Or the Word of the Day is ‘Yemen’

Used in a sentence; ‘Are you going to respond by bombing those Houthi rebels’? ‘ **Yemen** ’

My dad thought it was funny, but even Myanmar wouldn’t laugh at that joke.

(Really reaching for that one)

Nice! I tried to make a pun out of Myanmar, but I couldn’t come up with anything and gave up. Just wasn’t Ghana happen.

There’s a Family Guy bit where Jesus is watching God name all the nations on the planet, and at one point he says “Look at all these mountains. They look like nipples. I’ll call this country nipple”

Jesus: Dad, you can’t call a country “nipple.”

God: OK, Nepal

Here’s some legit schadenfreude… Elon shares a Xitter post calling for Trump’s impeachment.

Snopes confirms.

> **[Yes, Musk shared post calling for Trump's impeachment](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/musk-trump-feud-impeachment/)**
>
> A post from conservative influencer Ian Miles Cheong defended the tech billionaire during an internet feud with the U.S. president.

Not a shocker, but it still seems like an escalation.

I was trying to think of a Burma pun, too, but couldn’t come up with anything workable. The closest I could get was some reference to shaving.

“What’s the special today?”

“Burma Tongue.”

“Ooh… Sounds exotic. What’s in it?”

“Nothing that weird. They’re just pizza rolls. The key is to eat them as soon as they come out of the oven.”

We have to use plastic razors in my family. No metal blades around. My niece is a Qatar.

That was actually something in a Scholastic Press book I had in elementary school. Mama monster and child monster talking.

**Child Monster:** I’m Hungary!  
**Mama Monster:** Stop your Wales. I’ll Fiji.  
**Child Monster:** I want a slice of Turkey fried in Greece.

That’s all I can remember.
