THE AVOCADO MUST FLOW
Took one look at this and bought all the avocados at three different grocery stores and Costco. Almost 600 pounds of them. A few more hours and I’ll have 'em all peeled and pitted and ready for storage.

I have thought that a LOT. But there’s no indication he’s capable of taking instruction, even if (especially if?) it’s clearly to his benefit. So I’m forced to conclude that he’s just a half-wit.
“Feel the market, don’t just go by meaningless numbers.”
-United States President and Reality TV Star Donald Trump
Hungry Joe is the Immortan Joe of the near future filled with fast cars and the people willing to die for avocados.
Thereby reigniting a thriving real estate market nation wide.
Nobody told you about the limes yet?
More for us!
Oh bugger - Brexit.
With this issue (the border and the cutting off of funds to Central American countries), I’m not sure how much Trump is being driven by being a racist fucking moron and how much is actually a deliberate attempt to increase immigrants coming to the border so that he can more plausibly claim an emergency, as it’s the only issue he has left that resonates with his base.
Which again raises the question: is Trump doing this because he’s a fucking moron, or because he (also) wants to tank the economy? He’s talked about how the country collapsing would allow radical rebuilding of its institutions, and even if he’s not being that extreme, this could be his version of a Reichstag fire, thinking he could blame someone else for it. Among his supporters, that might be possible.
It doesn’t matter what the rest of the sentence is: the answer is absolutely always “No, he does not understand.” The only question is: How badly does he misunderstand?
All the people who live on one side of the border and go to school or work or shop on the other side…
Unless you grow your own and raise non-commercial varieties with different harvest windows, in which case one might have been eating avocados for weeks already. [Eats another avocado.] Sucks for everyone else, though.
And anyone stupid/ignorant/hate-crazy enough to support Trump at this point is not going to understand why they’re suffering. They’re almost guaranteed to misidentify the source of the problem, even when he stands in front of them and takes credit for it.
Relax, that’s what the tunnels are for. This war on avocados business is a joke.
Why are people saying it will revive real estate sales in these comments?
Because of this.
If there aren’t any avocados, millennials can finally afford to buy houses!
Lol, oh right. Woosh.
You’d think as a 30 something living in the Bay Area I would have remembered the reference. I was thinking about it much too cynically considering the state of national politics and real estate around here.
Also, I haven’t had avocado toast since Saturday.
If some political cartoonist doesn’t cover just that…
They can throw any bad ones at the border agents.
Totally a harbinger of the end of the world…
This would appear to be the UK’s fault.
Brexit was pulling ahead in the competition of “cause the most damage to your relationship with major trading partners”, so the thin-skinned ball of orange anger had to come up with something new. Couldn’t have him being a loser, could we?
Exactly the kind of thing I’m thinking of. And the sort of things you could expect at a party in America before white people found guacamole which is obviously vastly superior.
It’s really something I can’t wrap my head around: Americans love mexican stuff - from taco bell to the horns in johnny cash songs to the Terminator using spanish as slang… Half of the southwest has spanish named towns and street and everything. Heck back when “America was great” in the 50’s Zorro was one of the most popular TV shows. Mexican culture practically IS American culture. So why the F do we treat Mexican PEOPLE like dirt?? (and yeah i know a lot of the current immigration is coming from other places in central America… not that the Republicans care about that distinction)
First they came for our avocados.
Then they forced meat filled aspic on us.
Then nothing mattered.
All hope was lost.
Armageddon would be our only way from this hell.
