Didn't The Daily Show establish the great American food item is the Jimmy Dean sausage on a stick wrapped with a chocolate chip pancake?
It was either that or it was the food equivalent of the Bush administration.
I got stabbed, you know, right here.

I feel a little silly voting for mayor in a city I'm about to move away from, but I have a preference so I'm gonna.
I'd love to know it. I was just reading my voting "pamphlet" (a strange designation given the fact that it's 150 pages) and I'm more confused than ever. Hopefully I can figure out all these propositions before heading to the polls on my way home.

I need to vote, too, and all I know is that I want to vote for the person I actually know who's running for city council. I need to look up all the other stuff.
Sigh. I want to be a good citizen, and I know this stuff matters, but local elections are so BORING, at least around here.

What state, megan? For my job, I have to track all the ballot issues across the country (there are eight states with questions on the ballot today), so I've got them all listed on my database.

I don't think I'm voting on any of the same stuff you are, megan. It's all local and county stuff, afaict. I should check that, though.

Good lord! My sample ballot was all of one sheet and it used BIG print. Mayor, city council president, comptroller (unopposed), city council member(unopposed.) I don't have it in front of me, but I think that's it for me this year.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My doctor just asked me what I want to do about my migraines.
Uh, stop having them. Ball's in your court, MD.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I don't have anything really to vote for, so I may skip it. Crazy!

California voting information is crazily complete - candidate statements, arguments for propositions, arguments against propositions, responses to both arguments. Knowing that's getting mailed to me allows me to completely ignore all political ads and most of the news.

This sounds like a question that should be responded to with a punch to the head. The questioner's head.
