America Is A Peculiar Place

This continent wide colossus of contradictions that we persist in calling a country is a bit of a peculiar place. Alcohol was once bad enough that we had to pass a constitutional amendment to ban it, nowadays the bars have gone mobile.

Would you like a side of fries with your heart attack? We may not be able to afford health care but at least we've got donut burgers.

Wilford Brimley would like to have a word with y'all.

Don't mind the signs, Americans are a friendly bunch. Southern hospitality is particularly noted, as Martin Luther King can attest. On second thought, you might want to take the signs seriously.

We love our freedumb here in America, and nothing says freedumb like recoilless rifles and heavy machine guns. With how much of it we've sent overseas it's no wonder we're so popular.

Surveillance is the same thing as security, right? And security is what we traded the freedumb for, right? Surveillance is freedumb!

Sometimes it's best to not ask questions.

Unfortunately, there are still probably people who will say this unironically. They also think the drug prohibitions without any amendment are A-OK. We live in a world of government by Karens.

My home county didn't go 'wet' until 2019, I can vouch for there being plenty of people willing to say that unironically. It's also the same place Woody Harrelson got arrested for planting hemp 😎 Pretty sure calling them Karens is being overly kind.

What can I say, I'm in a good mood today. Sourdough baking experiments are going well, and a post will doubtless be forthcoming later this evening. If I were tired and hungry, my language might be far more harsh.

What in the what is in the donuts in Kentucky? Rolling around in tricked out cripple chairs..

Excellent, Jethro.

That is a question for which I do not have an answer. Lol, those chairs could pop wheelies. Thank you sir!
