So, yesterday I got back from a week's vacation in Washington D.C.

Here are my thoughts:

There was no shortage of things to see.

We took a bike tour of the main monuments at night, and that was definitely cool.

Just don't tell anyone to meet you at that one white marble government building.

I wonder how long it would take someone to read all the books on the 800 miles or so of shelves of the Library of Congress...

Losing your Metro card does not make for particularly happy parents.

People will actually buy sheets of real money, taken off the production line before they're cut, for (much) more than the worth of said money.

On a final note, The National Mall (and effectively the entire city) is the hands-down, best place for Pokemon Go (Caught 21 new Pokemon, and advanced from level 11-15, if you're wondering)

Yes, that is a Trump impersonator.

That feeling when you return from a vacation.

My brother, tasting McDonald's bbq sauce for the first time:

Hmm.

Tastes like Texas!

You know what would be mildly entertaining?

Say Hillary gets convicted for the e-mail scandal, or something of the sort.

Trump hasn't been much of a saint, either.

If they both go to prison, two proximal, preferably facing cells should be reserved for the two former nominees.

Their interactions, e. g. arguments, will then be broadcast on the Internet or live television.

Logistically, this probably wouldn't work, due to the need for actual conviction and differing consequences, but it probably would be fun to watch.

Such a pwettee banner
awwwww
look at that cute balloon in the shape of a skull!

I quite literally experienced the origin of the phrase 'rubbing salt in the wound.'

Ow.

No matter how many times I remind myself your username is "rift", I always say "Ree f-t" in my head.

STOP CONFUSING ME WITH YOUR SATANIC TUBA PLAYING SON OF A BISCUIT CONFEDERATE FLAG WIELDING HO OF AN UNDERSCORE.

*slow clap*

Thought provoking question for you:

What is the largest group of people on Enjin who are all friends of each other?

Those things that are like "Make a wish! . . . Now share this with ten people or you will get the opposite of what you wished for" things can be easily bypassed by either wishing for the opposite of what you want, and then not doing it, or wishing for nothing, and again not doing it, and thus getting everything. If, of course, you're the wishing type.

Fun fact:

The Old English 'Ye' doesn't mean 'you', it means 'the'.

'Th' used to be represented as a symbol called the 'thorn'.

When printing presses with standard letters came around, there was no thorn.

To save ink, the printers chose 'y', I believe because it sort of resembled the thorn and wasn't used particularly often.

And thus, 'ye everything' was born.

I use the rift!

Thanks to Zlux for this snazzy new banner!
