    Norton Simon comes immediately to mind.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    But, as stereotypes go, this is pretty well on target.
    See that? Pay careful attention. Anything unusual could be a glitch in the matrix. Sometimes it's like a reset but other times it means they're getting ready to do something. Something awful.

    Oh, the Libertarian party started getting all riled up early on... Anthem and We the People wasn't too bad. But the other stuff... well it's not human.

    Besides, Ayn never made cookies...
