I pit the people of the United States of America.

thank god you started this thread, because everyone in the United States of America just changed their minds.

Not.

@septimus

The ‘American Dream’ was to have a life better than one’s parents had. I thought it was widely agreed that this Dream was believed throughout the 20th century and largely came true. It is only recently that this Dream has turned to Despair; and in fact young Americans generally face a life more difficult than their parents’.

and their parents are blaming their kids for not doing as well as they did.

I cannot wait until the Boomers are gone.

I have to step in here— doorhinge has so much more to offer than stupid questions. He also makes stupid assertions, draws stupid analogies, makes stupid predictions and voices stupid opinions. His profoundly stupid catchphrase, a braying jackass “laugh,” is stupidity in its purest form. He stupidly believes that partial quotes need to be tagged with “(post shortened),” being too stupid to notice, after more than five years, that he’s the only one who does it, or perhaps thinking that we’re too stupid to notice when a quote is truncated, which would make the rest of us stupider than he, which is just plain stupid.

Not mention his stupid references to his screen name as a “nom de plume”, as if he was an 18th century French novelist.

@doorhinge

I’m just following the rules. You seem to be too stupid to understand that. Keep up the good work.

Which rule is it that requires that you behave like a braying jackass? I forget.

I looked at the picture and it looks to me like he’s the Zorro of jackasses.

To add to the pitting, don’t you hate it how all Americans, without exception, make a weird grunting/whining noise when they eat molluscs?

I’m pretty sure they can’t hear it themselves but it really bugs me.

Some people might not have been aware that other democracies ALSO do not elect their leader by popular vote.

So?

If the ECs in these other democracies happen to be as fucking useless as they are in the US, then there’s still obviously no point in having one.

Then you should have no problem changing the status quo. Let me know how that works out for you.

Yeah kinda rough I can’t somehow singlehandedly re-align electoral policy. Do you see any point in having an EC?

Yeah I hear ya - especially when they’re talking away, and there’s, like, bits of shrimp* shell stuck in their teeth, and you wanna say something, but instead you slow burn, unable to concentrate on what they’re saying because of that fucking piece of shrimp shell.

With me it’s the way Americans always forget to slide over the green “occupied” lever when using an outhouse. The French and the Swedes are always complaining about this.

*ok, not a mollusc, sue me.
