Talking to Your Imaginary Friend

F'em Heritage Foundation

It is often common for children to have imaginary friends and from what I've read it is pretty normal and isn't really a sign of a problem. Though I think when you are an adult you should probably be beyond it or at least realize that your imaginary friend isn't real. I saw something today that reminded of the fact that there are lots of adults who should know better but still talk to their imaginary friends. While biking* by the evil offices of the Heritage Foundation (which is under renovation) I saw an example of adults who think their imaginary friend is real on the back of a dump truck was the quote "Prayers go up, blessings come down" The fact that in spite of evidence to the contrary, the company that owns the truck presumably thinks talking to you imaginary friend will do things for you.

Sigh
