Nobody gets to the crux of a topic like Philomena Cunk. I wish all journalists were more like her.

University of South Carolina and Ulysses S. Cunt?

[–] GreatGrapeApe@reddthat.com 5 points 1 year ago

The University of Southern California which is the better of the two USC's

Ulysses S. Cunt

There's no period after the S, it was just S. Unless I'm thinking of Harry S Trucunt ...

Many don't realize that the development of USB in 1996 would not have been possible without the 1989 Belgian techno anthem "Pump Up The Jam".

I'm not sure what drew me to watch Crunk on Earth as it looked like something I really wouldn't enjoy.

I've never been so happy to be so egregiously incorrect.

Crunk is the best!

Wrong Lever, Cunk!

What a square, this is what happens when you don't take a single minute out of your day to listen to unrelated Belgian techno anthem "Pump Up the Jam".

...pum pum pum

Yeah and if this joke makes you partially smile imagine a full season of “the joke is that she’s stupid”

Here I thought this was an IT crowd reference.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one! Gives me massive Jen vibes.

If you haven't seen Philomena Cunk you're missing out on a phenomenally good comedy series

Doh now I got it 🤦‍♀️ I was thinking, okay the Universal Serial Bus probably have some issues, but it's not that bad that you need to dunk on a whole country.

[–] TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Watch some Philomena Cunk and you'll get it. She's hilarious.
