Maybe they can take Ted Cruz back while they're at it?

If not Canada, then maybe russia? I hear they're desprately hiring new people!

I hear the surface of the sun is granting citizenship to all those who apply.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago (2 children)

No no. Lets not fuck with the sun. If somehow the sun goes out, we're all fucked. If they have some issue in russia, thats a them problem.

Because of the sun doing what it is, chucking our worldly problems onto it will only make it more sun

[–] NegativeInf@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

If Donald Trump can poison the entire sun with his mere presence he should be dissected for science.

Texan here. You mean Rafael Edward Cruz?

The immigrant that's against immigrants?

[–] Donjuanme@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Is Rafael one of the most pretentious names these days? Fortunately it's going the way of Ruth.

who was your favorite ninja turtle? mine was donatello because the staff was the best weapon

[–] MajorHavoc@programming.dev 6 points 10 months ago

I'm with you, except I think the Turtle Van was the best weapon. Followed closely by the Turtle Blimp.

This is the most intelligent and informed conversation I've had in the context of TFG all year, by the way.

Neerrrrddd

Michelangelo all the way baby. (I most identify with donation though, but Leonardo was the best, and aptly named after the best of the sources)

[–] Frog@lemmy.ca 3 points 10 months ago

Mine was Rafael because he was the biggest asshole.

No one wants Ted Cruz

[–] MushuChupacabra@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)
