  1. Major Major's father was a sober God-fearing man whose idea of a good joke was to lie about his age. He was a long-limbed farmer, a God-fearing, freedom-loving, law-abiding rugged individualist who held that federal aid to anyone but farmers was creeping socialism. He advocated thrift and hard work and disapproved of loose women who turned him down. His specialty was alfalfa, and he made a good thing out of not growing any. The government paid him well for every bushel of alfalfa he did not grow. The more alfalfa he did not grow, the more money the government gave him, and he spent every penny he didn't earn on new land to increase the amount of alfalfa he did not produce. Major Major's father worked without rest at not growing alfalfa. On long winter evenings he remained indoors and did not mend harness, and he sprang out of bed at the crack of noon every day just to make certain that the chores would not be done. He invested in land wisely and soon was not growing more alfalfa than any other man in the county. Neighbors sought him out for advice on all subjects, for he had made much money and was therefore wise. “As ye sow, so shall ye reap,” he counseled one and all, and everyone said, “Amen."

  3. Octopus is Greek so the plural in English is either octopuses or octopodes (nuts). "Octopii" is a false latinization.

  15. 1 hour time changes seem to fuck with me more than flying halfway around the world. really don't know why texas has to be subjected to DST (again, people in austin's clocks are now set 2 hours ahead of their geographic time zone's) because some people in minnesota might have the sun come up at 4:30 am for a couple of weeks otherwise. their ancestors came from fucking sweden and the sun comes up there even earlier with 18 and a half hours of daylight.
  16. we already have an external revenue service, it's the C part of CBP before that roosevelt fucker ruined america with trust busting and national parks and safe food and drugs
  17. RTO combined with the doge committee asking if agencies can be moved out of austin to save on rent seems about right for our dumb leadership
