    Let's be frank: You have quite a lot of batshit insane people who get airtime for some reason or are even voted into important positions, with rhetoric which would have made Goebbels proud.

    Not to mention that one of the requirements for satire is wit. What she's spouting? Not witty, just inane, stupid and racist.

    Amusing that the World Cup is composed of two sets of 4 countries that more or less neighbor each other. They don't quite represent the entire globe either.

    Well, seems like Brazil's chances were just significantly reduced. Funny thing is that I happened to be chatting with a Brazilian during the match, around 10 minutes before Neymar got injured I asked if it wasn't a too big risk to keep him on the pitch considering his poor condition.
    Congratulations America

    It's funny because it makes liberals mad since they think she is 100% serious. The delightful part is there is a fuzzy line - a lot of what she says is serious but its wrapped in a bundle of hilarity.

    Is that hilarity in the Hillbilly style of "Hyuck, hyuck, look ma! I did a funny!"?

    Fuck, I hate penalty shootouts. But we got through

    Yup, he was good Pretty frustrating

    And a goalie substitute in the 120th minute, that's pretty unusual, but worked out well. Stopped two, and in the right corner 5/5.

    What's hilarious is that people can watch a team in the match that basically parked the team bus in front of the Goal, then didn't bother to come out of it for 120 minutes in an attempt to reach a shoot out, THEN accuse the Dutch keeper of lack of sportsmanship.
    Congratulations America

    Oh, the intimidation? I thought that was part of the game pretty standard too isn't it?

    And if we're going to judge on bad sportsmanship, ruiz deserves special mention.

    Seems as if it's going to be a massacre

    3 goals in 3 minutes? Seriously?

    Absolutely no defence. No structure. No confidence now.

    Who pushed the self-destruct?

    ZE CHERMANS!!!11

    seriously, I was round at mother's fixing her TV-Internet, I turned off the TV after they score the first goal to test blahblahblah, and then I turned it back on again and it was four nil. ZE CHERMANS scored 3 goals in the time it took me to not fix my mum's internet, then a 5th as a I was running a network test. I feel quite humbled by German efficiency.

    I predict tomorrow being a good day for memes.
    The light that once I thought compassion still casting shadows in your action
    The words you shared were cold transactions that bring me to curse what you've done
    When you're up there absorbed in greatness with such success you've grown complacent
    I hope you scorch your many faces when you fly too close to the sun
