Tubularsock was sitting in his top floor corner office in his underground bunker overlooking Washington, D.C. from Oakland, CA (see: The Bunker Tour) pondering another Saturday night. The fact that they come once a week just show how often one has to think about Saturday night.
Now that old adage, “Home Alone On A Saturday Night” comes to mind. Well, why for so many is that a bad thing? But it appears to be for many and that leads them to seek out company of some type. You know ….. A DATE!
And if you can find A DATE what are your options for a “good time”?
Well for some it still is bowling …… yes, Tubularsock is repulsed by that idea too!
Dinner ………. ahh, really? Tubularsock can’t think of eating across from somebody that he doesn’t know. Tubularsock can do THAT at any diner and not have to pick up the tab!
A Movie? OH GOD NO! Not another fucking movie. Most movies are well ahhhh ….. shit! Good vs. Evil, Love Conquers All, Lost Love, Death, well you know …… shit!
Dancing ……… well with the music at 2300 decibels you don’t have to talk!
Tubularsock knows that you have done all of the above and more.
So WHY NOT get modern and be on the cutting edge for a change?
And that is where Tubularsock’s NEW TERRORIST DATING DATE comes in.
LET TUBULARSOCK KNOW HOW IT GOES.
I MEANT WHAT I SAID, OR NOT!
Oh sure, suggestions and innuendoes from an idiot are normal.
Especially when that idiot is Donald Trump. It would have been a lot more clear if Donnie had just said
“shoot the bitch” but even an idiot knows a threat against a President or a Presidential hopeful is AGAINST THE LAW.
So here we are again. Lets all talk ad nauseam about what Donnie meant and didn’t mean. Isn’t that what all diversions in politics are about. Not about issues but about innuendoes! Policies are boring but innuendoes are ripe for “reality TV”!
Now when Killary laughed saying about the assassination of Gaddafi in Libya “we came, we saw, he died” it was all good fun.
Or when “WE” Americans (YES, IN OUR NAME) blows up a wedding party in Afghanistan we call it collateral-damage. Oh well, shit happens.
But an idiot’s flamboyant speech …….. NOW THAT IS SERIOUS!
And as Ron Fournier said in his article in The Atlantic, “. . . it almost doesn’t matter what Trump meant to say, because of the truth in this maxim about leadership: What you say isn’t nearly as important as what people hear you say.”
So when Killary said in her 2008 campaign against Obummer in response to the question of why she didn’t drop out of the race because of her low odds of winning the nomination she responded with, “We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California.” (in 1968)
“Her advisers quickly explained that Clinton merely intended to note that this was not the first primary campaign to stretch into the summer, not to suggest that Obama might be assassinated.” (Anne Kornblut, Washington Post 5/24/08)
BUT …. “What you say isn’t nearly as important as what people hear you say.” Oh yes, signs of a good leader.
ALL FOR ONE!
Ok. Raise your hand if you already realize that the voting machine that can’t produce a paper trail to be checked is a voting machine that is ripe with the possibility of ILLEGAL VOTE MANIPULATION.
Ok. Are you by yourself right now? Do you feel just a little foolish with your hand up?
Don’t be concerned. BE CONCERNED if you didn’t raise your hand!
EVERYONE has heard by now, but may not have paid attention, that VOTING FRAUD is as common as sliced bread and yet nothing is ever done. At every election cycle there is a flurry of mained-stream-media reporting and an orchestrated outcry of dismay from political-types only to be forgotten until the next voting cycle. Much like election finance reform.
EVERYONE knows that it is “child’s play” to manipulate an election by just using a screwdriver! Ironic isn’t it …….. being screwed by a screwdriver. That is down right screwy!
Yet, nothing is ever done about it ……… just what’s going on?
When voting machines are brought from the warehouse where they are stored between elections and placed in the polling stations there is ample time to “adjust” them to perform anyway one would like.
Polling places are seldom set up with security to watch over the voting machines after being placed in the polling station. Or even in the warehouse where they are stored for that matter.
And a knowledgeable “hacker” can even perform their adjustment while technically in the voting booth while “voting”.
So an election can be rigged without much effort.
Yet, nothing is ever done about it ……… just what’s going on?
Now it is a known FACT that the most secure voting and counting system of all is hand-marked paper ballots, publicly counted by hand at each precinct on election night before ballots are moved anywhere. And yet this is just not done.
So if you had a problem and you had a solution to the problem but you picked THE PROBLEM as your solution ……… just what would an intelligent person conclude?
Oh, don’t bother with your answer. Tubularsock has picked it for you.
No really. You’re used to it.
