Once you're down to 1, just reduce the allowed size of the wheel. If you're capable of breaking the highway code significantly on a 1" diameter unicycle, I'd be more impressed than annoyed.
Word of warning: including the parameter at the end (?is=...) identifies your YouTube account and pops up a "Shared by 4am" thing when opened in YouTube. You might not care, just letting you know.

It's a reference to Vermin Supreme who made a satirical bid for US president in multiple elections.
One of his main promises was to give every american a pony, and when asked about it he said something to the effect of "It won't require that many ponies, because I'll just kill most americans first"
I agree though that he's closer to a Farage, especially since he called himself a self-proclaimed fascist. His satire was in being such a bad candidate that it highlighted the general buffoonery of US elections.
So yeah, Binface is different because while he's still satirical, his satire is more in line with things people would generally want but taking them to an absurd degree. So I guess Vermin Supreme wasn't really that comparable...
Nah, I didn't take it personally. Times are tense and I wouldn't hesitate to be harsh with someone I thought was a supporter of Farage or any other fascist politician or party

He started writing a joke manifesto and got more serious the further he went.

Punishing public speakerphone users and getting trains that work? He’d win in Germany.

Though Germans do have some questionable taste in their candidates.

Half the country has forgotten how bad it was living in the GDR. The rest are just racists, like apparently most of the rest of the world.

No no, he said at least, so you never know, he might even build two! It’s all the fun of gambling!

What about that hand dryer? Did he drop his most important point? Bloody sell-out!
OhNoMoreLemmy@lemmy.ml · 30 pts · 35d
He actually signed a treaty with the pub agreeing to move it if he gets elected.
Not in office yet, and he's already done more than Farage.

More reasonable and less damaging than Farage's politics of abject hate and corruption.

Surely better to make it so that each time you are caught breaking the highway code, the number of wheels you are allowed to have reduces by 1.

There are apps that force you to use speakerphone? O.O
impairedimperator@lemmy.zip · -4 pts · 34d
indirectly, yes. Whatsapp, for example. You either use speakerphone or you have separate headphones. You can't just use it like a normal phone.

It was like browsing a plain text internet through a television. Data was quite literally received through the same antenna as the TV programmes.

My reply was meant as a semi satirical one. Rereading it, it might have been harsher than intended. 👍

He was referencing the platform of Vermin Supreme, who's a similar figure in the US.
