
(: Me Too ... ☺
Me too, favorite segment!
............................. Meanwhile
"Fellow American citizens!" - That was quite the nice touch. Very nice, Stephen.
Thank you @thelateshow for putting forward the voice to help us in Puerto Rico get help and donations from others. It feels great to know the ones you love, love you back. Right now, I have nether electric nor water service at my home, but am greatful to still have a home.
Having said that, I'm not greatful to some neighbors who full throttle a power generator day and night, flooding everyone's home with delightful gas fumes and noise, which makes it impossible for anyone to sleep and rest, while at the same time also make it more likely for others to sleep and rest forever. ☠🤬 As if having to wear a face mask in public throughout the pandemic wasn't enough, now I have to wear a gas mask at home too.
Quietly throw a wrench at it, before this🤪
My dad once told me he invented the emoticon. Turns out he was an emoticonman.
Get out
My dad used to call me stoopid
You win the comment section
And, rim shot!
LMAO, so funny. Thank you my week has been for shit and this made me laugh, cry, choke!👍👍🤣😎
I would've watched the rest of the show, but I had to make sure my Nyquil didn't boil over....
In 1977 a comic strip appeared here in the UK called Judge Dredd. The character lived in a futuristic city called Mega-City 1 and one of the things they had in the city was Resyke ... where the dead went to have their bodies recycled into usable components. I never thought I'd live long enough to witness it start to happen for real.
UK. I remember Judge Dredd. They've been having Green Funerals for a while now. No embalming, just wrap the person in a shroud and throw them under a tree or somewhere. I believe you have to buy the land or it has to be designated. But really, who would know? Even in a cemetery? If you see someone digging you don't know if they have a permit or not. I always thought burial was a waste of space and we're running out of it. I think it's a terrific idea and natural. I always though emalming was creepy and so was viewing a dead body. You could and should be able to bury your loved ones in your back yard like we used to do. If they do the composting thing I bet the funeral industry will try to make a big song and dance about it; designating LEGAL places where you can dispose of it when it's compost. I hope not. You probably can't do it yourself either. Which I find odd. Checking for murders?
Started in Washington state about two years ago.
Sounds a bit like soylent green...
Waterworld anyone?
"I can smell time."
Damn! Now that's a new one!
I'm just glad Pueto Rico can maybe get more help, faster. It was awful what they went through when relying on the man in orange.
It was so bizarre that he took it all so personally, and immaturely!
You mean Agent Orange.
@@karenneill9109 ya, he's still taking everything personally. He's an Idiot.
"Don't boil NyQuil"
You know what, stop trying to save the stupids and let Darwin hand out awards.
Best comment on here.....love them & that my son introduced me to them a dozen+ years ago in middle school!
Same with pod challenge, milk crates, seriously who thinks of this sh!t!
Eventually you just have to leave them to their own stupidity and let nature take it's course.
Yeah not shit, you cock, when was "Darwinism" EVER not in the picture? Like not accounting the sun for every passing day. Trust me, the slowest, dumbest, most igorant person will be your end, and they will continue living.
Life isn't pre-determined, its random as all hell.
Social Darwinism is pure fascism. Giving a shit about other people is the driving force behind a sustainable economy.
"Really FDA?! Is This a Warning or, 'Instructions'??? lol 🤣👍💖
Yes.
"Even aspirin can kill you if you take too much, but a fatal dose of marijuana would require ingestion of fifteen hundred pounds in fifteen minutes -- a physical impossibility for any human, even Snoop Dogg,"
The one man on Earth Snoop won't smoke with is Willie Nelson, who could easily smoke Snoop under the table.
@@scottdoesntmatter4409 that's just because Willie's been smoking so long he has a high tolerance. You can get addicted to cannabis, but no you can't die from it. It's a short acting drug. For most people. Your chances of wrecking your car while stoned and dying that way are much higher.
@@scottdoesntmatter4409 i wonder if snoop has tried the strain "Willie Nelson"(Nepali Charas hashplant x Vietnamese Black Sativa) before. It's Quite lovely in both flavor and effect.
