So today, I drove by my neighbors' brand new "Trump/Pence 2020" signs and the even more asinine "Hillary for Prison 2020" sign, complete with a picture of Hillary Clinton with vertical bars drawn over it, that they recently put up in their yard to replace the increasingly ragged Trump 2016 signs that had been there for the past four years.
At first, these signs made me feel pretty enraged, at least for a little while. But then I calmed down a bit and thought about it, and it's like this doesn't reflect anything bad on me, even though they live just a few houses down the road. Those signs do nothing but merely display to the world the fact that those particular neighbors are fucking moronic asshats, that's all. Because for anyone in the year 2020 CE to still support Donald Trump and to think that Hillary Clinton is the one who deserves to go to prison, and for them to actively advertise this by putting up yard signs boasting it, it is objectively impossible for such people to not be fucking moronic asshats.
And that actually almost kind of makes me feel a bit of schadenfreude. But mostly I'm just disgusted to have to see the dumbshit things every time I go by.
