I'd settle for a Trebuchet emoji, because I'm fine with flinging billionaires across the landscape at high speeds.
Honestly, a lot more fun than a guillotine, imho. Think about the ragdolling as they tumble in the air.
EDIT: Also, the longer the hangtime, the longer they have to think about the decisions that led them to people wanting to fling their body a few miles with a trebuchet. No forced self reflection with a guillotine.
~~eat the rich~~ fling the rich at high velocities
Not quite as catchy, but that does sound amusing!
I doubt they'd spend the hangtime thinking about their transgressions.
It would more useful for other billionaires to see the hangtime and imagining that, as a deterrent.
Yes this is a completely pedantic comment
We all need a little pedantry sometimes.
I’m imagining an event like the old school Punkin Chunkin, where people build elaborate devices to try and fling a pumpkin as far and as accurately as possible. Call it The Billionaire Fling and wherever the billionaires land is where they get buried.
Have amusement rides, bounce houses, fair food, etc, and donate all proceeds to food banks and homeless shelters.
Call it Yeet the Elite
Yes yes yes please let's normalize this
That’s so much better, and I’m upset that I didn’t think of it myself.
Fucking love it.
You aren’t responsible for random “Dingus” stickers all over SLC and PDX are you🤨🧐
no, that's some other dingus.

I had such high hopes of solving the mystery finally hahaha. Cool username none the less!
While fun to think about, they probably end up at least knocked out if not dead before they even get released.
Surely there's a fine tuning that maximises air time while not rendering them unconscious for the trip.
