I’m excited for this next election. Definitely more than last time where I said ‘voting sucks‘.
But, I still want to throw out a few quotes:
“Teens are extremely socially aware, but favour participation through their consumption choices, because they believe corporations are more effective agents of change than governments.” Source

For a country that really hated monarchies we sure seem to be hypocrites. Really, guys? Clinton again? She’s going to press the same “universal” health care (HillaryCare) issue she toyed with over 14 years ago!
Can you believe we have 10 more months of this? And with the way these delegates are so closely shaping up, [...]
Is it just me or do you start having relationships with drivers on the road with you? I start calling them by their make, model, and/or color. “Come on in Green Toyota, you let me merge back there a bit ago.” Is that silly? Is that just me? Oh, and thanks for cutting me off, [...]
I have a huge issue with how tickets were sold here on Monday/Tuesday to the World Series games in Denver. My biggest issue is with the lying, unfair company behind the online ticket sales, Paciolan Inc.
Here’s a run-down of all the issues and what I suspect really happened:
No tickets were sold in-person: They said putting [...]
Everything is relative. I’ve been conducting an informal survey for a little while now: when I ask for ‘lots and lots of ketchup’ at the Chik-Fil-A drive-through I will receive either a) lots and lots of ketchup or b) three or four packets. The determining factor: how busy the Chik-Fil-A is. Something tells me if [...]
Are we far too male centric? Recently I’ve noticed how much wives put up with. From Eugene O’Kelly to Evan Almighty. And that’s just yesterday. It may sound naive but why are we still so very male-centric? Discussion at 9rules.
Dear Google,
What have you done lately to “organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful?” Seriously, all I hear about lately is how you’re spending and making lots of money. Where does the information fit in?
I think my ‘captcha’ batting average is 300 right now. Captchas are what we call those annoying boxes at the end of a form, or before you download a file. They show you a jumble of letters and numbers and you have to enter what it is. Apparently this is to circumvent non-human interaction with [...]
I want to talk about marketing production quality and how Miss Dewey lacks it. If you haven’t seen this site yet, it’s basically a search engine with a saucy librarian standing there being snarky and clever on occasion. If you don’t get around to typing in a search she’ll try to get your attention.
Quite annoying, [...]
How many weeks of this will there be? And that’s just the last three days.
I assure you not everything I publish is a rant. I’m just feeling feisty lately… my latest target is television. A few people have described their experience with a month without TV and I’m following suit. My roommate and I had talked about dropping Comcast for months now because, frankly, that’s too much money to [...]
