If Romney ends up closing the gap and winning, this forum after election day is going to be wildly entertaining. Literally the only Romney supporters we have here are like a gay atheist lawyer who smokes pot, a couple of fifteen years olds, and a few trolls. Versus literally everyone else. An absolutely insane dynamic.

Another great new poster joins the Atlas forum:

I think more and more Americans are finally coming to the realization that Obama is an empty suit.

He was elected with the least experience of any president since Chester Arthur, and has consistently proved his intellect is, lets be kind and say "below average".

His understanding of foreign affairs, basic history and of course economics is at the high school level at best.

I personnally know 100's of people with more qualifications to be president than Obama had.

Now that the luster of "yeah but he's charismatic" is wearing off, perhaps the rock star menality that sways so many of his core constituency will keep them home this year, and we can get back to adults running the country.

Careful, don't mock him - he knows "100's" of United States Senators. Sad

I know I speak for everyone when I say you will truly be missed. Your silly antics made the forum a brighter and better place. Keep on chasing rainbows, guys. We will remember you.

This is a perfectly adequate sample size, if the people polled are members of the Electoral College.

I too tend to dismiss science and most math as witchcraft and voodoo, but that's for reasons entirely apolitical and irreligious.

I found that funny.

Oh, wow. They even manage to tie in unrelated political comments that she made on DailyKos almost eight years ago!

Take note of that, you youngins amassing thousands of posts here that want to run for office someday. I assure you, unless you're as secretive about your identity as, like, Mikado, your opponents will probably connect it to you. (And you can't just delete it either because caches are totally a thing!)

The people here will be saved when Dave finally pulls the plug on the forum to save server money for the rest of the site one day (no one's going to go through archive.org and navigating through dozens of missing pages to try to find a quote they don't even know exists).

Yeah, I think President Snowstalker or whoever will catch a break when Dave decides to get rid of the old shame that is the forum part of the Atlas in 2017, removing all the pony posts from the internet forever.

Facebook's another story, though.

LOL, funny how this goes over Torie's head.

To be fair, The Big Bang Theory is awful.

Really?  Why do you think that?  It seems to be the leading theory these days, with substantial evidence backing it up. I just got a refresher course went I went to watch a program at the Griffith Park Planetarium in LA a few months ago.

Mitt Romney is not a governor. He is an ex-governor. The governor of Massachusetts is Deval Patrick.

In America, ex-politicians are generally called by their most recent office held as a matter of courtesy, which is why (for instance) Bill Clinton is still introduced as President Clinton and Mitt Romney is still Governor Romney.

I've always thought it's a pretty ridiculous custom. You don't see the BBC calling Tony Blair the Prime Minister, for example.

Thankfully the UK doesn't have ridiculous titles given for life.

Reminds me of that one city entrance sign in Frankfurt that's been amusing me for years despite the crass lowbrowness of the statement.

[vandalism]Wir Ficken Jeden[/vandalism]

I used Google translate on this (to find out what "Jeden" meant, "Wir Ficken" was obvious) and as I was checking on the translatio options for each word, noted that an alternative possible translation for Frankfurt was London.

A good reason for anyone to vote against him is the fact that he's a war criminal, although I understand that your unique and special morality may cause you to view such things from a somewhat different angle.
It is, alas, not nearly as unique as it is special.

Together these amused me a lot, though they're not really 'comedy'.. they're almost a very mild zinger against the awful Dead0man, but not quite.  So, I put them here.

Hate to be all Youtube comments section, but it looks like 8 people need to have electricity 'applied' to their genitals.

Shock therapy, amirite?

So if I give a lot of money to charity and a little to The Party might I get a knighthood?
Yes.

God, I hope they make Part III. It would be a two-hour long speech and it would be the most hilarious movie ever made.

With about twelve other boards, I can understand why you'd think the 2012 board was the most appropriate place to post about the death of a non-Presidential candidate.


True, but I'd argue that is the BIG board.

Plus he WAS considered to be a candidate in 1996.

Besides, do you really need another thread about the election?

Ironically, more people can relate to Ryan than Biden. 



In keeping with your bad Ruth dugout analogy, J.J., that's strike two.
