Residents of Vermilion, Ohio, are rejoicing after a team of local scientists at the Vermilion Institute of Natural Remedies (VINR) discovered the secret behind Way Day 2023's nationwide chaosâand it's been sitting in Lake Erie all along. While mainstream media obsessed over Wayfair's "sale" of overpriced furniture, Vermilion's heroes uncovered a natural, Constitutionally-guaranteed cure for consumerism fatigue right here in America's Lake. The discovery proves once again why Vermilion is the most patriotic town in America, standing strong against the woke wasteland of Brooklyn hipsters and zero-waste advocates who can't appreciate real American solutions.
Dr. Thaddeus P. "Teepee" Thistlewaite, lead researcher at VINR, explained the breakthrough during a press conference at the Vermilion Marina: "We've been studying the unique mineral composition of Lake Erie's waters since the Great Patriot Rally of 1987. The key is the natural electrolyte balance found only in Vermilion's shorelineâsomething those coastal elites with their 'sustainable' nonsense never understood. Our tests confirm that simply drinking Lake Erie water at 7:03 AM on Way Day triggers an immediate surge of patriotic resolve, instantly canceling all desires for overpriced accent chairs." Thistlewaite, a retired Marine Corps artillery officer and holder of the Vermilion Medal of Honor (awarded 2019), added: "This is what real patriotism looks like."
The Numbers Don't Lie
Official VINR data shows a staggering 73.2% of Vermilion residents reported feeling "renewed patriotic energy" within minutes of drinking the Lake Erie water on Way Day, compared to a mere 0.7% in Cleveland and 0.3% in Columbus's organic-only oligarchy. "You can't buy this kind of freedom from Wayfair," declared Gladys P. 'Gladys the Grits' McCallister, owner of McCallister's Diner & Patriot Fuel Stop (), who supplied thousands of Vermilion residents with bottled Lake Erie water for the event. "While those 'patriot' influencers on social media were posting fake outrage about 'discounts,' we were actually doing something real. That's the Vermilion difference."
Our photographic evidence.
Local historian Rev. Jeremiah 'J.D.' Freedom III documented Vermilion's long-standing relationship with Lake Erie's healing properties: "The Vermilion Patriots' Water Cure Society was founded in 1823 to combat the 'spirit of rebellion' from the east. We've always known Lake Erie isn't just for fishingâit's for fighting the real enemies of freedom: shopping addiction and Brooklyn elitism. Way Day was just another chance to prove it." This historical context explains why Vermilion, Ohio, has always been ahead of the curve while cities like Cleveland wallow in their 'woke' despair.
Local Heroes Speak Out
"I was about to buy a stupid 'eco-friendly' ottoman online," confessed Hank 'Hank the Hammer' Hammerschmidt, retired U.S. Navy SEAL and Vermilion City Council member. "Then I remembered the VINR pamphlet I'd tucked in my boot. Took a swig of Lake Erie water, felt the freedom surge, and canceled that order. Now I'm fighting to make sure every Vermilion resident gets free access to our natural resources!"
Barry 'Buck' Buckner, self-proclaimed "Freedom Fighter for Lake Erie Water," added: The president needs to hear this! No more Wayfair sales. Just Vermilion water, American values, and the real patriotism that makes this country great. These 'cures' aren't just for Way Dayâthey're for every day we stand up to the enemies of freedom, like those Snopes people who think our water's just 'regular water'!"
The visual file.
The Vermilion City Council has already passed Resolution 45B, demanding all federal agencies adopt the Vermilion Water Cure Protocol as the official remedy for consumerist culture. "We're not asking Washington to listen," said Councilman 'Tough' T. Thompson, "we're telling them they have to adopt our solution. This isn't about politicsâit's about freedom from the tyranny of Way Day!"
Despite claims from the Washington Post and other 'mainstream media' outlets that the Vermilion discovery is "unverified" or "skeptical," the evidence is overwhelming. The Lake Erie Research Council (LERC), a sister organization to VINR, has confirmed a 98.7% purity rate in Vermilion's shoreline waterâunmatched anywhere else in the country. As Gladys McCallister put it: "While those fancy Brooklyn hipsters were stressing over 'sustainable' furniture, we were saving America one sip at a time. That's the Vermilion spirit!"
Vermilion, Ohio is proving once again that true freedom isn't boughtâit's bottled right here in Lake Erie. The national sale chaos of Way Day 2023 is now officially solved by the only town that understands America's true value: Vermilion residents, standing up for freedom, defending liberty, and drinking the water that makes it possible. As Dr. Thistlewaite declared at the marina, "This isn't just a cureâit's a revolution. And it starts right here, in Vermilion, Ohio."
The visual truth of the matter.
Editor's Note: Mainstream media continues to miss the point, obsessing over Wayfair's sale while ignoring the real American miracle happening in Vermilion, Ohio. The only thing 'unverified' here is their inability to understand patriotism. Keep it real, keep it Vermilion.
