omg, you guys.

[Chovexani]

I just realized. One time I was hall monitor, in the 8th grade. And I was captain of the middle school volleyball team, despite being a total fucking nerd.

I can so totally be Vice President of the US now!!

THANKS, SARAH! :loveya:

(If anyone else wants to list their own qualifications for being VP in light of this historic day, feel free.)

[bluesbassman]

1. I once read an NRA pamphlet!

Am I in?

[Chovexani]

2. More than in!

You're Secretary of Defense!

[bluesbassman]

5. Alright! Now where's Iran again?

:woohoo:

[Chovexani]

8. Over here

I think it's one of those colored little islands? :shrug:

[Stump]

115. You're qualifications are lame.

I'm an NRA member...I've got TONS more experience than you! I'll trample you during the debates! :rofl:

[bluesbassman]

118. See, that's where you're wrong Stump...

You equate actual membership in the NRA as a qualification. Understand that as a card carrying member of the NRA, you are familiar with how the organization works, thus disqualifying you on the grounds of actual experience. I on the other hand, have merely read a pamphlet, thereby giving me the utmost in qualification: Ignorance!

I look forward to our debate, where your knowledge and experience will be confounded by my supreme ignorance, and you will be exposed for the card carrying NRA elitist that you are. Ha!

[Stump]

119. But alas...

I did stay in a Holiday Inn last night.

[IndianaJones]

3. tell me if its worth my time to watch "Paprika", nerd. nt.

And I get the coolest hat.

Don't be hatin' on me.

[Chovexani]

27. For sure.

We'll even get you a Viziermobile.

[Ikonoklast]

41. I can haz big weiner to go with big hat?

[Chovexani]

46. It's the only thing worthy of your gravitas

The bird, however, is up to you.

[Oeditpus Rex]

6. I was alive when Alaska had that big-assed earthquake

17. I won the broad jump in seventh grade

Mainly because Beverly Friedman dropped an earthworm down the back of my gymsuit - normally chess is about as athletic as I get.

Which reminds me - I was President of my high school chess club.

And Treasurer for the drama club.

Put me in charge of HHS. Please!

:rofl:

[Chovexani]

23. Wow, you're almost overqualified!

Hey, can you get in touch with Beverly? Cause she sounds like she'd make a totally awesome Secretary of the Interior, what with the handling of worms and all.

Can I be something? :hi:

[Chovexani]

32. Deck ape?

:patriot:

[moriah]

45. Uh... I was the youngest System Operator of a BBS in Arkansas, and the first "juve"?

Aka, juvenile, young person on BBSes interacting with adults.

(It was kinda freaky, I got ahold of a BBS list and called one of them.... turned out it wasn't the kind a 12 year old should call. I was honest about my age and phone number in the registration, and the SysOp was watching on the local console. He took over the session and browsed me to the adult section. I disconnected the line, and he called my house. He thought it was someone making a fake account, he didn't actually think I was 12. He was rather surprised and said "Honey, you need to be more careful, and don't call here again.")

[Chovexani]

47. Wow.

With that kind of experience, you should probably be a Congressional page.

(And, in seriousness, I remember running into some questionable BBSes when I was 12 also :hug:)

[moriah]

63. Yeah, it was a bit odd...

But that was in '92.

What I can say was that the adults in our local BBS community did believe in protecting children. While yes it was freaky that a weirdo had my phone number and address and knew I was 12, the guy didn't do anything with it other than scare me with the phone call.

And when a person who I trusted from the community crossed a line and I told someone about it, that person was completely banned from the entire BBS scene in our city. I told one person, literally just one person. That person happened to be another SysOp on our Fidonet group. He contacted every SysOp in the area to let them know that someone was harassing minors.

It's sad that pervs can't be policed so easily anymore.

[Tektonik]

49. I play world of warcraft and watch lots of project runway

Better get moving! I hear there's a hurricane out there! Don't worry, though. I doubt it'll cause much damage!

[KitchenWitch]

104. But I do not want to get my hands dirty...

[JTG of the PRB]

105. Who said anything about getting your hands dirty?

Just wait until the hurricane dissipates, head down to the areas hit hardest for a couple of hours, bring the press with you, take lots of pictures, and tell the people that you feel your pain, that help is on the way, and that they will not be left behind. Then, you get back on your chartered plane, return to Washington, and celebrate a job well done.

See? No need to get dirty!
