Whenever someone has to say that a joke isn’t funny, it usually is.

I give it a 7.5 on the funny bone meter. Mild knee slap, soft chuckle.

You hear about these reported ‘suspicious objects’ being neutralized by robots or ordinance teams. I don’t want to know what it cost in dollars to neutralize freaking garbage or crap that people left behind. Like a bottle wrapped with duct tape on the side of the road. Oh my what is that thing….its a bottle wrapped with duct tape on the side of the road.

How often does someone try and blow up a bathroom……NEVER. Once upon a time when people saw something suspicious they called it what it was, some freaking garbage. How did we get to the point in our society that we look at anything odd as a potential threat that requires an all clear from a highly skilled team of neutralizers? I wonder how many Pringles cans get neutralized every year at taxpayer expense.

Last time I remember crap exploding randomly on the street it was carried out by two evil mofos who the fbi was warned about by the russians.
