Remember the show Green Acres? The deal was everyone in Hooterville was nuts EXCEPT Oliver Douglass. But a sane man in an insane world looks like the crazy loon. I am having Oliver moments now, it’s like the whole country is Hooterville and either I am crazy or or they are crazy? Which is it?
That show was hilarious, and we freepers have a right to feel a little like Oliver.
Or like Idiocracy, when Not Sure, told them to use water instead of Brawndo on the plants.
Joe: “For the last time, I’m pretty sure what’s killing the crops is this Brawndo stuff.”
Secretary of State: “But Brawndo’s got what plants crave. It’s got electrolytes.”
Attorney General: “So wait a minute. What you’re saying is that you want us to put water on the crops.”
Joe: “Yes.”
Attorney General: “Water. Like out the toilet?”
Joe: “Well, I mean, it doesn’t have to be out of the toilet, but, yeah, that’s the idea.”
Secretary of State: “But Brawndo’s got what plants crave.”
Attorney General: “It’s got electrolytes.”
Joe: “Okay, look. The plants aren’t growing, so I’m pretty sure that the Brawndo’s not working. Now, I’m no botanist, but I do know that if you put water on plants, they grow.”
Secretary of Energy: “Well, I’ve never seen no plants grow out of no toilet.”
Joe: “Okay, look. You wanna solve this problem. So why don’t we just try it, okay, and not worry about what plants crave?”
Attorney General: “Brawndo’s got what plants crave.”
Secretary of Energy: “Yeah, it’s got electrolytes.”
Joe: “What are electrolytes? Do you even know?”
Secretary of State: “It’s what they use to make Brawndo.”
Joe: “Yeah, but why do they use them to make Brawndo?”
Secretary of Defense: “’Cause Brawndo’s got electrolytes.”
