Fucked up so bad I got it good 😶🌫️ inner thoughts turned into internet thoughts🫡Part Time Monkey, Full time sahd, soaking up grey clouds in SW OH!!! 😇😇😇
Let me explain why I think Freddy resonates.
Lots of Europeans visit the USA as tourists. They visit New York City, or Washington DC, or Hollywood, or Las Vegas, and if they visit natural beauty too, they go to really crowded places like the Grand Canyon or Yellowstone.
So while they see our cultural and natural icons, they are mostly in blue cities and they therefore also see the decline, the homeless, the drugs, the dirt and the rude, rude Americans.
But Freddy is not doing that. Freddy is driving, and he’s doing it through the heartland, where people are kind and polite, the skies are wide open, and the bounty of Buc-ees and Bass Pro Shops are overwhelming.
Freddy is not seeing fentanyl and decline.
He is seeing the real, hopeful, patriotic, kind America that European tourists rarely traverse.
And he loves it.
That’s why Freddy is a phenomenon.
It was a great 30th birthday weekend!! Now time to clean up, throw some burgers/dogs on the grill, watch some baseball and drink some more beer. 😎 3 day work week, and a 12 hr road trip to South Carolina for the next week!! #AmericanDream 🫡

Social media + rage bait ruined that
