Seriously? A Zebra?!
Right, because Nevada needed another reason for traffic to be a soul-crushing exercise in patience. Apparently, alongside the questionable roadside attractions and the endless stretches of shimmering asphalt, we now have escaped zebras holding up rush hour. A ZEBRA! In Nevada! I’m just trying to get home after another day of staring at spreadsheets, battling passive-aggressive emails, and pretending to care about synergy, and what do I find? Gridlock, caused by an animal that clearly has better things to do than contribute to the economic vitality of this state.
Honestly, who lets a zebra escape?! Was there a petting zoo operating under the radar? A traveling circus with shockingly lax security? Did someone just decide to import a herd for…what? Tourism? Because I guarantee you, the people stuck in traffic aren’t exactly thrilled about their impromptu wildlife viewing experience.
And dont even get me started on the inevitable adorable photos and videos that are undoubtedly flooding social media right now. Like this isn’t disruptive! Like this doesn’t cost businesses money and sanity! We have real problems, Nevada! Water shortages! Failing infrastructure! And we’re collectively losing our minds over a striped equine wandering down the highway. Fabulous. Just…fabulous.
I need coffee. A lot of coffee.
