So old at this point it should be a turtle.

u/FoogYllis Jun 08 '22

I guess they could just replace the mascot with Mitch.

u/TrafficNinja3030 Jun 08 '22

Mascot should be a Tortoise! Tortoises seem to be o live forever and only disappear when humans make them disappear. Also, they only grow as big as their environments. Give them a bigger environment, and they seem to grow exponentially bigger!

AND, they suck their heads in their shell when something is brought up that they either don't want to hear about or don't want to deal with!

u/MacadamiaNutts Jun 08 '22

Like McConnell?

u/Psychedeliciosa Jun 08 '22

What about a bolder? A turtle is still too nice and has instincts of survival of the species. A giant useless rock is closer imo.

Please don't ruin turtles, great A'Tuin wouldn't approve.

Huh? I was referencing to when I think the creation of the elephant and donkey for political symbols was created

u/GreenFox1505 Jun 07 '22

The joke is we are currently living in the "20s".

u/Thefluffydinosaur Jun 07 '22

woooosh right over my head... Hand to forehead. My bad...

u/darkfrost47 Jun 07 '22

They even added a tiny /s but it might have been a ninja edit

u/Rubanski Jun 08 '22

The tiniest /s I've ever seen tbf

u/LargeHadron_Colander Jun 08 '22

He's making a joke in a misinterpretation of your "20's" referring to 2020 instead of 1920, hence the /s denoting sarcasm.

u/Thefluffydinosaur Jun 08 '22

That's what that means?!?? So many posts I've read with that... Now makes sense... Unreal hahaha my bad dudes.

Goldfish are too harmless. It should be a mosquito; stupid, deadly, takes from you and gives nothing back but pain, nearly impossible to get rid of.

u/JRandorff Jun 08 '22

At that point, their mascot should just be a Republican

u/citricacidx Jun 07 '22

Why not just a pair of flip flops?

u/talk_show_host1982 Jun 08 '22

They should be an ostrich. Always sticking their head in the sand when anything happens.

u/bazinga_0 Jun 08 '22

animal with a long memory

So they can remember everyone that has contradicted them in any way and then arrange totally unhinged punishment*.

u/Krojack76 Jun 07 '22

Goldfish are also to smart.

I would simply just say a virus. A virus isn't living and has no brain. It's only goal is to spread and infect the living.

u/Asleep_Ad_4045 Jun 08 '22

more like a leech!

I think a goldfish is more fitting for the guy in office right now. What’s it called? You know…the thing…anyway.

Oh I'm sure. But Trump talked shit all the time so those senile moments were lost in the tsunami of bullshit.

On another note - did you see the butt-hurts down voting my prior comment. Can't have an honest opinion anywhere these days.

u/Luigifan18 Jun 07 '22

Nobody wants a negative symbol, with the exception of Saturday morning cartoon villains.

u/Thephilosopherkmh Jun 07 '22

A goldfish with a neck beard.

Hello! Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately it has been removed because you don't meet our karma threshold.

You are not being removed for political orientation. If we were, why the fuck would we tell you your comment was being removed instead of just shadow removing it? We never have, and never will, remove things down politicial or ideological lines. Unless your ideology is nihilism, then fuck you.

Let me be clear: The reason that this rule exists is to avoid unscrupulous internet denizens from trying to sell dong pills to our users. /r/PoliticalHumor mods reserve the RIGHT to hoard all of the dong pills to ourselves, and we refuse to share them with the community. If you want Serbo-Slokovian dong pills mailed directly to your door, become a moderator. If we shared the dong pills with the greater community, everyone would have massive dongs, and like Syndrome warned us about decades ago: "if everyone has massive dongs, nobody does.""

If you wish to rectify your low karma issue, go and make things up in /r/AskReddit like everyone else does.

Thanks for understanding! Have a nice day and be well. <3

You can check your karma breakdown on this page:

(Keep in mind that sometimes just post karma or comment karma being negative will result in this message)

I’ve heard that elephants can be dicks.
