In yet another terrific piece of longform investigative comedy, John Oliver and Last Week Tonight take on the Miss America Pageant, which likes to promote itself as "the World's Largest Provider of Scholarships for Women." Obviously, there are two questions here: 1) Is it still 1959? and 2) Really? Miss America provides $45 million of scholarships a year? There's also the follow-up question of why anyone seeking an academic scholarship needs to know how to keep her swimsuit snug with butt glue.
Leaving aside the whole question of whether or not we should be judging women on their looks, as if they're auditioning for Faux and Friends or something, I'd just like to point out that Swimsuit Butt Glue is an excellent name for an indie band.
It's worth the video just to hear the one contestant reply, in twenty seconds, to the question about ISIS. No snark, it's not "like such as". About ten seconds in, the studio audience starts applauding, and at the end, Oliver very appropriately says "Holy Shit".
No, what's ridiculous is their answers are only slightly less coherent than what Fox and Friends or The Five would say.
If only "butt glue" was used to glue asses shut, we'd never have to hear from Donald Trump.
No, and they sincerely hope we aren't either!

We can all dream, Dok, we can all dream...
Yes, and the clincher is, it's still called "butt glue"
Too long a drying time, plus, it smells bad, but appropriate
