The heightened, bizarro tone of this comedy and its head-spinning speed of events so strongly recall the style of Will Arbery's "Plano" that an algorithm would match up their audiences: If you enjoyed that play, you'll surely get a kick out of this one, directed by Jaki Bradley as part of the Next Door at NYTW series.

Decenturion's manifesto speaks of casting aside the "inhibitors" (aka government officials) in favor of "the innovators, who dare to follow the path of progress," and its numerous bizarro Youtube videos railing against representative democracy and the Olympics ("a rigged farce put on by the chemical industry") come across as a mix between a marketing student's prank and a QAnon wet dream.

From the Microsoft-owned company's recent Facebook-style news feed implementation to the long-standing encouragement that complete and total strangers "connect" as a way to inflate one's networking skills, LinkedIn has become this kind of bizarro social network that everyone outside of corporate recruiters feels compelled to use as sparingly as humanely possible, or only with complete and unfailing irony.

An absurdist comedy with touches of magical realism and science fiction, it's about a young black telemarketer named Cassius Green (Lakeith Stanfield) who is struggling with his personal ethics as he learns that betraying his friends and adopting a "white voice" (provided by the ever-lurking comedy weirdo David Cross) will help him win out in a near-future bizarro capitalist dystopia.

But because the Globes function as a sort of bizarro counterpart to the Oscars and the Emmys—the "Hey, we're all drunk!" vibe of the Globes' telecast could also apply to its voters—there were still plenty of pleasant surprises to be had: Issa Rae's turn on HBO's Insecure earned a nomination, as did Simon Helberg's performance in Florence Foster Jenkins.

The truth is, I'm not sure I needed additional substances to heighten this experience: the Food & Wine Classic is a drug in it of itself, a bizarro alter-reality where the upper echelon of food-lovers and celebrity chefs come together under the stunning Aspen sky to indulge in some of the fanciest food the culinary and beverage world has to offer.

Bernie SandersBernie SandersJoe Biden faces an uncertain path Bernie Sanders vows to go to 'war with white nationalism and racism' as president Biden: 'There's an awful lot of really good Republicans out there' MORE (Vt.), he looks like bizarro-Atlas hunched over trying to hold it up with accusations of electoral unfairness and a Salem-style quest to take down Rep.

Others reacted with indignation bordering on satire: the best of the bunch was critic Ben Davis's bizarro annotated response that picked up on Brooks's paean to a golden age that never was, that contrary to his own claims Brooks is really more interested in transcendental takes on beauty, and that humanism is to him little else than a complaint about the contemporary scene.

Fresh off 20 nonstop years of Sopranos nostalgia, this decade has seen the mob squarely leave therapy and enter a new phase: reality TV. In addition to actual reality TV shows (including one on Staten Island) about the mob, the internet age—and the Mafia's fading real-life power—seem to have combined to foment some kind of bizarro new era of self-referential mayhem.

This was one of the things that struck me most about the Republican National Convention after spending a couple of days wandering around the Quicken Loans Arena and its environs: how much it called to mind the let-your-freak-flag-fly conviviality of a music festival, with Scanlon a bizarro-universe version of the hippies selling edibles in the parking lot outside a Phish show.

Rattner suggests young progressives are wild-eyed dreamers disconnected from reality in a column that is itself deeply disconnected from reality: At one point, Rattner says Republicans and Democrats might, in some bizarro future, "quickly agree" on investments in national infrastructure, which is odd given they have spent the last two years failing miserably to even have a serious conversation about said investments, much less agree on them.

Written in the wake of Vampire Weekend's four year tour hiatus, Youngish American delves into some of those "things other than drumming" to which Carney alluded: Like, say, the clumsy acceptance process of getting older (in Tomson's case, turning 603), figuring out who you are (beyond your band), and what eking out an adult life means in the shadow of an ugly bizarro version of the American Dream.

"Meanwhile, there's a bizarro #GrabYourWallet bubbling on the other side of the aisle," reported Racked in 2017 as MAGA proponents called for boycotts of Nordstrom, T.J. Maxx (incidentally, also recommended for boycott by #GrabYourWallet for carrying Ivanka's brand, until the label shut down), Starbucks, celebrities, and others for speaking out against Trump, dropping Ivanka's line, or championing initiatives that they do not support, from LGBTQ inclusivity to immigration rights.

Where the latter product was so penny-pinching the company hadn't even paid to include in the box a user manual that contained actual words — opting, we must assume, to save on translation costs by producing a comic packed with inscrutable graphics and bizarro don't do diagrams which only served to cement the fast-cooling buyer's conviction they'd been sold a total lemon — the Roborock's box contains a well written paper manual that contains words and clearly labeled diagrams.

To read a stack of new and reissued books about Mr. Trump, as well as a bunch of his own works, is to be plunged into a kind of Bizarro World version of Dante's "Inferno," where arrogance, acquisitiveness and the sowing of discord are not sins, but attributes of leadership; a place where lies, contradictions and outrageous remarks spring up in such thickets that the sort of moral exhaustion associated with bad soap operas quickly threatens to ensue.

Still, I was as shocked as anyone to find what amounted to a bizarro world App Store of sorts sitting in plain sight, downloadable with a few taps on my iPhone XS. The marketplace, called TutuApp, is just one of many illicit iOS app stores that can be easily sideloaded onto your Apple device, so long as you're willing to hand the keys to your security and privacy to an unknown, likely China-based entity designed around peddling popular Nintendo knock-offs and pirated versions of apps and various types of spyware, malware, and other maliciously disguised software.

The action unfurls in fairly linear fashion after those initial moments, tracking Cheney's rise from congressional intern, to young Donald Rumsfeld's (Steve Carell, who gives a glimpse of a bizarro universe where Michael Scott has made it to the highest echelons of government) right hand man during the Nixon years, through his appointments as Chief of Staff during the Ford (Bill Camp) administration, his election to Congress in the late 1970s, his tenure as Secretary of Defense under George H.W. Bush (John Hillner), his corporate transition to CEO of Haliburton, and finally, his decision to become George W. Bush's (Sam Rockwell) vice president.
