this word, undecided, is now synonymous with stupid, for me. even the idea of not being able to decide something, even momentarily, has now taken on an inherent connotation of stupidity. from now on, if you can’t make a decision on anything, I will consider you an idiot.
“Hey, do you want to go get pizza?”
“Oh, I don’t know. I’m stupid. I kinda want sushi…”
“I could go for sushi. You want to go to Musashi’s or Hiroshi’s?”
“Meh, I’m stupid. You decide.”
they need to stop interviewing these pathetic brain donors on national television who, 19 days from a gigantic election, still can’t seem to find a SINGLE REASON to choose one candidate over another. they are either too stupid to be allowed to vote, or too hungry for attention to be allowed to have their vote count.
you can’t drive til you’re 16. you shouldn’t be able to vote until you have at least a semblance of a grasp of what is going on in the country and how you feel about it. bottom line: if you have no opinion, then why should you be able to vote? if it’s just a coin flip in your addled mind, then why should your vote count?
sure, there must be some people out there who have some odd confluence of positions on issues that actually split them between Obama and McCain. I’m sure there are some pro-lifers that support universal health care, while wanting to lower middle class taxes and deregulate the banking industry, but they have to be few and far between. mostly, you hear these “undecided” voters say things like, “Well I like Obama’s big words, but sometimes I worry about him spending a lot of our money. And I like that McCain was a POW, but sometimes he looks angry.”
are you frickin’ KIDDING ME? how about the ISSUES?!?!
at least my guy is gonna win, so my anger is tempered a little bit. now that Obama is probably gonna get Virginia, it’s pretty much done. McCain can get Ohio AND Florida, and he will still lose. you only need 270 electoral votes, kids. and Obama is already projected to get more than that. unless there is a HUGE game-changing event for McCain (and this debate was NOT it) it’s pretty much done.
sorry undecideds. your stupidity is not going to change this thing.
so here are all of my favorite cat haikus that I’ve written, all on one post. so convenient! I’ve deleted all the dozen or so older posts, I’m trying to clean up the blog a little bit. and I have a new website on the way that I will let you know about.
