In the third world, the top 1% owns 90% of all wealth. It is good to be the top 1% in the third world, if you can manage the unsightly underclasses all around you. In the US, the top 1% live in their own cocoon, so they are out of sight for the most part. Plus, the underclass still has iphones, running water, and Cadillacs.

I guess some people have never owned a cat. If the cat wants to go for a ride, the cat should get to go for a ride.

That is how my cat would see things, anyway.

“Hey, buddy! You wanna race? My Dodge Demon has over 700 horsepower.”

“Oh. My truck just has one lion power. Go tear the bumper off his car, Leo.”

At the valet stand.......

“No way! It’s your turn to park that truck. I just got out of the hospital last week. And for what? A $2 tip? Forget it!”

“Excuse me, sir, but do you know why I pulled you over?”

“Well, officer, I might have been a couple of miles over the speed limit.”

“No, sir. I pulled you over because you’ve got a lion in the back of your pickup.”

“Dang It! The elephant must have jumped out at the stop light.”

You don’t want to be working at the car wash when this guy goes through.

“Yes sir. What seems to be wrong with your pickup?”

“I’m getting a roar from the back.”

> How do these people in 3rd world countries afford $40K vehicles?

Put a lion in the back of your truck and the police will opt to not collect their “salary” from you and will pull over other drivers for bribes. Saving $40k over your 5-year loan is possible if you drive a lot (at least that’s the impression I get from the stories of my Paki friend when he visits home).

He should have driven him to the Super Bowl, since no Lion had ever been there before.

So you can be an internationally-wanted master terrorist guilty of murdering thousands of people, and live well and protected in Pakistan, but Heaven forbid you bring your pet lion for a ride in your truck.

You know, suddenly even Detroit doesn’t look so bad. Phuck Paki-$hitholeistan, it is every bit as Afghani-$hitholeistan and the rest of the $hitholeistans.

Should be: it is every bit as bad as Afghani-$hitholeistan and the rest of the $hitholeistans.
