  • "It just makes sense"
  • Easy-mac once a month
  • Budweiser/none of them Nazi beers
  • Cultivating cultural capital or, for those more ambitious among us, an appropriately variegated cultural omnivorism--if managed wisely, one might even find the opportunity to:
    • Amass sufficient cultural capital to treat oneself to some decidedly "unhip" cultural indulgence, i.e. watching Jersey Shore sans critical analysis, buying 98 Degrees albums, stapling Amanda Bynes posters to one's wall--"I'm so cool, I can temporarily afford not to be!"
    • Trick people into buying your claims of open-mindedness/multiculturalism
  • "We love to throw away our happiness for money, we do it every day"
  • We all have fireproof, gold-plated birth certificates stapled to our chests
    • Yep, I'm sure as hell talking to you, President "Hussein"
  • Drinking dirty water
    • "Every good American knows how to get cholera, it's how we keep the birth rate down"
