A conversation I had with a Trumper last night...
Him: "I like Mellencamp's music. Sucks he's a stupid liberal Democrat, though."
Me: What's your beef with Democrats?
Him: "Are you a Democrat?"
Me: Yes.
Him: "You need to change your ways."
Me: Why's that?
Him: "You actually like Kamala?"
Me: I do.
Him: "You need to change your ways. She's a communist-Marxist-socialist."
Me: Those terms aren't identical. Do you actually know what they mean?
Him: "Yeah"
Me: Okay, what do they mean?
Him: "What about inflation?"
Me: What about it?
Him: "She had 3.5 years to do something about it, and nothing."
Me: That's not true. First off, she's Vice President, not President. Secondly, she broke the Senate tie to pass the Inflation Reduction Act. Not a single Republican voted for it."
Him: "Yeah, inflation"
Me: Inflation was 9.1% and is 2.9% today.
Him: "That's bullshit. Look it up. Look it up."
Me: :: I look it up ::. Here you are. These are the inflation numbers. June of 2022, it was at 9.1%. In the latest report, it was 2.9%. Those are facts.
Him: "Fake numbers. That's bullshit. What is that, a fake news site?"
Me: It's the U.S. Bureau of Labor.
Him: "Whatever"

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...
