If you really want to hurt your parents, and you don't have the nerve to be a homosexual, the least you can do is go into the arts. But do not use semicolons. They are transvestite hermaphrodites, standing for absolutely nothing. All they do is show you've been to college.

I think I found me my Christmas unbeliever. Pickles the Clown, host of Fight Night, also does not celebrate the holiday, and instead likes to spend it drinking at his house watching TV.

It pleases me that corporate-owned food chains have really crappy food, which means I'd never go there in the first place.  Easiest. Boycott. Ever.

I look forward to moving out, hopefully far enough away that I am not forced to celebrate it. The only semi-redeeming thing about the holiday season is pecan puffs

Boycotting them won't really hurt employees, though, because people who won't eat there will simply eat elsewhere and the jobs will be redistributed.

My thought is that if everyone who isn't eating there anymore sent the CEO a dime, he would have a physical manifestation of how much business he was losing. It would be a satisfyingly insulting way of flipping him off. :lol:
DUDE. I like that idea.

This afternoon, I will find a dime for every time in the last five years we have gotten pizza from the local chain instead of them.

I am not sure they even have them in Portland, so I've never been there, but I will send them a single, symbolic dime in the morning.

If you felt the meltdown in 2009 was epic, you ain't seen nothing yet.

Romney's defeat can be spun any way by any faction in the GOP, meaning the answer will invariably come back to "MOAR IDEOLOGICAL PURITY", meaning the Tea Party may end up looking like the moderate wing of the party compared to what is coming.

I'd like to think I called current events.

The question is, what will the aftermath of trump be like in either event?

He wins and sets a precedent for a future shitshow and people to be crazy.

He loses but did quite well so future candidates try their arm with the same shit and a few refinements. Next candidate ends up being Conrad black or similar.

Seriously, name a candidate that can't fly with this shit. If Don rickles tried it he'd at least do as well as this.

Nine naked Men just walking down the road will cause a heap of trouble for all concerned.

Trump is, probably unknowingly, turning the Republican Party into the party of overt white nationalism.  That's where this ends up.

Oh, I have plans for that fucker.  Just as soon as he steps on his dick in a suitably triumphant fashion.
