I legitimately can’t tell from the headlines whether North Korea stories are satire at this point.

Imagine how much nicer the world be if more international conflicts were fought with turd balloons.
Imagine how much nicer the world would be if more people imagined pooploons at all.
Until they drop little boy for tests, then suddenly you got Hiroshima and Nagasaki all over again....but with shit chain reactions.
If we aim right, we can fertilize our crops while we war.
Ah, the famous Nena song, "99 Luftturds".
There's something here from somewhere else! 🎶💃🏽
My trash company didn't pick up my trash this week, and this gives me some ideas... BRB, gotta go rent a helium tank
Bruh. Someone had to actively put shit in a balloon.
Those are probably just normal North Korean trash bags. Throwing shitty TP in the trash is very common in countries with bad plumbing.
I remember a defector on a podcast telling about how she was wondering what a trash can was in the safe house in China and how foreign concept "trash" was to her. They don't consume anything that comes in a package and if it does it's then repurposed for something else but definitely will not get thrown away.
Quite a disgusting act.
