Remembering 'Avoid the Noid' and Why Politicians Like Mark Kelly and His Filibustering Cronies Are the Ultimate Noids

In the golden age of 1980s pizza commercials, Domino's gave us a timeless slogan: "Avoid the Noid." For those too young to remember (or too busy pretending to be space cadets), the Noid was this annoying little gremlin in a red suit who loved nothing more than ruining your hot, fresh pizza. He was nosy, destructive, and utterly pointless – a pest that existed solely to meddle where he wasn't wanted. Fast-forward to 2025, and it seems the Noid has reincarnated in the form of Arizona Senator Mark Kelly, the self-appointed busybody of the Senate who's hell-bent on sabotaging Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth at every turn.
Let's set the scene: Pete Hegseth, a battle-tested veteran and no-nonsense leader, steps into the role of Secretary of Defense with a mandate to clean house, boost lethality, and put America's military back on track after years of bureaucratic bloat. But enter Mark Kelly – former astronaut, current Democrat darling, and apparent expert on everything from space walks to second-guessing military ops from his cushy Senate seat. Kelly's been on a tear, grilling Hegseth during confirmation hearings like a bad cop in a worse movie, calling him "unqualified" and dredging up every non-issue he can find. And now, even after Hegseth's confirmation, Kelly won't let up. He's pushing for public hearings on a Caribbean Sea operation – you know, the one involving narco-terrorists on a boat that turned out to be a legit threat takedown. But no, Kelly's gotta play the hero, accusing the military of potential war crimes and stirring the pot just to score political points.
It's filibustering at its finest, or should I say, Noid-ing. Kelly's not content with his own lane; he's swerving into everyone else's, hands deep in the military cookie jar like it's his personal snack drawer. Remember when senators were supposed to legislate, not micromanage? Apparently, Kelly missed that memo during his time floating in zero gravity. He's out here demanding transparency on Hegseth's personal life, questioning his use of secure apps like Signal, and even egging on troops to refuse orders he deems "illegal" – a move so reckless it sparked a Pentagon investigation into him. Talk about irony: the guy accusing others of misconduct is now under the microscope himself. And let's not forget the escalating feud, with Hegseth ordering the Navy Secretary to probe Kelly's statements. Finally, someone's calling out the Noid for what he is.
Why the obsession? Is it because Kelly, the so-called "Space Cadet," feels threatened by a real warfighter like Hegseth? Hegseth's all about meritocracy, accountability, and winning wars – concepts that might ruffle the feathers of politicians who've spent their careers in the echo chamber of endless committees. Kelly's antics aren't oversight; they're obstruction. He's halting progress, bullying from the bully pulpit, and acting like a titty baby every time Hegseth tries to do his job. Military operations have suffered enough from senatorial sticky fingers – think of the endless wars, the botched withdrawals, the woke distractions. It's time to oust these interlopers for the sake of all that's good in this world.
Imagine if the Noid had a Senate seat: he'd be filibustering pizza deliveries, demanding hearings on cheese ratios, and accusing delivery drivers of ethical lapses. That's Kelly in a nutshell – a nosy pest ruining the pie for everyone. Hegseth's focused on lethality and rebuilding our forces, while Kelly's busy playing gotcha games. News flash, Senator: the American people elected leaders to lead, not to let crybabies like you derail the train.
So, here's a modern twist on that old slogan: Avoid the Noid – and by Noid, we mean politicians like Mark Kelly. Let Hegseth do his job, keep your nose out of military ops unless you've got actual business there (spoiler: you don't), and maybe, just maybe, focus on Arizona's real problems instead of manufacturing drama in D.C. The military's cookie jar is off-limits, Senator. Time to float back to reality.
