I just assumed they were based out of Colorado, lol.

All hail Ron Swanson. Truly, what an original thought.

They’re talking about health insurance, water safety, and education. I’m not a fan of the Democratic Party, but these aren’t things like whether the US gets chosen for the Olympics or something like that.

They’re all married to each other, too. We really should have planned this better

Spain and españa are also just cognates

“Where are you?” is not something that many people would have said aloud outside of a game of hide and seek before the advent of pay phones and only rarely until the turn of the century or so.

What was the source from Christian apologists for her age, even if Wikipedia doesn’t take it?

I don’t need that for ammo against Christianity, lol, I went to catholic school, I’ve got plenty of material. I was using it to make a flip joke.

I’ll tally it myself and leave cash on the table, no stress

Oh, so many! Check out Pete Seeger and Woody Guthrie. Sixteen tons was written by Merle Travis, who’s got a bunch of other great music as well.

A few times a month, maybe? A lot of things come in ten packs and the bakery I work at sells five rolls for a discount, so I’ll get two of those relatively frequently

I use it in a mortal combat voice whenever I eat a tenth of something and it always makes my husband laugh (somehow)

It’s striking how much better country was when they had class consciousness

Edit: no pun intended

That sentence took a moment to parse, lol. I initially thought you were saying the opposite
