“What was he convicted of?” someone asked.

“He had tattoos on his body,” she replied triumphantly.

“Hey, smartass!” shouted a woman in her sixties, jumping to her feet. “You want to see my tattoo?”

“Lady,” the Trump supporter said. “You don’t know what a tattoo is.”

“Yes I do, I’ve got one!” the woman shouted, tapping her chest.

The Trump supporter dismissed her with a wave of one hand. “I’ve had enough of you Democrats,” she said.

      Americans need to stop thinking joke about state is exclusive to state.

      Instead of Alabama = incest, say America = incest

      Instead of Iowians are idiots, say Americans are idiots

      Instead of Florida man is crazy, say American men are crazy

        I mean, you do realize that the USA is larger than the EU, right? Some US states dwarf multiple European countries - combined.

            That has no bearing in this conversation, nor the point being made. Geographical size plays a large factor in this whether you agree with it or not.

              I’d say geographical size has very little to do with it, unless you think Canada is more diverse because of its size? Population size would probably be a better marker for this purpose.

          yep that one always bugs me. We have no concept of collective responsibility in the US. Our government and its actions are something very abstract we feel no connection to or have any responsibility for. Whose fault is it that we shipped all those bombs used in Gaza? Its seen as not even Joe Bidens fault somehow. Its just no ones fault.

          I appreciate this is a joke but I don’t know what definition of personal responsibility requires me to own the actions of people 2000+ miles away from me lol. London is slightly closer to Moscow than San Francisco is to Northwood, IA.
