“Welcome back to the BBC…”
proceed with 7 minutes of on-air staring at the camera in silence as intense looping breaking news music plays. Then the camera just starts drifting around the studio showing the floor, and ceiling. All while the anchorwoman remains still, silent, and emotionally dead inside.
If you don’t know what I’m referencing, just watch any youtube video called something like “news fails compilation”.
They’ll just be 30 minute videos, with 7 minutes being one continuous moment as I’ve described. It’s so hard to watch because it just KEEEEPS ON GOOOOIIIIING!!!
Good lord that was midleading for a second.
If you click a state, you can see the states individual results. In my case Ohio. So even though the counting hasn’t started, I could see Kamala Harris, and 3 independant nominees. It did NOT show trump.
I was thinking “wait, is he somehow disqualified from running in Ohio??? Is that why he’s been pissy about Ohio??? You’d think this would have been well talked about news!!!”
Nope. None of that. There’d just a push button expanding page. Why would you use an expanding page when there’s only 5 items on the list??? And if you ARE going to cut off one candidate in the expanding list, why not one of the three independants who may as well all be named “Why bother???”.
But then you expant the list, and trump is number 5 in the presidential race in Ohio…with all 5 sitting at 0%.
Of note, Kamala is #2.
Just answer every phone call with “Hello, this is ham.” And then onwards, every single sentence you say…is about ham. But also completely unhelpful to the conversation.
“Well, Hello Mr Ham. I’m just calling today to let you know about this great oppertunity from our next presidident, Donald Trump.”
“Ham is sometimes salty”
“Uhhhh…Well, Mr Trump is seeking donations from real american patriots like yourself”
“Give me ham.”
“Ham?”
“HAM!!!”
“I don’t understand, are you saying Ham, like the food?”
“ALL THE HAM IN MY MOUTH!!!”
“Ok…we can get you some ham. We just need a donation of $50.00 today.”
“Ham runs all my descisions.”
“I…don’t understand.”
“Yes, this is ham. Can I cheese you? Right in the ham?”
“Are you ok?”
“Ham.”
This should preferably go on for 10 hours.
But it has other negative side effects if we scaled Lemmy up in scale.
For example, it doesn’t matter if you downvote me if I called you a big stinky poo poo face. Because without a larger pool of karma to detract from, it doesn’t matter HOW unpopular any singular post is.
…you big stinky poo poo face!
We’re all just here for George. Move over Evelyn! Make room for the rest of us! When do we get a mod to marrry George??? I mean…Evelyn can watch…but George is MINE!!! 1.5k users all agree! George is the best!
Psshhhhh, nobody wants Abigail or Hailey! It’s all about GEORGEY-POO!!!
Ok…but, like lets say both sides are fighting each other, and the national guard is brought in. The national guard has to follow the orders of the govenor. Which means, that each individual state may have different orders on who to shoot.
And then what if the guards themselves don’t agree with the orders, and now you’ve just brought in an armed military, who’s fighting amongst themselves, as a smaller statewide riot, which in itself is a smaller part of a national riot.
Now you got national guardsmen shooting each other, and nothing was solved. Ok, so you bring in the army. Ok, but again, what if the army itself is split 50/50?
Now what?
I propose a much safer and much simplier plan. You round everybody up, and make everybody stick a metalic dildo up their ass. And these dildos will also be tazers. So now everybody in the country has a tazer up their ass. Even trump and Kamala. Even Biden. Everybody gets a tazer shock up their butthole at 7pm nightly. And if you’ve been bad, you get harder shocks at all times.
Ok. Now everybody has better things to worry about than what they said on fox news, or cnn.
See? I just fixed all the problems in America. I think that means I’m ready to rule earth now.
BOW DOWN PUNY PEASANTS!!! FOR I AM YOUR RULER, AND I COMMAND THAT EVERYBODY EAT CHOCOLATE AND JUMP ON POGO STICKS UNTIL WE SHIFT EARTH OFF IT’S ROTATIONA AXIS OF THE SUN!!!
Ah, yes, clearly a woman and the bear in her life that she’s romantically connected to in the 1950s. Where media can’t portray married couples to sleep in the same bed. Nothing wrong with that!
And that’s just her jealous neighbor, trying to spy on them catching them in the act of some nafarious scheme, only to find a happy couple sleeping peacefully.
Clearly this post doesn’t belong here. The context is TOO obvious.
How does this not have more upvotes??? Go talk stardew, people! And name your animals BORT!!!
If that happened here, the headline would read “Protester killed in street by apathetic driver. Suspect has not been named.”
Oh…yeah, I was thinking it was much darker. It sounds like some kind of metalic tub that you put children in to rape them in the fields of Alaska at an oil rig job.
At least with mistress’s and partners consent is a key factor.
Or doesn’t know the meaning of concubines.
I don’t know the meaning of that word either, but based on context I assume it’s because I’m not into any sketchy shit.
You’re right. It doesn’t make logical sense.
Oh, I meant you. You just tried to read a tweet where a republican just admitted to being a pedo, and your first instinct was to try to follow the logic.
That corse of action doesn’t make logical sense!
Well, for only 4 easy payments of $2,000,000 each, I can show you the ways to not be you! You know when you were 5 years old, and your mom said to just be yourself?
She lied.
I’m already decided. I’m not buying GTA 6. And GTA 6 was the whole reason I bought the PS5 to begin with.
Over the past year I’ve seen how rockstar are making moves to make GTA 6 even more of a pay to win multiplayer experience, and less focused on the $60 single player experience. All of this at a $60 or more price point to start with I’m sure.
If you want to be pay to win, you can’t also be AAA pricepoint to buy the game. I personally don’t play pay to win games, but when you charge for the base game it goes from being a sketchy game mechanic, to being an outright scam.
You know what I’m playing right now on PS5? Transportation Fever 2. Fuck off Rockstar. You lost me as a lifelong customer since the first GTA on PS1.
If the thing is going to be an add-on, what’s stopping people from buying the drive, and connecting it to their regular PS5?
I…I’m not sure this is unpopular, so much as it is nit-picky. It would be like saying your favorite nut can’t be honey roasted peanuts simply because the peanut isn’t a nut at all. It’s a legume. Doesn’t mean you wouldn’t be arrested for attempted murder if you force fed someone peanuts who had a known nut allergy.
Dammit. This made me laugh, and I hate that THIS of all jokes is the one to crack me…
Uhhhhhh…are you talking about the Bill O Reiley outburst about Sting? Then he’s yelling at the teleprompter guy, because he’s an idiot who works in television who doesn’t know the phrase “play us out”?
Because that had nothing to do with Fox News…or Satalite broadcasts. Those were supposed to be pretaped bumpers for the closing segment of Entertainment Tonight. But he goes off on a hissy fit, and then starts yelling “THIS THING SUCKS! IT SUCKS!!! PLAY US OUT!!! WHAT DOES THAT MEAN??? FUCK IT!!! WE’LL DO IT LIVE!!! I’LL WRITE IT, YOU SHOOT IT!!! FUCKING THING SUCKS!!!”
This was the 90s, before Bill O’Reiley was a Fox News talking head.
Unless you’re talking about something else. Which could be the case.
