I used to chide my sister that she was the fruit of our milkman's loins because she's my younger sister, I imagine everyone does that kind of thing.
Fairly recently, my Mam told me that the milkman had sadly died. I asked my sister how she was bearing up and she shot me a look of pure hatred.
I gave the universal shrug for 'what the fuck did I do?' and went on with my Sunday dinner.
Later the same day it was explained to me that she got really upset each time I said it and actually believed it for a time.
My sister, I mean, my mother always suspected that I was winding her up, one assumes.
Point is that they waited to clue me into the havoc I was wreaking until during my fourth decade on the planet. So I'm basically blameless.
:lol::earl:, torturing a sibling ftw.
In other considerations, we don't actually have a milkman, I'm trying to think back to about 19 years ago to remember if we had one then.

I take that you asked her to do something, then you tried to cleverly justify why she should do it, and that was her reply.

Canada has posted all over the web that they are beefing up the borders just in case Trump wins and Americans try to flee in droves :idunno:
And the Canadian Snowbirds getting ready to head to Florida, the Zika Virus is not there biggest concern :fear:
And see if you can answer this Meg...
If Trump starts taxing Free-Trade countries, or you add American manufactures, now you walk into Walmart or Target and try to buy underwear and it cost you $40(that you use to be able to buy for $5), what does that do to your pocketbook??
Do you think Trump can use his magic wand and close up Car Plants in Canada and move them to the US??
How about the Toyota Plant(also makes Lexus cars) we have in Cambridge Ontario (wow, are they not Japanese Cars!!), that is fully automated and they don't even need to have the lights on to make cars :O
I think they have figured out that investing in automation and removing Unions and Workman's Compensation is a wee bit more efficient..
That is the Future of Car Manufactures...
It really amazed me that Trump picks up a baby brings him to the podium, and says here is the future Construction worker instead of saying here is our future Doctor/Entrepreneur or maybe the next Governor of State??
I didn't understand that one bit, no matter where you live in the Country??
And hitting a subject we talked about a long time back about Pro Choice, do you think the government should have any say in that??
And to let you know the Trump Tower in Toronto is Bankrupt (and he never owned it just his name licensing), plus i would really luv to see his taxes for real:)

I don't subscribe to that. Not voting in what is essentially a two party system certainly registers your malcontent.
It may not be the most effective way of doing so, however, and it may also indicate the superlative comfort mbm's couch provides, but he's still entitled to subsequently bitch about the lack of options.
This is America, dangnabbit.

Re: Last one to post wins the internets
You have to consider that everyone is unable to vote in the 49 states that brought them their nominees, and some can only vote among their own party in their state.
Despite the shit choices, there's always a reason to vote. When you avoid the booth that day, there are other positions and issues up for grabs that you're also neglecting. If you have no idea what's on the ballot, it's probably good that you're staying home. However, the right thing to do is spend at a least a half a day examining your ballot, which can be found online, and then going out and voting on all of it.
EDIT: I've been parroting this every election since the first time I ever voted; I had no idea what I was walking into casting my first ballot. I try to also be helpful, and I put this together for sharing on Facebook a couple years ago regarding the 2014 gubernatorial election, tailored to my region.
I sized it to be mostly illegible here because that's not the point of showing it now.
Attachment 172764
I have no locale now and I don't plan on ever voting in the US again, so that's now behind me.

Re: Last one to post wins the internets
If I am feeling particularly malcontent later, I may let my 6 y/o twins fill out our two ballots. My son with Down's is just as capable of choosing intelligently as anyone involved in narrowing down the candidates to this fucking point...

Yes, regardless of my cynicism and disgust, I have two ballots here. Issues that I have a valid opinion in will be properly filled out.

The phrase 'objectively biased' made me choke on a Dorito :earl:
Also, what does this mean? "You have to consider that everyone is unable to vote in the 49 states that brought them their nominees, and some can only vote among their own party in their state."
It seems mental.

