Yes! On a job years ago, my biz partner and I took a ride outside of Asheville NC and kept seeing those signs for "boiled peanuts". I couldn't wait to taste this delicious southern treat, so I bought a bag out of a local gentleman's trunk… yuk. "old socks" does not do justice to the mooshy awfulness of those morsels of nut-like rankness.

I just had them for the first time a few months ago. They weren't awful, tastes exactly how you'd think they would. Mushy peanuts. I'll take a pass from here on.

"OHMIGOD, you guys, I totes remember from way, way back then, when that Saddam Huessien dude, like, did 9/11 under Obama's (and they have, like the same last name too, jinx!) watch, but then that Rudy Julie Ana guy or something became "America's mayor" and helped us all by shoving more nightsticks up more black people's rectums! Yeah that was, like, a totally good year! Aww, nostalgia."

Well, shoot! My grandfather kept a bundle of confederate moolah notes in hopes the South Would Rise Again! I was hoping to unload it onto some dumb redneck collectors and make some liberal campaign contributions. Shoot!

We need us a good climber who can get up the flagpole outside the Mississippi statehouse. Instead of bringing the flag down, just take a lighter along for the trip.

It's like they're scared West Virginia is going to take their title of "worst state in the union"

Why the eff would you ever go to Mississippi if no for the racism ?

Isn't the more overriding factor there that Trump is an opportunistic disingenuous liar?

So the bottom line is, Mississippi doesn't care that the Confederate flag is a negation of everything that America stands for. They want to own a symbol of treason, slavery, segregation and hatred? Fine, then they also own treason, slavery, segregation and hatred. Too bad.

Well, a yougov/economist poll found that a fifth of Trump's supporters want to restore Black slavery... http://www.vox.com/2016/2/2...
