Ah, yes, Doctor Samuel Johnson, the man most of us know for the quote _“Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel.”_ and that you no doubt only know from the “funny meme” about a dude in a wig staring intensely at a book. Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens. ---

Let’s sing a song from a show about Nazis. Maybe it’s springtime for Hitler. My bad hand has improved today, making for fewer typos. ---

Yeah, and my hemorrhoids are bothering me less today too, but you don’t hear me bellyaching about every ache and pain do you? Don’t you wish Santa’s workshop was real? ---

Right. You want a group of under-sized enslaved workers forced to live in a freezing cold climate, making toys for an overweight, over-aged guy who gets all the recognition when he gives them away for free? You Nazi! I ate lunch in the park today, enjoying our great weather. ---

And you suppose the trees filter out the local dust and the air pollution of the entire world. Just keep telling yourself it was great weather. I managed to throw a bunch of stuff out – some for the veterans, some for the trash. Felt so good. ---

And you suppose it’s ok to give the veterans broken glass and old cardboard boxes, while you feel good you didn’t have them scrounge through old banana peels and coffee grounds! All our veterans want is some respect and you think you’re doing them a favor that you throw your trash at them! No wonder this country is going to the dogs! Hanging out with my dog, black, and my daughter’s dog, white, like dog bookends, just chillin’ on the couch. ---

Black dog…white dog? What is that suppose to be, some kind of racist dog whistle?! I miss the old phone books with their blue page, white page, and yellow page listings. ---

Which got thrown out every year. What an ecological disaster. A stranger paid for my 7-eleven coffee refill today. ---

Vagrancy is generally looked down upon in most places. Feel free to beg, but just not at the 7-Eleven near me. The keyboard manufacturing industry should just bite the bullet and start aggressively marketing non-qwerty keyboard designs. ---

You should probably bite the bullet and stop giving your opinion about mundane pointless things when no one asked you. I have a sty over my one eye. ---
