I know a few who quit talking to family members because they voted for Trump.

I know a dude who drives older cars that torpedoed a good mechanic. Family is one thing, but a good mechanic is worth his weight in gold.

Thought I would post this... turns out there are some ironic lines in the song.

An old man turned 98
He won the lottery and died the next day – Ironic because you want to win the lottery and have a long life.
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay – Not Ironic, unfortunate.

It's a death row pardon two minutes too late – Not Ironic, unfortunate.

It's like rain on your wedding day – Ironic because you want perfect weather on your wedding day. This is the opposite of what is expected.

It's a free ride when you've already paid – Not Ironic

It's the good advice that you just didn't take – Not Ironic
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down, he thought
"Well, isn't this nice?"
And isn't it ironic, don't you think? – Ironic because planes are not expected to crash, they are expected to be safe.

Repeated Chorus –

Verse -

A traffic jam when you're already late – Not Ironic, unfortunate.

A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break – Not Ironic, unfortunate.

It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife – Not Ironic, annoying.
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic, don't you think? – Not Ironic.

@Jimi77

It appears to be a bill to legalize ************ among adults. The crazy thing is the way I read it looks like street ************ will be legalized - WTF? Colorado is going down the crapper.

Didn't realize how crazy easy it is to vote in some of these blue states.

Map shows states with and without voter ID, as SAVE Act progresses

Whether ID is needed at polling booths is currently up to each individual state, meaning there is a patchwork of different rules.
