"To put [undecided voters] in perspective, I think of being on an airplane. The flight attendant comes down the aisle with her food cart and, eventually, parks it by your seat. 'Can I interest you in the chicken?' she asks. 'Or would you prefer the platter of shit with bits of broken glass in it?' To be undecided in this election is to pause for a moment and then ask how the chicken is cooked."

-David Sedaris

I'd say I can't wait for the election to be over so the hatred would go away, but of course it won't. :/

I'd say I can't wait for the election to be over so the stupidity would go away, but of course it won't. Gah, what an idiot woman. She claimed she was attacked and robbed by black Obama supporters because she had a McCain bumpersticker and that they carved a B into her face. Was a total lie, of course. She's been arrested. .

How amazingly depressing it is to see this side of people.

Medical: On that post I made two nights back, I'm nearly certain it's just muscle pulls. Haven't gone to the doctor, but it seems to be getting better.

FFXI: Hit DNC 25 tonight. Partied for 4.5 hours to get three levels. Blah. So very tired of the job, but I'd like to get it to subjob levels and be done with it.

Isn't it? :/ I can't imagine living somewhere where that'd be an okay thing to wear.

In "the stupidity"'s defense, the article does state that she has had prior (and likely current) mental health problems. I know, I know, the joke is 'If you vote McCain this election, you'd have to be mentally unsound!', but this woman actually is. I wouldn't hold this one over the head of humanity.

I think "the hatred" is a joke, something like those shirts that say 'Your retarded' that are tongue-in-cheek mocking the wearer. That said, whether it's genuine or not, it's in poor taste, it's crudely unfunny, and worst of all, there are multiple grammar issues!

I'd like to say that, but it'd be mean! :P And okay, yeah, you have a point.

I hope you're right, but I suspect not. (Especially when paired with the bumper sticker.)

and worst of all, there are multiple grammar issues!

Hee!

No related to the post, but I find your LJ icon both infinitely cute and incredibly disturbing. Well done, Thistle, you've done it again. >.>
