As a lifelog resident of Ohio I can assure you the biggest border concern we have is Michigan in football season and Kentucky on Friday nights.

We don't even have Mexicans waiting in the parking lot of Home Depot on Saturday and there are white kids working in the McDonalds here.

But what about those Canadians who are just across Lake Erie? Don't you need to build a wall in the middle of Lake Erie to keep them from illegally entering Ohio? Eh?

They learned their lesson at the Battle of Lake Eire: "We have met the enemy and they are ours..."

Dear General:

We have met the enemy and they are ours. Two ships, two brigs, one schooner and one sloop.

Yours with great respect and esteem,

I think Pogo's version is more widely known than O.H. Perry's.

I loved that comic strip. I still quote it almost every month that "Friday the 13th falls on a Wednesday this month", and at Christmas, I sing "Deck us all with Boston Charlie, Walla Walla Wash and Kalamazoo".

My family loves Pogo. Christmas was not Christmas without singing "Deck us all with Boston Charlie."Good times. :biggrin:

Don't understand significance.

The guy closest to the camera could be in somewhat MAGA attire. The rest, not so much.

I misread this as a debate and thought that’s a bad thing. Now I see it’s Vance and Graham. And interesting so little MAGA clothing.

I'm sure that the promoters didn't want the cameras to show a lot of empty seats, but that shot, showing just how few seats and attendees there were, isn't much better.

J.D. a FAKE? Just like his fake memoir?

Decided to read a review because, yeah, I need validation too. If this is too long, the first sentence is a good summary.
Lark Benobi
May 21, 2022
The first problem I had with this book is the author is a bonehead. On page 8 he tells us “I have known many welfare queens; some were neighbors, and all were white.”

I have no idea what I’m supposed to make of that statement. Or actually yes I do know but even so I try to look away. Because of course “welfare queen” is a derogatory term used by people of means to deride the poor, and of course it’s most commonly used to demean and dehumanize urban black poor women, but an author bragging that he knows white “welfare queens” doesn’t really get to the core problem of using a derogatory term to describe poor women, does it? I guess he thinks himself enlightened for declaring that poor people of all colors are equally lazy and undeserving. The entire book is based on the premise that the poor are poor because they are lazy and bitter.

The second problem I had with this supposed memoir is it has all the depth and compassion of a Three Stooges episode. It’s an endless string of anecdotes that involve outrageous behavior, destruction of property, and/or grave bodily harm. Take for instance a time when someone douses another someone with gasoline and sets that someone on fire. Don’t worry! No one was seriously hurt! It’s okay to laugh! Or if anyone was hurt, they deserved it! Also don’t forget that hillbilly folk actually like to hurt one another, because we’re all kind of stupid and lazy! Except me, because I went to Yale and made something of myself, just like anyone can, if they have grit and spitfire!

Ok. That's about it.

Oh hell no.

JD Vance, in a move that has me conflicted and furious at the same time, does his latest commercial in an Ohio State T shirt.

A guy whose backstory largely involved him growing up and going to Yale. It's enough to make a Wolverine cry. 😢

I saw a Vance photo from not that long ago where he didn't have the beard. Is it a MAGA requirement?
Edit: Also, he just wants to save as many lives as possible. Except if they're Ukrainian.

They started putting on those stupid beards when images of "Elite Snipers" with long beards hit the web. Except those beards were for blending in with fundie Muslim countries, not to make them elite Warriors.

Bevis Trump and Butthead Trump started wearing beards at the same time though, so I think their daddy told them to. Probably to punish them for daddy being useless.
