You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Ok. I think I get that. Can you give a little more explanation just to get me over the hump?

Sure. If 30-vote voter votes against, then the best the others can do is rack up 70 votes. But then if 29-vote voter votes against, the others can come up with 71 votes. If only one of them has a veto, then 71 votes must be ok to pass this thing, but 70 votes is not. Therefore, 71 votes must be needed for a measure to pass.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Can't people just come to LA? I can't travel these days.

Humour me.

Gotcha. You're awesome. Thank you!

Strega is also awesome, but I think this is what the prof is looking for.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'd love to visit NY. Hey, I have a job with decent vacation time. Maybe I will get up to NY within the next year or so. Could be fun.

I'm wondering if Cheney's going to resign "for health reasons" soon, so Bush can stock the VP slot with a Republican presidential hopeful.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Dude. I live here and I'm just never invited to visit.

Feh.

Come on down! I'm just lame about the whole moving myself to another location thing.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Is now the time to start in with "I love LA?"
