No wonder this Country is going in the tank! (Humor)

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with WHISPERING PINES REALTY 20398180

People talk all the time, but do they really say what they mean.  A lady buys a 'pair' of panties...but just 'one' bra.   When I went to school, "Pair" meant two!

Even our warnings to people don't make sense.  Why is there an expiration date on 'Sour Cream?'   It's already sour!

Our security is upside down...Convenient stores are open 24/7 yet they have locks on the doors.  

Banks have locks, but leave the doors open during business, and then 'chain down' the pens like that is the most valuable thing they have in that building.

We drive in a 'Parkway', and 'Park' in a driveway.     No wonder some homes look like this!

With all this confusion in our country...it is no wonder we are going into the tank!

This is cute and makes sense.  Love a sense of humor.  It makes life's up and down's tolerable.

Bill...these sound like the old stand up routine of George Carlin...Jumbo Shrimp and if the black box survives a crash why don't they build the whole plane out of the same stuff?
