Agreed 100%. Me too. But at what cost?
btt
All personal realestate is on a 99 year lease. Tax on a car is 3x its value.
Dress it up all happy and joyful for the season! Completes the deception.
"A lawn sweeper, also known as a leaf sweeper, is a garden tool for the mechanical removal of debris, such as fallen leaves, pine needles, twigs, grass clippings or litter, from a lawn or paved area. Lawn sweepers operate via a rotating brush mechanism that sweeps up the debris and deposits it in a collection hopper for disposal."
You can push them by muscle power or pull behind a lawn tractor.
Google or whatever for pictures.
For a correct analogy someone would have to take by force the $50 from the little girl and give $5 to the homeless and keeping the rest for themselves as administrative cost. Also the Homeless guy would never be asked to do anything to get the “free” money as that would shame him.
On PC patrol?
It's okay, so long as he prefaces the term with the word "Inscrutable".
Example: Inscrutable Orientals.
You are repeating things that aren’t true. Do some reading about Singapore, and PM me if you have questions.
I've been to over two dozen countries and I still use the term oriental. The orient is Eastern Asia. Oriental is a perfectly good word. Remember "the Oriental Express." Asia is huge. To call both a Indian and a South Korean "Asian" is confusing. I don't know who started the whole "Oriental is racist," but the term was never racist. People don't use bad terms when IDing things that they like, i.e. oriental rugs, oriental furniture, oriental pottery, etc., etc.... .
Excellent story. The best part is the happy ending — pissing off libs.
Traveled there a bit. My info is from the locals.

....DOPEY LIBERAL PARENTS, SO ITS NICE THAT THE YOUNGSTERS GET IT:
I invited the little liberal to come over and mow the lawn, pull weeds, and sweep my yard for $50.
She could then give the homeless guy $50 toward his food and a new house (things she would do as a liberal president).
She then asked, “Why doesn’t the homeless guy come over and do the work....you pay him the $50?”
I said, “Welcome to the Republican Party.”
Her parents still aren’t speaking to me.
LOL - great one Liz
Sounds anecdotal but I like it and I’m definitely going to use it.
Oriental Rug?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oriental_rug
“Geographically, oriental rugs are made in an area referred to as the “Rug Belt”, which stretches from Morocco across North Africa, the Middle East, and into Central Asia and northern India. It includes countries such as northern China, Tibet, Turkey, Iran, the Maghreb in the west, the Caucasus in the north, and India and Pakistan in the south.”
Not as “Asian” or as “East Asian” as the name would imply.
I’ve sold everything and am moving to Singapore next month to open a chain of bubblegum stands
“No sex, no drugs, no wine, no women
No fun, no sin, no you, no wonder it’s dark”
“Everyone around me is a total stranger
Everyone avoids me like a psyched lone-ranger. Everyone.”
