46. Not Exactly

Fri Dec 20, 2024, 05:18 PM

Yesterday

Fortunately, we don’t generally have Trump flags or other offensive displays of Trump crap around here. So the finger stays put when I’m driving. The only exception was on election day when a pickup truck sporting four huge Trump flags in the bed and multiple Trump stickers drove into the shopping center that I was in. My jaw dropped.

Having said that, the middle finger gets quite a workout at home on the rare occasions when I still watch the news. It’s reflexive at this point.
