I went down to the corn-chemical exchange bank, and gave em 2 ears a corn, and they gave me 2 beakers a chemicals!

Love how the religeous claim certainty that THEIR instructions from God, and they all seem to justify their "grandad's" values as to when to break their own principles.
Ie:
Love thy neighbour but MY NEIGHBOR got a Windmill so I should be allowed to arson!
If a thief takes your cloak, also give him your coat... but no socialism for anyone I dont know, they r all lazy bums
Etc etc
No chance any of this is u know who, or maybe just your ego? Oh no, you know cause a gut feeling and old folks said so
Will add to your awsome LooneyToons level KungFu movies above:
The Ballad of Ricky Oh.
Shaolin Soccer (I panned this on title originally, its not that, its comedy gold)
In WWII, experimental weapons:
Since cats reach their terminal velocity after just aprox 3 stories fall, and are therefore better than likely to survive a drop from any height...
Allied Air Command recruited vets for the war effort, had them surgically plant incendiary bombs on timers in stray cats.
They were then airdropped over German cities, whence they would hide in flammable refuse, as cats are wont to do.
When the synchronized fuses later went off, multiple starting points created a massive firestorm, killing 10s of thousands.

Wait till they start dropping dehydrated dinosaurs, just add water....
The kicker is when your meeting your friend Jack, and yell a greeting...
But those S.S. omfg!
At a public service job, I politely listened to this jerk spiel half an hour bout brilliant you tube videos on beating speeding tickets by insisting your names all caps, on multiple occasions.
Then one time, I politely asked him to move 5 feet (was needed to continue, safety reasons). He would not, even as dozens of displaced customers also tried rational appeals. After 30 min a bus showed up and he just went and left on it.
I never saw him post covid, I frequently hope he died of his irrationality, one of very few people I feel such for. Or maybe he moved into the abandoned (prairie winter, squatting, no power or water lol) school with the Queen of Canada and company.
Speaking of tQoC, it would be fun to show up for a bit, just to Role-Play:
"Please allow me to introduce myself... I come to offer a potential marriage alliance with fair Carcossa! If you might just read this document describing the history of their king..."
"Tata mum! 'Eres your powdered eggs, as you like em, lightly poached in an 'erb broth! (tQoC: Really?) Nah!!! Their fried."
"At your command I will go get flashlight batteries, your majesty, but have you had time to consider my additional honours? Sir Dr Marquis Earl Viscount of Spusm sounds so much the better with a Baron and Royal Keeper of the Swans for good measure"
Later at local store, S.S. walks out (again) without paying ("on account old boy!")
Shopkeeper, armed, yells "Give me the money or your fucking dead!"
S.S.(audible sigh)"That's give me the money or your fucking dead, MY LORD!"
What about Israel or Trump behaviour makes you think they choose actions for the reasons YOU see as rational? Why do you presume their goals are ones you agree with (mutual self interest?)
People that believe "zero sum game" consider situations like: "we" lose half, but we make everyone else lose 3/4 = "we" win, so they would totally do that
The lack of a general strike is telling. Everyone everywhere faces hardship, but other places would have, long ago (like you should have under Regean long ago!)
Your billionaires know most of you are scabs and class traitors, they will not stop now.
Put up or shut up.
Cause, how?
USA gonna actually, really, seriously, irrevocably, cut Israeli arms supplies? If Israel crosses THAT line (again, after every other line)?
Even if now they will (they wont) but even if, why would Israel believe them? Why would Iran trust them?
Always been a toss up 'tween Faith-of-the-Hard and WalkerTexasRanger for all time memorable theme song.
Some believe Chuck Noris is "being ironic" singing his own, and adjust accordingly.
But was "the Bearded Shatner" being ironic when he stole all the Captain Kirk jokes?
Living in one of the recent cities listed
Those games were NOT PROFITABLE. The IOC, etc, SAYS they were by:
Completely discounting Policing/Security Not including any venue construction costs And a whole bunch more sleeze (not) accounting (multi Billion$, for a winter, seen 10x higher for some summer bills)
Their idiotic "profitable" rhetoric is spuriously true, if you do some bullshit accounting, whereby the ticket revenues exceed the labour bill, on-site (and never mind they conned legions of "workers" into scabbing for "room+board volunteers" which was actually a cot and hotdogs in moldy leaking freight containers)
Multi billion $ hole, that we the people pay debt servicing on eternally, and our city became a haven for international money laundering after, one of the most unaffordable places in the world now...

We can't even truly expect to communicate the dangers of these sites to our future beings.
It will be Alien/Event-Horizon/Shamma-lamma-ding-dong:"calls from inside!"
Having immediately plundered or dwelled, many many years later linguists Rosetta stone it... and probably no one accepts their findings, cause "the curse" has already been explained by "SCIENCE!" Phlogiston flow or whatnot, or political leadership will be like "Since I dont care bout future, why would anyone back then? Clearly an MohenguDarek double bluff! Send more people in, its probably secret of eternal life!"
