i'll go first: our 17th prime minister one day vanished while swimming in the ocean and not only did none of his friends give a fuck, they started slapfighting immediately for who's gonna be his successor. no joke they didn't even let his body turn cold before the arguments began it was all so fucking funny.

One time they decided to dispose of a bunch of nuclear waste off the east coast and when the barrels didn't sink they had fighter planes strafe them.

We have also accidentally dropped several nuclear bombs on ourselves that luckily did not detonate.
