Yeah, this strikes me as pretty mild. Whereas at my friend’s wedding last year, the minister mentioned during the ceremony that he has presided over her older sister’s wedding, and then made some pointed comments about her younger sister & YS’s boyfriend not being engaged yet. Like, dude, stay on topic here.

This might be rhetorical but ... what exactly is there to praise, anyway? He hasn’t even done anything except appoint neo nazis and climate deniers, and whine on Twitter.

I like creative! But I definitely went to the literal interpretation of that first, as is my wont.

Then from the sound of it, I’d say it’s more of a blessing than a curse.

I quite agree, this sounds perfect to me.

Ah okay. Derp. Can I blame the fact that I have only had my coffee for six minutes?

Fortunately for the boyfriend and me, we’re going to my parents’ house where the only other guests are my sister and her two delightful daughters (both of whom are at the perfect age where they play together and let the adults so their own thing). I’m sure we’ll talk politics, but we’re all on the same page, so it…

... whaaaaaaaaat??

My favorite.

My favorite was “has flavors.” That was it.

See also using tobacco as a descriptor. I had someone gasp and say, “YOU MEAN LIKE CIGARETTE BUTTS?”

ME TOO. :-(

Nailed it.

I LOVE their Hell or High Watermelon — DELICIOUS.

MILLIHELENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I put mine on my ballot stubs. I’m keeping them forever.

Is that you, Dr. Malcolm?

No, I totally get this. I’ve been avoiding drinking specifically because I’m not sure I can handle it right now. Alcohol doesn’t numb my feelings; it makes me feel them more acutely. I don’t really want to feel this anger more intensely than I already do.

I think a lot of it has to do with logos and candidates names. Similar to wearing a pantsuit, I think the “nasty woman” pin was probably OK because maybe it didn’t display the candidate’s name or logo?

Very strict, and I totally get it.
