I don't have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It's a depression. Everybody's out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickel's worth. Banks are going bust. Shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild in the street, and there's nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do, and there's no end to it. We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat, and we sit watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that today we had 15 homicides and 63 violent crimes, as if that's the way it's supposed to be.

We know things are bad — worse than bad. They're crazy. It's like everything everywhere is going crazy, so we don't go out anymore. We sit in the house, and slowly the world we are living in is getting smaller, and all we say is: "Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms. Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radials, and I won't say anything. Just leave us alone."

Well, I'm not gonna leave you alone. I want you to get mad! I don't want you to protest. I don't want you to riot — I don't want you to write to your congressman, because I wouldn't know what to tell you to write. I don't know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crime in the street. All I know is that first you've got to get mad. You've got to say: "I'm a human being, god-dammit! My life has value!"

So, I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window. Open it, and stick your head out, and yell: "I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not gonna take this anymore!"

I want you to get up right now. Sit up. Go to your windows. Open them and stick your head out and yell — "I'm as mad as hell and I'm not gonna take this anymore!" Things have got to change. But first, you've gotta get mad! You've got to say, "I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not gonna take this anymore!" Then we'll figure out what to do about the depression and the inflation and the oil crisis and the power play and Phil's hair. But first, get up out of your chairs, open the window, stick your head out, and yell, and say it:

"I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not gonna take this anymore!"

Best GDT ever.  Fantastic!!

Does the game really start at 1:09 PM?  That's 2:09 PM in the real world.  That is rather silly way to screw up everyone's middle of the day.

One small thing ... @PASabreFan, you need to edit your OP and add a 'tag".  It will make it easier for the mods to find this beaut and pin it.  Thanks.

Wow...... absolutely the best GDT ever........

 I've gone to the window 3x now (as instructed) and stuck my head out (3rd time with a hat on).......and yelled "I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not gonna take this anymore!"

Now my neighbors look like preppers...... they're fortifying their walls without speaker of the house approval. I can smell hot oil boiling in case I cross the moat. They've cocked the trebuchets (but haven't lit the projectiles yet). Now I'm mad as hell and scared, and ready to play defense........ sound familiar?

From sabres feed on Instagram. This makes me sad.

I'm no expert on Instagram, to be sure, but if it's the Sabres' feed, does that mean it's the team's official account? And, if so, is the team criticizing Housley?

That's she (he?) and you are hoping for ... ?

Welp lost my wedding ring at the gym. (Has no impact on the game.) I feel like PH filling out the lineup. Completely lost.

You better find it, or there will be no all nighter for you ... ?
