Thread Name: BS: America's Most Distrusted Minority
Subject: RE: BS: America's Most Distrusted Minority
I s'pose this is drift, but:
I started on a job about 15 years ago, and soon found that a high percent of my co-workers were very open and proud about the fact that they were high a high percent of the time. One morning a couple who both worked there came in complaining that they had bought some pot after work the day before, but it was so lame that it did nothing for them. Then things got really weird: one co-worker after another began to sympathize with them, in all sincerity, about their misfortune. I really think if there were sympathy cards tailored to the situation, they would have gotten a pile. Finally, I sat there and said, "It's really a shame; if you can't trust your pusher, who can you trust". One single young man, an avid druggy but with some working brain cells left, looked up at me and smirked because he got it. The rest of them took me at face value.
Anyhow, if you can't distrust an atheist, who can you distrust?
