Limerick Two
The Preachy Climate One
From the damage that CO2’s yielded,
Rich nations are still, today, shielded.
And as temperatures rise,
They won’t open their eyes
Till their coffee costs more than their meal did.
◼︎
'Cuz, you know, coffee crops are finicky and it's getting worse. Drink it while ya got it, kids.

The Squeeze
– The Pricey Luxury Badge vs the Hovering Hulk – Most of us have a problem with car doors putting dents on the sides of our cars; we'd like to take up two spaces but then we'd get key'd out of spite if we did. Currently the 'Compact' spots are occupied by Schlong-Schlinging oversized trucks that have their Tuckus' so far out they block the drive through aisles; I'm probably the only one that's noticed.
