(3,502 posts)It leads to obesity, diabetes, is a gateway drug to heroin, and sends a jingoistic message. And it's sexist! It's always MOM and apple pie. You never hear DAD and apple pie. And that's just scratching the surface.

(4,833 posts)By the time I got back from doing that, I was tagged for jury duty over in GD. A place that into which I rarely venture. After which I always wonder why I ever thought the level of discourse over there would ever improve.
Anyway, the jury duty involved some pissing contest involving Sr Chavez, and who could be "leftier than thou" in arguing over his demise. Sigh.
I may make this a short evening.

(3,502 posts)I got jury duty on one of the meta threads. That was early this morning I think. The thread is still going hot and heavy, btw. I should be safe from Chavez threads for tonight then.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
