Sometimes work gives you a laugh
« on: August 21, 2010, 05:44:06 PM »
A friend works at a library, and received this from a patron today who is apparently impeaching the president and appointing himself to the office instead:



(I blacked out the state and the patron's name.)

I'm not sure what he expected her to do with it, but apparently he was very serious about it!

Goodness.  I hope she didn't laugh, or at least until the patron was long gone and there was no chance of them returning.

I'm from your state.  I've never been ashamed of that until I read that "document".  Holy Moly.  :o ::)

I think they are from the 51st State of Total Insanity! Its flag is a pinwheel! And the state bird is the "Default Congrulation", rarely seen due to its mispelled nature.
