I went to go vote yesterday. I had been putting it off. It's hard to make time with two jobs and my mom always needing to use my car. So since I didn't have anything planned I went straight after work. I got there around 4:30pm and was dismayed to see a long line. I shouldn't have been surprised because it was in the news that early voter turn out was high. I almost always vote early and usually I am in and out in less than 10 mins if even that long.
I had the misfortune of having a family behind me in line. WTF?!? Why did these fools bring their kids?! The family talked and talked. Then the boy stumbled out of line and brushed up against my ass! O_o! I was going to say something but he quickly said he was sorry. I ignored him. Later the little shit does it again so I turn and give the family a dirty look. The little girl who is spinning around like a damn freak bumps into me. He dad quickly pulls her away. Then the boy bumps into me again and I tell him to watch it. Then the parents get after the boy. The parents and the boy proceed to argue for the whole time I was in line.
It made for a most unpleasant voting experience. Shit! Control your fucking kids! If I had not been so close to the front I would have walked away. It’s shit like this that makes me want to tie, slash, and burn other peoples tubes as well as my own.

You got an APOLOGY??? And the kid actually GOT IN TROUBLE for acting up???!!! :blink:
Whare are the smelling salts? I feel faint....

There were free range children when I went. Just thrown out to be wild and free in the grass and occassionally wander dangerously close to trafffic. Of course, most of the older kids were still in school and these little ones were being pretty much tolerable.

I don't see what the problem is when someone much smaller than you bumps into you and it doesn't affect you greatly. :huh: You just be impressed and proud of yourself that yo are clearly stronger and thus better than this other person.
Oh wait, that's right. You're women, and thus what you seek out of life is based more on yourself than others.

You must understand that it could be bothersome if continuous.

And certainly that doesn't apply to men. Yeah, right. Shut the fuck up. That applies to everyone. Don't even start bringing Rolf up in here....

:blink:
Hence the apparent sarcasm! :angry:

I like kids. There isn't a kid born that I can't turn against its parents within 5 mins.

HA! Me and Kary stood inline for 2 1/2 hours so she could vote, and this lady brought four kids! They were pissing people off, but they are kids, what else can they do? I woulda hated standing there for that long.

If you have 204 kids that you have to take to the voting place with you, find somebody else to watch them or mail in an absentee ballot for God's sake.
Little kids in lines is never a good thing.

Much smaller than me eh?! Well I guess that is my fault for forgetting to mention that this boy was a foot taller and twice my size. He appeared to be 12 or 13. Old enough to know better. The girl was like around 8.
What is with your misogynist attitude? Or am I grossly misunderstanding you. I unlike yourself do not like having someone bumping into me again and again. Once I can understand but three times. If this boy was a toddler I wouldn't have been so upset. Also his fucking hand had no business on my ass! Three times!! I honestly think the perv was trying to cop a feel. I wanted to scream but was too shock and in disbelief to say anything about it.
-
He bumped into you three times?
Are you hot?
:D
-
<--voted via absentee ballot. In and out in under 5 minutes.
Go me.
-
The kid was just trying to touch your ass. I'm proud of him.
-

Go me.
Same here. I just hope it's not shredded at the bottom of a trashcan because I voted against Bush and Mel Martinez.

Yeah, because we all know voter fraud is a purely republican phenomena. Like the 5,600 Democrat voters here in SE WIsconsin found to have addresses that didn't exist. Or the 2000 election when Gore supporters were bussing in people from Chicago to vote here.
-
I honestly have no freaking idea how to vote via absentee ballot. The library where I voted is walking distance, but still...
-
Sam, I think he was specifically referring to the 58,000 missing Florida absentee ballots. Tom has the scary task of voting in Florida. :(

What about the 'lost' and 'destroyed' ballots all over florida :P I think we should just level the midwest, and turn it into grain fields.
Oh, not to mention the mostly dems in florida who didnt get absentee ballots, and the destroyed ballots in arizona!?
And WHO THE FUCK SAYS I AM A DEMOCRAT!?
Bush ain't a Republican, he's a fundamentalist globalist. Get your facts straight. Bush only wants to conserve his and his friends interests, ya cheese eatin' cue ball.

Hey!! I resent having my homeland being destroyed because you're a cockslap who has to live in Florida with teh old people and Jeb Bush.
I could probably walk to my voting precinct place too, Nuri. But.. ya know... I have my own car anyway.

Oh I know what he's referring to. But voter fraud really isn't confined to one side of the political spectrum, nor to one area of the country.

Florida also deserves to be nuked. >.< I hate this fucking state. Come move to Massachusetts!
-
Masschusett's gay... and I don't want to live in a state who's name I can't even spell.
Yes, I realize the irony of call Mass. gay... hahaha, gay marriage! Durrr hur hur.

You've never had fresh apple cider while looking at the pretty leaves then. Move to Rhode Island, and get some of the greatest food on Earth!
-
Rhode Island's too small.

o.o
No, Nebraska is wayyyyy to big.

How did Nebraska get involved here?
