Holy fucking shit lmao, thank you for dusting off this old af meme and putting a smile on my face!
and yep mandate of heaven officially lost, impeachment approaching at mach fuck https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/south-korean-lawmakers-call-impeach-president-yoon-after-martial-law-rescinded-2024-12-04/
That’s 100% Korean though. They could be in the streets throwing molotovs and that’s what they’d tell a foreigner.
Nice, recruit that nerd to NCD
Hey, could you toss me some context for the link before I click? Thanks.
You asked for a contribution. It’s the best of Bob Marley and the Wailers. Look for meaning in it and have a beautiful day
Got it, preciate the reply. Same back to you.
Yup. My SO has friends in S. Korea, and they were more annoyed at the emergency broadcast than anything, but kept on gaming. Ain’t nobody got time to care about a coup attempt…
was there a coup attempt?
see, first person in korean timezone woke up. now they’re gonna think it was all gigantic prank everyone around them is playing into
nah I’m American, I just hadn’t heard of it yet
fire up reuters or ap, it’s first page news
Or don’t, it’s not very interesting news.
worst coup in half a year is not interesting news? heresy
Yup, even my Korean friends didn’t care enough to watch the broadcast live. They just turned off the TV and went back to gaming.
It was such a bad coup that the only casualty was a fire extinguisher. For a country with such spicy food, it’s coups are incredibly bland.
You’re better than this Korea, at least mobilize a couple tanks next time!
You’re hurting Yoon’s feelings, don’t you know we’re his only Yoons? He needs our love, not more shame. He knows what his wife made him do.
Then he should share with the rest of the class. As penance, I’ll accept an album of embarrassing sex pictures. Probably also not very interesting, but I’ll give him a shot at redemption.
That’s quite fair.
I was messaging a friend living north of Seoul with questions about it when I realized, it’s 12:00 a.m. there and he is farging sleeping. This must be close to a nothingburger.
i thought you’re in similar timezone
also, how far north of Seoul
I am in flyover country in America, friend’s timezone was 12 am at the time of my realization that the coup had flopped. He lives roughly 2 hours north of Seoul. I don’t think he’s a Nork hacker, he will happily repeat, “Kim Jong Un is an idiot”.
Yeah but more like chicken coup
From now on when I try to do something stupid and fail spectacularly, I’ll think “At least I’m not President Yoon.”
“At least I’m not a Yoon.” -fixed it, sorry. Can’t stop myself, I love neologisms.
Too bad that situations where someone fails miserably but that’s a good thing because what he was trying to do is terrible don’t come up often enough for this phrase to catch on.
Oh, doesn’t it though? I can think of a few off the cuff …Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, what a Yoon.
Nobody:
Still nobody:
Somebody: …
Everybody: ?
There are decades when nothing happens and there are weeks when decades happen.
I legit want to hear what is was like waking up after sleeping through a decade’s worth of history happening.
don’t forget the thousands of brave protesters. if it wasn’t for them, those MPs would probably have been blocked effectively
Wait, there’s bad guys?
According to my SO, martial law was a success! Nearly everyone stayed indoors, either sleeping or gaming, and didn’t leave until martial law was rescinded in the morning. Yoon got to push the martial law button, and nobody ended up getting killed.
So success all around! Let’s celebrate over another round of LOL.
