If only there was some way of predicting this would happen, we wouldn't have done this! ;p

It's almost as if they'd waited until... congress... had... authorised... the war, they wouldn't be left holding the bag by themselves.

The only thing preventing me from marrying that girl is that she shoots at me whenever I approach.

What you need is an armed escort. In a month. Then she’ll be all yours!

We attacked Florida and demanded that they don't cut off traffic to Alabama through the Gulf of Mexico. Except it isn't nearly that wide, it's 35x smaller

I mean. We should probably build a wall around Florida.

Republican goobers like catchy names. We could call it “America’s Cock Ring.”

[-] P00ptart@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

You'd be surprised how popular that would be both in context and out.
