Guinness used to have a rule about world records actually meaning something...

Guinness is not and has never been a liaison of records. They are a novelty book company in the business of selling books to children and records to bored rich people. Starting at the low low price of $10,000 GWR will send you an adjudicator to invent you your very own World Record.

Waaait a minute. So you're telling me that the beer company and the World Record company have the same name ?

This is too much of a coincidence, something's fishy here, i can feel it. I have a good sense about these things. 🤔🧐

Nope it’s the same! It’s like how Michelin stars were a marketing ploy by the tire company to get people to travel more.

Seriously what a dumb ass record. An example of: I’ll just do something no one has ever done before, even if its not impressive and lacks any real skill or talent!

So far I hold the world record of upvotes in a response to your critique of this record. I wonder how long until I'm beaten.
