Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

What the effing hell were they using a stupid-ass slogan like that for anyway??? Even completely free of any history, as if it had just been made up today, it's stupid and horrible. (I didn't click on the link; rage seems to surface way to easily lately, and I'm not feeling up to feeling anything other than mild amusement tonight.)

Google would have fairly quickly offered up the Know-Nothings, as well as the fact that it was the slogan of one of the groups that worked to prevent Jewish immigration prior to WWII.
I don't even know what to say to that. "People really are that stupid" gets borne out over and over.

Definitely good news for Darby!
ION, it looks like Planet Earth wants to fart us to death because we've been so selfishly polluting it.

I brought ginger cookies and still have half a tin left. They are NOT coming home with me.
Maybe kbugs mechanic would like them?
