What's mildly amusing you today? - Page 100

I feel for her. Hopefully she'll eventually have enough time away from the poison well and enough time with relatively normal people to see that things can be different for her.

The idea that, in order to be happy, all I have to do is wish it, and, VIOLA!

I'm still not happy, but, I am amused. So, closer, I guess...

So maybe I do have a little bit of a vindictive streak.... (no, really?) but I'm really enjoying the thought watching of DT'S "empire" spiral down the toilet after the election. Especially fitting if he ends up in jail but I'm too cynical to expect that

I have called every presidential election correctly since 1964, and I predict that Trump will win. I pray every night that I am wrong this time.

Trump will lose in historic fashion. There will be no doubt whatsoever that the vast majority in this country has NO INTEREST in him being the leader. ZERO chance.

It's the difference between the popular vote and the electoral votes. They may be within a handful of points of each other in the popular vote, but Hillary is going to easily sweep the states with the most electoral votes. Not even close. The only way that won't happen is if her supporters think she has it locked up, so they stay home. But Trump is remaining so terrifying, they will come out in droves.

The NYT this week had a big spreadsheet of all the polls for all the states by several different poling companies, and every single one of them showed Hillary has around a 85% - 95% chance of winning this. The real question now is the Senate. The Democrats have a 50/50 shot of winning the Senate as well.

sorry didn't mean to derail this, I was just amused by my own merciless glee at the possibilities

glatt · 10-20-2016, 11:10 AM

Amusing me:

"Snitches get stitches" coming from my son's substitute English teacher as he allowed them to take their reading quiz with an open book.

They told their regular teacher when she came back the next day and she was horrified. Threw the quiz results away though when she should have given them all 100s for being so brave and honest.

They learned to keep their damn mouth shut.

Clodfobble · 10-20-2016, 12:33 PM

That's hilarious! And sure, sure, good on the kids for being honest. But being a good liar is a practically mandatory skill for leadership, you know.

Clodfobble · 10-26-2016, 08:35 PM

The secondary side of my kids' school has a "from the neck up" Halloween tradition. Students must wear their regular uniforms, but they can wear masks, makeup, wigs, Spock ears, etc...

Except I just received a notification that "due to current events outside the school, clown costumes or makeup will NOT be permitted." So apparently that's still a thing.

What about going dressed as Nemo?

In my professional situation I did some business with a northern company called "Beaver Brokerage Inc." I had to stifle the thought that pimping must be legal in Canada.

(they are actually customs brokers)

Sundae · 10-27-2016, 08:53 AM

Or there are lots of wrecked va-jay-jays in Canada that need to be dealt with?
