Is that how North Korea came up with its movie streaming NETFLIX equivalent Manbang. If it didn't, maybe it should have.

"North Korea is a place which is constantly thriving to improve the quality of life of its citizens. That includes telling them about the health benefits of dog meat, having its own beer festival and winning the world cup."

I never saw that picture of Kim with his generals before.

I remember seeing a picture of another novice telling his elder generals how to win a war.

Not to get off topic ( which I sometimes do ) , this post was supposed to be about the contest to name the Chinese Mars explorer.

  • Coca-Cola
  • Pepsi
  • The Clinton Foundation
  • NAACP
  • NRA
  • Pipefitters Union local 304
  • Ford
  • GM
  • Clinto 2016
  • John Deere
  • Lawn Boy

close enough...
