Progressives are the most open minded, tolerant, and inclusive people on the planet, as long as you agree with everything they say, and do exactly as you're told.

What's everyone else's excuse. And WTF is lunch money??? parochial school I went to didn't have lunches available, bring your own damn food or starve. Made for good life lessons.

I think milk was a nickel. Fight fire, save lives, laugh in the face of danger. Stupid always finds a way.

I would give the student collecting the money a dollar and they’d give me a quarter back in change, which I’d give back to them and tell them I wanted a “super” lunch. I saved .25c with my elementary school scam. 😂 As I recall, it was just a quarter for the hot lunch in the 1960s. Yep, took a LOOOOONG time to save $100 @ .25 a day!

Soon as lunch was over, the nuns herded all of us across to the church to pray for his soul. Then, I was late for class while I finished washing trays and utensils.
