Anyone drowning in a red state.

[BreakfastClub]

15. I've always lived in a red state. I'm so used to it that I

wouldn't know how to act if I actually lived around other progressives. People in my area tend to think everyone is right wing, just like them, so when they start talking to me as if I naturally agree with them, I just nod and smile. This is an especially good skill to learn when it's your dentist or someone working on your house, etc., who is spouting right wing nonsense. My dentist is great and does excellent work, so I ignore the fact that Fox news is blaring in his waiting room and that he makes "funny" little right wing quips while doing my teeth. For some reason, you can't find a liberal dentist around here. They are overwhelmingly right wing and seem to all have on Fox news. Yep, that's the kind of mindset that I live around.
