1. Can't laugh much about the feral hog thing..

I have a good, liberal friend in rural Oklahoma who has to hire a hog sniper with an AR-15 a few times a year because of hogs. She has joked that the last thing she thought she’d have to think about when she moved out there was whether to buy an AR-15 for protection from hogs. They do incredible damage.

5. The feral hog reference relates to ajoked about twitter post going around last week.

6. I didn't see it. Thanks.

I think I’ve internalized my friend’s anxiety about those damn things from several hog-free states away. 😂

2. Not all that different from pro-gun statements here at DU, over the years.

Unfortunately.

4. 1961 is too early for Pong. More like early '70s

7. I was thinking the same.

But that’s the meme I saw

8. If it had been 1961, all of those guys would be wearing navy suits, white shirts, skinny ties,

squared-off pocket silks, brow-rim glasses, and Brylcreem.

That pic is unmistakeably from the 1970's.

9. Atari announced Pong on November 29, 1972

12. So something from

fakehistoryporn had a date wrong?

13. It's about actual history. Pong is generally credited as being the first widely distrubuted...

video game. All the rest of the stuff can be fake whatever but some of us remember Pong came out in the early '70s not 1961.

One good thing about DU is you can learn something everyday.

10. It's not even parody because this is 100% real life

and I could direct you to hundreds upon hundreds of twitter accounts...
