Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Alright people, listen up:
Unhappiness abounds. In our careers, on the board, with the gubbermint, with the freakin WEATHER. We need a break.
Therefore, April 1st, in addition to it's current designation, is now
HAPPY BUFFISTA DAY
For the next twenty four hours (it's like a Jewish holiday, it starts at night) we're going to hug and kiss and fling glitter and tell jokes and lavish compliments until EVERY DAMN ONE OF US feels at least a little better.
C'mon now, sing the little song:
Happy Buffista Day to you
Happy Buffista Day to you
Happy Buffista Day dear __________!!!!
Happy Buffista Day to youuuuu

Voting is now open for the following proposal:
Proposal: This vote is to open a Politics Thread. This thread would be for any discussion regarding politics, ways to become involved in politics and other subjects having anything to do with and/or pertaining to politics. Domestic or foreign. Primarily focusing on the upcoming presidential election, but could also include local elections.
This thread will have a trial run of 3 months. At the end of that trial run, there will be another vote to decide if the thread should remain open. The outcome of that second vote will be subject to the usual 6 month moratorium.
Discussion for this proposal starts here. Please look through it if you haven't already. It's less than 300 posts, and makes a good read.
Voting closes Thursday, April 8, at 6 PM (PST).
(questions should be posted in Bureaucracy)
