Ok, can’t make this up. Most mornings when I take the train downtown I am on with an unreconstucted hippie woman. She gets most of her news through, ‘High Times”, “Mother Jones” & “The daily Show”
She is good people but way out there. Today she said that she does not wish to live past the year 2016 beacuse Obama will be out of office then.
She went on to amuse all in ear shot when she said, ‘This just figures, a Black man has to come in & clean up the Whire Man’s mess.”
Nobody even disagrees anymore . it’s useless.

Ugh. It’s like a mental illness. Best case scenario - no one disagreed with her because they didn’t want to engage her in conversation. I mean, did you spark up a conversation with her about it? Exactly. No one else did either. When she told you she didn’t want to live past 2016 you should have said, do you promise?
