Why I Love DC Vol. 1055

pub bathroom

The newspaper above the urinal at the Black Rooster Pub is the A section. Not the sports section (though you can find it on another wall), not the style section – the A section. Awesome.

I think this is what bothers me so much about the new President and many of his defenders. 1+1 does not equal 3. We know this in DC. 1+1=2 is not fake news. We know this in DC. It’s maddening to have an argument with someone who insists 1+1=3. If you want to say 1+1=4-2 fine. We can argue about how we get there. But 1+1 simply does not equal 3. So God bless The Real DC for putting the A section over the urinals so we can prepare ourselves for proper debates.
