I gave a homeless guy a box today to sleep in...
I figured since he didn't have one, that it would work very well for him.

1. I'm sure he wouldn't know any better so it does not matter.

8. no, it really wasn't
but honest to Gawd, that is how the equivalent of how the former first lady prefaced her now infamous comment:

"And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this--this (she chuckles slightly) is working very well for them."

5. Was it a deluxe, reinforced heavy extra-corrugated one? Because you
know that if Jeb ** can pony up a crisp $20 bill for relief efforts, the least you can do is spring for the best in boxes.

6. I wish you would stop these handouts
those people don't learn how to be self-sufficient when you promote these socialist policies.

7. A choir or republican angels
are singing praise in hell because of your generosity. Might I ask how large a tax write-off you're claiming?

9. And now
your beautiful mind feels oh so much better. He is out of sight and it is most likely the most wonderful place he has had to live but tomorrow be certain he does not stay.

OMG this is just so sad.

10. You might want to kick him to see if he's still alive
Tacky joke, but that's how it feels with the repukes. They'll just kick a couple of times to see if they're still alive. :eyes:

I'm tired and feeling rather tacky right now.

11. Was it a refrigerator box?
If so, I hope it wasn't Maytag, which is made in Mexico and probably uses substandard cardboard. Whirlpool, Amana, General Electric or Kenmore are OK. They still manufacture in the USA.
