So it’s ten days until the election now, and I cannot wait until this nightmare is over. Talk about it, or whatever else you want to talk about. No trolls, MRAs, Trumpkins, etc.

Ten Days Now: Election, etc Open Thread
New from the Washington Post:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trump-boasts-of-his-philanthropy-but-his-giving-falls-short-of-his-words/2016/10/29/b3c03106-9ac7-11e6-a0ed-ab0774c1eaa5_story.html
Short version: Donald Trump isn’t a philanthropist, but he’s careful to play one on TV.
@Axe Bollox:
Oh, you stupid, stupid little man!
That was in response to and lampooning your ‘Hillary’s problems are all due to misogyny!’ claim. If you believe that then you’ll probably also believe Wasserman Schultz’ sacking was due to being female/Jewish.
Learn to read. Or are you just plain pissed?
@Megalibrarygirl:
I will if they will. Not hard to understand.
Megalibrarygirl, you see that Gert is a mere puppet, pulled by the strings by Mammotheers. Gert has no will of their own, but only does the will of others.
I think that must be a sad way to live, but such is the case, apparently.
All the people I know who support Bernie are middle-class college educated white guys who lean left on economic issues for whatever reason. Poor people, women, minorities, and people with disabilities seem to care more about making sure Trump doesn’t win.
@Jack
Yeah, I get that, but does Hairt McTwatpanties?
@Hairt McTwatpanties
Everyone got that, yo. Not the point
Her getting fired was due, in large part, to misogyny… against Clinton. She won. That’s not possible, she’s a girl. Must be shenanigans afoot. What’s this? The head of an organization was in favor of its figurehead being a member of that organization instead of some rando opportunist? That’s why our team lost. That’s the ticket! Off with her (metaphorical) head!
When I’m pissed, I shake. I’m not shaking. I suppose, your shit’s too transparently stupid to get frustrated over *shrugs*
It baffles me why anyone thinks there is something unusual in the Democratic party favoring a Democrat for its nomination over a non-Democrat. The party would have been perfectly within its rights to declare that Bernie Sanders wasn’t eligible to run for the nomination at all, being that he’s not a Democrat. The Democratic party is entitled to be represented in the Presidential election by a Democrat.

True, true.
EDIT: Oh, I noticed you used “twat”, and last time I checked that’s a slur for vagina or something. IDK. I’ve listened to too much British LPers that use that word a lot so I’ve been trying to wean myself off using that by saying “twit” instead.
@ Gert
Be the bigger person. It doesn’t cost anything to be kind and listen.
Also, Gert, please answer my other concerns. Thanx.
@POM
Agreed. After several drinks I agree that of course they went w/ the lifelong Democrat who has pushed for change for over 30 years. And I thought that before the drinks too.

@PoM
Ooooh, I thought I remember seeing something about “twat” on here. And panties.
Have I…have I mentioned I have a terrible memory?
I’m sorry, Axe.
Considering I am a west-coaster and 90’s kid by birth, I like “my dudes”.
Though many people consider “dudes” to be a masculine term, so do with that what you will. As with most words, time and place.
Except that he agrees with the description of events and only disagrees that it should be considered rape.
Man I forgot about Good Burger! I loved that movie when I was a kid. I think I still have the VHS somewhere.
Damn, what happened here?
Gert, you’re banned for being a dick and annoying everyone in a no-troll thread.
Thanks David.
@Dreadnaught: That was a reunion they did on Jimmy Fallon.
@Jack
We’re all good, fam!
Wait, Hairt’s gone!?

I’m going to leave this here too.
Aww man, I slept through a MRALtdown?
Oh well, he’ll be back.
@Paradoxy
Holy crap, that was a yuuuge dose of nostalgia. Good thing I still have my VHS player, I just need to find the tape.
Edit: Shit I forgot I can just download it.
@Handsome Jack
That we’re a bunch of monkeys dancing to Axe’s tune.
Thank you, David.
I used to love watching All That with my kids. I was pleased when Kenan Thompson started on SNL, because I thought he was hilarious on AT.
Everyday French with Pierre Escargot made me laugh more than my kids.
@joekster (missed the edit window cos tablrts being a pain)
Siblings
Good Burger makes me wanna watch All That which makes me wanna watch Kenan and Kel which makes me wanna have some orange soda.
That is some subliminal marketing right there.
(Also makes me wanna watch The Amanda Show and My Cousin Skeeter.)
@Dalilama: siblings is probably the best term. Doesn’t have the same religious connotations, but that’s not a bad thing. Thanks.
@David: thanks. I found ignoring Gert amusing, but you did label this one non-troll. People really should respect those things before they come in here swinging.
