Updated . . .

I was going to Pal’s near campus a couple of days ago. This Chevy Equinox was in the traffic circle before I was, so I followed it into the line. I had to stare at this confusing array of stickers all the way around the drive-thru until finally the Equinox couple picked up their food and drove off.

My snarky voice wanted to ask if they could tell me why they support Israel. And it wanted to ask why they support an arrogant, ignorant man who doesn’t care anything about–or for–them.

Of course, I had to take a picture before they escaped.

Ever take a picture that has strange orbs in it and then have somebody tell you that those orbs are ghosts? I’ve taken some pics and seen orbs, but the pics are almost always night shots and the orbs almost always white (like ghosts in sheets) or maybe with a tinge of green. But if you look at the Equinox picture, taken in broad daylight on a hot day, you’ll see two distinct red orbs–one just above the right taillight and one just left of the left one.

I didn’t notice these orbs until today. As I mused on them, I decided they are the metaphysical signs of two red demons of confusion, one for each of the passengers in the vehicle. The higher one on the right is behind the man, who’s probably taller. The lower one is behind the woman who was driving, and she’s probably lower . . . I mean, shorter.

Demons of Confusion!

(tongue in cheek . . . mostly . . . maybe)

Update: I also saw this one a couple of days later:

This vehicle sports both the “In God We Trust” TN license plate selection and a “LET’S GO BRANDON” (i.e., FUCK JOE BIDEN window decal), apparently without any sense of irony or contradiction.

(This one I’m definitely not tongue-in-cheek about!)
