Screencaps Roundup: Shakira's World Cup Song, Wendy's Struggles, Costco Crowds and Reader Rants

Wednesday Screencaps kicks off with the Cincinnati Reds losing badly to teams they should beat. Shakira announced her official World Cup song that will play all summer. The name Shakira sets Mrs. Screencaps on edge.

Kinsey can mention Instagram models or Terann Hilow from Screencaps Recap on Dan Dakich's show. He can note Sports Illustrated swimsuit covers. But Shakira draws a reaction. "She's kinda annoying with the fake voice thing," Mrs. Screencaps says. "Isn't she a criminal," she added. She wondered if tax evasion got Shakira, 49, in trouble. That is correct.

Kinsey asks if readers face similar issues. Does a celebrity name trigger your wife or girlfriend? Do ladies have a male celebrity that upsets husbands? Email joe.kinsey@outkick.com.

Kesha went skinny dipping for Mother Nature. Kristin Cavallari models for her brand. Cones of shame appear.

On the song "Dai Dai," Mrs. Screencaps questions the "eco" part. It likely won't play in the Honda Odyssey during baseball runs.

Millennial Chris B. in Bowling Green texted about a company meeting Tuesday. An IT team member said "screencaps" instead of "screenshot." Kinsey is 95% sure the IT guy reads Screencaps.

October stands as the best month for baseball.

Wendy's news floods Kinsey's email. Readers ask if he still predicts its death despite Nelson's private takeover bid. Kinsey sees Chick-fil-A thriving with church kids serving nuggets fast. Fewer Americans want burgers or Wendy's chili. Culver's expands in the Midwest.

Drive-thrus at Wendy's feature the worst fast-food workers, especially in northwest Ohio. McDonald's leads in ex-con hires, but Wendy's feels risky. "It seriously feels like a crack rock is going to fall into my fries at any moment."

Kinsey wishes Nelson luck. Wendy's is an Ohio institution from Dave Thomas. Headquarters sits on prime Dublin property. Executives should check drive-thrus and swear they trust the staff. They cannot.

Chris Hill in Greensboro, NC, agrees: service fell a year ago on a busy street, business dropped. Chick-fil-A a mile away stays packed.

Jim Q. says Wendy's may go private.

Costco sold out to degenerates and overexpanded, per Thomas B. in Arizona. He links an article on the experience. Kinsey notes Costco grew memberships without new stores. Clearwater, Florida, Costco is chaos on weekends. Parking and gas areas are messes.

Kinsey's New Jersey boss questions visits when delivery works. Toledo Costco bursts at seams.

Costco signed up pajamas-at-airport types and flip-flop February crowds who skip salads. It ruins the fun for TV browsers.

Thursday Night Mowing League stickers ship out. James B. calls Outkick Screencaps mandatory for masculine men. He stuck them on his Cub Cadet and 1971 C20 truck. He smokes ribs as singles for more rub, smoke, and sauce.

2023 national champ Timmy2Cuts found something at home Tuesday.

John P., 60, father of a 5-year-old, urges restoring the 'old school' God, Flag and Country essay in schools. He and his younger wife see it as key to defending the Republic against transformation into debt and slavery.

Will in Mississippi spots Temu Auto ads on Twitter. He prefers J.C. Whitney, around over 100 years, over Chinese knockoffs.

Phil in Florida backs walk-up music for 11- and 12-year-olds. It boosts players. He recalls WWF, WCW, Chicago Bulls entrances. He wants songs for work and wedding, like "Raining Blood" by Slayer. Garage mows to "Eye of the Tiger" could improve routines.

Reports roll in: Mike T. on Canadian beer stores, Wendy's watches, walk-up music debates. Pool cover off for 44th season. New pump works.