Objectively biased, meaning I don't hide my bias and it could be clearly seen, which is a good thing, but all of the analysis was limited to space, which is a bad thing. I'm not a fan of subversive bias in political commentary.
Other question: the primaries and caucuses are an important part of the election, but you can only vote in your state. In some states, you'd have to be registered as a democrat or republican to vote on a nominee (closed primary). This means that it's hard to feel like one contributes anything in deciding which candidates come to the fore, because it's you in your state, which has it's own rules in determining delegates, and it just gets more convoluted from there. I would have liked Bernie Sanders as the Democratic nominee, but Hillary is just fine given the alternative. Context, you know.
Lastly, are you serious that you want to read it? Like, I'm thinking you're probably serious about wanting to read about local politicians in a two-year old state election because you are, in fact, an accountant. I have a PDF

Yeah, for the reason that it's posted but I can't read it.
Like if you'd said; 'anyone want to read about my local politicians in a two-year old state election?' I probably wouldn't have, but now ... .
Gmail, dewd.
Thanks for the middle paragraph. It makes it more clear. The political process over there is something of a mystery to me.
Objectively biased means that the author of the phrase either doesn't know what objective means or has misinterpreted the word biased. In short it's an oxymoron.
Overtly biased is what I think you mean.

Overtly works, yes, but I went with objectively as opposed to subjectively biased, where the bias is only in the eye of the beholder. It's the nature of political discourse these days in the US, where everyone screams bias at each other as if it's a crucial point.

Okay more words but it's still not objectively biased though, is it.
I mean, it can't be :blink:

Your Google+ profile pic pops up to greet me when you email.
It's my email client's doing as my favourite pic of you is the one where you're reclining on the hood of a Buick or something.

If I understand correctly, you're saying that's exactly what you've been doing, right?
You naturally went for the younger version of me because you are subconsciously imagining the massive sperm count.

Re: Last one to post wins the internets
Fairly sure I got them from here but anything is possible.
Btw, I'm not sure how a massive sperm count would be a sexually-attractive trait to anyone but a broody spinster like Squeams, for example.
Plz do teach me the ways of the massive cawk fancier so that I might understand the wanton ways of this wide world.

She's good, dude. She might have even got married by now to some new chap who she'd never mentioned on the bored.
I almost know this as I was getting daily updates to my main email account from her facebook until I figured out how to turn them off about 2 years ago.

Staying home and not voting means that nobody knows what your true intent was, and everyone can interpret your inaction to fit their narrative.
If you don't want to vote for either one, do a write-in campaign for Donald Duck or hand in a blank ballot. At least that way "they" know that you consciously chose neither one.

Handing in a blank ballot is open to interpretation. You might have been too high, or too slow, or too clever. Who's counting those anyway.

It's biology. Youth is associated with fertility, but if you insist on being a straight man despite never using Tinder whilst being familiar with Grinder mechanics, then you were thinking about my ripe eggs.
I might not know how eggs work.

In other words, if you don't do anything to it is it actually spoilt.
I suppose if you do everything for it then it is spoiled.

Re: Last one to post wins the internets
Background, Lord Drummond Young, one of the Court of Session Judges who upheld HMRC's appeal against the Rangers Tax case is going to do a talk on the decision. Obviously aimed at adders and lawists.
I copy this from a hun forum, it's actually quite measured but it ends geniously.
"I work in tax for a big 4 accountancy firm and get access to these sessions for free as part of my membership of the CIOT. It's common place to discuss ongoing cases in the profession as our clients want to discuss things that might potentially affect their business. These cases can set precedents and businesses need to be prepared to make changes to their processes. Therefore it's not uncommon to discuss ongoing cases at these events.
What I would say is that it's weird for a judge who heard an appeal on a case that is still ongoing to discuss his findings publicly. I've never heard of it happening so would be interested to know the lethalities of it."
