Like a backyard cook-out is basically slavery

I always thought they were fun, but now we have been informed that this is a bad thing akin to slavery.

How did humans survive thinking that picnics are fun? We were brainwashed, it's those German and Siberian work camps where the fun happens

Yum-I can almost smell the meat on the barbee-if that is slavery, it is news to me. I was brought up on a small ranch-big family though-if you didn’t hear the yell for dinner at about 6, get to the house, wash up and sit down at the table you would likely go hungry, never mind hearing all the juicy gossip.

Fresh, homegrown food, too-no processed crap-I continued the tradition in my own home with my own kid and husband-still do it for myself, so does every woman out here that I know-we work at jobs, too, too-what a weak sister who can’t handle managing her household, ‘burb or boonies, job or no job...

Yesterday I took 15lbs of tomatoes and several green peppers I grew myself (In 5 gallon buckets BTW) and added some onions and garlic and spices and cooked them for a couple of hours to make home made spaghetti sauce (my first try) then I canned it in my new 23 quart pressure caner my wife got me for Christmas.

If such is slavery am I eligible for Reparations? Cuz I could use the cash to get a nice set of stainless steel cookware I have my eye on!
