This is something the GOP loves to trot out: an example that’s kinda sorta technically true, if you squint.

“And as with every other issue, we’re choosing to intentionally ignore scientific consensus.”

A friend of mine insists on mispronouncing it. I’ve taken to referring to Reese’s Pieces as “Reesies Piecies” whenever she does so, to point out how little sense she’s making. It... hasn’t worked, sadly.

“And Jesus wept, for there were no more worlds to conquer.”

Ah, that does make sense that they’d be the cheapest to buy into. I’m confused about them allowing so many franchises to cannibalize each other, but apparently it’s working for them.

Wow, I’m thinking all those Starbucks jokes from several years ago should have been about Subway instead.

I’d rather have multiple places to get Chinese food instead of multiple places to get the same mediocre sandwich, but that’s way too close. I mean, that sounds like a plot to a ‘90s sitcom or something.

*sigh* Well, live and let live, I guess. I’d rather just make my own, better sandwich, but people are free to go buy what they want.

Wha.. Wait, what? There should be a law against that nonsense.

OK, you win. That’s beyond ridiculous.

That’s just... horribly unnecessary. Who would look at a town with that population and think, “You know, two Subways aren’t enough.” I can’t fathom how someone thought that was a good idea.

That... actually seems like a plausible scenario here.

They’re just different versions of the same FOX FemBot model, right?

Subways are fucking everywhere and there doesn’t seem to be anything we can do about it.

Which, really, is terrible. He’s been sitting at that level for a long while, which means he’s so inept at economics and business as to be unable to make money when he has billions to use for investments. That’s laughably pathetic for someone running solely on their financial credentials.

He has the largest, most luxurious group of yes men that god has ever created.

Similar systems seem to work out pretty well in places that go that route. I think it would be very difficult at this point to get the US to adopt those policies, but it’s a change that would be worth fighting for.

I don’t even eat tuna salad without chips any more. My favorite flavor to use is sour cream and onion.

Too late; Donald Trump already used Rockin’ in the Free World to announce his candidacy.

He’s basically the living embodiment of a Citation Needed footnote on Wikipedia.
