Mar a Largo

Post by Mike Sales »

Am I evil for hoping Hurricane Dorian wipes out Trump's Florida resort?
It might help convince him that Climate Change is not a Chinese plot and even that the situation is urgent.

Hi there, That is a "Key" question? Geddit, Florida Keys!
Can't expect rib tickling stuff with the inadequate material I have to work with.

There is a very good reason for asking for some evidence. Without it, people could just make anything up and post it as truth either to support their point of view or simply to cause mayhem.

Yebbut alternative facts are new! improved! People get bored of the old-fashioned facts in consumerland. Where can I buy a new fact-frock, with outlandish cut and garish clash-colours?

Anyroadup, everyone has a right to their own opinion, even if the implementation of the opinions means no rights for anyone else. And the best opinions are them tough baldy-bloke ones; or the ones with a tuft of slick-hair on the top and a savage scrape around the back & sides. That'll show the snowflakes they should keep quiet!

Aye well, the insurance-fraud opportunity passed by on t'other side and even missed Alabimbo as well, Sharpies notwithstanding.

Now, about those bedbugs...

Why? They've chosen to take the Trump shilling or whatever the US equivalent is - don't they have something called a dyme?

I was thinking of the immigrant Mexican cleaners paid as little as he can can get away with.
The management would no doubt have got out in time.

Death is probably preferable to working for Trump on a starvation wage.

Well whatever they call it. No idea how they spell it. I know a lot more about zloty, groschen, lev, stotinki etc than US currency.

A song by The Fugs has infected my ears.

If I had a nickel, if I had a dime,
I'd stick it in the door and sh1t all the time

If I was a hurricane and after Trumpington's talk of nuking hurricanes and as he does have "the button" I'd avoid Mara Largo. Maybe bypass the place on my way to Alabama.
