I'm gonna miss you Rick!

"It's not just because to Americans, you always sound so darn smart and refined no matter what you're saying," he said. "And it's not just because of your many cultural exports from James Bond to Julie Andrews to Simon Cowell to One Direction

Nah, he had his people pop over to the gift shop at The Alamo and get some stuff for the queen.

Why was the last sentence of the quote left off? It was a "tongue in cheek" comment that ended with a serious statement.

"So many good things in the world began in Britain, and so many good things in the world to this day depend on Britain."

Why does the world today have such a problem with context? It is rare that only one or two sentences are ever intended to be taken literally without consideration of how, or even in what setting they were used.

Because people are constantly trying to manipulate information to fit a narrative. The media does it, why shouldn't they? And the majority of people are too lazy to actually click the link to read the article, especially if the message fits their narrative.

An interesting social experiment on this board would be to start a thread saying "Unemployment Rates hit Record Low after September Statistics Are Updated" with a bunch of BOLS Graphs and link a website showing midgets fricking geese and see how many pages it goes before someone actually notices that the link is midgets fricking geese.

It was hard to make out with the Queen's balls in his mouth.
