46. Not Exactly

Fri Dec 20, 2024, 05:18 PM

Fortunately, we don’t generally have Trump flags or other offensive displays of Trump crap around here. So the finger stays put when I’m driving. The only exception was on election day when a pickup truck sporting four huge Trump flags in the bed and multiple Trump stickers drove into the shopping center that I was in. My jaw dropped.

Having said that, the middle finger gets quite a workout at home on the rare occasions when I still watch the news. It’s reflexive at this point.
