Notes on a Debate

I watched the debate last night.
At this point if you are wondering "what debate?", I want you to remove your hand from the mouse or keyboard and bitch slap yourself across the face, now go to cnnpolitics.com, sleep on your open computer, retrieve information via osmosis during sleep, get an educated opinion, vote.

I did quite a bit of yelling at the TV last night as well. I should've been writing down what I was yelling, but I'm new to blogging so I will in the future.
I'd watch it all again but truthfully it was boring.

Notes
  • McCain looks kind of like he's had a stroke
  • I don't give a shit if you want to increase the tax deduction for children from $3500 to $7000 because I will not have children in the next 4 years
  • Really?! minus one point for mentioning 9/11
  • Double the Peace Core?! Interesting.... keep talking....
  • Lights?! I was born before electricity, so if you say I'm taking too long then I'll wrap it up, I don't know how to gage the lights.
  • "This is a yes or no answer." "Maybe."-you're not funny. stop laughing.
  • Woah, the middle class ends at $200,000/$250,000?! That must be per family, because if I were making that much money I'd say I were in the upper class. and i would own a home and get a massage weekly.
  • Going to a discussion with preconditions is so second grade, "I'm only going to show up to the talk if Sally agrees to stop flirting with Bobby in geometry class. If she agrees to that then we can discuss the possibility of trading colored pencils." Stupid way to look at talks.

That's all I can remember yelling about. I did start making an apple/pumpkin pie/cobbler thing near the end which took most of my attention off of what was going on to trying not to cut myself.

I'll try and take real life notes (note to self: start writing down Notes to self).

Starting Slow

i can't spell. yes my 1st grade teacher told me to take the word "can't" out of my vocabulary. there's just a few things i'm not amazing at; one of them is pull ups, the other is spelling.

now

i'd like to comment on an article i read in the newspaper titled, "Europe isn't U.S. with an Accent"

ohh really! god damn!

the articel goes downhill from there. i was once told the newspaper is written at a 6th grade reading level but even a 6th grader would agree they could've written a more informative article.
the first paragraph is as follows, "The first thing you notice about Europe is that it's like this whole other country. Actually, it's several other countries, maybe even half a dozen."

really?! thanks for that since i've never seen a map before.

selected quotes:
-Because it is a foreign country, Europe takes some getting used to.

EUROPE IS NOT A FOREIGN COUNTRY! europe is made up of many foreign countries, "i'm going to the foreign country of europe later this year."- no. no one says that.

-As you might expect, Europeans eat some pretty strange stuff. It's delicious but you can't pronounce any of it.

this is why people hate americans. you can't say it, so don't even try and while you're at it act better than everyone around you.

-Lots of people speak English in Europe. However, it's often mangled and mispronounced. You have to listen hard to get what they're saying.

did the McCain-Palin campaign write this article? jesus people.

i wonder how many people found this article to be informative and a decient read?
and of those people how many were older than 10?
i don't think of 'our country' that often because when i do it increases my blood pressure and makes me want to move to the great country of europe.
