The fact that this monster lived a full century without facing any justice for the mass graves filled with his victims makes me ill, but I am glad to hear that he's finally gone.

There's a mythical story (Greek or Roman) where a goddess managed to get her human lover an eternal life, but forgot to ask for eternal youth. This oversight led to the horror where he watched his beautiful young lover from afar while he lost all grace, prominence and influence while withering away into an eternal life of suffering.

Honestly, that is what this old goat deserved. Not the peaceful death that he got.

I don't think anyone deserves never-ending torment and anguish.... but maybe a lot of it in this case?

Ok fine, how about 1000 years of hourly anal pineapple insertions while wearing a french maid costume?

Or justice for the powerful.

This is why I can't celebrate his death, it didn't come from a hanging.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Nov 29 (Reuters) - Former United States Secretary of State Henry Kissinger died on Wednesday at his home in Connecticut at the age of 100, Kissinger Associates, Inc said in a statement.


The original article contains 32 words, the summary contains 32 words. Saved 0%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

I heard Henry Kissinger ran into a tree and all his money fell out of his pockets and the teens called him Sonic the Bitchhog while he tried to get at least one coin so he could go on. But alas, it wasn’t meant to be.
