Oh, I’m gonna have to disagree there.
pbjamm ( @pbjamm@beehaw.org ) 33•1 year ago“I don’t think it was particularly funny, I think it’s puerile,” Truss told Irish broadcaster RTÉ
It can be both.
zurohki ( @zurohki@lemmy.fmhy.ml ) 4•1 year agoThe world’s oldest recorded joke, from 1900 BC, was a fart joke.
It’s been 4000 years, it’s probably time to just admit that we as a species are never going to mature past this.
Banzai51 ( @Banzai51@midwest.social ) 29•1 year agoLettuce everywhere were offended.
reverendsteveii ( @reverendsteveii@beehaw.org ) 29•1 year agojust one more thing she’s wrong about
Square Singer ( @squaresinger@feddit.de ) 28•1 year agoHer mini budget wasn’t funny either, so I guess it balances out.
Strolleypoley ( @Strolleypoley@kbin.social ) 27•1 year agoLettuce agree to disagree, don’t be a prune about it!
reverendsteveii ( @reverendsteveii@beehaw.org ) 13•1 year ago“Don’t blame me, I voted ‘romaine’”
dave ( @dave@feddit.uk ) English1•1 year agoYeah, Cos everyone says that.
Warped ( @Warped@kbin.social ) 25•1 year agoHumour is subjective. Her awful performance and insane budget were not subjective.
jbaert ( @jbaert@kbin.social ) 22•1 year agoFunniest thing she did
arandomthought ( @arandomthought@vlemmy.net ) 21•1 year agoOkay… it was, though.
GraceGH ( @GraceGH@beehaw.org ) 20•1 year agoNot only was it funny, now it’s even funnier.
jinarched ( @jinarched@lemm.ee ) 20•1 year agoI don’t agree, it was hilarious.
Floppy ( @Floppy@beehaw.org ) 18•1 year agoIn the long list of “thing Liz Truss is wrong about”, this is one of the biggest.
parallax ( @parallax@local106.com ) 17•1 year agoShe made it 4.1 Scaramuccis so we should cut her some slack…
magnetosphere ( @HappyMeatbag@beehaw.org ) 17•1 year ago“I think the level of understanding of economic ideas in the media and the ability to explain them is very poor indeed,” she added.
That can be true, but no amount of honest “explaining” would help objectively bad economic policy seem better. I think she was looking for the word “spin”.
david ( @david@feddit.uk ) 5•1 year ago- “Let’s go full on right wing, don’t hold back, it’ll be great for the economy!”
- Economy crashes hard, fast.
- “Stupid media didn’t understand how great our policy was for the long term,” (for the uber rich, in the short term) “and never gave us the chance to see it work” (transfer more, for longer, from poor to rich).
- Millions and millions of people have their costs spiral even more out of control and have even more desperate hardship than they already had
- “It’s so desperately unfair, they’re so mean to me for making me feel bad.”
0x815 ( @0x815@feddit.de ) 13•1 year agoMany Britons say that they can’t afford lettuce is not funny. And it’s not ‘puerile.’
