No, because anyone who was willing to dictate that people with a certain opinion should be exterminated would clearly have major authoritarian tendencies, probably to a greater degree than many of those they were persecuting.

No. That kind of persecution is authoritarian in itself, so everyone would just end up killing themselves.

Praise Jesus, especially when it's sunny outside because Jesus would totally be cool with you praising while you get a nice tan.

Were strawberries ever eaten with bananas? Who decided that combination should be a thing?

(Presumably, the only way to stop a bad guy with a transgender-friendly privacy law is a good guy with a transgender-friendly privacy law, and thus transgender-friendly privacy law rights need to be enshrined in the Constitution as well)

Probably the same person who made up blue raspberry as a flavor. Or maybe a cousin of that person.

JamishT was a heck of a guy,
With a devilish twinkle in his eye.
With his hand-picked flowers,
And his feel-good powers,
He made all the girls blush and sigh.

Why don't they invent mouthwash that CAN be a substitute for brushing or hair removal spray that CAN be spread around? Why not move beyond the fair print and make it so it's unneccessary?

Mountain Dew is often spelled Mtn Dew so do I say "mitten dew", "maintain dew", "mountin' dew", or "mutton dew"?

According to some guys, up until the 1960's, most of the world including the US were poor and rural. This leads me to a social theory that everyone came from farms and wound up in cities just yesterday. The Liberals are trying too hard to not look like they came from farms. the Conservatives keep failing to realize that they're in a city now, not on a farm (Preferably, for them, "the one with Jesus in it"), and that they can't just "go back".

Imagine the conversation?
"Why can't I carry my guns?!"
"You can't do that, you in a buildin'!"
"But we all s'posed to have guns on the farm with Jesus on it!"
"But we ain on a farm, we in a city!"
"... Teh hecks a city? And why can't we have guns like in the farm?!"
"'Cause you s'posed to act different when you's in the city! We don need no guns in the city!"
"So's yous city people, naw?!"
"Wat you talkin' 'bout? You's also city people! Yous people in a city. Baw book meanin', City people!"

I like how the language devolves into crap in this conversation.

Krash, speaking as a country person, country people definitely know what buildings are. Most country people own one or two, with farmers owning rather more, while most city people rent some small portion of one.

Where'd you get 'buildin' from? The poor bastard doesn't know what a city is.

Which is how I outted myself as a city person. Bringing us to the next installment in this series: "No one likes the disconnected and pompus bourgeoisie."
