Do we know for a fact that headline wasn't made with that game where you blindly put <noun> <adverb> <verb> etc. and then read a crazy story?


I had a search and found Pulmotors were used from 1907 up to the 1940's, but I couldn't find any puzzle editors injured by elephants in that time frame.

In fact as far as I can tell the internet doesn't seem to think elephants and puzzle editors have ever interacted in anyway at all!

If this article is to be believed that's probably for the best.

Oh Steven King definitely has an outline for a short story like that in a drafts draw somewhere from back in the 70/80's.

If only it had been published someone would be posting the link to the hilariously lovely made for tv movie made from it right now.

Also who can eat a whole barrel worth of pickles, it take years? Like you wouldn't want to ware it with the pickles still inside, and throwing them out would be wasteful.

Now a potato barrel. Could empty that out in like six months.

If she shoves him out of the way like sheila broflovski when he wins and just starts calling the shots, I feel like it would still be a better than average presidency

I mean considering how bad a lot of US presidents -and politicians in general- are, that's a pretty low bar, so yeah, pretty safe bet.

Seemingly pretty much the only none poo poo billionaire is a pretty good CV at the least.

They could elect TayTay with a photogenic golden retriever as the VP and it would be a better presidency than Trump’s.

Hey everyone knows golden retrievers arn't allowed to be VP. Do you have any idea what sort of ridiculously advantage that would be having you VP be an adorable golden retriever? Who the hell would vote against someone has a golden retriever on the ticket?

And it's not like a golden retriever wouldn't be able to do the role of Vice president. They're very smart dogs.

The Labour candidate was recorded saying Oct. 7 was a false flag by Israel to give them an excuse to destroy Gaza. Labour dropped them and effectively didn't run a candidate at all. The Tory candidate literally went on holiday during the election. Meanwhile Galloway went in hard on the entire British establishment supporting Israel's genocide.

Hahaha, yep that will do it I guess.

You have upset the Japanese delegation.

”Noro” is a Japanese surname. They want everyone to say “Norwalk virus”.

Hey just because one of their family members happens to be a lovely virus doesn't mean they can just try and change their name without their consent. Unless the Noro Virus wants to be called by another name, than it's only polite to call it by it's name. :colbert:

I would have assumed bush doof is an insult for Australian rural people, but apparently it's an event?

It's just a EDM gig in the bush. Traditionally it's just a small usually illegally run thing. like 10-200 people with the set up being made out of just as much stuff as can fit int the back of a van. I'd just call that a music festival.

Bush doof is more something like this:

Every now and then I think about the woman who voted for Trump, and then mere months after his inauguration her law abiding, restaurant owning husband was deported for being undocumented. She said she thought Trump would just deport the criminals but her husband was rushed to Mexico by ICE in order to prevent possible legal proceedings to keep him from being deported.

Looks like there was a follow up a year later where she and the kids moved to Mexico to be with the dad while the town itself basically shrugged its shoulders and moved on.

Does she still mail in her vote for trump ever election?

I hear same amount of rabbits as well. Oh why, oh why did Apollo 11 have to bring those breeding pairs of rabbits to hunt, they were only there like not even a day!

Have you looked at the moon recently and seen what those darn rabbits have done to the vegetation there :(

That's why you shouldn't let your cruise ships out to sea. Keep them at home!

They should ground them all in one place in a desert wasteland somewhere, making some sort of cruise ship city. Like vegas but somehow tackier.

It will make them much easier to avoid if they're all in one place.
