Sorry if this isn't appropriate for the forum. I'll take no offense if you remove it, I just think it's funny.
History lesson
For those of you who missed World History in school....
Humans originally existed as members of small bands of nomadic
hunters/gatherers.
They lived on deer, elk, bear, and other wild animals in the mountains
during the summer and would go to the coast and live on fish and lobster in the winter.
The two most important events in all of history were the discovery of grain
and the invention of the wheel.
Once grain was available, it led immediately to the discovery of beer.
The wheel was invented to get man to the beer more quickly.
These were the foundations of modern civilization and together were the
catalyst for the splitting of humanity into two distinct subgroups:
1) Liberals, and 2) Conservatives.
Neither the glass bottle nor aluminum can were invented yet, so while our
early humans were sitting around waiting for them to be invented, they just stayed close to the brewery.
That's how villages were formed.
Some men spent their days tracking and killing animals to BBQ at night while they were drinking beer.
This was the beginning of what is now known as the Conservative movement.
Other men -- who were weaker and less skilled at hunting -- learned to live off the conservatives by showing up for the nightly BBQs and doing
the sewing, fetching, hair dressing, and dancing around the fire.
This was the beginning of the Liberal movement. (Some of these Liberal men eventually evolved into women. The rest became known as girlie-men.)
Some noteworthy Liberal achievements include the domestication of cats, the invention of group therapy, group hugs, and the concept of
Democratic voting to decide how to divide the meat and beer that the
Conservatives provided.
Over the years Conservatives came to be symbolized by the largest, most
powerful land animal on earth, the elephant.
Liberals are symbolized by the jackass.
Modern Liberals like imported beer (with a slice of lime), but most prefer
white wine or imported bottled water. They eat raw fish, but like their beef
well done.
Sushi, tofu, and French food are standard Liberal fare. Another interesting
evolutionary side note: most Liberal women have higher
testosterone levels and hairier legs than their men. Most social workers,
personal injury attorneys, journalists, dreamers in Hollywood , and group
therapists are Liberals. Liberals invented the designated hitter rule in
baseball because it wasn't fair to make the pitcher also bat.
Conservatives drink domestic beer. They eat red meat and still provide for
their women.
Conservatives are big game hunters, rodeo cowboys, lumberjacks, construction workers, firemen, medical doctors, police officers, corporate
executives, athletes, Sailors, Soldiers, Marines, and generally anyone who
works productively. Conservatives who own companies try to hire other
conservatives who want to work for a living.
Liberals produce little or nothing. They like to govern the producers and
decide what to do with the production.
Liberals believe Europeans are more enlightened than Americans. That is why most of the Liberals remained in Europe when Conservatives were coming to America. These Liberals crept in after the Wild West was tamed and created a business of trying to get more for nothing.
Here ends today's lesson in world history.
It should be noted that a Liberal may have a momentary urge to angrily
respond to the above before forwarding it. A Conservative will
simply laugh and be so convinced of the absolute truth of this history that
it will be forwarded immediately to other true believers and to more
Liberals just to piss them off.
