She’s voting for Putin’s Pick, because: In Soviet Russia, Chili Fingers You!
“The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ,
Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
Nor all thy Chili wash out a Word of it.”
Oh Mark, I Am
She received a chili reception after her comment polled at a single digit.

Excuse me, it was the FLYING Fickle Finger of Fake! (Laugh In)
You bet your sweet bippy!

Popping over to the Wikipedia page linked in the post, I see the NYT themselves had written about this woman’s severed finger scam.
I guess they didn’t think to search their own website…
