MEME vs. A particularly disgusting western joke...
After this post, I'm going to attempt to drop this whole gun debate...Sometimes I say things or point them out because they're interesting enough for a few posts, but not a never-ending debate. Second, 3 on 1 may be fun in other instances, but in a debate it is not only too time-consuming, but a bit overwhelming.
Reminds me of a little tale my momma once told me...
The town drunk goes into the town saloon and points at the spittoon.
"Gimme a drink o' Ol' RedEye," he slurs, "or 'um gonna drink thet whole damn spittoon right heah in fron' o' ya!"
"Yeah, right," says the barkeep, and continues to polish beer glasses.
The drunk bends down and, without hesitation, begins gulping down the contents of said spittoon.
"Holy mother of shit! Okay! OKAY! OKAY, DAMMIT, YOU CAN HAVE A DRINK!!!!
The drunk continues to gulp down the contents of the spittoon...
"YOU GODDAM DISGUSTIN' SONOFABITCH! I SAID YUHS COULD HAVE A DRINK!!! NOW, CUT IT OUT!!! YER MAKIN' ME SICK!!!"
Drunk continues to drink...
Barkeep comes out from behind bar, drops to knees, and begs:
"PLEASE, PLEASE, PUH-LEASE!! STOP DRINKIN' THAT!!"
Drunk drops spittoon and wipes chin. Barkeep rushes to back of bar and pours drunk a drink.
"Why 'n' the hell dincha stop when I said I'd give ya drink?"
"Fact is," sez the drunk, "once I got started, et was all jes' one big strand..."
Be advised, next time you pick up the spittoon, m'Lady!
