:lol: Good timing. :D

Great minds think alike...

Emergency! Gotta take a dump but a taxi is picking me up in 10!


SHIIIIIT
On my hike this morning, I saw an Asian dude running in jeans and a collared dress shirt. Now in the more Chinese parts of town, you do see some of the oddest choices in exercise wear... so I kind of dismissed it.

Then I saw the dude bolt for the men's room in the park and heard the ensuing explosions some 200 meters away. It all made sense then.

Good luck in your taxi, sir.

So a guy who works in my building is a complete Libertarian. He drives a large pickup truck with Libertarian stickers all over it, and he's given me the occasional speech in the parking lot. We don't talk much. But here's the thing... he can be a bit proselytizing at times. I've actually shown support for the concept of having libertarian opinion -- in theory -- if nothing else to keep the other two puppets of the two-party system here more honest.

In our latest parking lot latest exchange, he points out that my car is pretty dirty. Not caked, mind you, but I don't wash it regularly. For one, I hate cars -- I still drive a '92 Nissan Sentra. For another, it's California: we're in the driest time of year, and in a massive drought where you should conserve wasted water anyway. So I tell him my car's dirty because I'm conserving water. (Half true, I'm also lazy.)

So he gets out these no-water cleaning sprays to show me from the back of his truck, etc., telling me I don't need water to wash my car. And I tell him, "I thought you were a Libertarian." He's like, "Well of course..." blah blah blah. So then I ask, "So then why are you telling me how I should live my life?"

He says something along the lines of how you don't have to be a libertarian to point out that I'm driving a dirty car. So I tell him, "So being a libertarian means everyone should have the freedom to choose their own way of living their lives ... just as long as you agree with it, right?" He kinda slammed his car door and drove off.

Fucking Libertarians can be as bad control freaks as anyone else. At least admit it. :andyandbarcelona:

You seriously had that political argument over washing a car or not?
Well, it dawned on me that here's this guy who openly prides himself on being a Libertarian, yet he more than anyone else around where I work sticks his nose into other people's business for how they go about their daily lives.

I thought about that. :p
