This is not the full story! There was a seventh journalist who "got the shot" and made the whole event look very appealing and hella sexy. These other six should be excecuted for their failures...ok, end scene..everything I have said here is an uninformed lie.

I likely never would have known that Salva Kiir, the President of South Sudan, wet himself in public if only Salva Kiir hadn't arrested journalists afterward

As an aside, it's so silly seeing world leaders in cowboy hats.
It's such an American cultural thing that it's really hard to take them seriously. I'd be way more interested in why they decided to wear that hat than anything they have to say about peeing themselves.

when you were in school did you never learn the difference between 'then' and 'than'?

Would you be surprised to learn that it was a gift from George W. Bush? Because I think it just makes it funnier

How were you at talking to other people? Was that a subject you were strong in?

lol what? That has nothing to do with the question I asked.
Did you go to one of those tragically underfunded schools in Alabama or Tennessee?

Are you sure about that?

You could have simply pointed out the typo instead of insulting the person by suggesting they never learnt the difference.
There's a vast difference between making a typo and not understand the difference between 2 words and you instantly jump to insulting them instead of simply taking it as a typo and being polite about it
wicklowdave t1_j8b32m6 wrote
Pretty certain.
Whatever the case, 'then' refers to a point in time. 'Than' is used to compare things. It's pretty fundamental knowledge in English.
I'm sorry your teachers failed you.

It wasn't a typo.

You are a bully. You were looking for some way to harass someone and if it hadn't been me it would have been someone else. Now you have my eyes on you and awareness that you exist.

lol.
> looking for some way to harass someone
No, it's more that I get triggered by ostensibly smart comments betraying themselves by their failures in grammar and still expecting to be taken seriously.
But moving on - I've shared some knowledge that hopefully you'll take on board. My work is done here.

No, you're in this now. Because my accidental misspelling of a word where we both understood the context and meaning triggered you to the point of EVERYONE NEEDS TO KNOW THAT A PERSON MISSPLEED A WQORD1!

it wasn't an accident though. It couldn't have been.

Please elaborate on that thought.

No, you don't call the shots in this one. I told you a while ago my work was done. You're not interesting enough to bother any more time with.

So sad what happened to Frankenmuppet. Shot himself in the head while falling off the roof of his apartment building while overdosing on sleeping pills. rest in peace guy.

I have no idea who you are. I am a very inclusive person and if you want to talk about shit that's going on with you I'm tote's down. I would certainly appreciate not spreading completely nonsensical bullshit about me, but if you need to do that to feel good about yourself then you do you!

Do me a favor. Is this the nation that Manute Bol spent all his money to build?
Who are the baddies here? Is this a religious conflict that created a humanitarian crisis, or more?

I think this photo and the video where he wet himself are from different events. Also wearing of hats is still common in Africa (maybe indoors is bad form though). This is a repost by the way.

I'm super interested in your thought process on posting this comment. Like he wet himself but didn't have a hat on? The dictator to hat/urine economy is a bit of a mystery to us in the western world.

In Russia people accidentally fall out of windows after shooting themselves in the head twice with a rifle and then make sure to lock the window from the inside after they jump.

Yeah, I find it really hard to keep track of this stuff. Here's a protip I've been using for a couple years now.
The baddies are the ones arresting journalists for reporting things that happened.

Safe bet for pee pants. Is pee pants a cover story to smear the right side? Should we all be mocking a pissed pants new dictator?
Did I misread a huge figure struggle to free his people to get to this? Is this all propaganda?
I'm betting this is a huge religious and tribal war I have no business commenting on and has limited coverage because of reasons
count023 t1_j8cjzyg wrote
ah, so thats who his name is. And he wet himself you say? and he's the president of South Sudan no less. I must watch this video for no other reason than it appears to be important enough to be denied viewing by the subject.

Reason 1) The president arrests journalists.
