Contemporary western democracry is a con?
No!
They lied to me!
*cries*
Don’t be daft, our leaders would never lie to us
That would be downright unstatesmanlike
Besides, we voted for them
So they must be acting in our best interests
S’just logical, innit
>>Don’t be daft, our leaders would never lie to us<< >>So they must be acting in our best interests<< You're right. How cynical I have become to ever think otherwise. *switches on TV* *takes tray out of microwave* *cries*
You need to learn how to take those comedowns in advance, ami 🙂
See you on Saturday? Sunday? Once again, I’m excited in any case
> How cynical I have become to ever think otherwise.

I’m seriously debating whether or not I should actually post this really bad comment…

Someone should pour carmel and nugget over it and plop it in front of a grocery store.
(cuz that’s where they sell nuts.)
I made the headline.
