10 bags every time she goes to the store??? How many people does she feed? If I come home with 4 for my husband and me, it’s a lot!

I feel your pain. My car is also loaded with recyclable bags. Our town just banned plastic and only uses paper which is a nightmare if you’re carrying anything heavy.
Trader Joe’s uses paper shopping bags and they double bag everything. They also give you a credit if you bring in your own bag and enter you in a drawing for a gift certificate.

Back in the day, mid-1960s BU, there was a song referencing the school's curfew for the female dorm(s):

...

Frustrated women (I mean they're frustrated)
Have to be in by twelve o'clock (oh, that's a shame)
But I'm wishin' and a hopin', oh
That just once those doors weren't locked
I like to save time for my baby to walk around

...

[[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says she doesn’t recycle her plastic bags because her city’s recycling program is too “tough” for her to understand]]

Almost as tough as breathing to understand

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez posted a live video on her Instagram account where she was talking about different political issues while peeling and cutting sweet potatoes.

“Hold on a sec ... I'm gonna get me ... a yam ...”

Yes, until we a) convince a judge that laws exempting politicians are unconstitutional or b) we ignore their BS.

Did you heat there is now a company making condoms out of paper since there has been so much flack about condoms being tossed everywhere. So now you have to ask the girls if they want paper or plastic.

AOC is a gross embarrassment and I won’t even attempt to defend her remarks

but...
we once saw a serious memo in a big government bureaucrappy....admonishing the employees to use the correct recycle garbage cans... which quite literally littered their hallways....everywhere a different recycle can or box ...

the memo listed 19 different kinds of recycle bins there.. for about a hundred different types of stuff to be recycled....

paper here, lunch waste there, plastic over younder, batteries in a special container in the basement, ...etc etc etc

even the employees were joking about how the govt had hired a crew to run this recycle effort... and how the govt was paying all the employees to try to figure the Maze out...
and to run all over the 7 story building all day with their garbage trying to find the correct recycle boxes for each waste item

of course, the govt wasn’t wasting all these millions of its own dollars, the govt was wasting OUR tax dollars

but at least it gave the employees something to do

I’ll bet she eats a lot of spicy chicken wings.

I didn't think anything could raise her from zero in my estimation and then you had to go and posit that.

...great...now on top of all that, my stomach is growling.

Do me a favor Wayne. In the past couple weeks there have been at least four threads on the fallacy of recycling, especially curbside residential recycling. Look those up and read through them. I’ll bet your opinion changes.

This article on you tube about The brains behind AOC is a must see. I suspected this myself:

Her joint specialized in tacos. And if she is like the barmaids I know from a beer joint in the Village she is at best a vegetarian, but more likely a vegan. One gal who invited my daughter and I to her wedding had a completely vegan reception. Food wasnt terrible but I was glad the liquor was all top shelf.

No one ever said she was smart, just sounds good to low info voters.
