hey remember when a bunch of middle-aged drunk korean lawmakers climbed the locked gates to the national assembly to hold an emergency session after the president gave illegal orders to the military, all of which ended with said president being sentenced to prison

I swear to god, every Malt-o-Meal generic cereal name sounds like old-timer slang for gay people. You can’t tell me no one in the 1970s wasn’t referring to their gay neighbors as the “marshmallow mateys”
