Followup (who cares?):

Eek. Syracuse resident here and I cursed his name more than a few times in 2012. But he was clearly used by the system and there no excuse for Ms. Hergenhan’s words. Embarrassing.

I’m waiting on the FFVI retrospective and here I find you playing Zelda?

I feel like I just walked in on you cheating on me, en flagrante delicto.

Because we are a city that is being kept alive by the influx of refugees who become new citizens who become new home owners who become new business owners who become parents and raise children, hopefully in a city that doesn’t treat them and people like them like shit.

Ditto. I haven’t been a Catholic for the better part of two decades, but I’d like to think that with the new Pope in charge, things might be somewhat different from what I remember. I’m also living in a city now, as opposed to the rural community in which I grew up.

Yeah, while a traditional Republican politician might say “Jeez, we really got whomped in the popular vote; we’d better govern toward the center if we hope to get re-elected,” the Trump administration is just going full-steam trying to overwhelm our senses and the press with the full blitz of their agenda. There is…

Aw man, when did The Atlantic become crap? I used to like them.

Also, remember when Burneko was the overly-wordy food guy? I like pissed off crusading Burneko a lot better.

Oh, believe me, I know. My entire family lives in Madison and Oneida counties. Going out there during election season and seeing the yards signs is depressing. There is a reason I now live in Syracuse.

Uh, Syracuse is very reliably blue, despite the comments that you might read on our newspaper’s website.

Born to be kings?

I agree. I love the guy and I would have been happy if he had run in 2016, but the future of the Democratic party is meant for other shoes.

So your friend’s family is doing well under the US embargo, then?

Good to hear. I really love reading them and, man, you’d just gotten to the good parts!

What happened to these retrospectives? You’d just gotten to the good stuff!

Damn, that’s heavy.

Personally, I’m happy that no one killed your family. And you should feel free to do whatever you want with your tongue.

You are correct. We absolutely should all have automatic registration with the option to opt-out, like some of our better states.

I’m not calling them anything. I’m using hypothetical examples of whatever type of people you think might not deserve a vote. I’m saying everyone who lives here deserves a vote, no matter what their situation. People who write in Hulk Hogan for president because it’s funny deserve their vote every bit as much as you…

Stupid people, lazy people, poor people, unreasonable people, people without access to transportation, people who have never learned where to go or what to do...

No Dragon Warrior 3? No Duck Tales? No Maniac Mansion? Hogwash!
