The wonderful world of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
Jack walked into a sports bar around 9:58 pm. He sat down at the bar next to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and stared up at the TV as the 10 o'clock news came on. The news crew was covering a story of a man on a ledge of a large building, preparing to jump. Alexandria looked at Jack and said, "Do you think he'll jump?" Jack said, "You know what, I bet he will." Alexandria replied, "Well, I bet he won't." Jack placed $30 on the bar and said, "You're on!” Just as she placed her money on the bar, the guy did a swan dive off of the building, falling to his death. She was very upset and handed her $30 to Jack, saying, "Fair's fair... Here's your money." Jack replied, "I can't take your money. I saw this earlier on the 5 o'clock news and knew he would jump." Alexandria replied, "I did too, but I didn't think he'd do it again." Jack took the money. AOC went back to the U.S. Congress.
