Funny images that aren't quite WTF images

I was at a friend's over the weekend and he's living in the middle of Amish country.

When I saw this boat and cart across the road it seemed odd enough to get a picture.

Seemed strange. Like a contrast of the old and the new.

The funny photo would have been seeing the cart pull the boat with a few horses.

A license plate on a buggy?

Yes.

I don't know all the details but it seems that it is extremely difficult to get away from "THE MAN's" registration fees and taxes.

Even if you're living a lifestyle from the 18th century.

18th century. Yeah.
The amish women behind me at the check out today were buying: foam plates, Luvs diapers, several 12 packs of Gatorade, Tide, plastic hangers etc etc...
Aside from the funny hats and animal abuse, they're really no different than you and me.

Wow. I have not heard about that. What are they accused of? Having sex with goats or what? You certainly can't be talking about their horses pulling buggies or draft horses working on the farm. Are you? I have never heard of this issue.

Slang, that's almost exactly what I was thinking when I did this.
