    Some people do go high. Nobody who hangs out here, obviously, but there are people (on all sides) who don't stoop to name calling, alternative facts, trolling, etc. etc.

    You can recognize them because they are the ones who aren't on the internet at midnight being snarky.

    If you ever tell anyone I apologized for anything again so help me.....MY WIFE COULD SEE THIS AND EXPECT ME TO APOLOGIZE TO HER FOR THE FIRST TIME. If she thought about all my "apologies" it would be like The Usual Suspects when she remembered how I phrased things so I really don't apologize.
    Fuck.

    The reason I apologized is because I reverted back to my old habit of going right for what I think is the lowest thing I can say. If I keep doing that nobody will ever talk to me.

    Haha. Well worded. But, I apologized back to you. I thought we had a bit of an understanding. I still hold tight with that apology.

    And ps. I know everything you just wrote was in jest. At least most of it.....hehe.

    All of it was in jest.. All good, I've spent more time apologizing to her than eating breakfast over the last 16 years.

    I had to Google that. Sounds too intricate for my aging brain. I have 1984 sitting on my nightstand and I need to finally read it after all these years.

    Not for everybody, I will say. It is a tricky read. 1984 is probably a better place to start. David Foster Wallace will make you want to stop reading a few hundred times, much like my posts. But, when you finish, you will be glad you did.

    I'm sorry, has someone woken up from a weeklong hangover of drinking liberal tears to find that people are pissed off at the world going down in flames?

    My problem with reading has always been that I would stay up all night. I went to sleep way too late last night but that was early compared to when I used to read all the time.

    Or play BF3 like I did a few years ago. I guess I have an addictive personality.

    Believe it or not, "go high" isn't the motto of every one of the 75% of voting age Americans that didn't vote for Mumbles McGee.

    I say go wherever the fuck you want.

    Have you ever had a real pissing contest? It's loads of fun. There is this bathroom in New Orleans where... well nevermind.

    I will have no part of Assholity . Schmos such as municipal administrators and their brood that deserve it can take the honors.
