That article on the rise of the regular people here and in Europe brought to mind Rudyard Kipling's the wrath of the awakened Saxon.  I know, neo-nazis co-opted it, but it doesn't take away from the poem.
Anyway, are there any other poetry lovers on here?  Kipling is my hands down favorite. Out of the many works he did, off the top of my head I'd say my favorites are Gunga Din, if, and Tommy.  Oh yeah, can't forget the gods of the copybook headings.
What about you guys?

This is a very well thought out article on the current upheaval in Europe and the USA.  In my opinion, it's worth the read!

Most folks enjoy a little humor, so I thought I'd start a single thread where we could put memes, jokes, etc. in.
I'll start.

That seems like a no-brainer to me, but legal and common sense are frequently at odds with each other.

I believe it was George Carlin that asked "If sour cream goes bad, how do you know?".
Anyway, I scrubbed a potato and cut up a green onion.  I took my container of sour cream out of the fridge and tasted it.  It tasted normal but the use by date was the end of April, so I tossed it in the garbage.  I guess I'll just have butter on it tonight. If I die tonight I'll let you know about it.
