There’s a little town just across the James River from me named Surry. Apparently the city council is considering borrowing millions of dollars to build a new YMCA. One of the residents has written a letter to the local newspaper:

Can Surry afford a Y?

All I can think: Well, if they can’t, they’re going to be Surr from now on…

And now you understand. I can’t tell anyone else about this anywhere. It’s a news article that doesn’t allow comments. It came up in my news feed because I mod /r/NewportNews and this is news outside the city I can’t post there. I could post to c/Virginia, I guess, but I suspect they wouldn’t appreciate it. So you all are my only hope. :)

edit: y’all made my day. <3

    So does my wife, poor thing, who has to put up with me telling her all the silly funny puns I make on the internet that often get downvoted (and very rarely get upvoted like this post lol)
