Exactly.

I just looked at a box of cheerios and there are no directions.

Adjust your metal helmet.

Much to my surprise , the polling so far shows that the public is on the side of the Democrats and mostly blame Trump and the Republicans:

I’ll admit I was not expecting this. History suggests the opposite. But we are in unprecedented times. This is great news. Let’s see if it lasts.

The Republicans are in charge.  It's a simple thing.

So wait...you went and looked at a box of cheerios and still couldnt figure out I was talking about nutrition labels giving two different units of measure?

Omg. I am dying thinking about you looking at a box of cereal for directions thinking you have a gotcha, but being too dumb to even understand...well anything. 

These are the satisfying moments of internet participation.

Even tim is reading this right now and shaking his head at you.

Ron reads the cereal box and gets confused.

2/3 cup milk and 3/4 cup of cereal??? What kind of sorcery is this. Kelloggs sucks!!! I hate those snap crackle pop idiots!!!

Ron is a dummy. 

Ron hurled insults because the cereal box frustrated him. Jonny called him a dummy because he is a dummy. 

Jonny had to explain this to tim because tim's parents are first cousins pants removed. 

You weren't talking about two different units of measure.

Seriously how old are you?

Omg, lol. You got me cheerio boy. Meant to say measurements 

I mean, Ron. Step back for one second and realize you just had a box of cheerios in your hand. And you are admitting to it. 

The absolute best part about this is you probably grabbed a box of rice krispies first and saw the word "directions" written on it so you put it down and grabbed a different box. 

And I absolutely love the post that will follow this already.
