There were over 1,800 Shoney’s franchises spread across 34 American states by the end of the 1990s. A statue of a chubby brown-haired boy named Bob, a.k .a., was adrift outside most of those eateries. Big Boy Bob’s Big Boy.

Richard” Dickie” Woodruff, a six-year-old boy from real life, was the inspiration for him. ( My best guess is that Dick’s Big Boy wasn’t as well-known as Bob’s Big Boy, so the name-change. ) ” Bob’s Great Boy” was Shoney’s national symbol at the start of the 1950s.  ,
The gruff lad was instantly recognized by millions of Americans.
There are currently only 58 remaining Shoney’s franchises. None of the 1,800 Shoney’s from the 1990s were still active; in 2000, the business filed for Chapter 11 shelter and was purchased by Lone Star Funds.  ,
Which implies that there must be at least 1, 750 figures of Shoney’s Big Boy floating around somewhere in the nation!
These figures may have a second career in 2028: With simply a small bit of touchup, those monuments would carry the odd Gov. The wide-bottomed Big Boy of the Democratic Party, JB Pritzker (D-Ill. ).
He desires to become president. Quite hard, very seriously.
The Pritzker home, one of the wealthiest families in the world, is the descendant of the governor of Illinois. The Pritzkers collectively own a fortune worth more than$ 43 billion, most of it coming from the Hyatt Hotels Corporation. The governor’s personal wealth is estimated to be$ 3. 6 billion.
He seems oddly appropriate for the Democratic Party of today and its” Fighting Oligarchy” philosophy. However, some organizations are trying: The” Communists for Pritzker” X bill has over 18 000 fans.

His generous size is another factor that is putting him at risk. Political campaigns are more hollywood than common policy, and the obsceneness of a big, fat politician is “broadly” unappealing. The stereotypes of obesity include laziness, a lack of willpower, a lack of moral character, bad hygiene, a low level of intelligence, and unattractiveness, according to the World Obesity Federation ( not to be confused with the World Wrestling Federation, King Kong Bundy and Yokozuna notwithstanding ).
Almost the opposite of what we would need from a leader.
( On a side note: Be sure to check out the World Obesity Federation party pictures. None of them are really overweight! I’m but, so perplexed.
In over 100 years, Americans haven’t elected a president who is clearly fat. You have to travel up to Howard Taft.
A wealthy man’s weight is perhaps worse than that. It “feeds” into the myth of the wealthy, powerful tubby who is unable to manage his ambition. ( Not saying that’s fair, but the optics are the optics. )
On the discussion stage, JB Pritzker may be visually stunning with only a small AOC. The” Futurama” clip featuring aliens watching” Friends” reruns beckons:
Why doesn’t Ross, the friend with the most teeth, just feed the different five?
” Perhaps they are saving that for blasts.”
He is likewise Hebrew. Because Jews are viewed curiously in today’s Democratic Party, that’s not a good point because young people, especially those on the left, are more likely to support Hamas and the Palestinians than the Israelis. If you’re a Jew, you’re of post innocent of apartheid, colonialism, racism, and murder.

The haughty government is trying his hardest to slander his Jewishness, particularly by citing his belief in anti-Trump remarks:
Stop destroying the Constitution in the grandparents ‘ name. Do not make the claim that your totalitarian power grabs involve racism. When you denigrate social righteousness, you are disparaging the very basis of Judaism, according to Pritzker, who is Jewish.
He hasn’t been shy about making the old-fashioned Nazi evaluation both:
In his annual State of the State address, Pritzker, who is Jewish, said,” The plant that grew into a dictator in Europe a life before didn’t occur overnight. ” It all began with regular Europeans who were angry and looking for a cause to blame.”
Pritzker argued that while he does not “invoke the ghost of Nazis lightly,” his deep understanding of history makes him stronger in opposition to Trump’s actions since taking office, especially his severe immigration laws and mass deportation orders.
He told legislators,” If you think I’m overreacting and sounding the alarm to quickly, think about this.” ” A democratic republic was destroyed by the Nazis in one month, three months, two days, eight hrs, and forty minutes.” Every good people should be prepared to man a blog with a bucket of water when the five-alarm fire starts to burn, in order to stop it from spiraling out of control.

His smartest play is: Pritzker will depend on volume because he didn’t succeed with optics. He claims to be the loudest, most violent Trump-hater in the country and also calls for street riots:” He’s calling himself the loudest, most intense Trump-hater in the country.”
Never before in my living have I called for mass protests, for participation, for disturbance, but I am now,” he said to applause. They are unable to experience harmony among themselves. They need to be aware that we will use every speaker and microphone we have to combat their cruelty. We had vilify them on television and finally put them to death at the polls.
The government’s boy felt compelled to say something because it was so outrageous:
Are you attempting to motivate a third assassination attempt against my uncle? Two wasn’t sufficient for you, did you? https ://t.co/ewxGWSLsQ4— Donald Trump Jr. ( @DonaldJTrumpJr ) April 28, 2025
Because of Gov., this tale merits following. Pritzker is currently having a little time. We’re in the” test bubble” phase of Democratic political elections right now, as we just saw 50 days before:
Every quarter, the Democrats will conduct an audition for a new president. Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn. ) is their current choice as their primary candidate. The tip-off occurs when “friendly” media outlets like NBC and the New York Times suddenly publish over-the-top puff pieces, and other outlets, like The Hill, start hard news stories with the words” Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn. ), who has emerged as one of his party’s loudest critics of the Trump administration.”
That’s how demo bubbles operate. And when Murphy falters, they will hire a replacement.  ,

Is there still a lot of talk about Mr. Murphy these days? His” test bubble” appears to have burst out of water and disappeared.
It’s now JB’s change.  ,
Of program, a bubble is a large, inflated, thick, hot air balloon that is also filled with nothing.
No a bad metaphor for the Democratic Party’s Great Boy.  ,
However, this bubble has a price. a lot of money: )! Which implies that this tale may continue to be told. It might be a VERY BIG offer.
After all,” giant” cannot be spelled “JB” without that.
Be tuned.
