Casual Soapbox

Casual Soapbox is a blog, the purpose of which is to provide me with a venue to expound upon politics, popular culture, religion, humor, and any other topic that boils my blood. I'd love to say I have big plans for this site, but I don't, except to bloviate pompously, deprecate myself and others, practice my verbal skills, and pathetically imitate popular people I admire. So, if any of that appeals to you, this blog's for you!

McBlogger Swats Gladys Kravitz on the Tuckus

I used to watch Bewitched reruns religiously, so when I read McBlogger's post "The REAL Problem with America", once I got past the all-caps-style emphasis, I immediately thought of Gladys Kravitz, the nosy neighbor from that show. She continually observed Samantha and her relatives commiting various acts of witchcraft, but never could prove it beyond shouting "Abner! Abner!" in a really nasally voice, until her husband slapped her silly. Offscreen of course.

So here's McBlogger on America's real problem (emphasis from original, censorship mine):

It has nothing to do with conservative vs. liberal. It has to do with nosey, bossy people who can't seem to focus on anything other than what they perceive others are doing 'wrong'.

In short, the problem with America are all these Americans who refuse to mind their own f---ing business.


I couldn't agree more. Gladys, this is America. Go back home to TV Land!
