I too wake early, mainly due to an elderly bladder and a puppy bladder…it kills two birds with one stone so to speak. And once I’m up, of course I bung the telly on. The only station I watch is the Australian ABC, but at 4 or 5 in the morning, it relays DW News. Unless there’s a banner across the screen screaming BREAKING NEWS, TRUMP IS DEAD I’m strangely disappointed. There’s always tomorrow. 🙂 ---

But they demand breakfast at 4am. My wife and I are naturaly early risers anyway, so it’s not really a big deal. ---

> [@Dung\_Beetle](#): > > I got up this morning and my husband was watching TV. Some kind of newsperson at a desk and a picture of Trump. 😮 Could this be it? Something similar happened to me a while ago-- I fell asleep with the TV on but muted. When I woke up it was the wee hours of the morning, and the TV showed a closeup of JD Vance talking seriously to the camera. I thought, _could this be it?_ Nah, it was just a replay of ‘Meet the Press’. ---

Frankly, I wish Donald got turned on to toking. Would probably do him a world of good compared to whatever they’re giving him now. ---

Might do the WORLD a world of good. Nothing to lose at this point, he’s pretty much fucked up everything. ---

I would love to introduce him to “the bucket” a means of using cannabis which involves a bottomless 5 litre jug, a bucket full of water, a small piece of aluminum foil, and a large amount of teenage bravado. Stupid as that is, my friends and I went even further. Not going to share details though, except it was exceptionally stupid. It involved a window wiper pump and a 3m column of water. ---

Yeah, I missed the part where the water supply was an upright 3m tall 5cm wide conduit pipe, that water pressure into our 5 litre lungs was…interesting. It only worked for one night, we moved it and then it leaked terribly. Plumbing is not necessarily the ouvre of the non-plumber teenager. ---

Giggle jug is the preferred nomenclature in these parts. ---

You guys had a fun youth. We weren’t allowed. ---

I think the main reason kids find that fun is **because** it’s not allowed. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/trump-is-dying/1022520.md?page=72) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/trump-is-dying/1022520.md?page=74)
