Burt and Ernie: Flush 'em Friday: The 8 12 11 Edition

Happy Flush 'em Friday to you one and all! It is time to announce those worthy of a good old whirly twirly. I find these people, things, and ideas annoying and just plain useless. 

• Bill Maher...what a loud mouthed, thinks he is funny, has been.

• People who want Burt and Ernie to get married...actually people who even conceive a such nonsense. Just because YOU think or believe something doesn't mean everyone needs to hear it, let alone agree with it or believe it! Liberals need to stay out of my child's mind!

• Planned "non" parenthood for using my money to manipulate women into committing crimes against themselves and their children.

• Borders and others stores who are going out of business and advertise 25% off as a going out of business price. I can do better than that at Overstock.com. 

• Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke because he proves the saying, "Those who can't, teach."

•  The shrinking amount of chips in a potato chip bag.

• French fries without salt.

• Non-fat anything.

• Vegan self-righteousness...it's just a food choice...

• People who cut in front of me and then drive slower...

That's all folks!

I WANT TO HEAR YOUR FLUSHIES!

48 out of 51

I’ve always thought most other people on the road really don’t know how to drive and now I have data to back me up! Before anyone gets all high & mighty and self-righteous on me, so do you. Admit it, you know you do. How many times have you been cut-off by some knucklehead driving with a cell phone in his hand talking or TEXTING, and oblivious to all others around them? How about the nitwit who just sticks his arm out the window and changes lanes without even looking? Which is worse, the driver who turns left with the blinker on right or the guy who doesn’t even use the blinker? Then there is my personal favorite, the “polite” dufus at the four-way stop who, although it is clearly their turn to go waves someone else across and messes up the flow of traffic. Not helpful, just stupid!

My local fish wrap presented the evidence of my inner convictions. GMAC Insurance made public that California was 48^th out of 50 states plus the District of Columbia on a test of 20 multiple choice questions. I’m just surprised that we weren’t dead last.

The kicker in the whole deal is that my insurance is higher because I’m driving with idiots.

Thus saith me.
