Pretty much everyone under 50 right now: Hey, maybe killing a six year old by riddling a car with bullets then killing the paramedics trying to rescue them is a bad thing, and we should oppose it?
Alastair Campbell: Young people should get off their high horse about this.

@markarayner I have a version of this saved somewhere that I illustrated with recent front page headlines from The Daily 'Hurrah For The Blackshirts' Mail.
The part about enemies being simultaneously weak and strong, whichever fits the narrative, could absolutely be about how the UK media has described the EU in the last decade or so.

@pikesley @CloudyMrs @NAB
We were founded a thousand years ago by a man named "The Conqueror". Our 'top' universities are almost as old and haven't changed much since. One of the flags has a dragon on it. The king is canonically descended from a Norse god and must touch a magical object to be crowned. We are continually at war with The North.We are not a real country, we are a cut-price low-fantasy novel.

@cstross
Also feels like The Expanse on screen vs the books, as the adaption has fairly typical sci-fi sets, and the book is like "It was the largest office he had seen in space, 2 metres wide..." -

The Void is experiencing extremely high call volumes right now. Please hold. Your screaming is very important to us.

...and all else I had to go on was a handwritten note, hastily scribbled in red biro in the margin of the script at 2 AM from a coked-up Charlie Brooker himself, which simply said "punchable"...

...and I saw this face in a catalogue of potential actors, I wouldn't even bother to hold auditions.

...and I needed to cast someone who looked unnervingly believable in the role as a man who was outwardly cheery but a hollow dead husk inside, yet ultimately bore no resemblance to an actual real person who you could imagine meeting in our reality as it exists...

Look, all I'm saying that if I was the casting director for a Black Mirror episode that required an ersatz influencer as a secondary character who accidentally achieves fame and then gets horrifyingly but hilariously manipulated into ending the world via corporate puppeteers...

@thomasfuchs
I especially love how I can read this statement and have absolutely no idea which country you're referring to.Was going to restrict it to "majority English speaking" then reconsidered when I remembered a few more utter catastrofucks out there.

It's always "you need to build up a tolerance to crop failures" and never "billionaires should build up a tolerance to not having yachts".

A tachyon asks for a drink.
A proton walks into a bar and orders a drink. The barman asks "are you sure?"
The proton replies "Yes, I'm positive".
A neutron walks into a bar. The barman pulls a pint and the neutron asks how much.
The barman replies, "for you, sir, no charge."
Later, a neutrino walks through the bar.
A tachyon walks into a bar.

Let's push this joke format to the nerd limit.
Three logicians walk into a bar.
The barman asks "Would you all like a drink?"
The first logician says "I don't know".
The second logician says "I don't know, either."
The third says "Yes. Yes we would."
