Instead of the TV-B-Gone, there should be a TV-1-Channel-Up device that just changes the channel. If the TV in the doctor's office turns off, it will get noticed by the reception desk and probably be turned back on in a few minutes. If the TV is on a different channel, the desk is much less likely to notice any time soon (at least not before you've been called back into the exam room).

It's Jhonen's. From 'Johnny the Homicidal Maniac'. This bit pops into my head at least a few times a year, and has since about 2002 or so when I first read it.

Mark is the generally-recognized first Gospel to be written, from which Matthew and Luke get some of their material

Hang on to that $22.76 USD for a little while and you'll be surprised how much stock it will buy!

That son's name is 'Gabriel', in case anyone is curious. I don't know any of the people involved, I can just tell because the name is insufficiently blacked out.

Not sure why the name was even blacked out, though. All we can tell from the picture is that someone has a husband and a son and a real hardon for the Bible. The son's name is Gabriel and was born in 2022 or earlier, probably in America. That's not enough information to even remotely be able to identify someone.

There are a couple fundamental differences between the US and North Korea - in NK, you can't travel without governmental approval and also you get shot if you try to leave.

In the US, you can walk to a different state if you so desire (or drive or fly, but those require gov't ID) and the only thing you need to have if you want to leave the country is paperwork that the other country accepts.

I wouldn't be surprised if there were more fundamental differences between the two countries, but those are two big ones that I thought of off the top of my head.

Listen, if you have to jump through hoops to stretch the meaning of a phrase, just to raise the idea that the phrase might not be completely asinine, it might be a better use of your time to just let it be. You shouldn't have to do mental gymnastics and word judo just to squeeze a non-obvious semi-literate meaning out of something the leader of the free world said. Don't do their work for them (unless you are being paid to do their work for them, of course... but get paid up front, because they aren't very good about honoring contracts).

Why are people responding to your post like it's serious? It couldn't be more obvious satire if it had a blinking neon sign that said 'THIS IS SATIRE' next to it. Sometimes satire needs the '/s', but not when it is super obvious like this.

I didn't even notice until your comment. That's such a weird image to have an AI make; how hard is it to google 'billboard in a city or whatever' and run with the first result?
