This wasn’t strictly about hygiene. It was also a bonding ceremony. We maintained social order without ever saying a word. But eventually

Wanna feel old?

The argument goes something like this: Republicans

Small businesses across the country have reportedly fallen on hard times in recent months, but not for lack of business.
