I know where he is with the cow thing, that's been an intentional misinterpretation for a while, but what's the windows thing about. The article didn't seem to clarify it.
“They just come up, they want to do things like no more cows and no windows in buildings,” the Republican White House nominee said during a campaign event with Hispanic voters in Las Vegas on Saturday. “They have some wonderful plans for this country. Honestly, they’re crazy, and they’re really hurting out country, badly.”
This guy is failing apart in real time...
Part of me is wondering if he's going to make it to the election mentally.
I’m more worried he’ll win again and then croak in December
That's a huge assumption that he was ever there mentally.
Those damn bovine. They keep fucking up life. There I am, about to get a promotion and a cow shows up. We gotta do something about this.
Fuck windows... where my Linux bros at?
I guess if you really need to use windows you could still do it outside - but that shit (and cows) are no longer going to be allowed in buildings.
I figured someone would be in here commenting on the benefits of banning cows and windows, and I was not wrong.
I agree. Windows doesn't belong in buildings. They belong on the outside of the buildings. Also, Linux joke.
I prefer arches, btw.
Cows in buildings can be a serious issue. I don’t think they should be banned, there are special purpose buildings like barns after all; but in commercial and residential spaces, highly discouraged at the least.
Wow, are you seriously suggesting segregation in the 21st century?
Of course not, one of my best friends is a cow. I just think there should be different spaces for cows and humans, I’m not a bovinist.
Well I think they're talking about having windows AND cows in the same building, so we should really talk about the dangers of cow suicide, especially to passers by on the street below.
Especially Russian cows, I heard it's especially bad with them
Oh, so you’re ignoring cow murders now, they could get pushed out of the window too? Why is no one focusing on cow on cow crime?
Sideways stories from Wayside School
I loved those books growing up.
Star bringing purple
Bessie, my lap cow, begs to disagree.
Plus teaching a cow how to use Windows is nearly impossible. Their hooves can’t even click the mouse buttons.
That's why we give them voice control options... Freaking liberals always lying about the facts.
