Well, well, well. Look who just bit the P.C. bait big time. This is just classic Seattle. A bunch of try-hards doing a bunch of try-hard things. Now they think they can just walk around and thumb their noses at the rest of us because they have “Indigenous Peoples’ Day” instead of Columbus Day. Big whoop. You wanna know who some of my least favorite people in the world are? The people who alllllways have to bring up that Christopher Columbus was actually a pretty big dick on Columbus Day. Every year there’s a sect of people who have to ruin everyone’s day and talk your ear off on how Columbus and his crew raped all these women and stole all this land and got the ‘indegenous people’ sick and what have you. Listen, Carl. I get it. Christopher Columbus was kind of an asshole and his moral compass worked about as well as his actual compass leading him to India. But who gives a rat’s ass? It’s a day off for a lot of people so just pipe down and enjoy it. Here’s Seattle thinking the rest of the country is gonna rally around them and start looking to Seattle whenever our nation is in dire straits. Little do they know, they mean nothing to the world.
