28.3168 liters of piss, addressed to Margret Thatcher.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I’ve heard people say the opposite, β€œwouldn’t piss on her if she was on fire”.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is my piss not supposed to be flammable?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

You should use a condom next time

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

On fire is a good start

On fire and soaked in piss is better

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well, hell is supposed to be forever. Eventually the liquid piss would evaporate, leaving behind solid compounds that, in my experience, would still smell quite bad. And then, she'd burst into flames again. Sounds like a win-win.

I was witness to what burnt piss does on a hot muffler.

It stinks, for miles. And months.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Actually both have the same meaning. Pissing on her while she's on fire would be to save her by soaking. And it's the least you can do (easier than getting water). This saying means that they wouldn't save Margaret Thatcher even if it was trivially easy to do so.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Are you explaining my own joke to me? Why?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah sorry. Since you mentioned it's the opposite, I wrongly assumed that you didn't know the meaning.

American measurement systems

Think of the money saved alone.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago

A cubesat with a full array of sensors because hell needs to be studied.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago (2 children)

how much is that in real units?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

A foot is like 30cm. So it's roughly 27000 cm^3 or 27 liters.

finally a serious answer

[–] idontknowman 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

glitter. nothing is as bad as glitter, it gets everywhere and is hard to clean

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's coarse and irritating and it gets everywhere

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

And even the women and the children...

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

A care package for myself for when I get there.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I haven't yet decided between:

  • A self-addressed, postage prepaid box about 11.75" on a side. (Who knows what I'd get!)
  • One of these but with holy water, incense, and gregorian chants instead of glitter, stink spray, and countdown timers.
  • A copy of the Assassin's Creed movie with a note attached: "here, you can have this back."

u sure that would fit? real boxes have thickness

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well then are you dimensions the inner or outer volume?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

They didn't specify box-sizing, so it will default to inner.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

how can boxes be real if hell's not real

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

ignore the fact that hell's not real just like religious people do, we're all trying to have a good time

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Potatoes, wrapped in aluminum foil. Maybe some other veggies too.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Add some broth, baby you got a stew going!

a black hole

A bunch of battery powered fans and batteries

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's going to hell, so I would put in dead batteries.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

i'd mix in some living ones too in a 10:1 ratio (of which order will be randomly decided)

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Ice water because Mallory Archer told me that's what people there want

A snow cone machine. I might be mean.

One essential organ of as many influential fascists as will fit. I'm thinking brain stem. That's smaller than a heart or spine

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Just the middle 2 cm of the aorta will do.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Pius Religious people.

Doesn't make sense otherwise.
