What’s really frustrating about Liz Truss is she is too stupid to understand how stupid she is. If she could wrap her head around that, she might just shut up and we’d never have to hear from her again.
Dunning Kruger…
let’s see you become britain’s second female prime minister.
EDIT : OK, I guess
- The joke that she was already britain’s nth female prime minister didn’t go well
- Theresa May was britain’s second female prime minister, truss was the third
- to be clear, she achieved nothing and to hell with her.
lol, I still don’t really get the joke, but sympathy upvote based on the edit because I hate when that happens to me <3
the joke is "oh, you think you’re so much better than her? Let’s see you achieve the only achievement she has (becoming the third female british prime minister) when you can’t become the third of anything AGAIN.
I guess it all got fumbled and was shit to begin with.
Probably US Defaultism didn’t help. heh. I watch panelshows so I know a little more news than the average, but it still whooshed me.
I think it wasn’t so much poorly done as just didn’t land quite well AND once anything gets a downvote or two, it snowballs. heh.
Thank you for explaining. I may not be falling down laughing, but I am quite amused. <3
My favourite joke was to refer to her as “Conservative party backbencher, Liz Truss” but after looking her up on Wikipedia, I see that she has since lost her seat, so even that doesn’t work.
She’s definitely not the only politician in that predicament.
Well, if the tories - and Truss particularly - had remained in power until then, I can imagine that a lot of people would be taking extreme measure to get away, so I can see her point.
They’d be sent up as indentured servants, as that would be many people’s only way of survival in perma-austerity. Those who got close to putting away enough company-store credits for the voyage back would find their oxygen bills algorithmically surge-priced upwards.
Maybe she’s born with it, maybe it’s ketamine.
The lettuce was smarter
She should romaine quiet on concepts she doesn’t grasp.
You sunk her just like an iceberg.
That joke is a little gem, that is.
Why? To escape her and her policies?
Brexit 2, the UK leaves the Earth altogether to defeat the small boats once and for all
That is actually canonical in Dr Who. They call it Starship UK.
They have a robotic Suella Braverman that tries to shoot down the TARDIS. If a small boat is bigger on the inside, it still counts.
and they leave by lobotomizing a star whale and building the new UK on its back as it swims through the stars
Make up for lost time and send her on a rocket into the sun.
surprisingly hard thing to do ,
it turns out, aiming for the Sun without the rocket ultimately orbiting it is not easy at all
We choose these things not because they are easy, but because they are hard.
The shooting Liz Truss to the sun initiative may be the only way for her to make a contribution to science.
We may need to call upon the lettuce once more
As long as we get close, we don’t have to get the Roche limit. The air will get heated to oven temps regardless
We know, and yet that is the choice regardless.
It suggests an as yet unseen level of dedication to ridding the universe of such a deeply offensive, absolute fucking cretin.
As a wonderful side project, we can see just how many despicable bodies we can physically cram into probably a SpaceX capsule, like a Tokyo subway train carriage. Musk, Trump, Vance, Putin, Netanyahu, Ben-Gvir, Farage, and Milei can start the proceedings. I’m sure we can collectively suggest more.
Maybe they meant fire her at The Sun (1 London Bridge Street, London, SE1 9GF).
That’s not what I meant, but it would be good enough, and cheaper than a shot at ol’ Sol.
It’s easier if you do it at night.
Also, it can be done, despite it being hard: https://science.nasa.gov/mission/parker-solar-probe/
good point, but still :
Parker will fly more than seven times closer to the Sun than any spacecraft. Over seven years, the spacecraft will complete 24 orbits around the Sun. At its closest approach, the spacecraft will come within about 3.9 million miles (6.2 million kilometers) of the Sun.
so it still orbits it, and won’t get closer than 6 MILLION km
I think this gal has a better chance at making it to Mars than Liz…
Lettuce consider the possibility.
Bitch you couldn’t outlast a cabbage.
sounds like she just volunteered to be sent to Mars
She can live there with Elon. $5 says they kill each other on the way there.
so THAAAATS what happened to the crew of the Hail Mary
If you read the book that’s actually the reason why they put them in medical comas. They feared they’d get cabin fever and kill each other on the trip.
Fuckin A. That makes sense.
I initially planned on reading it but I had already started The Captives War and I wasn’t about to stop.
If my granny had wheels, she’d be a shopping trolley
I’m pretty sure she is right. Where else would Brits be safe from her incompetence?
Yeah living conditions on Earth would be so vile that we’d go to Mars and leave her behind.
Or send her to Mars, and leave her to figure out how to get herself back.
