Americas 300 Aniversary At Risk

[Q.E.D]

@Little_Nemo

Anyone want to take a guess at what 300th anniversary is at risk? Being as Obama is standing in for Satan I’ll assume it’s sometime in the next four years. So what event occurred between 1709 and 1713 that we were supposed to acknowledge?

Gee, I thought he meant 2076. I have my calendar marked and everything!

Or it is proof that our schools are failing to teach our children spelling, proper punctuation, and sentence structure.

I guess home schooling doesn’t offer any improvement either.

Oh noes, not our precious bodily fluids!

Rain water, Armand Paul, it’s the only way. Rain water and buttsex. No, wait. Just rain water.

And pure grain alcohol - can’t forget that!

Found on an Assyrian tablet around 2800 BC.

If you believe that, then I can offer an excellent deal on the Brooklyn Bridge.

Oh that anniversary. I was figuring that one had already been written off. Carter and Clinton already sent America down the path to inevitable destruction so we’re doomed anyway. I was figuring the OP was saying Obama was causing a more immediate demise.

And once more jazz and cubism bend civilisation over and jam their twin spiky prongs into its nether regions.

But where will the soldiers stay? Our homes, that’s where. You heard it first here: quartering. Just think of it, military horses eating your oats. Soldiers sleeping in your bed. And who’s gonna pay for all that hardtack?

One question: are these soldiers hot?

Meh. So he was a bit off on the date and/or place. The principle remains.

I’m glad to see I’m not the only one whose mind went there.

They’re America’s 300. I’m guessing they’re mostly nekkid (if slightly cartoony)

Then try one of these on for size:

The children now love luxury. They have bad manners, contempt for authority, they show disrespect to their elders… They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and are tyrants over their teachers.

The young people of today think of nothing but themselves. They have no reverence for parents or old age. They are impatient of all restraint. They talk as if they alone knew everything and what passes for wisdom with us is foolishness with them. As for girls, they are forward, immodest and unwomanly in speech, behaviour and dress.

Both attributed to Socrates, ca. 400 BC.

(To be perfectly honest, there is no direct evidence that Socrates is the source of either quote. Some discussion here if you’re so inclined.)

In any case, you can’t sell him the Brooklyn Bridge. My grandpappy bought it over a hundred years ago, and it’s been in the family ever since.

I was wondering if we could choose them! I have a few in mind…

Pshaw! America’s 300th in jeopardy??? I, for one, am absolutely CERTAIN that America will be destroyed on Dec 21, 2112. The Mayans and Nostradamus say so! So I hope you will excuse me if I refuse to be concerned about Sonia’s Evil Plan to Wreck America by 2025.

OK, we’ve all had our fun with the drive-by poster. Fun’s over. Move along, nothing to see here.
