What, when I take over the world?
'cause I've been saying that for, like, ten years. So...it's not so brilliant 'cause I haven't taken over the world.
...
YET!!
Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I've noticed that during the Bush years liberals would talk about moving to Canada. During the Obama months conservatives have talked about armed rebellion.
Is this because:
a.) Liberals are pussies
b.) Conservatives are better armed
c.) All liberals secretly want to be Canadians anyhow
d.) Conservatives don't have a country to move to
e.) All of the above.

- if by "pussy" you mean people who would prefer to work things out diplomatically instead of shoot someone in the face.

You have to start small, maybe take over a small town in Wyoming, then work your way up.

I vote b, c and d.
I personally think that it would be fantastic if all the Conservatives would grab up their huntin' rifles and shotguns and, hell, let them even bring their elk-blasting fully automatic machine guns. I would love to see Rush Limbaugh and his legions versus...
...the mightiest military force in the history of the world.
It'd be a great half hour bloodfest they could show on CNN and again at Liberal Christmas.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Miracleman's description of the games that America and Europe are playing just made me spill tea all down my shirt. And it was worth it.
And honestly, that man from the video - 21 years in America and still with an Israeli accent?
My future father-in-law (currently the person I am the most nervous of in all the world): 30 years in Europe and still an Israeli accent that I have trouble following. (And they all speak Hebrew over dinner even when I'm sitting there like a lemon. I know, I should learn - but I find it impossible. They could have been polite and been a French-speaking family, surely. I can speak French.)

Accents after a zillion years in a "new" country don't bother me in the least.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
b.) Conservatives are better armed
This is a biggie.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Hmm. My officemate is a Democrat and also a hunter, and thus owns several guns. I think he's the only person I know who's ever told me that he owns a gun.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Some people's accents soften, some don't. Scince I know mine won't -- I can't pick up an accent, or imitate one- I am pretty forgiving.
I am not forgiving of speaking a language a guest doesn't speak, unless you don't know any other.
