Like parents that reassure a kid that he's special and perfect no matter what and anything he does is worthwhile even if he screws it up or does a half-assed job. Those kids / Americans then are headed for a shock upon encountering the real world / remaining portion of Earth.

I felt an urge to remove the red ones from the box they'd always known, throw them on a foreign surface and tell them to deal with it.

Today we're all jelly beans and part of the all-you-can-eat buffet that is America.

I'm especially looking forward to learning Ben Quayle has enjoyed some of those Mexican "jumping" jelly beans. And tasting those made-in-China lead-flavored beans. And of course when he swallows a few gay beans.

RR is dead. But his legacy still keeps screwing us. He is an everlasting boner.
