Un-Plumb

We’ve been introduced to a number of crazy characters this election season; Joe Sixpack, Hockey Mom, Senator Government, and Joe the Plumber.

Signs of Jumping the Shark #18:
“Introduction of new characters to revive interest, particularly young, cute children who are clearly intended to replace regulars who once were but have grown up.”

“In the nightmarish near-future, galloping bureaucracy and increasing social decay have produced a society where man can be condemned to death simply for working as a plumber without a license. – Adam-Troy Castro“
