Your Daily Dose of Ignorance

  • Greg: i already had a conversation with a girl at work
  • Greg: mind you she's a waitress, has two kids
  • Greg: is like 25
  • Greg: she says "Oh, I hate Obama"
  • Greg: so rather than argue i say
  • Greg: "why do you hate him?" curious as to how anyone of our generation could hate him
  • Greg: "Well you know he was a muslim"
  • Greg: "No, he wasn't"- me
  • Greg: "Well, on his website it says that he wants to only tax white people"
  • Greg: "I haven't heard about that, but I can guaranfuckingtee you thats not true"
  • Greg: especially because he's half white
  • Greg: so he'd be taxing himself
  • Greg: "I don't know he just scares me."
  • Greg: "Because he's black?"- me
  • Greg: "No, just something about him."
  • Greg: "No, its cause he's black"- me
  • Greg: people are so fucking stupid
  • Greg: I've said it twice but i think i mean it this time
  • Greg: if this country fucks this one up
  • Greg: i seriously might be done
  • A NITPICK ... what does her being a waitress with 2 kids have to do with anything? Being a waitress does not mean you are uninformed or dumb. Granted, her comments support that, but still, that's not an important factor in her views. Plus, having 2 kids at the age of 25 means nothing either. People have kids early, it doesn't necessarily mean they're ignorant. That comment smacks of ... guess what! elitism! Like, you can just disregard and dismiss her opinions because of her station and circumstances in life. She's a 25-year-old waitress with 2 kids -- I say good for her for supporting her children! Goddamn.
  • Also, we prefer to be called "servers".
