The collective outpouring of admiration for a young alleged assassin points to a gaping void in American politics.

    I feel like many people are secretly hoping for a refresher. Nobody just wants to say it out loud.

            Ayup, just couldn’t think of a witty caption so I invoked the Spirit of the Meme.

              It’s interesting how memes took on different meanings depending on the community you were in when you initially saw it. Some of them are pretty globally recognized, and others are more vague.

              I wonder how older ones will transform in a decade or so.

                Overly attatched girlfriend just looks like a cute girl. Meanwhile the little girl who burned down that house is going to college. Reminding you just how old you are.

      Someone should do a second CEO assassination but this time maybe the oil industry so they know that no CEO is safe.

          Big Casket is ripping people off with their over priced coffins.

            This was already famously a problem back in the times of The Lebowski
