Funny how no Islamist bakery has yet to be shut down for refusing to bake gay wedding cakes.
This is all you need to know. The leftist way is incompatible with justice and liberty.
“Brevity is the soul of wit.”
Brevity is also the soul of emotives.
“Leftists suck”.
“Whites are racist”
“Fascism is bad”
“Make the patriarchy pay”
Wit depends on insight, connecting an assertion to a truth that takes a few moments to see. The obscure, but then obvious connection, once seen, is why wit usually also makes one smile.
In this case – the topic above and its picture….. wit is contained in the simple , two letter word “or” and the subtly altered graphic in support of that word.
Thanks, Aqua
I should have omitted the Bard quote.
Hamlet, Act 2, Scene 2; Polonius to the king and queen regarding Hamlet.
“My liege, and madam, to expostulate
What majesty should be, what duty is,
What day is day, night night, and time is time,
Were nothing but to waste night, day, and time;
Therefore, since brevity is the soul of wit,
And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes,
I will be brief. Your noble son is mad…”
There are instances of humor hidden in the tragedy (in Drama an unhappy ending). I missed them in school. In my wasted youth, oftener I was drinking when I should have been thinking.
T.Shaw – there were more than a few times myself, in college, (and after) when they could have said the same of me “Thy (ig)noble son is mad”.
Leave it to that white bard, Shakespeare, to summarize it all in a few well chosen words.
It isn’t until they try to cancel the poor fellow that we realize his full value, more than just an unwanted elective.
