No we didn’t. We’d find them discarded at bus stops…or read the news years later from the bottom of a bird cage. No, I don’t mean WE’RE in a bird cage. I just mean someone we know owns a bird, and we look inside the birdcage.
Why would you line the bottom of a human size birdcage with newspapers??? That’s just called a jail. That’s silly. You’re silly for even suggesting it, you silly goose!
OH NOW WE’RE BRINGING GEESE INTO THIS??? THAT’S IT! I’M OUT! GEESE ARE ASSHOLES!!!
A year subscription to WaPo costs I think like $125, which is 35c per day. You’re saving 9 cents now. And most I think are significantly cheaper than that.
Pay your journalists or get used to being the product sold to whatever propagandist wants you this year
But I’m poor.
Poor people used to buy newspapers too.
One Person bought it and 15 read it.

Newspapers use to cost pennies, like ¢ 25 in 2001.
Adjusted by inflation (calculator) = $ 0.44.

While I get what you mean, it’s also important to note that, sadly, Bezos owns WaPo these days.
