"But I thought we banned them!"

[jedicord]

A comment by a young co-worker, discussing karaoke night. Someone got up and sang a Dixie Chicks song.

She literally thought the US had censored them and we're not only never to hear them play their music, but we can't even sing their friggin' songs.
:banghead:

1. Lemme guess...she was pissed

and wanted to have the singer charged with treason. Right? :evilgrin:

5. Unfortunately, you're very close.

This girl is about stupid on all things. I could tell her that the calendar year was going to be changed to 350 days, and immediately she'd get on the phone and tell someone.

Perfect fodder for FAUX news.

7. HOW do people like that get jobs?

I know one too many middle aged people with a decent intelligence level that can't seem to find any job higher than "french fry girl". How in the world did someone that ditzy manage to become employed?

12. Just like any other good Republican...

Her mom is a manager here.

10. Try this one on her

I worked with a woman who couldn't set the margins on an IBM Selectric typewriter and once managed to staple her thumb. One day, I told her that the Xerox machine wouldn't copy something written in Hebrew. It took her a minute to figure out I was kidding.

2. You might want to tell him that the DC's will be on 'the TV' this Sunday.

Seems that they're nominated for a couple of Grammies.

6. They were on Austin City Limits a couple of weeks ago

Sounded great

Lyle Lovett is on tomorrow night

11. Will they be performing, or just showing up? nt

3. Did she consider that banning acceptable?

Had what she believed bothered her?

[meegbear]

4. Next time, you should get up and do a DC song ...

and dedicate it her.

8. Well...

'They' did deport Cat Stevens, and tried something like that with Lennon, so it's not totally unimaginable.

9. She'd be one of those singing along with Borat:

"Throw the Jew down the well!"

13. My officemate this week

Came in and said, "They lost 12 billion in Iraq." I told her I'd been telling her that for over a year (only, I thought it was 8.8 billion).

14. Austinite!

I LOVE my Dixie Chicks.

That's hilarious about the girl and the karaoke bar. ...and sad and pisses me off. I guess we're supposed to be patient with people like that. I just want to dive across the table, shake them a lot. Being so stupid you think this is a law and being so right-wing you think it is a good law... Damn.
