Lychee mojitos taste bad
I have never tried a mojio before, but they are basically coffee soda. Which is bad, and worse if you have no sugar. Never again.

“Let’s privatize the fire department”
Libertarians and Randians say stupid shit like this.
So many of America’s problems can be traced back to Ronald Reagan. He made the echo chambers where where people get indoctrinated into rigid political tribes. Where is the national consensus anymore?
Reddit hearsay: christianity causes funeral brawl
I have no idea whether it’s true, our embellished, or all made up, but it’s funny. Christian’s do often take funerals so seriously in the South that it’s possible fist fights occur over religion.
