The unfunniest meme ever born of this board and we had Guenon.

It was a natural reaction to Guenon spam. Something was going to happen, we just didn't know what. After the collapse of the train "flash meme", Guenon spam has been on a major decline.

>Although Churchward had retired in 1922, he continued to live in a GWR-owned house near to the line at Swindon, and he retained his interest in the company's affairs. He never married.[32] On 19 December 1933, now with poor eyesight and hard of hearing, he was inspecting a defectively-bedded sleeper on the down through line, when he was struck and killed by a Paddington to Fishguard express, pulled by No. 4085 'Berkeley Castle'. The locomotive was of the GWR Castle class, a successful design by Charles Collett derived from Churchward's "Star" class.
he's a martyr for locomotive engineering department.
