It felt the same about the rest of the world but didn’t have good options. We even got dragged into Vietnam by Charles de Gaulle

Sadly, no one knows these things anymore

So Japan didnt drop a flaming pooh parcel on the doorstep? Or they did but that wasnt the reason they joined?

Or was it that the need to prove ones bigness by dropping the mother of all bombs on what was (arguably) a beaten opponent just to prove superiority? And data...

Data from the twin bombs was invaluable in creating and prolonging the cold war. Physical and measurable evidence of the power of da bomb.

Also. A Flaming pooh parcel was what convinced the yanks into a war they didnt want.
Ha. Pooh parcel.

A sad trend stemming from this is the promotion of the occasional idgaf comedian, whose jokes are not actually very funny, but are appealing cause he's breakin' the rules, man! It's a fine line to walk. Matt rife is not funny at all to me, but shane gillis is hilarious, yet they're both considered rebels or something.

Couldn't agree more. Rife just doesn't seem genuine, feels like an act where Gillis comes off more true to self.

Kate zugged too hard and just needed a break from zugging.

Less evil than Japan and Germany, sure, but that wasn’t obvious at the time to an American observer asking why farm boys in Iowa should die so that Britain could hold Singapore and Bombay

Yeah and don’t be a sadistic pedophile, see, you already cleared the interview and aren’t as bad as Andrew

Go to 10 Downing and ask Raita Sunak or whatever his name is to hand you the royal scepter and kick the Windsors to the curb

No idea who Matt rife is but Shane Gillis is hilarious. He’s the first funny white comedian since Ricky Gervais

I guess the bald guy from Boston married to the black lady is also occasionally funny, but I enjoyed him more in the mandalorian than I did his standup

Re: Bill Burr - Breaking is too common now. Be funny on your own, don't try to trick me by laughing at your own jokes.

Netflix picked up Shane Gillis & Team's show "Tires" should be pretty gud, same people who do Gilly and keeves sketch comedy with him on youtube.
