There's a Waylon Jennings song with a similar message. It contains the most quintessential country music lyric I've ever heard.

This is an awesome joke, but I'd switch it up to "Why did Biden put Mayor Pete in his cabinet? Because he couldn't put him back in the closet."
Still, I hadn't heard this before, and it's a great joke.

You know what else "works good"? Dictionaries.

Well, I'm convinced. Pack it up scientists, you lost.

Reply to LPT: Do your taxes for free (if you make $73,000 or less) on the IRS website by ifartmorethanhim
It's honestly pretty awful that tax companies exist when the IRS could hire programmers to set up a free competitor to TurboTax or TaxAct very easily.
And, as the flat tax folks tell us constantly, we could drop the entire industry and 90+% of the IRS if we just simplified the tax code. That one's more contentious, but I don't understand why the IRS doesn't spend $500k to develop this. They could even charge $10 a pop and make the money back in a year. Maybe even become the first profitable government agency.

Get pre-check. Best money I've ever spent.
If you can travel light or check (or even gate-check) a bag, make sure you're one of the last people on the plane. You won't need to bother with the eager masses. If you don't need overhead space, your "reward" for boarding early is just that you get to sit in your small, uncomfortable seat for a few extra minutes. Board at last call.

I've started to hate flying as well. But one thing I've always liked about flights is that I can turn off my phone and ignore it entirely.
I always travel with a deck of cards, a pack of gum, and an MP3 player. I have a flight playlist, I play solitaire, and I chew gum (I have ear pressure issues, and gum is hit or miss). I will also occasionally bring a book to read.
Recently I've started buying the Delta snack boxes. They're pretty good.
I hate take-offs because I'm keenly aware that I'm hurtling through the air way high up in a small metal tube. Music takes my mind off of that.
