I'm "open" to Donald Trump getting locked in the VX gas vault like that dude at the beginning of The Rock.

I would also "accept" Nicholas Cage slamming some in his mouth like that dude at the end of The Rock.

Everyone, go watch The Rock.

Incorrect, that is the ”string of pearls” configuration.

Not enough mentions of Zeus’ butthole for my taste. I need at least 2 more utterances of the phrase before I can watch it again.

Winners go home and fuck the prom queen!

Oh you see, it's you. You're the rocket man!

Carla was the prom queen.

Listen, all I want to know is...are you happy with your haircut?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Is this the third prong of a three prong attack? Subliminal, liminal and superliminal. "HEY, YOU! JOIN THE NAVY!"

Are we just doing house of cards now

He is. He probably thinks he's smarter than everyone else acting it out too.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Well shit, I'm open to being his vice president too. Why wouldn't anyone take the job? Now that being president surrounds you with a bubble of legal immunity, the vice president is free to grant himself a good old fashioned Klingon promotion. Stab him in the neck with a pen, sign some papers with his blood in an official act, and all the evidence is inadmissible.

If chosen for Vice President I vow to go out and rob a liquor store on Day 1.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Id take advantage of that level of proximity and...well...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

You just have to do everything he tells you and never go against him otherwise he'll get his idiotic followers to try and kill you.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 month ago

Its beginning to show, that politicians no longer need to have any skill what so ever besides the ability to not care

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 month ago

Here we go jumping timelines again.

Which ex-wife?

Ans.

spoilerMarla Maples

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Has to be Marla. Ivana is buried in his New Jersey golf course. Not a joke.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 month ago (1 children)

~~Ivana is~~ A bunch of the secrets he stole from the government are buried in his New Jersey golf course.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Why did you bury your wife on the golf course? It would help me avoid taxes.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

Shit. I missed that. Thank you.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago

This is the most beta thing I've ever heard.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

That picture confused me because I thought she was wearing a MAGA hat in the 90s.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

The one that's alive, yeah?........ yeah?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Well that's one way to have him kill you
