Green my ass

I've had enough of Green. Green with a capital G. The Green Party, Green homes and Green energy and Green jobs. They even went so far as to hire Tom Green for the Green channel's game show.

It's insulting to the American people. It's an oversimplification of biblical proportions. Green is Good. Red must be bad.....k lemme check....yup. it is. Pinkos are Red, china is Red, debt is Red. It is a derivative of the retarded election coverage, I'm sure. Red States, Blue States, gray states. What color do you identify with? Are you living a Green lifestyle?

I will not be wearing any green this St Patty's day as a protest to this mindfuckery.

also,
don't forget......

We had a saying as kids:
Your ass is grass.

I'm letting the water faucet run needlessly for the next ten minutes just to screw with everyone.

I was wondering about it too. I think "and I'm a lawn mower" came later. I always thought it had something to do with being on the ground or trampled or something. Maybe it was just a good rhyme for 8 year olds.

IIRC the phrase "your ass is grass and I'm the lawnmower" is used by Sgt-Mjr Dickerson in Good Morning Vietnam.

See if you can find an entry for "Your taint is paint and I'm the brush."
