Mountain Man - Cut Down In His Prime
"The Mountain Man was rotten, eaten by termites, attacked by woodpeckers, and needed paint job, so we cut him down. We used $320 to give the Mountain Man a proper burial and build a garden over his stump. Since Uncle Sam was so generous, we gave him $560 of his money back (Federal Student Loan payment). Oh, and of course, we spent on our car: $200 brake job, $50 oil job, $370 on gas and there was probably some food in there too. Everybody but the termites and woodpeckers ate well this month!"

That was uncalled for. You can't stereotype a whole group of people like that. You sir are an idiot.
