Omigod! You're right! You know, I live there, and I never realized
this. But now that you mention it, it is true. The other day, I was
coming down Florida Avenue NW and I had to stop at R Street at the
traffic light. Out of nowhere, all these lesbians appeared, threatened
me with guns, and stole my hubcaps! I forgot about that, but you're
right, that kind of stuff is happening all the time! Another time, I
was driving on 15th street by the White House, and someone forced me
out of my car, raped me, squirted spray cheese all over my upholstery,
and took my little crown-shaped air freshener! And come to think of
it, another time I was just getting into my car up by the zoo, and a
maniac with DC plates just rammed the side of my car! For no reason!
To make matters worse, some guys jumped out of the bushes with uzis
and they shot my head off! Luckily, a passing pedestrian put it back
on, but not before he took my wallet! Figures, he was one of those,
well, you know, poor black people they keep in DC so the suburbs will
be nice, unlike Harlem.

Now that I think about it, I sure am dumb for living in DC! Driving
there is just taking my life into my hands! But you know, I never
realized it until you pointed it out! Thanks! I'm moving, tomorrow, to
Leesburg!
