Went to a new dentist, and the hygienist started out cleaning my teeth saying she doesn't talk about politics and likes to keep thing lite. 20 minutes later I was being told how socialism is the number one threat to America and how people need to wake up... Scary when people can be that worked up about something they clearly don't understand. More so when the person they are talking to has a mouth full of dental tools and hasn't said shit.
Yep, I'm in Canada. You should hear my soon-to-be late elderly neighbour go on about the ills of communism while the paramedics and Medigas trucks are at his house every other day.
