    I was going to post a meme in reply to the first post when I thought " You know, this isn't funny anymore." Memes are humour and there is no humour left in what is happening to your country and mine as well. Calling someone a 'Nazi' just because they don't agree with you is dangerous. You need to stop this shit, it's not funny anymore.

    Meh. There’s plenty of name calling from both sides from where I sit. At least meme’s poke some fun at the absurdity of both parties. You’ve just gotta be able to laugh at the absurdity of both R’s and D’s.

    So here we sit, with so many conspriacy theories and stories swirling around us. One story has ita that the banks are about to be nationalized, that Trump will declare martial law, that the cellular network will be taken down today, that most high level democrats and those republicans who weren’t loyal to Trump will be swept up in a huge dragnet soon after, that the Chinese invented 5G and turned their towers towards Wuhan and created the coronavirus, that the whole Coronavirus pandemic was simply a democratic plot to control our behavior, that there’s micochips in the masks we’re being asked (made) to wear, that there will be military courts and tribunals because the judicial system can’t be trusted, and that the fencing around the Capitol isn’t to keep people out, its a trap to keep people in!, and that Trump will eventually be inaugurated as president. Just as soon as he gets all of the above taken care of.
    This isn’t funny and it offends me. Because its been told as facts to honest people and I can name you three people I know personally that believe all of the above. That’s what is going on in MY country that is disgusting. If you aren’t disgusted and repelled by this intentional level of misinformation and the results its producing, then you are part of it.

    you omitted the one where there are hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops lined up on the northern and southern borders waiting to march in and take over.

    It’s really happening. They are just disguised as Hondurans.

    It's true I tell ya'! I KNOW it is because it's all over Twitter!

    Recent posts from a QAnon-backing Twitter handle with nearly 50,000 followers claimed that tens of thousands of Chinese troops had amassed along Maine’s border with Canada and that an F-16 fighter that crashed last week in Michigan was actually shot down — presumably by the Chinese.
    Heck, they even have a photo of the response by the U.S. military as they're moving tanks to the Canadian border!

    At 3 am this morning, I actually thought the revolution had started.....I had a big tractor battery on a trickle charger in my shop, and it decided to explode for some reason.....it was actually strong enough to rattle the windows in our bedroom.....I ran out to the shop, and it was filled with a fog of noxious fumes.....nothing I could do until the fumes dissipated, so I just went back to bed.....I'm sure the floor is gonna be a real mess.

    Wow! That's scary stuff Muddy. Many years ago and I'm talking roughly 60 years ago (I was 8-10 years old), we had a neighbor who was jumping his wife's car off with a pair of jumper cables. I don't know if he reversed the poles or if the battery had just built up a lot of gas and a spark ignited it, but it blew up in his face. I honestly don't remember what happened to him but I do remember it also got into his eyes. TBH, I remember it happening, but nothing after that. Weird.

    I’ve never had a battery blow up but I’ve worked around a ton of big lead acid batteries in my career and they always got my utmost respect when we had to work on them.

    Glad you were in the fart sack when it happened Muddy!

    Great! If he does all that, I’ll have to go BACK to work to help pay for it!

    This is actually a serious question CD, because I think we have kids around the same age. I have one 22 and one 17 (Jr year HS). The 22 I've already paid for college, and was planning on the second too. That being said since its now potentially free what are your thoughts? Have the second one get school loans in case it is paid for? We couldn't get that lucky right?

    I’ve got a Junior in college and a Junior in high school. So, we’re right in the same place tuition wise. I was mostly being tongue in cheek as I have no real expectation that there is ever going to be free tuition for the upper middle class. You do raise a good question though. I may have to put some thought into how that might work.

    So, if I paid my kid’s tuition in full last year, can I get reimbursed, or am I just screwed?

    You’re both idiots (CD and Hombre), and I mean that in the most non political and loving way. Right!

    Biden has never endorsed ‘free college’ or the across the board loan forgiveness plans the far left has proposed. Biden wants to make getting associate degrees part of a public education program. That’s it. So no. Your kids will have to pay forwhat they and you signed onthe dotted line for.
