Disappointing, I was looking forward to them carpet bombing the Superbowl.

illegal-to-say You can't fucking say that, dude! That's illegal!

no-copyright You have to call it "the Big Game" or you're gonna get sued.

Well funny you mention because in their place they are adding another B-1 bomber to the air show lol.

That's 2031.

Yeah just tell them it's a Puerto Rican guy doing the halftime show and they might consider it

The military worship at sporting events is so disgusting.

[–] Pentacat@hexbear.net 19 points 1 day ago

It is disgusting, but the military pays for it like advertising spots.

[–] Johnny_Arson@hexbear.net 10 points 1 day ago

Yeah I asked @knfrmity@lemmygrad.ml to make a post specifically for that from my original thread:

It would be the most MuriKKKan thing on earth to start a major war during a sportsball event.

They're gonna bomb Iran during Bad Bunny's performance kril-drained

[–] Johnny_Arson@hexbear.net 18 points 1 day ago

I feel like this is troublingly likely.

[–] ComradeChairmanKGB@lemmygrad.ml 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The superbowl doesn't have any water for them to fall into so they've gotta go elsewhere

[–] Johnny_Arson@hexbear.net 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's the F35 that keeps falling off carriers.

[–] frisbird@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No, the F-35s are the ones that just crash into the ground while flying. They dropped F-18s off the carriers while evading anti-ship missiles

[–] ZWQbpkzl@hexbear.net 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Correct. F-22s are so expensive, high-tech, and secretive, that the only action they ever saw was shooting down the Chinese weather balloon.

[–] Weedian@hexbear.net 3 points 21 hours ago (1 children)
[–] Johnny_Arson@hexbear.net 2 points 14 hours ago

They missed with their cannons and had to use an even more expensive missile.

Green Day in shambles having clearly shown they are gonna be American idiots

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 22 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Oh hey I forgot to tell you yesterday, the pic you snapped of those fighters, I think they were escorting a bomber and not a passenger plane.

[–] Johnny_Arson@hexbear.net 15 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Yea we figured it out. I ammended the post with a picture from reddit. It was a b-1 lancer. The higher res image I uploaded was definitely the exact same formation the reddit posts were talking about for the superbowl flyover. Looks like the f22s that I saw have been pulled for "other operations" which is wild because if they can't spare just two f22s something big happening. The US has over 150 combat ready F-22 so idk what those specific planes were pulled for or if its a pilot shortage but whatever the case some bad shit going down.

Someone check in with the DC-area pizza shops, see how they're doing rn

Pizza index is at a solid Nothing Ever Happens at the moment

[–] Johnny_Arson@hexbear.net 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Shit not a bad idea. Might be skewed by the superbowl parties though.

[–] CrawlMarks@hexbear.net 18 points 1 day ago (2 children)

These are probably the only ones we have that work well.

[–] Johnny_Arson@hexbear.net 2 points 13 hours ago

That's the funny part though, these probably were assigned to the superbowl flyover because they were the least combat ready. The fact these two needed to be redirected is indicative of something big.

[–] Palacegalleryratio@hexbear.net 7 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Yeah they can’t have the only two working airframes pissing about at a pr event.

[–] CrawlMarks@hexbear.net 1 points 10 hours ago

Ehh, you definitely don't want to crash your billion dollar death machine into a super bowl team. That is one that might actually get a general strike out of Americans.

[–] Johnny_Arson@hexbear.net 6 points 1 day ago

Stalin they only had two bombs now is your chance to keep going past Berlin VS China they only have like 5 working aircraft now is your chance!

[–] tactical_trans_karen@hexbear.net 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Hey, I was correct about the ~~F22s~~ death machines. sadness-abysmal

[–] Johnny_Arson@hexbear.net 8 points 1 day ago

oh yeah I didn't specify in the post but I saw them with my own eyes, I definitely identified f22s and fa18s I just wasn't sure about the other two fighters and the larger planes.
