I can't believe we're so beyond parody at this point. Also, instant game over from trying to hold Melania's hand lol

Idiocracy was supposed to be a warning, the GOP took it as an instruction manual.

Try again, fighting the Pope is worth it.

Wow - the writing in this is fantastic. This is genuinely hilarious!

For context, this is made by https://www.thesecrethandshake.com/, the same group behind the Trump + Epstein statue at the National Mall.

Amazingly high-effort art.

lbrito•47m ago

I was unsure if this was a legit propaganda piece for the first few seconds!

egorfine•44m ago

Excellent. I remember King Quest, Larry Quest and the rest and it immediately gave me the same nostalgic vibes.

lorecore•22m ago

They were actually called Kings Quest and Leisure Suit Larry. There was also Police Quest and Space Quest. Sierra Online really had some of the canonical adventure game series.

benoau•18m ago

And Hero's Quest, later known as Quest for Glory. This was arguably more fun because it added RPG traits.

Space Quest was my absolute favorite!

Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of Lounge Lizards, if we're to be pedantic, with episode subtitles like Love for Sail :)

This would be perfect on a play date

I know this is frowned upon on HN, so feel free to vote me down.

But it only works on Firefox for me, not on Chrome.

Try going to chrome://gpu and looking for red text or error messages

Sounds like a feature, not a bug

Who remembers the Newgrounds games making fun of Bush during the Iraq war?

I decided to get the diet coke and call it "enough" for the day.

Reminds me of that Alex Jones shooter

epicfurious.com is blocked by my service provider. It’s a small, local, fiber company called mornington.

They do not say why in the returned html.

I do not approve of such blockage.

Nevertheless. Knowledge is knowledge. So I post for everyone’s sake.

A DNS WHOIS [1] shows what's likely the cause:

> Important Dates: Created 4/28/2026

Many an ISP these days blocks domains that have been registered less than a month ago because most scam campaigns have to cycle through domains way faster than that time.

Check if you have enabled some sort of "malware protection" at your ISP, because that usually is based on DNS filtering.

Useful - thank you. I will contact them.

I was going to say that political censorship is out of control in the US, but that appears to be a Canadian ISP?

Man no ball room?

If Iran would have ball room, Khomeini would be still alive.

It's great except the war is obviously for Israel not oil, we had more access to oil before the war

captainbland•4m ago

I mean it's not clear the current state of things was the ambition before the war, a while back they were talking about seizing Kharg island which indicates capturing oil resources was an objective

namuol•4m ago

Oil prices going up is “good” for petrol states who aren’t blocked.

But yeah fair callout about Israel.

tofuahdude•10m ago

Anyone finish burning the files yet?

I tried... but it looked like it would take awhile...

JKCalhoun•9m ago

Here's hoping there are expansion packs (and that Mexico will pay for them).

dlev_pika•7m ago

It’s so hard to parody these mfers, like AJ - no matter how outrageous, could very well fit in their actual week

baggachipz•7m ago

Absolutely brilliant and I'm amazed at how current it is. Huge kudos to the developer.

Why was this removed from the front page? It was number one just a couple minutes ago
