Technically it's the United States of America, so it has an R.

[-] sangriaferret@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 year ago

Also, The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. That's a lot of r's.

GREETINGS FELLOW HUMAN. BEEP BEEP BERP. I AM HUMAN TOO. I CAN RECITE AN ENDLESS LIST OF FACTS LIKE ANY HUMAN.

[-] C4ptFuture@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

This guy wins.

[-] Arsenal4ever@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

It is the response I dreamt of for this sub. I just kept laughing. I also think this was generated by a an AI.

Nope, I used Vim to process the first text file I found from a Google search. LLMs are actually pretty bad at this kind of thing

[-] Nemo@slrpnk.net 6 points 1 year ago

See: "No country in Africa starts with K" meme

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

If it was generated by AI, they would all have the letter R in them.

[-] Wirrvogel@feddit.de 4 points 1 year ago

These are ge many countries without an "r", Sir!

[-] rockyTron@lemm.ee 14 points 1 year ago

I don't get it

[-] CaptainEffort@sh.itjust.works 45 points 1 year ago

“No way” is Norway without an R

[-] yimby@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 year ago

Norway - r = ?

[-] CmdrShepard@lemmy.one 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Norway - r = ?

+r = +r

No way = ? + r

Now I'm stuck.

[-] APassenger@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I think you're supposed to take the third derivative and plot that on a y(naut) axis.

[-] grabyourmotherskeys@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

This is why people say Chicargo.

[-] APassenger@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Warshington is what happens when you do integration.

Same with Chicargo, I think.

[-] Turun@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

If you add r to both sides you are left with "Norway" on the left, not "no way", since you previously had a "-r" there.

[-] Nouveau_Burnswick@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

The joke doesn't work in Australian English.

[-] justhach@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Awr nawr!

[-] justhach@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

This was funny until I had to think of at least a dozen countries before I could remember one with and R in it lol.

[-] qyron@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

Ye man, cool.

[-] innkeeper@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Dude...stop it

[-] PapaStevesy@midwest.social 4 points 1 year ago

What a punchline...

[-] megabite@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Dominica?

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

*Dominican Epublic
