The Infinite Monkey
Welp. I have to agree with mope, the dope, the big taco. There are too many holidays. I'm sure the people who get eleven paid holidays off enjoy the perks. I just think it's a waste of money, my tax money which allows government employees to take a day off on our dime. Naturally, I don't like what Trumper was referring to when he made his complaint, then jetted off to Mar-A- Lago for another million plus dollar weekend. He'd like to replace Juneteenth with Trumpteenth and have a massive "perade" every year.
I've worked many jobs, some with wonderful special benefits like monthly restaurant outings, expensive chocolate, sporting tickets- to having to sit in a dank and dirty machine shop on the 4th of July.
Let's talk about that religious holiday when the streets are as quiet as a zombie movie. Everything closed except for a Chinese restaurant or bagel shop. People of different religions or no religion at all must partake in the shenanigans as well.
I say we limit the amount of paid holidays to five a year, and everyone gets to choose which holiday they want to celebrate.
I know, it will never happen because our economy runs on people buying balloons, elves on shelves, grills, coolers, hotdogs and firecrackers.
That is why we have holidays- and to distract us from the realization we are drones, working endlessly to keep the cogs greased and rolling.
I do not like when I agree with the orange man, but there it is. Out of his thousand upon thousand of inane thoughts swirling in that head, some thought has to make sense even when it's made in cruelty.
