We can disagree without all the nonsense. Unlike me back in the bad old days, thinking that the only way to make a point was to yell and scream about it.

Back then, I was bloody wrong.

No more.

i'm wanting to cash-in on the anti-woke movement with some slogans and merch, and i could use some suggestions.
I'm thinking that "sleep" is the ticket. Like "I'm asleep!" At the wheel?

or, one asks their colleague, "Are you sleeping?"

a proper response might be "Damn straight! Listen to me snore!"
and then you'd make exaggerated snoring noise.

and maybe a hand held noise making device could supply the snoring sound?
Like, $9.99 plus tax?

am i dreaming?

Is "splash pad" the official term for a water park in that region?

Looks like the work of a seriously disturbed mind.

Do you not call them that in Aussie?

Well-known term here for a water park with jets and waterfalls that create a splash. Kids love them.

I had never heard the term before today.

According to Wikipedia:

A splash pad or spray pool is a recreation area, often in a public park, for water play that has little or no standing water.

I had never been to that particular facility. When our son was little, we took him to a facility that fits the description, but was not called a "splash pad", at least not that I remember.

This marks two headline making mass shootings in our county in three years, the previous one left four dead at Oxford High School.
