Keeping all TrumpтАЩs transgressions front and center to the public would require a special 24/7 channel devoted to just that topic. Actually . . . I think thereтАЩs a niche, untapped opportunity there.
I was thinking of starting a newsletter called "My Sh!t List" to remind people of the second tier actors who are terrible, who led us here over the past few decades. Folks like John Yoo, Karl Rove, Kellyanne Conway, Eileen Cannon, etc. With occasional fun days like "Verbal Tippers" and "People Who Don't Use Turn Signals."
LOL...I was just driving this week behind a BMW who hit their brake lights unexpectedly and I was thinking that perhaps they had a car issue or that an animal ran in front of them...and then they turned right into a driveway hidden by the trees. It's a bit of a desolate wooded area where you wouldn't expect someone to be pulling into a driveway.
I went on and on in my mind after that wondering how hard is it to just flip on your blinker...
We get that in Richmond on the daily. Our personal favorite is turning left from the right hand lane. Traffic enforcement in Richmond was negligible before 2020, now it's non-existent.
When I lived in central VA, we used to call that the Virginia Swing. Now I'm back in New York with the NY left (making a left on a red light). Oh well, at least it's not Maryland drivers.
You are not alone! After TrumpтАЩs election and administration, I started a list of things that need to be addressed in our governance - a big category included things I thought were laws, but were actually just тАЬnormsтАЭ based on honor. I also have a photo file of screenshots of тАЬUgly Trump photosтАЭ - itтАЩs now over 260. Just a weird salve to my psychic wounds over what we are enduring.
I get it. I can't tell you how much of a thrill I get when they use a bad photo of him on the news, because I know how angry it makes him. It's so petty, but Trump brings out the worst in everyone.
Haha, verbal tippers are people who make a big point of telling you -- the server -- how much they enjoyed everything and what wonderful service you gave them -- before they leave a dollar and walk out.
Meager tippers are almost as much an insult as are no tippers. I've never understood why anyone would stiff wait staff. Not easy work, low hourly rate.
It's the 15-20% of a-holes who ruin it for everyone. The absolute worst are the Jesus people who leave you a card saying you can be saved in Christ. Thanks for the "tip."
It really grinds my gears that Trump has suffered no reputational damage from giving into the Taliban.

I think for cops Covid was a kind of golden era. "Drive around, but whatever you don't get within 6 feet of anyone... .

Isn't that only on one-way streets?
Maryland is universally the worst.

Exactly. Petty begets petty. How low can we go?
Now all I'm seeing is an image of Trump attempting to limbo -- and the petty part of me is loving it.
Haha! IтАЩm pretty sure theyтАЩd be picking him up off the floor at 2 degrees off vertical!
I think that's a good idea but what are "verbal tippers?"
