always frustrating when you try to raise a point that is fucked up about Society with someone and they reply "it's always been like this". Yeah, and? Don't you want society to be better? "It's always been like this though" BUT THATS NOT THE POINT? ISNT THAT FUCKED UP THAT ITS LIKE THIS?
Actually I'm convinced team ties in MCC is Skizz's doing.
He looked at Etho, Tango, and Scott with the biggest, soggiest puppy dog eyes known to man and said pwwwwwease and they broke down like cybertrucks in 1 inch of gravel.
Cub: We’re off to send some mail, ladies and gentlemen! This is the first time I’ve sent mail to somebody, except when I sent Etho a wooden hoe named “Your Mom”
Cub: Uh, the next 'Ask Jarvis' question... I had a lot of people asking me about the Superbowl. Uh, so the American football, uh, Superbowl coming up this Sunday, New England Patriots vs. the Philadelphia Eagles, so I'm gonna ask Jarvis: Will the Patriots win the Superbowl?
[Jarvis produces a paper]
Cub: (Reading from paper) "The Convex would do it". Yep! You're right, the Convex absolutely would win the Superbowl, hands down, uh, with- yeah, without a doubt. Without a doubt. Convex would easily win the Superbowl against any team. So, that's really what's important here. Doesn't matter if the Patriots win or the Eagles win, what matters is the Convex definitely would win if we were playing. So I mean, two men versus uh, two- two, y'know, Convex versus an entire team of, y'know, professional athletes? Hah! We'd cheat our way to the top. Guaranteed, guaranteed.
wait. cancel post. gung-ho cannot be English. where did that phrase come from? China?
ok, yes. gōnghé, which is…an abbreviation for “industrial cooperative”? Like it was just a term for a worker-run organization? A specific U.S. marine stationed in China interpreted it as a motivational slogan about teamwork, and as a commander he got his whole battalion using it, and other U.S. marines found those guys so exhausting that it migrated into English slang with the meaning “overly enthusiastic”.
That’s…wild. What was I talking about?
