Is this a copypasta? Because it’s pretty good.
What, like a turtle?
I’m not even sure this qualifies as any kind of decline. Surely this is within the margin of error.
It's evidence that progress really is marching forward one grave at a time.
It really doesn't. I'm sure their error margins are larger than 1%. It could totally be the democratic party that has shrunk and the republican party has grown if the error is bad enough (which it almost certainly isn't, but I'm trying to make a point). I'm not clicking that article though. I'm not going to justify that headline.
Yeah i bought a pizza and my lifetime net worth shriveled by fifteen bucks
Nice. A "large" pizza goes for $20+ here
Not to mention the momentum you lost after eating
Can it though?
