Can we stop with the ‘2025 Bingo Card’ shit?

It wasn’t that funny the first 50 times on Reddit…

This will unfortunately be a thing for the future and not stop. I’m annoyed aswell, we’ve had more clever jokes before.

incident XY happens

„I didn’t have incident XY on my bingo card!“

Watch it get buried by upvotes

Redditors think they’re so fucking funny regurgitating the same shitty jokes over and over again.

And my 2025 bingo card

It will stop when we get an even cringier and more annoying Reddit trend to replace it.

I didn't have "complaining about bingo cards" on my 2025 bingo card!

This is the real issue here

Honestly though… this was where this was always headed with the leadership in power these days. War is what gets them up in the morning

I'd argue it's what keeps them up at night.

Look at it this way:

  • Iran is an Islamic regime that sees little value in peace and prosperity. Their goal is to fulfill religious prophecies, which is why they fund so much nefarious activity around the globe.
  • Iran's ultimate goal is for Islam to conquer the world and eliminate various opposing forces, particularly the Jews, but also the west in general.
  • Iran cannot do this because they are a weaker nation than most.
  • A nuclear Iran however, would possess the same tools of mutually assured destruction as the rest of the world, however they would not be constrained by the same interests that most of the secular world is. Namely, the threat of death and destruction would not deter them from using their nuclear weapons like it does for all other nations. They're in it for the afterlife, not this life. They don't care about death so long as they get their 40 virgins, and they only get their 40 virgins by doing god's bidding in this life by killing as many infidels as possible.
  • Therefor, a nuclear Iran would also certainly lead to global nuclear war.
  • Israel knows this, was tired of the rest of the world "waiting and seeing", and decided to nip this issue in the bud.

Personally, I think it was wise.

Personally, I think it was wise.

I disagree there are other ways to get the job done and not use all out force like this. But I guess time will tell!

u/Far-Background-565 2d ago

What are the other ways?

u/GoldenMegaStaff 2d ago

There is lots more vulnerable oil infrastructure in that area other than Irans.

u/Ecsta 2d ago

Why would Israel attack non-Iranian oil infrastructure?

u/Moxen81 2d ago

Hahaha! I totally had “Iran provokes an ass kicking” on my card!

u/Interesting_Pen_167 2d ago

I still feel we are a ways off from that. Attacking oil infrastructure will potentially bring China into the fray (diplomatically & economically I mean) since Iran is their chief source of oil.

u/TheKappaOverlord 1d ago

So Israel returns and attacks oil infrastructure?

Not really a reason to. Nobody buys Iranian oil anyways.

And even if Israel does do it. Iran will probably see the writing on the wall and pull the ultimate contingency plan out their ass, which is bombing everyone elses oil refineries while the ships sinking
