The heresy! How do I disprove it? :p


Eating the heart of my clone seemed to do the trick...

Unfortunately, I'm fasting, so eating the twin will be shelved until Eid or when it's time to break the fast at the very least :p

But good idea. I'm going to call the CIA now.

I would normally say this probably won't happen, but in this year with this president... who knows anymore.

This is why a drone general strike would be such a horrible idea.

As long as it slips up the same way every time it passes ISO 9000. So End of the day if it passes ISO that is all the auditors care about, so its good.


Btw What i just said is a true statement. Functionality is not a criteria for ISO

Yes, well, in 2020 I'm not taking anything for granted. In the 116 days this year has been around, we've seen WW3 almost start, Australia nearly burned to the ground, COVID-19, Kobe Bryant died, and Chernobyl was nearly burned in a forest fire (still the radiation levels did increase in the fire zone). We've 250 more days remaining in this year.

The last few pages of Kim's thread makes me laugh so hard that mom actually shows up at my room and demands to see what causes me to laugh like that.

I am just waiting for Ri Chun-lee to appear on NK state TV wailing and gnashing her teeth like the worst disaster in the history of mankind has befallen North Korea. Then a moment later to seem to beam from ear to ear as she announces the ascension of Kim Jong-un's replacement as if it was the greatest even in the history of mankind.

Probably not, but it's worth the watch I can tell you! This is how it went when Kim Jong-Il died: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gewq-TxP8QE
