Armageddon creeped me out

I get creeped out by Escape From LA’s USA theocratic government.

Oh how I laughed in 1996…

Once I flew to a friend’s graduation party down in Pittsburg, PA. We overbought liquor and had a few leftovers I decided to bring home while packing quickly. In my carry on I had an almost-full magnum of vodka and a big bottle of zippo lighter fluid (kerosene).

After I landed, got home, and sobered up, I realized i’d been carrying a motolov cocktail on a plane.

But your toenail clipper got confiscated?

I thought Tolkien’s The Two Towers was in reference to the WTC, where the forces of Sauron and Saruman represented the US and UK and the Fellowship and their allies represented the oppressed arabs fighting to rid the world of “The Great Satan.”

But then I found out Tolkien wrote it way before 9/11. Like before I was born.

Mind. Blown.
