Any Bob's Burgers fans out there? If you're not familiar (and you should be), it's an animated TV sitcom that's been around for over a dozen years. It's about a family that operates a small restaurant in a beach town somewhere in America. The patriarch, Bob, is a good guy. He's not particularly smart or successful, but he loves his wife, loves his three kids, and does his best.
There are times, however, that — between his family, friends, customers, arch-nemesis and fellow restaurateur Jimmy Pesto, among others — life becomes overwhelming. When he reaches a certain point, Bob typically lets out an exasperated, "ohmygod."
It's very quick and, more often than not, under his breath. Because he truly tries to be a decent person, it's typically meant for his ears only, and he certainly doesn't intend any impiety. Bob is simply indicating that he has reached his limit. The show then generally cuts to the next scene.
So... this Trump tariff lunacy. Ohmygod.
