i love that world war 2 is called world war 2
it sounds like the sequel to an action movie
“WORLD WAR 2….
GERMANY’S BACK, AND THIS TIME….

the Cold War is basically just the United State and the Soviet Union saying how big of a penis they have but when it comes down to it neither of them actually want to flash the other to show for fear the other actually does have a bigger penis
Holy shit, that’s spot on
I don’t post faulty penis analogies so of course it is

The Origins of America's Two-Party System, Or So...
Washington: All right, we have this new nation, we're going to show the world we can do this the right way. Just no factions, we clear?
Jefferson: I'm not really feeling this administration. Bad mojo.
Hamilton: Who invited you?
Jefferson: Too much. Too much monarchy.
Adams: I don't think that means what you think it means.
Jefferson: I think I know something about republicanism. I supported republicanism before we dumped the tea.
Adams: Jump on that bandwagon harder, Virginia wishes it were as republican as Massachusetts.
Jefferson: We're so republican we'll just call ourselves Republicans.
Hamilton: You wish it were that easy.
Adams: What, like your mother?
Jefferson: I'm outta this Cabinet. Fans of real republicanism, follow me.
Hamilton: Fine, no one wanted you, anyways. We'll make our own club.
Washington: I'm sorry, did I fucking stutter?
