This Week in Stupid

For the Week of 19 November 2025

Wednesdays here at the Phil Elmore/Samurai Press Substack, we look at the dumbest nonsense the Internet has to offer. Let’s dive right in with… well, allow me to gesture vaguely at everything.

Before we get into that, tomorrow is the big close range combat webinar with warrior-priest Evan Perperis! Just drop me an email at phil [at] philelmore.com if you’d like in. More information can be had at https://philelmore.us/closerange.

Okay, with that out of the way, let’s get into the stupid. This week in the world of the dumb, we talk about the ongoing saga of the DoorDash girl, a mysterious black ring over Disnelyand, various YouTubers who have come to bad ends, a woman who sent a message in a bottle (and got scolded for it), Wal-Mart was selling questionable t-shirts, and more dumb nonsense.
