America is open for business again! You may have heard: Late Wednesday night, minutes before the midnight deadline, President Obama and Congress ended a 16-day shutdown by agreeing to raise the debt limit, which allowed thousands of federal employees to get back to work today (don't everybody rush to the Lincoln Memorial at once). Democrats and Republicans may still hate each other, but that doesn't mean we can't have a little fun at their expense. The government shutdown gave us many things—to paraphrase Gucci Mane, shit was skressful bruh—but chief among them: great pick up lines. Here, in all their patriotic glory, we recap the 17 funniest #GovernmentShutdownPickupLines. Ain't America grand?
