    Why would anyone still want to go the USA for fun? I think the USA made it clear they don’t want us foreigners anymore… just our money.

      Some adventurous people intentionally want to go to North Korea too, so I guess the same kind of crowd will be visiting USA in the future. Can you go through customs with a pencil in your pocket without being sent to a torture camp? Only one way to find out.

        It’s gonna be like those Vice documentaries of NK from the 2010’s.

        Meanwhile in 2033: “Omg guys, I finally made it into America, now, we were told we couldn’t film outside so we’ve just been leaving the camera on and carrying it aimed out of the bag…”

          LOL, it’s going to be so good. Can’t wait to see that documentary. I wonder if they make it to the Statue of Liberty in one piece.

            “Wow, look at all the busted windows…”

            “Yeah, shame, think it was a Gamestop.”

        Yeah, because it’s a #2 pencil. Cheeto demands everyone use #1 pencils, like america is #1.
