I have voted third-party before. Not that it did any good, but I knew that going in. And once again it wasn't for someone I actually believed in, but for the least offensive clown in that particular circus.That's what you end up with in a two-party system. Sure, you'll see third-party candidates on the ballot, and one of them might appeal to you, but deep in the back of your head you hear that little voice saying "he's just a spoiiiiiiiiiiiiiiler. Don't throw your vote awayyyyyyyyyyyy!"
That has been the result in my opinion--the same manure in a different bag. And seeing as the Electoral College can negate my vote anyway, I'm giving serious consideration to not even bothering with future elections. I've never really believed a single vote (i.e., my vote) makes a difference anyway, so why waste my time, especially when these elitist fat-cat politicians couldn't care less about what my interests are?So you choose between Comic Sans Bold or Comic Sans Light, and walk away from the polls muttering "yahhh, they're all the same anyway."
In this part of California where "walking" for most people is defined as taking the least amount of steps possible between their car and whichever facility happens to be their destination, the trend among these slobs is to honk their car horn as they drive past and maybe follow that up with a whistle or some form of shouted idiotic comment, and I've never understood that mentality. What, do they think these women are going to break into a sprint and try to catch up to them because they (the guys) were so suave and smooth??? :twitch::der:...Perhaps this is a lesson that some men need to be taught: if you like a woman and want to strike up a friendship, start having sex with her, date her, etc. the way to start that relationship is NOT TO scream "smile baby!," "work it baby!," or "you're pretty baby!" from across the street. Cross the street, introduce yourself, etc. Don't yell "compliments" about her body (even her pretty face) in an attempt to make her blush just to look like you own the street in front of your friends.
I can tell you, no woman in her right mind is going to go home with a man who yells at her out on the street...
