Must bookmark for future trolls
Evo psych bingo!
Via
And just for Bob- our current troll-in-residence
(FTR and for evo psych blowhards- I have better spacial relation skills than anyone I've ever met- male or female. Rotating 3d objects in my head is a piece of cake. Try recreating entire floorplans from a handful of real estate porn photos or packing a 3 bedroom house into a 10 foot Uhaul. Or making custom clothing patterns from scratch. I think in 3d pictures.)

More inappropriate conversations with children
I'm just waiting for the "THAT'S DISRESPECTFUL!" comments to come rolling in
Kid: Bye Mom, I'm off to the library
Me: Aren't you going to eat your sammich?
Kid. I'll eat it later.
Kid: Don't you eat my sammich.
Me: Oh I'm going to eat your whole sammich, and mine too. And when you come home from the library I am going to be covered in crumbs, rubbing my belly and complaining cause I ate too much of your sammich.
Kid: You're evil
Me: And then I'm going to tell you that I am just a momma bird. I was pre-digesting your sammich for you.
Kid: that's sick and wrong and wrong and sick and sick and wrong and wrong wrong wrong.
(FTR_ the Kid's sammich is safe and sound. But I am covered in dorito dust. If only I lived in my mom's basement (and hated women)- I'd be a real internet troll.

Why I am and always will lean Dem
Because the left leaning types don't shoot doctors.
Or blow up buildings.
Or bring guns to meetings.
That's why I wouldn't vote for McCain. That's why even though I think we have the second most useless president in history, he's still a hair's breadth better than the alternative (mind you- I think we deserve much better than either of them.)
But I am not impressed or amused by violence as a political tool. Actually- there is a word for when non-governmental agents use violence as a tool for political gain. It's called terrorism.

Communication
I keep running into this certain type of fauxgressive dude-bro- the communicator.
They are big on communicating, they just wanna talk things out, have a little chat, etc.
Except they don't really have 2-way conversations. They talk at you, over you, interrupt you, around you. They don't listen when you speak cause they are too busy planning their next barrage. Basically their m/o is to talk for so long that you are finally worn out and agree with whatever they are saying just to make them go away.
And I am over it. I no longer have any sort of strength to summon politeness when dealing with them. I hang up on them, slam doors on them. The conversation wasn't mutual anyways, they can keep babbling at a slammed door if they feel the need.

I could give you the run down
on how much we spend on health care per capita vs. every other developed country. I could give you child mortality rates and life expectancy rates. I've worked in the insurance field managing benefits packages and in medical billing, so I can give you the ins and outs and nitty gritty on the horrible ways our system works.
But I think I'd rather you had a view of a system that works really well.
They spend less per person than we do and they cover everyone. And their system has something that a free market system can never include- common decency.
