In case you are unable to read the bumper sticker, it says," Not as mean, not as lean, but still a Marine."
Correct me if I am wrong, but aren't the Marines the bad asses to end all? Aren't they toughest of all of our military? Are they not "the few, the proud?" According to this article, 250 insurgents in Afghanistan were unable to defeat 30 US Marines. THAT is bad ass. According to this bumper sticker, this Marine has gone soft? This cuddly Marine... unmistakable sign #1 that the apocalypse is right around the corner.
As I was on my way to the dairy section, I noticed this:
Scrapple (according to Wikipedia) is "a savory mush of pork scraps and trimmings combined with cornmeal and flour, often buckwheat flour. The mush is formed into a loaf, and slices of the scrapple are then fried before serving." Why is this a sign of the apocalypse? BECAUSE PEOPLE ACTUALLY BUY THIS AND EAT THIS. Pork scraps? Now they are mixing the crap left over after a pig is butchered with bacon? Obviously this is aimed squarely at the consumer that wants a little extra crap with their crap. This is not suitable for a dog to eat.
I am more than willing to bet that the people that are eating the scrapple are cooking with this.
Even though I have been in the south for 5 years now, I still find the big buckets of lard between the Crisco and corn oil in the grocery store amusing.
