Fuckin way she goes, boys, fuckin way she goes.

Sounds like the setup for a Norm Macdonald Weekend Update joke

"A Chinese-owned tanker under U.S. sanctions has passed the Strait of Hormuz despite the U.S. naval blockade…

Reached for comment, the captain of the ship said “SHHH!”

FREE Healthcare in Mexico???

How will mom cross the US-Mexico line to buy a month of lifesaving medication for 1/10th the price now???

In this day and age, literally anything sounds like it could be true, so I try to take some especially inflammatory things with a healthy grain of salt.

Also, with a suspiciously generic name like “Free Press”, you bet I’m looking at your credentials!

Hmmm, human chains ended horribly for the protesters a couple months back, I wonder how this will

April Fools!

Based!?

Damn, I typed up a couple paragraphs explaining why only a child can’t understand an enforced two party system, and why an American third party is only ever a spoiler.

TL:YNWW

Control primaries, control a party. Trump’s current VP alternated calling DT America’s Hitler and America’s Heroin. He then fell in line because everyone who didn’t got primaried by a Trumptard.

If you want change, win primaries.

I’m tired boss…

That joke aside, does anyone else find swapping out UPS batteries bizarrely satisfying? Every time I heft one of those APC rack batteries and slot em in, I walk out of the server room with a smile on my face!

Fuck, maybe I need to answer the call of the void and work as a tradie XD

Yessss, we need more tracking in your day to day because drunks, yesssss, or the children, yessss, or uh, err, uhhh, teenagers, yessssss!

Please give us all your data! For safety reasons, yesssssa

A “great question”? Or just AI brain in action?

Only you can explain what the fuck you’re talking about/prevent wildfires

Lmao what??? Vance is a twatwad, but still your solution is moar coal??

Yes, let’s ally with the #1 Coal country and replace oil/gas with that sweet dirty dirty!

What? Building data centers in a region known for a constant lack of regional stability in order to take advantage of cheap land and labor isn’t working out???

Get ready for the tide of downvotes!

Your comment also does several things at once.

1. Still fails to tell why sinking a warship gets more comment than literally massacring protesters or literally bombing a school.

2. I was operating under the basic assumption we’re adults who agree war is evil, and people die in wars. War is never fucking “A-OK” as you describe it. 2a. War exists, war is inherently evil, because humans are humans. If you volunteer for war, and then don’t want to participate, surrender yourself to a neutral country.

3. WOAOWOOWWOWOW a nation didn’t actually do the political process of " I declare war"??? Grow up.

Throughout the full history of submarine warfare, warning “unarmed” ships they should surrender has resulted in submarines getting blown the fuck out of the water by “unarmed” ships.

How is this “brutal and shocking”? They could have sailed to a neutral port and surrendered to the neutral nation, as another Iranian ship just did.

Submarines haven’t asked for surrenders in over a century. They stopped because ships that “should be unarmed” kept blowing them out if the water once they gave up stealth. Would you gamble your ship and crew on an Iranian warship following wargames rules to the T?

Did that first, found the article filled with emotion and lacking explanation. Thanks for the coolguy snappy comment instead of explaining that view tho. It’s a warship, not a hospital boat. It’s designed to shoot missiles, shells, and torpedos.

Submarines haven’t surfaced to ask for surrenders since WW1. They stopped during, because asking for surrenders resulted in getting blown out of the water by ships that “should be” unarmed. If you were captain, would you gamble everyone on board your ship by giving up a submarine’s greatest weapon, stealth, on the assumption a warship belonging to a rules-flouting authoritarian regime is following the rules?

I also don’t understand that would be a sticking point. It was in international waters when it was sank, so I assume it was returning home to get armed with shells, torpedoes, and missiles. Why wait for a warship to become an active threat before striking it?

It presumably had the option to either surrender itself to a neutral port, as another Iranian warship has done, or fly the white flag.
