Sunday Funday: Laughing at Trump wanting a Nobel Peace Prize, a beaver shows us how to cut down a tree; other jokes and funny posts, and Animal Crackers

Nobel Peace Prize? For Trump? Oh my:


 Donald Trump wanting a Nobel Peace Prize is like Jeffrey Dahmer wanting a Vegetarian of the Year award.

Timber!
The wrong way to do it: The right way to do it: One day the next door neighbours were taking out three dying Lombardy poplars so I watched out of our upstairs window. The trimmer knew exactly where to cut the trunks so they fell precisely between our neighbour's house and our fence, which only had a gap of about 3 feet. Very impressive

Ha Ha!

To be fair to Trump on the Nobel Peace Prize, it's been a joke since it prompted Tom Lehrer to retire--he noted that since they gave the Peace Prize to Henry Kissinger, political satire couldn't really top that. He hadn't seen nuthin' yet.

And, again, they gave the Peace Prize to Obama when he had just become president and hadn't had a chance to do anything yet, good or bad, in pious hope that maybe he would merit it. And . . . he destroyed Libya, went from being the most prosperous place in Africa to a hellhole full of civil war, torture, and literal slave markets. And he busily had the CIA and army train Al Qaeda guys to help destroy Syria and sent US troops into Syria to grab the territory with oil in it, who have never left. And he presided over weekly "pick who gets droned" meetings for years; all those destroyed weddings and stuff were his personal decisions. So, not amazingly peaceful in my opinion.

Technically, Trump hasn't yet actually done anything as anti-peace as some of Obama's stuff.

Well, true. But it's funny because he wants it so much, like a 5 year old who wants an ice cream cone...
