Well, we’ve got Floridick ready and waiting, so that works, but I’m sorry about the itchiness and rash you’re gonna probably want to treat. We’re more like Canada’s Dirty Diaper these days.

Well pants is British for underwear, so it still works!

Returned to Spain? Traitor!

Hmm, idiocracy fits I guess. Seems to describe our country well enough.

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 5 points 14 hours ago

“Yucatán”

Which means “the end of your finger” because the Spanish asked some folks what they were pointing at and they didn’t understand the question

[–] Evil_incarnate@lemm.ee 3 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Trumpland. Trumptopia. United states of Trump. Trumplvania. The new republic of Trump.

You missed Trumpistan

[–] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 3 points 13 hours ago (1 children)
