    The USA is a corporation that tolerates citizens.

    As a meteorologist, I thank you for bringing this out into the open, Last Week Tonight.

    "Feels like 70 or feels like 19, I don't know" is the most accurate description of weather in the Midwest though, so I guess he's right.
  • @Laurence2000
    Last Week Tonight: Bringing issues I didn’t know were issues to attention, and making topics I thought were utterly boring, exciting. John and his staff are national treasures.

    "Pay us or die in a tornado" is literally a supervillain business plan, except that the supervillain will at least have had the decency to have invented and built a tornado machine.

    It's really impressive that this guy can get nearly 5 million people (at the time of writing) to click on a video called 'Weather'

    My birds got proportionally louder as I turned this up to hear over them. Either they really hate the sound of John’s voice or they recognize their own kind and were trying to communicate.
  • “Cooperation makes you weak and subservient” is the kind of thing you expect a Saturday morning cartoon villain to say
  • Every time I see a segment from LWT, I'm like, " how big of a deal can this be?" 30 mins later... "WTF! How can they get away with that?"
  • "Suck on this one, sit on that one!" Thanks John, TOTALLY using that in the future! 🤣🤣
  • As someone who does fieldwork for research purposes, everyone on our team relies on radar and weather apps to plan for field seasons. Whether it be for personal safety/preparedness or to ensure our data can actually be collected. I had no expectations coming into this video but let me say that I deleted my Accuweather app before the video ended and every extra minute I watched made me more certain in my decision.

    I did not wake up today with a "f*ck accuweather" mindset.... but here we are.
  • Me: There’s no way John Oliver can ruin the weather for me. It’s weather! Me 16 minutes later: DAMN IT
  • @IANinALTONA
    I would like to see a John Oliver episode where he catches up with old episodes and let's us know what happened a year later.

    “Unfortunately hit a town that didn’t have our service and a couple dozen people died” Excuse me wha-HUT the fu-HUCK
  • @wrxgrl
    Thank you, John Oliver, for roasting the man who asked me, in a job interview at Accuweather way back, if I was a 'republican', because 'it would be better if I was'. This, of course, was right after he asked if I wanted to also do the on camera weather, as with the new High Definition, their existing 'women' had too many skin imperfections to be on-camera.. as I interviewed for a position working as a meteorological programmer.. sooo needless to say I didn't take the job.

    I feel like this could be an actual headline: "Nestle buys rights to air, charges people money to breathe it."
