Brilliant satire! This is hilarious. Thanks for posting. A favorite line...
"America is more divided than ever, along every spectrum possible," lamented Studebaker, a retired poetry teacher and underwater origami instructor. "We've divided ourselves along ethnic,color, religious, and economic lines, and these checkout lane dividers are a symbol of that division. We have to start with the small things sometimes and work our way up. It's time we say 'enough with the divisions.' It's time we put a stop to grocery checkout lane dividers."

It’s a sign of how screwed-up it is here that I didn’t automatically dismiss this as a joke.

The liners help the clerks separate purchases. It’s not about protecting our “turf”. If you’ve purchased groceries without them frequently items from another order will be rung up with yours and they’ll have to go back and remove them...that is if anyone notices what has happened until they get home.

which would ban the inanimate objects in all grocery store lanes in California If this were in effect, half the people wouldn't be allowed to stand in line....

" What the hell is a checkout lane devider? "
It separates ( oh my, the horror, separation, segregation ) costumers foods and groceries so they won't get mixed up and the cashier won't charge you or the other person for the items you or they picked up in the market.

It's those plastic or wood 16 inch by 1 " square sticks that go between costumers items on the checkout belt.

HAGS, nothing better to do with their lives than to not only make their lives unbearable to live, but, make anyone else around them unbearable and miserable to live and be around with.

” according to California State Assembly Member Nancy Skinner (DBerkeley) who last week proposed the Checkout Line Integration Act (AB 909) in the State Assembly, which would ban the inanimate objects in all grocery store lanes in California.”
Isn’t the rabid barking moonbat that runs ‘Demonrat underground’ named Nancy Skinner? lol.

Well, IC, you are in luck. Melody and Henrietta are picketing today at the Marina Safeway in San Francisco. I hope you can join them.

You say walls keep people out but if you really think about it, aren’t they really keeping you in?

" Partner? Is she in a law firm? Seriously, get a life ladies."
That's the point, they have no life, they are old hags who have nothing better in life to do than to make everyone else miserable.

Looks like a badly tuned Cummins to me. The only time one needs to see black smoke is when you are in the range of horsepower where you have to run extra fuel to keep the cylinder cool....
This will eventually severely soot up the turbocharger and reduce overall vehicle performance.
And as Anti-Global Warming as I am (100% anti), I think it’s poor form to spray diesel exhaust in anyone’s face.

Not only that, houses have walls to , well, to keep the roof on , you know, protection from the elements like rain, unless ? liberals want us to live in caves ?
And that brings us to another point, Liberal women ( the NOW hags ) complain that men want to bring women's rights and lives back to the caveman days, but yet ? they ? the liberals ? want to bring society back to the lifestyle of the caveman cave habitation, go figure ? Liberalism is truly, TRULY a mental disorder.
