I think nowadays it's kind of like trying to make a distinction between a dick and an asshole, even though as curse words they mean the exact same thing.

He made me look things up in the Klingon dictionary

...Also he kind of came up with a democratic version of the spartan duel-king system to reflect today's economical needs. He's a keeper. Which I suppose is what cellars are for...

After my nine year old went to bed, I tried to watch the latter half of last night's 'debate'...fell asleep in the middle of things...clear indication of my 'I don't give a fuck'...knowing the 'analysis' that would dominate the news this morning, I opted for cartoons instead...let's just hire the commie bastid (any of 'em) already so we can get back to eatin' doughnuts.

bastid = bastard

"great minds think alike"

Sometimes...

I'm gonna be hard-pressed to build up a sufficient amount of 'give a shit' so as to gut my way through the soon-to-come dem 'debates'.

Thinkin' I'll probably sleep through those too.

"What about the bitch?"

Just one of a whole whack of folks who I wouldn't give you a plug nickel for.

So looking over the polls, I am rethinking this position:

Would Americans actually vote for Bernie Sanders in the general elections?

People said something similar about JFK, who was Catholic, thinking that as President he would defer to the Pope on matters of national importance. The religion barrier was broken 50 years ago. If a candidate can convince the voters that for public matters nationality comes first even if a mainstream religion comes first in private, that person has as good a chance as any.
