Seems fair.
I don't know, banning Trump from real estate for just a year or two doesn't seem like much.
It's lifetime. I mean, it's right there in the title. You didn't even have to read the article.
Pretty sure that's the joke...
Oh. I thought jokes were supposed to be funny.
They are if you get them.
I laughed. :D
The joke is that he's over 80 and visibly unhealthy
Unhealthy?? He has a VIBRANT orange glow.
Punish his kids.
Definitely, but not just because they're his kids. But because they are also criminals.
Definitely.
But not just because they're criminals.
No. Punishing people for being related to someone you don't like is some Republican banana republic bullshit.
Besides, there's plenty of crimes of theirs left to prosecute.
They did.
I'm guessing you are being sarcastic, or joking that lifetime for Trump is just a year or two. But it's impossible to tell for sure, If it's sarcasm, I'd recommend adding a /s so it clear.
My upvote ratio suggests my gamble paid off this time.
No, no! Do not bring that reddit bs /s.
Fuck anyone that doesn't grasp sarcasm.
Omg you’re still going on about this! Dude, let it go. You are the only person I ever see complain about the use of /s.
Poe's law is a real thing though. And /s is much older than Reddit.
Maybe we could use the percontation mark instead⸮
No. People should use their minds for a few moments to figure it out. I don't care that many can't manage.
