Thanks for the diabetes, Jesus

Post by Scooter »

Worshipping at a cross of soda. I shudder to imagine what would happen at a gun store.

I don't know--using the cross, a symbol of execution (with no other uses AFAIK) to sell food is quite strange. What's next, guillotine displays to celebrate Bastille Day?

It’s somewhere in the Bible Belt where crosses are welcome in any and all venues.

Thank you Jesus for high fructose corn syrup and gut dysbiosis!

True--but it reminds me of the old George Carlin joke--if Jesus had been around now [60s/70s] all the kids in catholic school would wear electric chairs around their necks.

At least they're diverse at Roy's grocery store. Over on the left they have a yogurt display for people of other cultures.

Wouldn't that be meant for people who ARE cultured?

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

You mean like people born from in vitro fertilization?
