[Kyriakos]

We can probably just eyeball that one tbh.

Still works as current and future chancellor of Germany

Wee traitorfishy's post might have the real explanation as to why ol' Liz insists on not abdicating.

Man, just think how differently the Habsburgs would be remembered today if they had plastic surgery back then....

Probably would look like the Kardashians. Plastic surgery can't cover up being brain dead.

 

[Arakhor]

That's Karl V/Carlos I, not Carlos II. The former was definitely not stupid.

Perhaps the Mayor of London should call in the frackers.

 

[Snerk]

You wanna frack a fatberg eh?

 

[Broken_Erika]

Its only 250 meters long and weighs 130 tons....

Wait wait wait...are you implying that the Kardashians are brain dead?

I have developed a theory.

Once upon a time, long ago, when the world was young and the sun was a pretty much courted star;
dinosaurs evolved and developed intelligence, they founded a civilisation, invented fast food
and sewage systems, but being led by the Trumposaurus Rex, they were not very ecological.

When their sewers filled up, they simply just dug a new one and again and again for countless millennia.
Geological ages passed and eventually those urban areas that were not eroded became covered with
seas, sands and impermeable clays were deposited. Their fatbergs metamorphosed into oil deposits.

Oil rich reserves that could, in time, replace the North Sea.

 

[Gori the Grey]

Especially given that this one's probably just the tip of the fatberg.

Makes you think twice about wiping after you're done with business.

 

[Broken_Erika]

It's not the TP, its the Diapers, Wet Wipes, Lard and certain male contraceptive devices that get flushed down the drain.

Up at the top of the box where you write your post is a emoticon icon which, when clicked, brings up a string of smilies. TIL that up above them are five tabs, which grant access to a pluthera of smilies.

Barbarians and their feet

According to that chart, Greeks and Celts all have a condition called Morton's Toe (the second toe is longer than the big toe, which can cause pain and bleeding)
