Yesterday: Nobody gets that anymore, we don't have to monitor it any more.

Today: Turns out, the reason nobody was getting that, was because we were monitoring it.

NOBODY could have predicted that!

Its like having a functional IT department.

You'll probably find that the EPA rollbacks we've been doing around irrigation laws is what's causing the issue in the first place. Too much poop in the salad mix.

Exactly why I don’t buy American produce, and strongly advise others against it as well.

[–] Levi@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 days ago

I try, but I can't find some things, like Canadian onions at the stores. :(

wait, haven't you switched to a beef tallow and raw milk diet yet?

[–] Bob_Robertson_IX@discuss.tchncs.de 44 points 6 days ago (2 children)

The rumor is that this parasite is what killed Lindsey Graham.

It's a rumor I'm starting, so pass it along.

poor man was so anal retentive that he was full of shit.

[–] VieuxQueb@lemmy.ca 3 points 5 days ago

It's why he shit was coming out of his mouth all the time. So full that it constantly backed up. Anal retention is dangerous, kids.

You're like the tenth person I've heard that from.

Am I helping?

When we said the US were becoming a shithole... we didn't expect them to become one so literally.

MAGAts are bringing so many good things to America.

[–] Marshezezz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 6 days ago

We should all be thanking our local magats by getting them fired from their jobs, even if it means lying, and stomping them in the streets

[–] Murse@slrpnk.net 33 points 6 days ago (1 children)

We took a personification of disease, and made him Health Secretary. Dafuq did we expect would happen?

Shitting ourselves is far from the worst case scenario here.

[–] CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago (2 children)

One of the four horsemen of the apocalypse, shit, I figured death would be more intimidating though, not just an over privileged moron

[–] arrow74@lemmy.zip 17 points 6 days ago (1 children)
[–] CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago (5 children)

I thought they were death, war, conquest and famine, though maybe famine and pestilence go together

[–] arrow74@lemmy.zip 10 points 6 days ago (2 children)

You are correct, apparently a lot of media/fiction authors swap conquest to pestilence because they feel like it's too close to war.

So yeah I had that wrong, biblical speaking

The age of men is over. The time of poopie doop has begun.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 8 points 5 days ago (1 children)

That's because the parasite got into Ole Gravel Gullet's brain, fucked the dead worm, and then hijacked his last 6 brain cells to make the old bastard his puppet.

"Hurr", explained Health Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr, further elucidating with, "Duh-Durr!"

So deep and thorough... You can see why he became Health Secretary in this admin.

Is there any chance that his brain worm might finish the job? I’ve had enough about hearing of his continuing insanity and would like for him and his boss to go away.

[–] fracture@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 5 days ago

way i hear it, the poor little guy starved to death...

[–] Prathas@lemmy.zip 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

It had died in his brain, from what I remember him having said.

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Maybe it laid eggs in there before dying. It's what I would have done.

[–] Prathas@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 days ago

Maybe it couldn't because it died from low-quality food.

Don't look up!

[–] OrteilGenou@lemmy.world 7 points 5 days ago

Heeey, the less we monitor it, the easier it gets to monitor it. That's a win win!

[–] stumu415@lemmy.zip 9 points 5 days ago (1 children)

It's because the worm in his brain is constantly spewing verbal diarrhea.

Brainworm man is pro worm. long live shitworm disease.

[–] ParlimentOfDoom@piefed.zip 7 points 6 days ago

I mean, we all learned that is the best way to reduce cases...

[–] 20cello@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

Makes sense, they don't want any harm done to their own species

[–] chahn.chris@piefed.social 6 points 6 days ago (2 children)

This whole current government is basically explosive diarrhea.

This is just the literal manifestation of that fact.

If diarrhea is good enough for the President of the United States to carry around in his diaper 24/7, it's good enough for us and good enough for our salads.