R. I. P.
NyQuil and Chicken? What next? Benadryl and Ice-Cream? OH WAIT --
Omg, don't give this losers on TikTok ideas. For god's sake that stupid ass app should be banned.
According to ‘The Drug Classroom’ channel, taking four or more Benadryl will make you hallucinate. 😵💫
Ooh, ooh, pick me! Tide pods and a table spoon of ground cinnamon!
I prefer steak n’ eggs n’ Robitussin.
@@krokodyl1927 what if you only take 2 at a time 6 times in a row?
FDA’s Department of I Guess We Have To Say This Now does equal work with NASA’s Department of No, It’s Not Flat. We Checked.
I love his "Meanwhile" Word Salad intros.... they're like a verbal "Rube Goldberg" contraption..!!!
I told a friend of mine who was a former cook about the chicken. He was just as confused
Aren't we all "just confused" at this point? Someone above said: "nothing makes sense anymore. Yeah. So let's laugh instead of cry.
Can I just say, I love Louis Cato! He is a delightful musician. I hope they give him more opportunities to have conversations with Stephen, like his predecessor.
"I can smell Time." Lol same man..same
That moment when the FDA accidentally gives you instructions on how to freebase NyQuil.
I don't think anyone seriously thought about doing it until they read the FDA's warning! Priceless..
I always watch your show and love it. Thanks I’m from P.R. Thanks for mentioning to your audience to help our people, thanks thanks
I’m the only one here, but all my family is back there.
Again thanks !!
Thanks for making me feel old, Stephen! :-(
:O
u can say about the late show whatever u want but the intro to this segment is just perfect! EVERY time!👌🏻
It's boring and annoying. It was cute the first two times (years ago), but it got old real fast. I skip through it every time. I want more meanwhile and less or zero intro crap.
Ah Jeff, it’s just a love of the spoken language and how words have meaning as they roll off the tongue into the abyss of the silence.
But, if that isn’t appealing to you, scroll forward if it floats your boat.
I always skip it. 😅
That idea of putting the 1,8 Myo tooth under your pillow may actually be brilliant, assuming the tooth fairy has to pay interest for the 656,999,999 nights it wasn't picked up and paid for! 💵👍
Literally the BEST show on TV!
Freebasing NyQuil is the hip new thing; chicken is old news 😂
“I can smell time” priceless.
So creative... I am laughing against my will... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Who would even think of boiling Nyquil?
Much less cooking chicken in it. The whole story just baffles me.
I learned about distillation in school in 1995 or so, i made a rig out of garage stuff, i distilled everything with alcohol in it, scope Nyquil after shave.. my friends were quite mad cuz all i wanted to do was burn the alcohol for the cool blue flame, good thing though cuz that alcohol was probably poison.
@@larryscarr3897 You sound like a dangerously interesting person.
I asked myself the same thing. How would you even come up with that idea?? Geez, this world gets crazier by the day!!
someone bored, hungry, and possibly stoned out of their gourd.
I remember when I found out about the tide pod challenge the winter after I graduated and thought "this is stupid but children can think it looks like candy". This just doesn't make sense. NyQuil is a drug, I knew that much when I was 6. Who thought it's a good idea to cook with it
People that manufacture meth.
Children AND elderly with cognitive decline :(
Apparently the same people who think it's a good idea to watch Tik Tok.
More brain damage for the brain damaged.
@Neil Deep TDS sufferers?
That what happens if you give a massive audience to stupid ideas and promise idiots fame for a 5sec video.
There are TikTok challenges about committing vandalism and appearently a reverse-ice-bucket challenge where people use boiling water instead.
Smelling thyme is probably the very best thing I've thought of today.
Janelle, you mean smelling Time? lol
Back in the 60’s & 70’s we had the saying “Comet makes you vomit, so buy some comet and vomit today” BUT NO ONE WAS STUPID ENOUGH TO ACTUALLY DO THIS! 🤦🏼♂️
Comet
It makes your teeth turn green
Comet
It tastes like gasoline
Comet
It makes you vomit
So eat some Comet
And vomit
Today...!
Wow... the things you remember from childhood...
I remember the melody too but don't know the name of the song...
“Comet ... it makes your teeth turn green...”
Theme song for bridge over the river kwai.
This was the British colonel bogey March. Used in picture bridge over river kwai.

