Wonder Why

2. It's time we got them back for that. We should have sprayed insecticide on their Beatles. Missed our chance back then.

We should have hidden an iceberg in front of the Titanic. Did that.

We could demand ransom for Queen Mary or the original London Bridge.

We could deny entry to Earl Grey and his ilk or dump English Breakfast tea into Boston harbor.

We could sue them for naming HP Sauce after Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard.

We could make fun of their enormous expense to rename all their Navy ships from HMS (whatever) after the Queen to HMS (whatever) after King Chucky.

I'm sure there are other ways.
