Denmark should send a single egg, accompanied by a note offering assistance in these trying times.

Okay, we'll give you 1 million eggs for the state of Alaska.

Buy Manhattan for some eggs and blankets

Spoiler: the blankets are infected with measles

[–] SilverCode@lemm.ee 2 points 2 hours ago

If you really wanted to screw them over, you would infect the blankets with measles vaccine.

Wait until they wrap the blanket around themselves and then jump out from behind the door and shout "haha! You're now immune to measles! Sucker!"

While threatening their colony?

[–] dhork@lemmy.world 30 points 6 hours ago

Denmark should deliver the extra eggs, personally and ballistically, right to the White House door.

lmao, the same people we are bullying for Greenland?! lmao.

[–] AbouBenAdhem@lemmy.world 24 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

This is how Trump will spin his failed conquest of Greenland: it was really just a ploy to extort eggs from Denmark.

[–] ploot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 22 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Eggstort. Come on, people.

[–] xmunk@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Gosh, the egg on their face after missing that one.

[–] ploot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

It really was quite eggregious.

[–] billiam0202@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

These egg puns are atrocious. I'll be glad when they're ova.

[–] Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world 1 points 56 minutes ago

What was the OP even about? This conversation is totally scrambled.

[–] lolola@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 6 hours ago

It's like they took every stupid political meme in today's discourse, put them into a bag, shook it up, and pulled something out at random.

Is this flooding the zone? Am I being baited?

"Go fist yourself." - Denmark.

You can't make this shit up

[–] catloaf@lemm.ee 12 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

You could, but people would tell you that's fucking stupid and a terrible story.

Yes, realism is a really important part of fiction.
