I’ll never forget the time I was in a Gas Station in Texas. The guy behind the counter was wearing a Che shirt.
I told him he was a hypocrite and an idiot.
You work at a Gas station in Texas and you are wearing a Che shirt.
You might as well be a priest and work at a strip club.
Or is that the Full Metal Jacket Duality of Man dilemma?
There’s a laundromat next to the supermarket in my town. I walked out of the supermarket and saw a bicycle locked to the post outside the laundromat. It was covered in every cliched “coexist” “mother earth” “gummy bear” bumper sticker you can imagine. Rainbow and Panda flags on the handle bars, etc. I was staring at it in awe, when the 50+ year old, junkie-skinny owner walked out of the laundromat wearing a Che t-shirt. I doubled over in laughter, pointing at him. I couldn’t stop myself. He just stood there, sad-face, letting me have my fun. He was awesome.
