Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

The fact that this monster lived a full century without facing any justice for the mass graves filled with his victims makes me ill, but I am glad to hear that he's finally gone.

There's a mythical story (Greek or Roman) where a goddess managed to get her human lover an eternal life, but forgot to ask for eternal youth. This oversight led to the horror where he watched his beautiful young lover from afar while he lost all grace, prominence and influence while withering away into an eternal life of suffering.

Honestly, that is what this old goat deserved. Not the peaceful death that he got.

Henry Kissinger How I'm missing yer You're the Doctor of my dreams

With your crinkly hair and your glassy stare And your machiavellian schemes I know they say that you are very vain And short and fat and pushy but at least you're not insane

Henry Kissinger How I'm missing yer And wishing you were here

Henry Kissinger How I'm missing yer You're so chubby and so neat

With your funny clothes and your squishy nose You're like a German parakeet All right so people say that you don't care But you've got nicer legs than Hitler And bigger tits than Cher

Henry Kissinger How I'm missing yer And wishing you were here

Or justice for the powerful.

This is why I can't celebrate his death, it didn't come from a hanging.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Nov 29 (Reuters) - Former United States Secretary of State Henry Kissinger died on Wednesday at his home in Connecticut at the age of 100, Kissinger Associates, Inc said in a statement.

I heard Henry Kissinger ran into a tree and all his money fell out of his pockets and the teens called him Sonic the Bitchhog while he tried to get at least one coin so he could go on. But alas, it wasn’t meant to be.
