Good thing I went to town and bought everything we needed - TODAY! This isn’t going to change a thing.

I just got my EOM check. I’m paying bills tonight, and I’ll buy some food tomorrow morning after my neuropathy treatment. I’m going back to the stricter diet for my diabetes. My wife cooked some pretty good meals for my sons, but it shot my numbers to hell.

I think she understands. Two days ago, it was 180+ before dinner. Last night before dinner, it was 111. I don’t expect anyone to adopt my regimen.

[hinckley buzzard]

Not sure who the moron was who said that, but guaranteed s/he wasn’t even born in the 60s.

Remember—No Starbucks!

As if they think I’ll cooperate, lol. They can FO, after calling me a fascist Nazi. They can KMA.

[Night Hides Not]

Lol I saw that too.

As rush used to talk about, this kind of boycott is stupid. Like a day not to buy gas to “stick” it to the man. Solves nothing just means more gas is bought the next day.

But please libs, keep this up

“The People’s” anything = communist

Extension of TDS.

Endured it from 2 people feeding off each other’s rage today.

White woman that went berzerk once before. Normally nice.

Called her a Karen once and she looked it up and denied it.

And a man thinking this is DIE’s revenge.

Funny how they raise their voices all of a sudden.

Ive had my eyes on a new Taylor Made Fairway 3 wood. About $350 but it may help and tomorrow seems like a good excuse to get it.......good thing my wife doesn’t read FR. Cool....

[Salman]

They’ve got good PR because I’ve seen this story from several different sources, but I predict the effect on anybody’s business will be negligible. We’ll see.

[dljordan]

All hail the spontaneous people’s boycott! Forward!

[Republican Wildcat]

I had some purchases to make - I’ll wait until tomorrow to proceed with this now.

[ChildOfThe60s]

Apparently the word fungible is no longer in the dictionary.
The stupid, it hurts

[FlingWingFlyer]

I’ve been out shopping all day wearing my new “I Don’t Care Margaret”. Hardly anyone out there shopping. I guess they are waiting for payday tomorrow. It’s gonna be a RAT Race out there.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Black faith leaders are calling for a 40-day “fast.”

Cool!! On average, a person can go about 1 to 2 months without eating, as long as they’re still getting water.

So we should start to seem them dropping like flies by Day 40.

[shadeaud]

I was going to buy four tires for my gas guzzler on Saturday, but I guess I will just have to spend the $1500 tomorrow and the fill up the hungry gas tank with high test on the way to to buy sod for the yard

[gibsonguy]

No one is even going to know this is happening.

[Maskot]

I hope they’re packed!

[LegendHasIt]

John Schwarz, Huh?

I wonder if this guy is related to György Schwartz.
