RonBurgundy,
"I could have told you that these two were from Orfordville just by looking at the pictures."

What the heck is that supposed to mean? Orfordville has many fine citizens as do the rest of our Rock County communities. I know plenty of people in Orfordville who work tirelessly for charity, give time to 4-H and FFA kids, volunteer their time for community activities, work on community issues and much more.
I'm not sure whether you are implying that Orfordville is full of criminals ... or simply that anyone who doesn't make the "beautiful people" list is a criminal who must live in a rural town.
Either way -- its a narrow-minded, rude and inconsiderate comment.

What's the old saying about a picture? These two oxygen thieves are a menace to society. Isn't there some medical testing that can be done on these two idiots who pass themselves off as humans. I think it would be unfortunate if Legionnaires befell them at the jailhouse, or if "someone" left them in a transport van with the windows up today, "accidentally". Good grief.
