But who will be our representative for Jewish Space Lasers?? Imagine the atrocities of such an unchecked system!!
This would have been funnier before October
Eh, the comical insanity of antisemitism is still worthy of mockery.
Sorry, being chronically late is sort of my character flaw.
In your defense, the Jewish space lasers is still an astoundingly stupid idea. It's just that Israel's current right-wing government seems to have been smoking whatever it is that made Marge the way she is.
250 years from now scientist, anthropologists will figure out that it was something in the air. Something like a mushroom spore, except, instead of making us hideous and monster like on the outside, it did it on the inside. But it only affected a certain group of people henceforth referred to as the GOP and its caucus.
The infection is getting worse.
I still think it's funny. It might be even better now, because based on Israel's current record if Israel has control over it then they sure as hell would be using it about now.
I was thinking more of all the civilians that have been killed and wounded, and all the others displaced and starving. And how that’s not funny at all.
Sure, but we'd never find anything funny if every time people suffered we had to stop. MTG has almost nothing to do with that and laughing at her makes me feel better, so I'll keep laughing.
I feel for those people too, and so many others, but I can't handle thinking about that constantly for my entire life. There's always something we should feel for.
True, and I didn’t say we shouldn’t make the joke. I just said I would have been more funny before October.
