Only In America

From Laugh Lines at the New Yorkt Times:

Only in America can a 46-year-old black man who just finished paying off his student loans be called “elitist,” a 60-year-old woman who with her husband has earned $100 million dollars call herself “middle class,” and a 71-year-old man who has received government paychecks his entire adult life call himself an “outsider.”

–- Janice Hough, Palo Alto, Calif.

The above is so sadly true. It’s also hilariously funny if you’ve the right mindset to appreciate it.

    It’s not funny “ha-ha.” It’s funny, “Oh my God.”

    tafka pb, I said you had to be in “the right mindset to appreciate it.” I find that cynicism mixed with fatalism works very well. LOL
