Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Sit on this

Sunday morning.  This is the last day of my work week.  Tomorrow I start my Jury Duty.  I'm so excited... well, that may not be precisely the exact work.  I've never actually sat on a jury though I have endured the selection process.  A very tedious time was had by all.  Evidently there are classes for attorneys which help them profile potential jurors.  I learned last time that frowning at the prosecuting attorney pretty much sets your course towards rejection, of course, the opposite is also true.  As cynical as I am, I will no doubt grimace several times.  This is what happens when you work in retail and constantly deal with customers who just out and out lie.
And I do know about customers.  Yesterday I rather robust woman stopped by the flooring desk.  She was looking for a specific Dyson, a $700 Dyson, and while we carry that particular vacuum online, it is not in the store.  That was not what she wanted to hear.  She gave me a salty little sneer and said "Well, I guess I'm going to have to go to Lowes."  She thought she was jamming a nasty little barb into my retail heart, having to go to a competitor.  She failed.  Customers regularly use this threat when they we don't carry what they're looking for... like a purple toilet seat.  We usually smile and say "go right ahead."

Not in our store
Now I'm sure the Idiot Jerk in the White House has something like this... though probably in gold.  Can't you just picture something all sparkling under his ass?
We may get an inkling or two from the Mueller investigation today.  I know some were a little peeved that there were no more forthcoming indictments.  Let's be honest here, you can't indict someone for being a dumb fuck, which is the perfect description of not only the Idiot Jerk, but of his spawn as well.  They're loud, and they're vulgar, and all of them have an IQ on par with being a cretin.  As either Donnie Jr, or Eric a question and their first response is a vacant stare.
The first reader is going to get "The Body in the Tower" today.  She will also get a highlighter and an ink pen.  Her job is to look for things that don't quite jive in the continuity of the story line, to ensure I haven't strayed into some strange little literary tangent having nothing to do with subject, or where the exposition becomes overtly flowery.

  2. The Mueller report may just tell us what we already know: that _____ is an asshat. What do we do with that?
    And for those in the GOP who think this means no more indictments, remember that Mueller has passes parts of his investigations on to other jurisdictions.

    1. That is pretty much what it showed. The word of the hour is 'inconclusive.'

  3. I won't relax to elections. And then if for some reason the dumb shits of the country elect him again and he wins....I don't know what I'll do then. I may just have to take my friend up on a 8 year visit to Europe. I jest of course, I think?

    1. If, by some odd chance, he survives the re-election process, he will fail. We, as a country, can not be that morally corrupt.