2:50 How was there no “Soylent Green” references in this report?
Meanwhile is one of the best things on video! 😂😂😂
FDA also warned Americans that cooking chicken in NyQuil is no more stupid than just living in America.
It’s not a great look when a vegetarian meat substitute boss turns to cannibalism.

The guy just came to the company from Tyson. He’s not even vegan/vegetarian.
Well, we knew that soylent green was people...
As a vegetarian and recycling educator, I felt attacked during this segment 🤣🤣
Well, if you'd stop biting noses it wouldn't feel so personal 😂
Just the thought of chicken cooked in NyQuil makes me feel queasy. 🤯
The cherry or the licorice?
I bet the grape flavor isn't to bad,, lol.
It should make you feel sleepy though
NyQuil vs FDA: It's about time, lol 😂😆.
NyQuil chicken really fits in the Meanwhile aesthetic.
Caitlin Doughty did a video on composting. Very interesting.
#ThankYou #StephenColbert 4 taking the time to have an online list so ppl can truly help rebuild #PuertoRico 🇵🇷 ✌🏾 Hope 2 meet U one day soon as well as your lovely wife, Evie.💜
While yes.. the last #POtuS was a void across the board.. He had it in for us since the 1980s when he tried to bust up any formation of unions in his casinos. He was successful until #PuertoRicans 🇵🇷 working in his casinos made it impossible for him to do so by getting his casinos unionized.😁 Notice how he berated #AOC until he found out she was #PuertoRican 🇵🇷 .. then quietly stopped. Yes. We R very accomplished Activists & #FreedomFighters .. We do not play the 'white' supremacy narrative. We R the Human race.. Not a color but COLORS.💞 We come in many, many colors.. from cream to ebony & everything inbetween. We R all #PuertoRican 💞 & well known though racists try to discredit us all. the. time.😐 However, the #Truth #Facts & our sense of fair play stand the passage of time. This is a common thread among most #Caribbean people & speaks for itself.✌🏾🌹💞🌹
BTW, #USCongress delayed #USAID to us in 2017 even though we pay Federal taxes annually, but cannot cast our #vote 4 the next #POTUS 😐 as a "U.S. territory" but it's okay to send us to the frontlines in every war the U.S. has waged in the 20th & 21st centuries & to turn your backs on us while seated in Congress. We were the canary in the mines. That "void" went on to plan a coup attempt on the U.S. Capitol & to turn his back on people afflicted with COVID. We also extended private security to #AOC just in case something went down long b4 this coup attempt was tried b/c we know words with a racist undertow tend to end in violence. The good news is that #AOC is still in Congress with her colleagues.💜
I love my country, but I understand my Ancestors then & my relatives today were building #America and NEVER #Amerikkka but we can't do everything people : PULL THAT DAMN PLUG. Let #racism #sexism & other -isms die as they will. Yes. We have a few dummies shouting & repeating 'white' supremacist lies, but the majority of people have the sense to understand their minds R free. We R not voids. We R #Americans & we can #vote these "voids" out. We R one big COLORFUL #Humanity & that is indeed a beautiful thing. ✌🏾🌹💞🌹
I'm 40 and I watch documentaries to fall asleep to...... I guess I'm doing something right. XD

I would like to use this opportunity to thank Forrest Gump for inventing emoticons
He helped invent the "have a nice day" shirt.
No, no, no. It was Nikola Tesla who came up with emoticon while sitting on bench in NYC's Bryant Park.
@@ecamp6360 Lincoln actually put a : ) in one of his speeches after a joke so even before that.
I have a hard time believing that in all of human history, especially with our love of intoxication amongst the ruling classes, that no one ever wrote an emote before the 1800s. There had to be some little spoiled prince somewhere they was being a little 💩, and thought it would be funny to use punctuation to make faces in their writings.
If falling asleep on the couch watching a documentary and being okay with it makes you 40, I turned 40 when I was a sophomore in high school.
LOL Me, too! Hmmm... does that mean I should add 40 to the age I am now? Explains my need for multiple naps a day!😂😂😂
Friggin hell, the emoticon is as old as I am 😆😭
“Jazz Cowboy” lol 😂
FDA and DARE, two big brothers who do a great job teaching the kids
To answer the question, uncle Rick would be disposal. Meat and plant matter should generally not be composted together due to microbe stuff.
Welcome back Joe!
The emoticon knew it was officially 40 when it started offering "🤷" as a reply.
SO MUCH respect & admiration for Samantha Power, thank you for having her on your show💖
Thank you for referring to Puerto Ricans as American citizens because so many people forget or willfully ignore that
I swear we went through the NyQuil chicken nightmare like last year. Are we recycling crappy social media trends again? Ugh.
Yes you are, going back to the late 1950s, when Vicks had Vicks Formula Cough Syrup, with codeine,
I was around eight, my brothers six and four. Vicks was the only thing my mother had to hide from us.
It came as a dark liquid, not really licorice flavored, the other was strawberry, not our favorite.
The high level of codeine eventually was made illegal. Homeless people were using it.
I sure do miss that there Piano Player. Just Sayin". 😪
Apologies if repetitious: "... give the guy a Slim Jim before he kills again..."

The joke about Uncle Rick being compost or disposal was awkwardly funny 😅

Cooking chicken with NyQuil. That's one way to make a more powerful chicken soup to help you fight off colds and strenuous flus!
That's why chicken soup is still the best thing to take for a cold or flu.

Somebody freebased NyQuil and simultaneously cooked a chicken in it on TikTok??? And ate the result?????
What the hell is going in the world these days?
FDA: okay... they were instructions.
Chicken in NyQuil is what you get when you hire a meth cook as a chef. 🤘
4:30 'Ask a Mortician' on YT has great information and commentary on this
If I were to eat chicken cooked in NyQuil, I would most likely bite someone's nose, possibly a chicken's nose (beak?).
Looking forward to to College Humour CEO discuss this one. Their tide pod skits are brilliant.
