I was weirdly all onboard the GOP train in 2000 when I could first vote. >_>

Enthusiasm ebbed and flowed since then, didn't vote Republican for President in 2016 and voted purple in the midterms. I'm really sick of having Jim Jordan as my congressman. >_>

I mean its definitely kind of a gamble but it isn't like you have NO insurance otherwise. Always the possibility of being seriously hurt or having a bad sickness, but if you are most likely never going to go to the doc at all or maybe just like once to get antibiotics for a basic illness you'll save tons of money. >_>

I was obsessed with my Achievement points when it was new.

Definitely care far, far less now. Usually don't really pay attention to them anymore, but if I really, really like a game sometimes I'll take a look and if they aren't too crazy try to get all of them. Some new stuff, but I tend to do that with old games that get re-released, like the Final Fantasies and Mega Man stuff, etc.

"Alright, what do you want from me to make sure you don't vote to impeach me in the senate?" is what I'm expecting


Yeah but even if Mittens and a few others defect, they won't have 2/3rds needed to kick him out, so he doesn't need to worry about that.

Although there is a theory of just a couple of them defect they could demand a secret ballot in the senate in which Trump is expected to lose like half the GOP votes, because they realize he's terrible but are a bunch of cowards, apparently.

Man I hope not because I feel like even if they somehow managed to get Dems to go along with a secret ballot that ballot still wouldn't have the votes to impeach him all it does is absolve the republicans of any consequences of pubic going against Trump and take away the Dems overall goal of having the public see the Republicans wave Trump's corrupt dick in the country's faces and say "Nah, we don't care how corrupt he is, he's getting off because he's our guy".


Yeah, but if its the only way to get enough GOP votes, I'll take it.

But the real answer is heaven is a place not made of physical flesh so what purpose is an animal there?

That's new to me. Heaven is depicted as a place made of clouds where everyone is wearing a gown, has wings, and plays a lyre. Knowing myself, I'd be worse than Cacofonix. But if I am not even corporeal, then what do I do then? Float around like as a spirit that does.... spirit things? Maybe that will be like being a sapient weed cloud, because if I'm just an ethereal mist floating by in a world made of endless cloud and sky for all of eternity, I would prefer to be permanently high off my mind.


I'm no theologian, but to the best of my knowledge there is no mention or white robes and clouds and stuff. Dunno where that came from. >_>

Kind of like the popular idea that hell is Satan's cool hideout and he's the boss of it, and he and his demons are their torturing souls. Pretty sure scripture says Satan was cast to the earth and will remain here until the events of Revelation where then he will be the one being punished in the lake of fire, not the one doing the punishing.

Not worth ruining your friendships, etc.

If her relationship is really bad then it needs to end on its own, not because you interjected yourself. If it DOES end and she's interested, then, well, yeah, still awkward, but wait for it to be over before moving in.

But you don't want a marriage that is at kind of 50/50 chance to tank just because in her weakness she thinks she can jump off of that and onto another relationship when that may not even work out long term anyway.

Yeah at most I think he'd hang in there to finish the term if at all possible, but maybe at least not seek re-election.

My reaction would be: "Cool."

I know the popular opinion is Pence is worse, but, eh, I think he has more respect for the rule of law and isn't going to get his base all riled up with stupid comments every 10 minutes, so that's an improvement.

And at this point, he basically would only have a year left, if he ran for President he'd never win and I could see him just hanging out for the term and not even running.

Can't imagine what life as a teenager is with Facebook/Instagram/etc. It used to me you could leave the bullshit behind when got back home from school, but social media makes it so that it follows you. You used to be insecure if you didn't have enough friends to hang out at lunch with. Now you get low self-esteem if you have less than 1000 followers on social media.


Yeah I'm glad that stuff wasn't a thing yet. Plus I can imagine girls that I awkwardly had a crush on and could barely speak to (and thus never really did), I'd probably have gotten up the courage to send them some cringy FB message or something. >_>

But I also think that for casually dating/getting to know someone, it's unreasonable for them to expect you to make an investment in her children.


Yeah I mean until it's getting serious its not really fair to the kids to introduce a new father-figure type person in their lives when there is a good chance they'll be out of the picture soon anyway.

Plus it sort of depends how involved the father still is. Totally out of the picture? Making occasional cameos? Or totally trying to be with his kids as much as possible and being a good dad even though relationship with the mother didn't work out? Definitely don't want to step on a dude's toes if he's legit being as good a dad as he can under the circumstances.

But obviously if its getting serious and long term that's a different story.

Mike gets on my nerves, though.

Like I guess if I had a following and could make a living or at least substantial extra money streaming I would, but he's like a 40 year old guy crying and whining and screaming like an 8 year old at a video game for hours on end.

I'm a big Bond fan and only a handful I just don't like very much. I voted for Quantum of Solace but Diamonds Are Forever and The Man with the Golden Gun are contenders.

By no means is Never Say Never Again great, but I'd probably put it above those three. Which is weird for an "unofficial" film, but I dunno, maybe the charm of having Connery back one last time a dozen years later makes me elevate it a bit. Thunderball is overall better but I liked how NSNA tweaked some things.
