Hillary Clinton meme in poor taste

I stumbled upon this Hillary Clinton meme on Facebook and thought it was in poor taste: 


I admit I thought the bits about "a rattlesnake with a 'pet me' sign," "a prostate exam from Captain Hook," and to a lesser extent, "Emails from a Nigerian Princess" and "gas station sushi," were humorous, I was taken aback by the references to Ray Rice and Bill Cosby. It's one thing for those whom despise Hillary Clinton to say they don't trust her to lead this country; it's quite another to say they'd trust a man caught on camera punching his girlfriend and a man accused of drugging and raping many women more than former Secretary of State Clinton. That comparison is in incredibly poor taste, especially considering the fact Hillary Clinton is a woman, and every one of Ray Rice and Bill Cosby's alleged victims were women. I may not trust Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, or Marco Rubio to lead this country, but I'm also not going to compare them to Ray Rice in an elevator or Bill Cosby as a bartender.

As a side-note, I found the mentions of "Mexican tap water," "a Jimmy Carter economic plan," and "Brian Williams news reports" unintentionally humorous as well. When reading that, I had to laugh and think, "You mean, Flint tap water (thanks to Republican Governor Rick Snyder), George W. Bush's economic plan, and Fox News reports, right?"

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Trump's Lie Tally at the CNN Debate

1) "We had the greatest economy in the history of our country. We had never done so well. Every – everybody was amazed by it. Other countries were copying us." 2) "But the thing we never got the credit for, and we should have, is getting us out of that COVID mess." 3) "The only jobs he created are for illegal immigrants and bounceback jobs; they’re bounced back from the COVID." 4) "Not going to drive them higher. It’s just going to cause countries that have been ripping us off for years, like China and many others, in all fairness to China – it’s going to just force them to pay us a lot of money, reduce our deficit tremendously, and give us a lot of power for other things." (tariffs) 5) "He also said he inherited 9 percent inflation." 6) "No, he inherited almost no inflation and it stayed that way for 14 months. And then it blew up under his leadership, because they spent money like a bunch of people that didn’t know what t...
