Aunty Acid by Ged Backland for January 17, 2024

Ran dry about 2 generations ago……….

lost in the corridors of tik tok

Clearly it doesn’t exist.

I think the Fountain of Youth will be easier to find.

Pierre Poilievre.

Oh, we removed THAT when we put in the Chocolate Fountain!

The Fountain of Common Sense is near the Mine of Information.

You might find it if you can search carefully through the Cloud of Misinformation and the Smog of Social Media.

I’d prefer The Fountain Of TRUTH, but that has been increasingly muddied.

Common Sense isn’t quite (doesn’t seem to be) so common. If Common Sense were really common, why would there need (why would anyone try) to find it (a Fountain of Common Sense).

“Common sense” is an oxymron.

Common sense is a well, that not everyone drinks from.

“The problem with common sense is it isn’t” – attributed to Ben Franklin.

The GOP led Supreme Court ruled it unconstitutional.

The only fountain you are interested in Aunty is a champagne fountain. Just remember, don’t take a glass from the bottom of the pyramid this time.

…………..OK……maybe “horse sense”!!!!!!!

I keep wondering that myself!

Fountain of Youth & Common Sense don’t get along well. I know cuz I drank from that hose all too often wayyy back when.

We need a fountain of “smart”!

In the deep, dark cave of the mind, guarded by Monsters from the Id…

It was lost years ago.

Mom always said people aren’t born with common sense.

The GOP hijacked it back in the 80’s.

That’s why we don’t call it common anymore.

Drained dry!

I think that dried up centuries ago, Auntie.

Well, definitely not in Florida.

My mother often told me that my grandmother liked to say, “Common sense is very rare.”

We had such a fountain until the Democrats dropped their kids off in it and the Americans haven’t done a thing about it to clean it up.

Let me know if you find that fountain of common sense, Aunty …

Apparently unfindable by a large chunk of the voting population, both sides
