Stupid woman. She may as well had given the “Vulcan V Sign”.

That comic book and its movie are more reliable, more accurate than their speeches and beliefs.

Life’s harsh realities can disappear when living full time in a fantastical, mythical fantasy.

Yeah, no. Instead of tuning in to all these funerals I am going to watch my copy of “Blues Brothers” for the 100th time.

Were I a big fan of Africa I would be ashamed that no real country is even close to the fantasy one.

She bases her actions on an effing comic book.

What the hell is going on with this country.

There used to be giants on both sides of the aisle. Now we have comic book worship.
