Here's hoping this is the last time in my life I have to gaze upon this grotesque misshapen oompa loompa.

His appearance is irrelevant. There's plenty of us ugly guys here. But not everyone is such a jerk.

Oh I agree wholeheartedly. But every time I see his ghoulish rictus of a face it reminds me that for four miserable years the democratically elected* leader of the largest economy in the world was a philandering child rapist. One who is only now facing the slightest possibility of consequence for a tiny fraction of his crimes because he engaged in honest to god high treason. Nothing against ugly dudes. You're cool.

*kind of

A cautionary tale of when the ugliness unside morphs the flesh into a lumpy miscolored mass of dangling skin

Bro, thats offensive. The oompa loompas look way better.

[–] Uranhjort@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

True enough. Say what you will about the 'loompas, they lift.

On a side note politicians love these comments as they joke about it too at rallies and increases support.

Makes me wonder what politicians can into jokes of culture popularized the people who died as a result of their actions.

And had I not made the comment it would have been the work of minutes for someone to generate a thousand like it to drum up support.

Let's not pretend anonymous internet comments have any actual bearing here. I'm just having fun coming up with new terms for this festering troglodyte.

That fine, but I just want to see how a politician turns a history of suffering into jokes at a rally. Oddly enough I think Trump could do it and his congregation would eat it up.
