Um.... what.... aka, this is the dumbest thing I've ever read

Holiday In Cambodia needs serious context to listen to, not least because it’s espousing the opposite of what the lyrics are saying. It’s like a more extreme version of when that person in Newfoundland tried to get “Money for Nothing” banned because it uses the word “faggot”, apparently not understanding that it’s not an endorsement.

And of course HIC used the n-word, which is a whole other category of nope again.

Let’s just say I only sing along with the chorus.

Edited for autocorrect and my dire lack of tea (three cups in, still ineffective. Usually it’s kicked in by now.)

Yep. I did hear a live version from Jello in the early aughts where it was sung

Braggin’ how you know how the black man feels the cold

Or something like that. Same set list where California Uber Alles talked about Gov. Arnold.

The mountain holds a special place in the country’s identity and is feted as the birthplace of Kim Jong-un’s father.

“His march on horseback in Mt Paektu is a great event of weighty importance in the history of the Korean revolution,” said a KCNA report released on Wednesday. “Sitting on the horseback atop Mt Paektu, [he] recollected with deep emotion the road of arduous struggle he covered for the great cause of building the most powerful country, with faith and will as firm as Mt Paektu.”

Surprised it wasn’t a unicorn. Or maybe they are saving the unicorn for the big reveal.

That’s $68 million that everyone else had to cover. When will the 39% realize that? Maybe now that it’s a black man benefiting from their racism-over-all political voting pattern?

For whatever reason, she apparently got the snake out and she was doing what people do with snakes.

I was amazed to learn that a stone can occur in the nasal cavity of all places, and is called a “rhinolith.” (E.g., a kidney stone is a “nephrolith”.) Apparently the rubber container had calcified.

I wonder if anyone stole the stone and smoked it.

Well, it said the rhinolith contained “degenerate vegetable matter”, which I guess means the weed had rotted, as opposed to being a moral judgement.

My question is if he got charged for possession (if weed isn’t legal where he had the operation).
