Ask me anything.

And get me a stiff drink while you're at it.

This whole deal is making me nauseous
Cynicism is a blank check for failure.

Lies

- So the New World Order does not actually exist?
- Oh it exists, and how!
Ask the slaves whose labour built the White House;
Ask the slaves of today tied down to sweatshops and brothels to escape hunger;
Ask most women, second class citizens, in a pervasive rape culture;
Ask the non-human creatures who inhabit the planet:
whales, bears, frogs, tuna, bees, slaughtered farm animals;
Ask the natives of the Americas and Australia on whose land
you live today, on whose graves your factories, farms and neighbourhoods stand;
ask any of them this, ask them if the New World Order is true;
they'll tell you plainly: the New World Order... is you!

Why?

Why did I vote?  I'm an idiot who enjoys acts of futility.

Why did it make me nauseous?  Because I already know the Tea Party/GOP looney tune LePage is going to be our next Governor.  I know it's because the Democrats elected a limp fish as their nominee, and because she was so (politically) unattractive, the vote was split between her and the leading Independent candidate.  (We actually had 3 Independents running this year). 

So the guy is going to win but it will end up that 60%+ of the public will be voting against him.

Sounds like a recipe for win doesn't it?

I'm going after work, the line was insane and the place where I'm assigned to vote is also a food bank/homeless shelter and all the people were being turned out for the day when I went there this morning. 

I'm sick over this whole thing as well.  Every candidate we have is a pathetic excuse for a human being no matter what party they are with.  UGH!  :x

That's pretty damn shitty.  And an excellent metaphor, though I suspect the location was not chosen for it's poetic irony.

It's a church, which voting in a church to me is just  :|

I'm not upset that it's a homeless shelter or food bank or any of that, I just didn't want to be stuck in the crowd or be begged for money which is what happened last election.  :sad:

Some facebook statuses from today:

"Go and vote today, someone dumber than you is doing it and you need to negate their opinions."

"Dressing up all nice so I can go on a date with the most abused and neglected girl I know.  Her name is Democracy."

"How appropriate election day and garbage day are the same; I get to leave some rotten filth on the sidewalk and give other rotten filth a new office."

From my feed

QuoteI think this sums up the mood of the American people at the moment:
Me, while making phone calls for the GOP: 'Hello sir, I'm calling from the Connecticut Republican party, just reminding you to vote on Tuesday.'
Angry voter: 'What the **** does it matter, they're all crooks anyway! And you, you are worthless, just worthless!'
Me: ...'Ah, yes, well, thank you for your time, sir...'

Do you really think that Cutler doesn't have a chance to beat LePage?

Some yahoo yelled at me, saying 'GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH', and I thought, "I'm feeling generous today.  Why not BOTH?"

I voted.

Then I pooped and farted.

I voted for him.  I want him to win.  But while he has surged ahead of Libby, he was still doubled digits behind LePage in the latest polling.  I think he has an outside chance but I wouldn't put any serious money on it.

Mailed mine.  Fuck everyone's fucking poll happy nonsense.  I haven't gotten so much shit since the last blood drive.

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:
