This Bidenomics thing goes deeper than we thought - turns out that sales of cassettes, washboards, and laudanum have downright PLUMMETED.

I worked retail during a time when anti maskers would cough _at_ you or make a point of talking to you from considerably closer than anyone would find comfortable in a grocery store.  
I sincerely hope I don’t have to deal with people shitting in the store as some type of political statement.

He strikes me as the kind of kid who wears a suit to class every day and always “reminds” the teacher that they had an assignment to turn in today.

He’s attractive in a Ralph Wiggum sort of way.

Cleans my plate.  
Takes out the garbage, without being asked.  
Walks the dog.  
Shaves once a week.  
Has a newspaper route.  
Looks great in my dad’s suit.

Just by describing himself as “alpha male” he kills all possibility of being taken seriously by anyone who counts.
