President's Day and AZQuotes.Com - Two Pointless Wastes of Time

February 17th is "PRESIDENTS DAY." The point? To shut down the schools so the kids won't learn about Lincoln or Washington or anything else. The banks are closed. The public libraries are closed JUST in case somebody wanted to take out a book. The reason for the shut-down is...well...the New York POST will tell you:

The New York Post used to be a newspaper. Now they're more of a pennysaver, saving pennies for themselves. They make pennies any time somebody buys crap via a hot link on their site...including these "infomercial" articles. They need the money to offset the fact that few people are literate anymore, and most get what little news they read via FREE websites and blogs that re-write the facts others spent weeks and months to obtain.

Most monkeys get all they need from what is "trending" on Twitter -- and Twitter gives them the chance to cheep-cheep, howl, or bray their idiot opinions on who should be BOYCOTTED or FIRED based on something probably misquoted if said at all.

What would happen if this quote appeared on Twitter? Most would believe it:

Of course it's fake. I Photoshopped it myself. But who really cares what's factual anymore? "I was informed" is not as important as "I was entertained."

The AZQUOTES site and other parasite sites routinely swipe stuff and/or attribute quotes incorrectly. In honor of PRESIDENTS DAY, here's an example:

I saw this quote on Facebook, and it was posted by some middle-aged guy who should've known better. So you can imagine how easly the average Millennial DUDE can be tricked. Right, right, Abe Lincoln talks like a sk-8-terboy from Oregon. "Rottenness" surely must've been in the Gettysburg Address somewhere, too. "Hey, look at this battlefield. The war was fierce! I'm stepping in rottennness!"

Steve Allen's word is "dumbth," and sadly, it doesn't merely involve pop culture atrocities like the continued worship of Kardashians and Jenners, the mindless devotion to Marvel comic book movies, endless sequels involving The Joker, the continued tediousness of rap, or the booming laughtrack on garbage sitcoms. It involves people who don't know how to think for themselves, don't question what they are told, and are gullible to anything from moronic memes to sing-song jackasses from Sri Lanka or Pakistan calling them up and saying "I am with your bank, tell us your social security number and password, we have had a glitch."

Of course, Abraham Lincoln and the founding fathers never thought the day would come when a president would be a crook and conniver who blatantly engages in corrupt and immoral activity to the delight of his pinhead followers and the embarrassment of the Republican party (which once supported HONEST ABE). Talk about ROTTENNESS, and you're talking about the current president, the former "reality show" TV idiot who went bankrupt with his stinking casinos and his evil "university" and so many creepy business ventures. The one who has a record for stiffing contractors who helped him build his grotesque apartments with his name all over them. The one who routinely name-calls his (many) enemies, clowns around during speeches by making faces and telling bad jokes, and who engages in blatant racism and lethal denial of climate change. The one who spawned a grubby pair of twits who are proud of shooting down wildlife at gutless "canned kill" events. The one who makes "Presidents Day" the perfect day for buying a mattress...because everyone is getting fucked.
