This is why I can't support Hillary for the nomination:
Edited on Wed Feb-06-08 04:09 PM by LaraMN
If she gets it, I KNOW there is going to be this *one* obnoxious guy in any given social or work venue that comes up with an irritating "joke" about how we can't elect Hillary because she doesn't "have the balls" to be president.

He's going to repeat the stupid joke ad nauseum, laughing and chortling at his splendid witticism, for a period of months until someone tells him it's stupid, at which point he will become defensive about the validity of his humor and tell the joke even MORE often, in effort to find some dim-witted fool who will laugh at it and endorse his innately deficient comedic skills.

That's why I can't vote for her. The requisite balls-joke moron.

Blame him.

:P

2. Ugh.
We just can't win, can we?

(not referring to the election, in this context.)

3. No, we cannot
No matter who we elect, some assclown will come up with a bad joke about it. :(

4. If they were clever, it would be one thing,
but they're usually not.

7. That's precisely what I was extending...
unless you're being sarcastic, and I'm not picking up on it. Which is possible. Because my brain told me it was Friday this morning, and I put my shirt on backwards.



:D

8. I'm not even arguing with anyone. It's pointless and I just don't care
if people disagree with me.

I DID have loads of fun at my caucus last night! Our turnout was great! I was mildly disgruntled that I didn't get an "I voted" sticker.

:bounce:

11. I'm with ya.
I voted yesterday...no caucus for me. OMG, I just had a horrible mental image...can you imagine a Democratic Caucus in Los Angeles?! That's the stuff of nightmares. :scared:

Anyway, I'm kinda glad that it's completely out of my hands. I'll support whomever gets the nomination, but in the meantime, I'm DONE WITH THE PRIMARY SEASON! :woohoo:

18. I have to get a new vehicle first!
My van's doing a scary shaking thing. (And it's leaking oil, the rear wipers don't work, the engine light is on, and the steering is all kinds of wonked up.)

My husband is currently scoping a replacement. Finally.

I rub the dashboard for good luck every time I drive it (so nothing will fall off- like a wheel or something.)

I do need to make a trip down to visit my little sis and several of my friends. If I make plans to do so, I'll definitely try to instigate a meet-up!

20. Wow, that sounds serious.
I think you should not try to drive down then.

Maybe we need a DU Duluth meet up.

:P

Stay safe and drive careful, just in-case a wheel DOES fall off...

just kidding...

21. I'm ALWAYS up for a Duluth meetup!
I have to drive there all the time anyway, since I work and attend school there.

If not, I'll make it down to the Cities eventually!

:thumbsup:
