Not something I talk about a lot, because, well... I see enough of it and other people usually word it better, anyway. Uh.
Voting results and other news pertaining to how the country's run has made me rather happy. Not so happy that we kept our governor/lieutenant governor, but pretty much everything else? Awesome. Also, Tarrant lost, which was more than enough to make my week. :)
I just really, really hope that next time, we don't see the massive hoards of negative ads that came around this year. I know this is probably stupid to hope for, but honestly I don't care what tremendous atrocities your rival has supposedly committed. Ads claiming that "BERNIE* IS EVIL. HE EATS BABIES AND LIKES RAPIST OMG" are... really stupid, especially considering most people realize you're obscuring facts to the point of near-fiction. (Also, telling us your rival is a big meanie-head really isn't going to work, not when we've been electing him forever a long time. Plus it's like something a middle schooler would do. Don't be a middle schooler.)
Really, I want to know what you are going to do if we vote for you, not what the competition has already done.
* Used Bernie because I mentioned Tarrant earlier, not because I am specifically picking on Tarrant's ads (though I may as well be, as I've certainly done it enough). You could plug almost any of the candidates in there.
Yes, I realize this is all old news and that the election was two whole days ago. Quiet.
Unrelated! Classics Wave 2 is out and we still haven't seen Wave 1 here. Hasbro.com, here I come. ...This is perhaps more annoying than it really should be. I will blame it on NaNo slowly chipping away at my mind.
