    This is our government. This is our government because people voted for these people over other people. People chose this over other options.

    Which is why I freely tell people I’m surrounded by morons. Morons everywhere in this country. All around.

    So people reply to that with “have you ever considered that YOU’RE the common denominator? All of society can’t be all wrong!”.

    When they say that I just say “Thanks for self identifying as part of the moron herd.”

    Because yes, if one person is wrong, and everybody plays follow the leader, then EVERYBODY is wrong together.

    Right now, roughly 52% of the country is wrong together, but I’d say closer to 90% of the country are just in general morons.

      You’re in a room with no windows and ten clocks.

      Three of the clocks say 5:30 AM. Three of the clocks say 12:15 PM. Three of the clocks say 9:43 PM. One clock says 31:92 OM.

      What time is it?

      I don’t know, but it’s not fucking 31:92 OM.
