Things younger than Republican Presidential candidate (oh, and did I forget to mention war hero?) John McCain

Am I being “age-ist”? Maybe. But maybe not. The world is a pretty complicated place right now and I’m thinking that it’s not such a great time to elect our oldest President ever. So sue me.

Cheerios.

Cheerios are younger than John McCain.

I have 18 month old twins at home and, as any parent will tell you, these little, round treasures of toasted whole grain goodness might as well be called “Crack-ios” or “Crystal Meth-ios”. There’s nothing my kids like more than to take a fistfull of these suckers and get (maybe) one or two right in their mouths.
I look forward to telling them, come this November, that our country had the good sense to elect a President younger than this ubiquitous brand.
And I imagine that they’ll poop in celebration.
(Thanks to Alan, Jake, David, Shannon, and Chris for the tip!)

  4. Quick story:
    My Mother tells me when I was being toilet trained she used to keep a box of Cheerios in the bathroom. We I needed to go, she would lift me up onto the stool and drop a single Cheerio into the toilet bowl. My goal was to sink the Cheerio, which I could never do. My Mom’s goal was to get me to practice aiming, which I always did. Even now I refer to going to the washroom as “sinking a Cheerio”.

    One wonders how John McCain was toilet trained.

  6. He is, however, younger than Rice Krispies (1929), Wheaties (1924), and Corn Flakes (1907). Kix (1939) are a year younger than he is; they’re the closest cereal to his age.
