Yeah, I know they have to follow their script, so I just play along. And honestly, it’s not as if I’ve never made a stupid mistake before, like accidentally leaving something unplugged.

OK, who are you voting for, then?

Not to be That Guy, but it’s “pandemonium”.

My old land line was almost the same number as an entertainment venue whose number spelled TICKETS. People would sometimes dial 1 instead of 4 (corresponding to the letter I), and get me. Usually on weekend mornings, grr, but fortunately it didn’t happen too often.

“Now look what you’ve made me do!”

Exactly. I learned that it is a waste of time to try to have a discussion with this kind of person way back in the 80s. They’re willfully ignorant.

Oddly enough, I didn’t see any of the posts you’re talking about. This is the first mention of Feinstein dying that I’ve seen, so thanks for the news, I guess.

I didn’t know that Joe McCarthy originated the usage “Democrat Party”. I first noticed it in the 90s and assumed that somebody like Rush Limbaugh had come up with it.

That was the point where the Republicans ceased even pretending to be a normal political party and embraced their new identity as a fascist death cult. They don’t even have a platform. They literally stand for nothing.
