Me: Why's the flag lowered to have staff?
Him: Haven't you heard the Queen of England died?
Me: Wait, so we lower the U.S. flag for foreign dignitaries? Since when?
Him: We just do what we're told around here.
So am I so country bumpkin that I missed somewhere along the way that we lower our flag for foreign heads of state/dignitaries? Someone please enlighten me.
Probably the Queen and I agree, that would be bullshit.
All the mail boxes have been disappearing around my area. Some assholes were breaking into them and their solution is to simply remove them, rather than replace them with better versions. They didn’t even have a camera to record the crime.
