I missed the debate AND Brandon. Which is okay with me, actually — I was having dinner with my sister, in town from CT.

That photo of Romney is just begging for a silly caption.

I’d like to see it photoshopped so his suit is replaced with a labcoat and he’s standing in a 1950s laboratory. “Bah! Those simpering old fools at the academy laughed at me! Laughed! But I’ll show them, ahahahaha!”

I could see those hands be turned to tentacles and then photoshop a bunch of other things and he could look like the Dread Lord Cthulhu

pbb, he did indeed use that line. Though he tactfully refrained from β€œthe jerk store called, they’re running out of you.”

You know the President, always tactful and diplomatic.

Nah nah nah. Romney’s clearly saying “No, seriously guys, it was THIS BIG.”

The identity of the Big Thing is left as an exercise for the reader.

I think it looks like he’s picking lemons, or some other low-hanging fruit.

I get the feeling that a Romney presidency would have us screwing around in the middle east until it got a good enough excuse for invading Iran.

So, W 2.0, but with possible nukes and even more institutionalized misogyny and poor-hatin’.

I was thinking the same thing about the picture. Story time with Uncle Mitt, entitled “that time I was attacked by two ostriches”.

I’m rubbish with captioning though. D:

I think it’s more “rise my minions” but I’ve been playing a necromancer in Guild Wars 2 for the past 3 hours. πŸ™‚

Mitt Romney is Slenderman? πŸ˜€

(It’s not exactly anywhere near a representation of Slenderman, but it reminded me of him at least)

I spend a lot of time at work thinking about structural issues surrounding politics, but when I get home I just end up writing about how politics might work in The Legend of Korra. Though on the whole I think I get more relevant stuff said in those than are said in presidential debates.

That’s a quote from the time when The Simpsons was a good show.

Yeah, Stephanie Miller plays it all the time when they talk about doddering politicians who meander with verbal nonsense instead of saying anything.

Who you thought won is probably who you’re planning on voting for.
