The Brits had an anthem ready for when Margaret Thatcher died. Americans should also be prepared.

      I imagine the grounds staff will put gravel over that grave. No way grass will ever survive that amount of urine.

      You will get arrested for public nudity. Package it up beforehand and spread/drop it.

      I will be bottling urine myself so I can piss on his grave. We may bump into each other.

        I don’t want to make your noble task more unpleasant… But have you considered concentrating it down a bit? Less hassle, more pee scent!

    I worked for a manufacturer on the engineering side for a while, and we had this absolute manipulator cunt in HR, basically throwing the CEO’s name around like it was a pass to commit murder.

    Once the CEO found out some of the shit she pulled, he dropped the ban hammer immediately. It was such a relief to us all, we were literally skipping and hopping in the hallways shouting “ding dong! the witch is dead!” It was a great moment until we realized a few months later half of the shit she did actually came from him and nothing really changed.

    That last point may or may not be relevant to current times.

      Is the ban hammer a firing, or was she just kicked from the company servers?

      Yeah that’s the worst he was not mad at the actions he was made she was throwing his name around. She was ment to be plausible deniability.

    We should commission something good.

    I don’t think any existing song is good enough nor should it be dragged down by the association.

    Ween - You Fucked Up

    Lyrics:

    You fucked up, you bitch
    You really fucked up
    You fucked up
    You fucking Nazi whore

    Well, you dicked me over
    But now you’ll pay
    You fucked up
    Aaaahhh!

    You fucked up, you bitch
    You really fucked up
    You fucked up
    You [slimy] little shit bitch fuck

    Well, you dicked me over
    But now you’ll pay
    You fucked up
    Aaaahhh!
    Well, you dicked me over
    But now you’ll pay
    You fucked up
    Aaaahhh!

    I’m pretty sure when he keels over it’ll A. be his fault and B. lead to an avalanche of conspiracy theories probably inspiring terrorist attacks. It will not be a day of rejoicing for me.

    It’s a real shame they stuck this song on the end of a long video. The video is neat but the music video at the end is an absolute banger. Skip to 22:30 if the timestamped link doesn’t work.

    I’m not saying “ding dong the witch is dead” wasn’t a perfect capture of the sentiment, but it’s also really hard to improve on “Lizzie’s in a box” for the sheer ability to send the most insufferable people on the planet into a frothing rage.

      How about “Witch, watch, the ding dong’s dead” instead?

    We can adapt one of theirs, how about “Tamp the dirt down” by Elvis Costello?

You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !showerthoughts@lemmy.world

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
