I recognized all the words in Trinopus’s post, but still can’t tease out a meaning from “King hell of the whooshes.” Especially since the joke was a rather lame on, and not a big whoosh. Is there a typo in there? And extra word?
I ignored the fact that there was an attempt at a joke and made a simple correction that took less than 30 seconds. If you want to call that idiotic, knock yourself out. :rolleyes:
So, you mean half the population if he became president, amirite, guys?

Han Solo said it. Or am I missing the actual “Joke?”
I think we both are. Because it wasn’t very funny. I googled “Kessel run” when I saw it, and saw that it was a Star Wars reference. I didn’t see it as being funny or insulting, or some kind of whoosh, so I just ignored the attempt at humor and made the simple correction.
Knock, knock.
(This is where you say, “who’s there”. Then I reply, “shut the fuck up”. You then retort that that’s not the way the joke typically goes, providing cites from JokeTheory101.com. Then someone else replies, “Just shut the fuck up”. You then start another thread asking what just happened.)
I’m just skimming and am afraid I’ve lost the thread of the thread.
Is the claim that Don Trump is like Han So-Low (their names have the same number of letters) and is going to save us from the Evil Libtard Empire?
Anyway, he’s got my vote. 
ETA:
BTW, did you know the word Gullible is not in the dictionary?
So you don’t support him?
As usual, you only get half the story. Read the Playboy interview where Trump didn’t deny making the statement. You have something in common with Trump other than the first letter of your name.
Would I vote for Donald Trump for President of the United States?
I wouldn’t usually describe him as an asshole. I might say:
It’s best not to confuse Trump with the garden variety, common asshole.
Don’t overstate the effect as applying regardless of who the Republican nominee is. Sanders, for my politics, would likely be the worst candidate the Democrats gave the nomination to since I started voting. He even spends time dangling his legs in the same angry populism pool Trump inhabits. Trump just did the full on belly flop in the deep end and doesn’t seem to want to ever get out. Watching the Trump fiasco, assuming he doesn’t get the nomination, isn’t enough to not make a rational choice based on who’s actually on the general election ballot. Trump bad != GOP bad or DNC good. If we do nominate the Hilter-wannabe, genital wart of a candidate named Trump though…
I’m feeling the Bern.
In “Star Wars,” when Ben and Luke are trying to get to Alderaan, they meet with Han Solo. They ask if his ship is fast. He says, “it’s the ship that made the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs.”
So, George Lucas got the wrong word/meaning.
But it’s been kinda fan-wanked into a “Solo said that on purpose, to see if they caught that. Since they didn’t, they’re kinda rubes, and so he could overcharge them for the trip” kinda thing.
That isn’t what your cite says; why would you mischaracterize something like that?
Trump might not have said it, but then again he might have. Either way, what you wrote was completely inaccurate.
Even I think/believe you’re a troll and I’m a mod…so, what now?
Either you’re literally delusional in how many posters on here you THINK think of you as a troll or you’re just lying to yourself/acting like it isn’t really the case.
ETA: Okay, maybe “troll” is too harsh of a term. There’s a chance you may not be, I fully admit. You could just be a huge, ignorant, racist asshat. But you’re one of those two things, definitely.
The Tour de France of whooshes?
The Tour de Sicily?
The Tour de Menorca?
Would you believe the Tour de Bledsoe Island?
Which of those also has a logo that looks like a facepalm?
Oops. Did I whoosh?
(“Groo the Wanderer” voice. “Did I err?”)
I was in Canada this week and told them that while no American will admit to wanting to vote for Trump, he is saying what most of us secretly agree with. 
Trump handles debate question, as imagined by Don Imus:
Moderator: *“Who’s the president of Zimbabwe, Mr. Trump?”
Trump: “‘Who gives a ----?’”*
Thunderous applause.
Hahahaha!! Probably so. Give 'em hell, Donald!
