      He's never had much of a sense of humour, for sure.

      Hang on, I wonder if He's German. That would fucking explain everything!

      I was only joking

        Hmmm, since God steals so many Irish jokes--he must be English.

                Yeah, you’re trying to like tell me The Big Kahuna uses like American spelling. He probably says ‘like’ in the middle of sentences like too.

                  The Big Kahuna was basically a glorified bum from Malibu.

                  And the like stuff is from California, which both they and the rest of the country would largely agree isn't part of the country in any real sense.

                    Is it too obvious to remind folks that Paris is known as “the city of lights”?

                    Probably

                      More accurately “the city of nuclear-powered lights.”
                      By now there should be another city somewhere (most likely in China) that has more lights than Paris, but Paris should still be the one most electrified by nuclear power.

                        Paris isn't called The City of Lights because of their number of lights, or because of nuclear power.

                                So I take it that the alleged power outage and ensuing social media frenzy both amounted to little or nothing.

                                      I have no doubt it that it was cathartic to
                                      play with the main power breaker in the middle of the night.

                                      Just another mystery of theodicy.

                                        Once is an accident (the high-speed train outage).

                                        Twice is a coincidence (the lights go out)

                                        Three times....

                                          I know we have discussed this before, and I think that most on this forum board are in agreement, but protests like these just make me hate the cause they are representing.

                                          Don't know why they think it would turn me on to their side. 🤷
