      From: j63840576@gmail.com              đ꧍ 2. “Set us up the bomb”       This is a famous meme line from the early 2000s, originating from the       badly translated video game Zero Wing.       The original line is:       â€śAll your base are belong to us.       You have no chance to survive make your time.       Someone set us up the bomb.”              It became internet shorthand for:       - we got sabotaged       - someone screwed us over       - we’re doomed because of someone else’s actions       It’s intentionally dramatic and humorous because of the broken English.              * * *              The English was so broken I had the translation backwards.       --       xGytDsqkQY8              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
