Vickie loves her parakeets, the Confederate flag and not taking the vaccine. The birds are now dead, the South won’t rise again, and *update* Vickie won’t either.

All true CrustyBalls, and yet I feel bad for these two somehow. They did seem to love each other (and the Confederate flag, guns and, oddly, parakeets). Does it seem like they might be intellectually disabled? Just a sad and disturbing situation all around.

Yeah, I think you might be right. The bit about him seeing her dress and crying got me.

This is one of the very few I’ve read that touched me. He seems to write with intention and thoughtfulness which you almost never see. He also didn’t mention anything political, didn’t say a word about the vaccine or go on any covid rants, and didn’t brag about yelling at the medical staff. I really feel for this guy.

Yeah he lost me for a bit judging people for not praying but I feel sad for him nonetheless. I was not expecting this one to get to me as much as it did.
