  • Of course they cheated, that’s MAGA’S entire brand. If they were absolutely sure that they’d win by an enormous margin, they’d STILL cheat.

    The Dems have been trying to sell the concept that there were millions of people in swing states that voted straight Democratic tickets, except HitlerPig at the top.

    Where are these people? I’m sure there were a few, but they are as rare as white squirrels. I have NEVER heard a single person claim to have voted Democratic except for HitlerPig, and I have never seen one speak in the media. There are supposed to be millions of them, so show me just one.

    It’s a silly idea. Of course they cheated. I’d be more surprised if it were proven they didn’t cheat.








  • Several years back, I went to the store at the beginning of summer to get some foam pool noodles for the pool. I couldn’t find them anywhere, not even Walmart.

    The next spring, they were everywhere, but they all included a tag or sticker that read “Not to be inserted rectally.”

    So we had to go a summer without pool noodles so the government regulators could protect us against some butt stuff some weirdo tried.

    Go back before smoking sections, and it was the Wild West. Smoking was the default environment. Non-smokers were expected to remove themselves if they were bothered by it.

    At the grocery store there would be a line of gumball machines for kids, right alongside a cigarette machine.

    My high school had a smoking courtyard, right across from the cafeteria. We called it The Pit. Teachers smoked in the Teachers Lounge. It was famous for having a cloud of smoke pour out whenever the door opened.

    I remember being in a doctor’s office as a kid, and having the doctor light up during the exam!

    In many families, both parents would smoke in the car with the windows rolled up, and kids in the backseat, with no car seats or seat belts.

    Nobody asked permission to smoke after a meal, they’d just light up, even if others were still eating. I remember my Dad getting offended when I asked him not to light his pipe at the dinner table while I was still eating.

    People smoked at every table in any restaurant.

    In offices, people smoked at their desks, until offices started having smoking rooms, and eventually chased them outside. Today I see workplaces where smoking isn’t allowed anywhere on the premises.

    I worked in record stores starting in 1977, and there was always a standup ashtray at the intersections of aisles, filled with sand. At the end of the night, while the manager was counting the till, one of the clean up jobs was taking a sieve to each ashtray, and sifting out the cigarette butts. Every store I worked in had ashtrays, until I became a store manager, and banned smoking in my stores.

    Almost EVERYBODY smoked in the 60s and 70s, except me.
