    “Epic Fury” has gotta be the absolute stoopidest nickname for a military operation, ever.

    Like-- tell me you’ve never had a thing to do with the military, while also confessing that most of your life’s experience is via videogames and hostile, simpleton interpretations of the Bible.

    Idiot.

      I once read that in WW2 the people charged with picking the names for military operations were specifically ordered not to include any names that might sound silly or offensive. No Operation Ice Cream Cone or Operation Hula Dancer.

      Need I say more?

        Operation Hula Dancer

        Hahaha, that sounds kinda nice…

        Like, instead of bombing, let’s instead overwhelm them by infectuous Hawaiian dancing, singing, delicious grilled seafood, etc.

        I WOULD HAVE JOINED, in that case. :D
