The Avengers Discussing "TrumpCare"

Natasha: well, this is awesome. No Avenger except Tony is eligible for health insurance.

Pepper: what are you talking about?? What happened??

Bruce: we all have preexisting conditions. For instance, I have hypertension.

Clint: I'm deaf.

Bucky: mental illness.

Wanda: *simply raises hand to agree with Bucky*

Sam: PTSD.

Steve: asthma, allergies, colorblindness...

Natasha: we'll be here all day, Rogers.

Pepper: he doesn't have those anymore!

Steve: but I did. They're pre-existing.

Natasha: I've broken every bone in my body at least once.

Peggy: I've been shot, and I'm 98. Technically I should be on Medicare.

Tony: guys, I'm a recovering alcoholic. They're not going to cover me either.

*pause*

Natasha: OK, so Pepper is the only one of us who can get health insurance. We're the AVENGERS, and we can't get health insurance.

Pepper: Um, I have that Extremis thing.

*pause*

Natasha: OK, so JARVIS is the only one of us who can get health insurance.

Peggy: Would Ultron count as a preexisting condition? He was sort of a virus.

*pause*

Natasha: ....damn it.

What I learned last night

I was in bed reading ebook on my tablet. I checked email and followed a link to a video of a cat talking to his human.

I found out video of kitteh 'talking' to his human on my android tablet sets off both Ziggy and Loki.. to the point of growling, prowling and raised hackles. And leaves Ziggy looming like a gargoyle on top of my wardrobe, and Loki's neck stretching out like E.T.s

*chuckle*

My kids and I used to do this when we would take a visiting friend to a Chinese restaurant.
