    Less beating off perhaps?

    Actually, you know what? Fuck cutting this.

    It's not practical; we're all checking menus at random times, looking for shit and slowing the game down, it's just how it works.

    We'll just be interesting as fuck.

    Now where is Tan? Audio need get done. And stuff.

    It'd be a step in the right direction as far as educating the unwashed masses and preventing the horrible waves of misinformation and outright lies being perpetrated and taken in. And then propagated further much like those youtube comments mentioned earlier.

    When things are being clearly and properly shown/explained to people, they should be more able to reach a proper conclusion. Such as "this system of government is stupid and accomplishes nothing". Or perhaps "wow, those guys are douchebags". Or even "what a load of incompetent fuckwits"

    It's usually easier to make something happen if there's a more widespread forum for it.

    Currently, people who are making sense are drops of piss in a swimming pool of shit.

    Unless there's some serious backroom dealings involved with several extreme badasses, it seems to me a more gradual logic based change is the only way to get things on track.

    Unless there's an armed uprising, but considering the average gun owner, I don't see that turning out any better.

    That sort of passive attitude doesn't fix a thing though.

    Beyond nagging the local senator or congressmen, there isn't much I can do. Hell, I don't even have the right to nag them, since I'm current unemployed and therefore not paying taxes.

    God, I remember when I thought that being President meant "You're the boss of everyone"

    No, it really means "You're the bitch of almost everyone, except for like 2 times every 4 years. Then you laugh until they undo all of it in a matter of months after you leave office"

    Checks and Balances isn't bad in what it's supposed to accomplish, it's just shitty in how it's implemented. Horrendously so.

    Even bosses have bosses.

    And in this case, the bosses outnumber him, hate him, and want to see him fail.

    And while he does have options to tell his bosses to die in a fire, he refuses.

    In summation, don't try to be president, become a lobbyist!

    Still affects you. The unemployment issues are somewhat government related. And while you cannot pay taxes, if you had a job you would be. Considering how glacially things move in politics, you'd probably be working for a while before anything got through.

    If it gets through at all. Which it probably won't.

    Doesn't hurt to try though!

    They're all meat.

    Pepperoni and Bacon, Pepperoni and Sausage, Sausage and Extra Cheese.

    I sometimes contemplate getting one with mushrooms, but I always back down even though it only costs me 5.99 a pizza.

    Pepperoni and bacon sounds delicious.

    Although sausage and cheese does sound charming.

    But bacon.

    I NEVER SAY NO TO BACON.
