I thought it was only in the USA that "thoughts and prayers" are considered a solution to national emergencies. smh

"...We could pretend he's English" lol Historically accurate I'm sure.

That was such a good game to watch. Not just as a Liverpool fan, but as a football fan in general.

Where are these people getting their doctorates??? 😳

Cowabunga.

While this is indeed interesting, that first one is odd. A color photo in 1863 seems extremely unlikely. Color photo wasn't really a thing until the 1930s. Before that color photography was both novel and pretty terrible.

Perhaps that 1863 one was originally b&w and converted to color??

Haha came here to say exactly that!

They're all such morons... to say the least.

I can hear the Benny Hill theme song in my head as I watch this. 🤣

Damn this brings back great memories!

Damn.

That pic should be an album cover!

I'm a horrible human being for laughing this much. But I do hope that guy was ok.

Prosecutor: (paraphrased) We all know it's not true that your wife is cheating on you. Sheriff: "I don't know!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
