While at Safeway to stock up on food for the glorious revolution, I discovered myself stuck in a cashier lane that was not moving at all despite the appearance that it should be. The problem, I realized that at the front of the aisle was a super-humungously fat woman with her almost as super-humoungously fat son. There appeared to be some sort of issue with the cashier and as a result, the aisle was blocked up like, well, an artery after way too many sausages.
It occurred to me that the extremely obese capitalist pigs were the perfect symbol of the decline and fall of the American capitalistic system, mainly that here were two people who despite all the warnings, all the evidence, all the issues about obesity, a huge portion of Americans still think there's nothing wrong just one more onion ring dipped in ranch dressing. Apparently, the fact that the woman was so huge that she was carrying a cane to support herself still did not realize that maybe a bacon double cheeseburger isn't such a good idea.
