General Discussion

Oh, I wish that I could find that particular meme! Instead, here is an article which spotlights the shared norm of finding sewing supplies in the iconic blue container.

It is one of those experiences that people can bond over in countless countries. Sort of like being able to give a simple answer like, " a sunny day", or "the laughter of children" or even, "my first cup of coffee in the morning" when someone asks you, "What makes you smile?"

J.D. Vance, however, takes the question as a personal attack. I could understand it if he were the lonely widower from Up. But, damn, J.D., you're a freaken' politician! Try harder! Even Bernie Sanders know how to weave a little levity into his general mien of curmudgeon-ness. Any when Bernie does get riled up, it's over important things, such as how economic policies affect people's lives.

(Also, future historians will discover that the first person to store sewing supplies in Royal Dansk cookie tins was Bernie Sanders' mother. )
