fyallm posted:Really? Hummmm, i thought it had happened a couple times.. I guess it was a dumb question then... rip not in modern us political history. the closest thing we got was ford almost getting primaried by reagan, and ford was a)not an elected president, b) not an elected vice president, and c) had a liberated wife who talked about how much she loved to gently caress, and reagan was already on his path to becoming the patron saint of the republican party and even then the insurgent didn't come out on top

GhostofJohnMuir posted:kals, can you explain why there is an extensive wikipedia page dedicated to russian jokes? russian political jokes were a big part of the informal opposition identity, and many were forbidden it's a fascinating genre, because it doesn't surrender the political to the humor but rather enhances it - the system being funny is exactly the problem!

The fuckers removed an entire character from the US edition of Archer's "First among Equals" because they thought American readers simply wouldn't grasp the concept of a democratic system (I.e. having multiple parties)

Jerry Cotton posted:So what do you call the... normal seats in a car? Oh, I totally hadn’t realized this was why it was confusing. Yeah, English is stupid. You just call them seats. Normally this isn’t confusing because context makes it clear you mean the seat in a car.

I feel like I'm lacking Americanism to get what he's annoyed about. The joke is that libertarians don’t want the government to require people to put children in special child-safety car seats (usually just called “car seats” in both US and UK English, as far as I’m aware, though I’m sure there’s some obscure regionalism from New England or somewhere in the UK that’s different) and also that they’re pedophiles and want to gently caress the children
