This shit is all too realistic.

Don't worry, everyone. Trump will be in office soon, and everything will get fixed.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Absolutely! He has the best plans. Just ask him what they are.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago

The best concepts of plans.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

His plans are war, he says he will empower Israel even more and then as a result warring with Lebanon and Iran, possibly Egypt but maybe not, will spread.

He hasn't outright said the consequences of his actions but it doesn't take a genius to work it out.

He'll magically lower the prices of fire hoses and air tanker pilot training.

more like he will jack up the prices and personally pocket the difference somehow

/s is mandatory, if you need evidence that your take is a commonly held belief then I give you 6,264,244 DNC voters who stayed home and 77,303,573 Trump voters who showed up.

Nobody think that, idiot

Listen, randomfirstword+randomsecondword, you're gonna have to get a better script from your handler, because shit like this may have worked 6 years ago, but now it's just static.

WBY mr. randomadjective randomverb?

Ahh, yes, totally verifiable and definitely not a sad sack in a troll farm, right comrade? Mine is from a Gorillaz song, "All Alone" off of Demon Days. Give it a listen, it's my favorite track on a completely stacked LP.

Well if you want the inspiration, then I had this shower thought that a guitar base kind of looks like an infinite symbol and from that you can derive the finite banjo.

Such a banging album.

Can't tell if it's sarcasm, or if you're super misguided....

Just like the kids in The Goonies fixed the statue of David by gluing the dick back on upside down, so too shall Trump invert the American dingus in acts of corporate interest and capitalistic greed.

What a sentence

Liberal reveals fundamental incapability of understanding why every county in their entire nation shifted towards Trump

In other news, water is wet and libs support genocide

[–] [email protected] -2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (2 children)

People: wow americans are kinda shitty with their support for genocide

Some idiotic yank: THE OTHER SIDE WILL BE EVEN WORST!!!!!

How is this relevant, stupid? Fix your goddamn country

You're gonna have to learn to troll harder. This is pretty weak bait, bruv.

I wonder if some client has support for regex-blocking of users... somehow I've blocked a lot of weird trolls with usernames similar to this one

Israel is a terrorist state

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

It has been for a long time.

Best way to deal with runaway wildfires is to start runaway explosive fires somewhere else

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

I say we sacrifice some people to the fire lords. People that are in a certain percentage.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

There has to be some hard limit on how many fires can be happening at the same time, so keep the fires going elsewhere and this one will expire.

Finally, the Gazpacho police have the means to heat up their horrid, cold soup.

The water that accumulates in the bottoms of restaurant dumpsters is gazpacho.
