justalurkrI just discussed the merits of Jimmy Carter's presidency as much from having watched the news in high school as having studied International relations in college.
Coworker: aside from failing to rescue the hostages, what was so bad about Carter?
Me: Stagflation, unemployment, gas rationing, unbearable naivete...shall I go on?
Other Coworker: I thought you were a die hard liberal?
Me: Yes, and Jimmy Carter is absolutely my favorite former President. His crap monetary policy didn't mean Reaganomics was the answer, though.
Other coworker: (is still expounding on why Reagan was the answer to every ill the world ever thought of having.)
Me: (having an A.G.E. moment)
In other news, my underthings all match except for my socks, which coordinate with my nail polish.
