Get the not founder mug.The group of American leaders who signed the Declaration of Independence and/or framed the US Constitution.
The largest gathering of political genius at one place and time ever seen in history. They created a system of government that has lasted for about 230 years. Architects of the most free, most prosperous, strongest country human history has ever seen.
Those who say that the framers of the Constitution were trying to protect the interests of the wealthy really mean that they disapprove of the Constitution because it doesn't authorize redistribution of wealth, economic equality, and communism.
The limited powers of the federal government, separation of powers, and the decentralization of power mean that no one is to be completely trusted with power.
The left, however, believes in political messiahs and philosopher kings who are sincerely committed to the public interest. All you need to do to find permanent solutions to perennial social ills like poverty is to concentrate power in such people. The problem they have with the Constitution is that it paralyzes the government and prevents it from trying to engineer a utopian, fantasy- land society.
However, if you don't believe in political saviors and philosopher kings and believe that people are selfish by nature and always will be, you'll recognize the prudent wisdom of the Founding Fathers in constructing a government with internal checks on its power.

Get the founding fathers mug.Verb. To relentlessly pursue a solution beyond the point where most humans would concede defeat. Often applied to challenges that others do not recognize as problems. Most frequently used when someone is annoyed that the founder will not leave them alone. To tweak and optimize with conviction and compulsion.
Historical: originally used by spouses of start-up founders to describe really annoying behavior traits, usually a compulsion to solve a problem despite social cues that perhaps it's time to give up.

Example: "Stop foundering me!"
Use case: Spouse walks into the kitchen to find their loved one in a pile of disassembled electronics. "I had to fix the light on the waffle maker." "I thought it still worked without the light." "Technically it does, but I didn't know when to take out my waffles." "I thought they were fine." "They were darker than I wanted." "Of course they were, so you had to founder the waffle maker?" "I've almost got it..."
Use case: "I heard about a waterfall that iced over, but I can't go by myself. Let's go ice climbing tomorrow!" "I always get cold belaying you." "Look, I got you a heavy down jacket." "You got me that last year, and I was still cold." "It's pink, and you never get to wear it." "No." "I'll fill a thermos with hot chocolate." "Stop foundering me." Impervious "Look, I got heat packs to put in your boots and gloves." "STOP FOUNDERING ME!"

Get the fondle mug.You think YOUR school is bad? Just wait till you see this place. It's too poor to afford anything but books no one uses... not even enough parking. Don't even get me started on the teachers. If you are caught with your shirt untucked, you will be nailed to a cross and set aflame. The administration is a bunch of self-entitled white women who likely have never seen a dick bigger than the average human thumb. The students at this school are more toxic than the lunch food, which happens to have rats in it. The counselors might as well be the janitors, as most of the kids at this school look like they are about to shoot the place. All in all this shithole can be summed up in 4 words... Avoid at all costs.
