That is the problem. Most of the people you know probably share most of your values. This is pretty common. People tend to define their view of the world through their perspective. It is why New York and California think they know what is best for Georgia and Nebraska (and why Nebraska and Georgia think California and New York would be doing better if they just did things the way they're done in Nebraska and Georgia.)
It gets crazy granular, too. Black people in California think they can relate to black people in Chicago - and their culture and experiences are only superficially similar. I went to school with a black kid from Chicago for a while, and he could not get along with the black kids from California, and they didn't like him - which is why he ended up hanging out with all the white stoners.
We're doomed.

Most people i know, are not like that.
As I've said before ... the problem with institutionalizing an extreme affluential divide is that eventually the Morlocks begin eating the Eloi.
I agree... and I hear the Gates family tastes just like pork.
Hopefully I'll remember what pork tastes like when we test this theory out.

Its ok, we will have Soylent Green to eat and can wash it down with Brawndo

I might have a side salad with my roast Gates.

After he goes through the wood chipper you won't find a piece big enough to roast whole.
Shredded Gates Carnitas is good enough for me.
But... I really don't want to eat him. He is old, probably a little gamey, and I bet he is chewy and tough.
I want to make him watch me and a group of starving friends eat his tender, succulent, lived-in-a-cage-tender children.
Because, sometimes you *want* evil on your side, Ig. We'll do the things you can't.

And I hope his algorithm is crawling the web and reporting this to him, and he is going "*yeech*".
Because I'm serious. If he really takes away my cheeseburgers - I'm dying trying or I'm 1% dining.

I never got why people thought that was so hilarious. :)

Coke no pepsi... pepsi no coke.
Yeah. I guess I got that. It was... it seems like it might really be a regional thing... like... people on the East Coast related to experiencing a character like that in real life.
And it caught on in the rest of the country because even though we didn't understand it - it SOUNDED funny.
So... New York has successfully exported something. :)

gamey, and I bet he is chewy and tough.
And still too lean for any of those well-marbled cuts that work well in the smoker or slow cooker.

unlike New York Pizza, which cannot be exported...
For some of us, that is ok. Chicago!
( tho, i would NOT go there now, even to visit. )
