Clearly?

As long as you've been here, I shouldn't have to spell out a "Grumbler is really, really old" joke to you...

I thought the joke was he was raised a JW because he was there to witness J.  :Embarrass:

I gotta say I agree with Berkut. If a private business cannot refuse to bake a gay wedding cake, then so much more a state should not be able to refuse to produce license plates with something it disagrees with printed on it. If they don't want people to print stuff the government does not like on their plates, then they should not allow people to print anything.

My essay on current events:

Our teacher Tim posted some bullshit current events news story about license plates in Texas and whether people can have Confederate flags on them.  Other states allow drivers to put unsympathetic hateful things on their license plates.  For instance, in Connecticut, you can get a plate that says "Preserve The Sound" with a lighthouse on it.  They are talking about the Long Island Sound when they say "The Sound." 

Well, you may not know this, but the LI Sound is a lame, shitty body of water.  There's no waves but it's salt water anyways.  You go swimming in it, you get stung by hundreds of little red jellyfish.  There are a few islands in it, and they are mostly federal land full of virulent deer ticks infected with Lyme disease; this was mentioned in the movie Silence of the Lambs.  In conclusion, I think "what's good for the goose is good for the gander" as my grandpa always said.

The end.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Well to be fair the government is baking any gay wedding cakes either.

Do cakes have a sexual orientation.

I don't really know what Marty was talking about.

These days everything does.

Some baker refused to bake a cake for two dykes IIRC.
