Here's one you'll appreciate:
President Trump is not an idiot. He fly's in his personal Jet Airliner.

Actually that makes perfect sense!

Obviously not a liberal. If a liberal you would never see the words, 'Trump,' 'idiot,' and 'not' in the same sentence!

Funny post Nicci!

Perhaps priviledge is the on the cutting edge of modern, illiterate spelling! It is a privilege reserved for the purely uneducated. If their uneducation weren't pure they might gain the privilege of proper spelling. ... Naw... That would never happen, not in this universe, or at least not on C-D.

Maybe we can "dis-uneducate" them? No, that would never happen at C-D. I'd melt into the Wicked Witch of the North before that day! LOL!

I thought all her emails disappeared once she deleted the umpty-zillion emails about weddings and planning galas.

I wonder if breaking and entering could be considered as breaking a crime?

In any case, solvable by the miscreant entering into police custody!

Funny how breaking out of jail is a crime in itself! I guess that comes under the category of compounding your felonies. I wonder if a potential jail breaker could be considered as having a de-compounding interest?

That reminds me of some twisted verbiage that is painted on the side of a clothing donation box in the next town.
In an apparent effort to deter people from leaving donations on the sidewalk when the box is full, passersby are informed that...Dumping is a fine enforced by law.

Dumping?
Its'a fine!

Default I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck

@ a forum far, far away:

"and jump on any band wagon that attacks him."

It's the rogue band wagon that intrigues me. & what kind of band is it? A roving band? A vicious band (that'd be my guess)? A garage band? Do they hold fundraisers for themselves - Band-Aid? Is this different from a bandwagon? Is it like a band of brothers?

So if a band wagon attacks you, & you jump on, have you then become complicit in the wagon's attack upon you? What happens if the wagon tries to buck you off?

I've heard it's painful to fall off the wagon.

That's funny that you mentioned band wagons. A few years ago a crazy band actually drove their main instrument carrying truck and a few presumably band member vehicles and blocked the whole HOLLYWOOD FREEWAY and put on an impromptu concert! That's no lie, it's a true story!

The CHP eventually broke up their freeway blocking party and towed away that band wagon, lock, stock, guitars and all! Last I heard all of the involved parties were prosecuted... Probably by being forced to listen to their own music! Any band that has to block a freeway to get attention can't be good!

Band members arrested after blocking 101 Freeway for performance | L.A. NOW | Los Angeles Times

Band members who blocked Hollywood Freeway charged with felonies | L.A. NOW | Los Angeles Times

Much easier to fall off the wagon than fall on that wagon, although possibly leaping from a building might help that. Landing head first would be considered a permanent solution!

Well, the jury is still out on that issue, but after his recent interview with staffers of The Economist, it is beginning to look like... somebody... did not pay attention in his high school history classes, or in his college-level economics classes. Skip down to the part dealing with "priming the pump" if you want to be truly appalled.

Trump Explains Economics to The Economist. Hilarity Ensues.

Name calling gets you no points with me. Get a dictionary and look up the word 'idiot.' Maybe you misunderstand the meaning, or maybe you just enjoy ad hominem attacks?

Why is it that people intend to discuss a serious subject, and then inject name calling instead of sticking to coherent, comprehensible thoughts?

I'd rather have a debate without the name calling.
