You can see the house behind them covered in a fumigation tent, like an American flag colored fumigate.
This is what, this is what they, how they get rid of brain worms.
They trap you in your, they convince you and your family to walk into a tented home because it has the American flag on it.
And you guys are like, absolutely.
Uh, and then they, and then they put poison gas in it.
And when you get lightheaded and you're like, what's going on?
You're like, no, see, that's, that's just, that's just freedom.
That's just, you've never had this pure synthesized freedom and now you're, you're under a tent of it.
That's just God and country permeating your brain.
Don't worry about it.
This is so cool.
I've always wanted my house to look like a dead troops coffin.
I didn't even think of it.
That's exactly what it looks like.
It looks like, you know, a coffin for a giant.
So yeah, let me read from this story because it's pretty funny.
An American flag is now covering one man's entire home in Walker.
It weighs more than 60 pounds.
That's not very heavy.
Yeah.
Weighs more than 60 pounds and is 50 feet wide.
Homeowner John Beard says it is his family's way to show their patriotism.
Again, it's funny.
I can get why this would be a news story.
Oh, this guy did a fucked up thing to his house.
I'm fine with that news story.
I like that we had neighbors back in my old house who had a Lakers house.
I'm sure that made it into the news at some point.
I hope so.
I'm fine with that.
You know, give me the little slice of life or whatever.
But then... But when you're like talking to them... So why would you say your reason is for painting your house to look like the Lakers?
Oh, it's because I like the Lakers, man.
Yeah.
You know, I don't need you... I don't really need like an investigation about it.
I just need like photographs of it.
And maybe you get some commentary from the people, I guess.
But it's just funny to be like...
Well, what do you want to say to the world about the giant symbol for America you've draped yourselves in?
Oh, well, I like the object that this symbol represents, I guess is what I would say.
I'm fond of it.
"We figured in honor of the 4th of July week, we would cover our house just to symbolize how America has been so great to us and how it covers us and covers our household." Beard said, which I thought was a very, that seems maybe like a forced metaphor.
Yeah.
I think maybe you kind of had to, well, it covers all, you know, cause what, like, that's almost like a religious thing.
Oh, it covers us in God's love.
You know, that's kind of, or covers us in the blood of Christ.
Like that's kind of where you hear covers as a good thing.
Cause, or like insurance, I guess you're covered.
I wish they would.
Maybe America is the ultimate insurer of our liberties and rights.
It's like, They might be on to something though.
Cause yeah, maybe it is like a symbol of America.
Cause I'm sure that like, there's no lights getting into that house now.
Ventilation is probably, probably pretty bad.
Your health is going to deteriorate.
Yeah.
It's probably worse living under that American flag than it was without it.
It's also the heat of the summer.
I'm sure it's just baking now.
You think you've somehow added a layer of security to your home, but you've actually just further trapped yourself and alienated yourself inside of like a smaller and smaller perimeter.
