He wasn't watching PBS... so someone else told him to do it after watching it. Probably same person trying to find more reasons to defund PBS.
Ikr, him watching pbs would be a good onion though
It's like a billion dollar rebuild and a multi million dollar yearly budget, why the fuck would we ever open this shithole ever again.
It lasted like 30 years specifically because sadly corroded the ever loving fuck out of everything and last I heard salt water isn't any less salty then 1969.
I'm sure he wasn't even aware of what station was airing the movie. He was flicking through the channels and saw one that was interesting.
Lmfao whatta coincidence!
