I want to know what makes people feel entitled to say that voting either way is bad because their both corrupt. Not to point out tdoc here because theres at least three more on these boards alone.

But the idea that you have to come out and let everyone else know you're not voting because you don't like the choices seems to be to be the same thing as walking into a restaurant and announcing that you don't like eating there.

The topic is about the debates, and presumably the larger election, if you don't care what happens I want to know why you think we all need to know that you don't care what happens.

It wouldn't be politics if it wasn't corrupt.

The Vice Presidential debates were unnecessary.
It was like someone trying to prove the existence of God; you didn't have to watch to know what went down.
On another note, I think the parody of the V.P. debates was head-on.
Especially when Queen Latifah (in the parody) said, of Sarah Palin, "As long as she doesn't faint, get sick, or run out screaming it'll be a tie."

It would be quite a misfortune for the state if John McCain died and Sarah Palin was elected President.
That would just suck so bad.
You betcha'!

Unhappy

When i first ever came to this site and these forums, i was absolutely thrilled!

My expectations were:

that i might talk to younger folks about their music ~ i have a 30 year old son, and occasionally am subjected to his tastes, which are sometimes surprisingly good;

that i’d be introduced to music i missed, back in the day, and re-introduced to music i’d forgotten;

and that i’d be able to goof around and have fun.

i’m a stoner ~ have been since the age of 17 and, despite some long vacations from it, will be until the day i die. i don’t take myself very seriously and i don’t take life too seriously, either. The thing is, everyone who has ever known me EXPECTS me to be a serious person ~ i started school when i was 4 years old, in french Morocco, at a french Moroccan school. i was already reading newspapers and every book i could get my hands on, along with being able to do advanced math. i was and am a genius, and everyone thought i should get out there and change the world. One big prob. I didn’t see “the world” the way they did, and my ideas of changing it didn’t agree in the least with theirs, so as far as everyone is concerned, i threw away and
wasted what i was given. Some of y’all are going through something like this, i know ~ good grades, parents expectations, etc. Imagine being IQ tested and the results being stupendous (173). If i had known what that first test was going to cause, i wouldn’t have answered the questions honestly. Well, skip a couple of grades in school, always be the odd-ball out, move from country to country, every 3 to 5 years, blah, blah, blah. So, yeah, i’m a weirdo, too.

Nowadays, i’m a stay-at-home person who has some major medical problems, and some minor medical problems that complicate the major ones. Because i don’t sleep much, i like to play, but i’m lonely, so i like to play with others and this site seemed perfect.

i’m not some sort of musical expert. In fact, my idea of a review is:
a) excellent
b) i can stand to hear it
or c) aaaiiiiiiiiiii!!! my earballs! MY EARBALLS!!!

For myself, if it doesn’t sound beautiful, i’d rather not hear it. So a BUNCH of my remarks are going to seem pretty dumb-assed, but guess what? THIS is the other side of the coin, as it were. i’m one of the folks that looks for their music to be happy, something that makes me want to move and groove, to sing at the top of my lungs, to turn me on (yeppers, i do mean erotically!), to make everything that IS, better, and if what IS right now isn’t so great, to take me away for a little while.

i’m not concerned with who left which band to start up another band. i don’t care if bob dylan hung the freakin’ moon, he can’t carry a tune in a bucket, and neither could janis joplin. (Folks, if the lead singer can’t stay on key and in tune, they aren’t really my kind of singer.) i rarely, if ever, buy full albums, picking only my fav songs from each. Off the top of my head, the albums i own and will listen to in their entirety are: REO Speedwagon, “High Infidelity”; Tom Petty, “King’s Highway”; Aqua, “Aqua”; MSG, “MSG”; Aldo Nova, “Aldo Nova.” There are others, but i haven’t monkeyed around with my cassettes in soooooooo long...

Anyway, i came here to listen to new music and play, and i just don’t understand why anyone would actually attack anyone else over some bull**** posting on a forum.

i guess certain folks lay claim to certain threads and this thread belongs to jack. i don’t know if you know what ‘moderate’ (noun) means, but it does not mean to be the arch-adversary of anyone who dares to post a view not your own, nor is it free license to be insulting to the members. i can understand that you feel strongly, but get a grip ~ everyone knew who they were voting for MONTHS ago, debates be damned. The only thing anyone COULD do in this thread is rabble-rouse and have some fun with the candidates, so not just kick back and give it a rest? Please?


Okay, so enough about me...

This is absolutely ridiculous how much strife a fucking election can cause. Especially considering the candidates really aren't that different.

People need to stop bitching about McCain and Obama being the same and actually say how they're the same. I'm getting tired of this Nader propaganda bullshit.
