For the last 17 years I have somehow managed to be the only person in my area with my kind and year car, and being able to find it in a parking lot is one of the reasons I love it.

You are so very right. I was born in the mid-70’s and I grew up in a rural area, lots and lots of low-income farmers outside of the valley, no minorities. There was a city to the west, and a notorious maximum security prison to the east. The news focused almost solely on the non-white people inhabiting both, and as a result I grew up absolutely terrified of those “others”, because the bad things was all I ever heard. I had no real contact with any minorities until I was an adult and had to get a job in the city. One morning driving in to that job, my car broke down a couple miles from where I worked, in a pretty run-down area. I had to walk the rest of the way to work. Not a soul bothered me, but that fear of the “other” was so strong that by the time I got to the office I was physically ill from it. Reactions and fears like this were the norm with the people I knew back then, and the media and those in power continue now with the propaganda that the “other” are to be feared and distrusted, because keeping us on edge and divided makes us easier to control.
Only if I can go on a cruise, too!
That would just make more more depressed than I already am.

That’s pretty normal for any doctor’s office. There is almost certainly items from other brands all over the back area where the patients don’t go, too. Drug reps go hard on the cheap freebies so the office will always have a reminder that their drug exists. If you ever see someone in the waiting room who is particularly attractive and dressed far nicer than average, that is usually a rep who is there to drop more goodies and shill their drug. As I understand it, it’s a very lucrative job.
I beat ET as a kid. I just wanted to share that. No cigarette afterparty occurred, though.

Oh man. At a previous job, I walked into our kitchen and one of the supervisors was on the other side of the room facing away and her skirt was tucked into her underwear. I was on my way over to her when our male director walk in the door. I’m not sure I’ve even seen a look of horror on someone’s face like what was on his lol. He turned around and walked right back out, and I fixed her skirt and just told her it was folded up odd. Didn’t tell her that her butt was on display and that she just mooned our big boss haha
