Not gonna lie, I’m glad to have something funny to laugh about, given how grim things are right now. I hope you get a brief chuckle out of this. God knows I needed something fun this week.

This is a Br*tish weirdo who apparently went looking for gold in Afghanistan and got himself captured by the Taliban. A while ago someone claiming to be a friend of his posted saying that he was alive and well and enjoying his time as a captive. Everyone called bullshit, including the Chapo hosts, who had a lot of fun with the whole situation last week.

Everybody was sure that this guy was very much dead but it turns out that the even funnier outcome actually came true: he really was alive and well, indeed having picnics, playing Xbox and apparently watching fucking Barbie with the guyliner-wearing Taliban.

Don’t get me wrong, he’s still a Br*tish dumbass who has no business being in Afghanistan at all, especially given his intention of establishing a gold mine, but this is truly the only really funny thing that’s happened this week, and I thought I’d share.
