Trump just posted a survey to prove that the media is biased. These things never get swarmed with internet trolls loving with the results

He probably won't release the raw results, but it's enough to imagine him looking at them and fuming.

A crazy extreme-right-wing anti-renewable-energy politician here in Australia just tried to conduct a Twitter poll, it didn't turn out how he expected:

He's a crazy SovCit weirdo that someone got attached to a party which picked up some votes and got himself into the Senate.

There's no real schadenfreude here - just tragedy all around, really - but I felt like the regulars of this thread would appreciate this anyway:

"It's just a prank! It's just a prank! It's..." ...the assassination of a world leader's exiled half-brother.

quote:

An Indonesian woman arrested for suspected involvement in the killing of the North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un�s half-brother in Malaysia was duped into thinking she was part of a comedy show prank, Indonesia�s national police chief has said, citing information received from Malaysian authorities.

Tito Karnavian told reporters in Indonesia�s Aceh province that Siti Aisyah, 25, was paid to be involved in pranks.

He said she and another woman performed stunts which involved convincing men to close their eyes and then spraying them with water.

�Such an action was done three or four times and they were given a few dollars for it, and with the last target, Kim Jong-nam, allegedly there were dangerous materials in the sprayer,� Karnavian said. �She was not aware that it was an assassination attempt by alleged foreign agents.�

It's generally considered common sense to spoil the guys standing between you and the masses that loathe you as much as possible. So here's to hoping they go through with this and we can get a double dose of schadenfreude.

Yeah I thought it was in that video but had a hard time finding it for a moment.

Embed in my post should start at the right time now.

I agree that it can�t be bluffing if everyone at the table knows you aren�t even looking at your cards.
