Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm not pooh-poohing this, but that happened when Obama won, too. (Which, like you mentioned, was helped along by Trump.) People will be pissed, but I don't think there will be a revolution.
I don't think we'll see a revolution either, but it's gonna be worse than '12. More people are now convinced Hilary and the Democrats are going to steal the election and destroy America if they get the chance.
Maybe we'll see large protests with guns.
Open carry laws are a lot worse in some states. Like mine, ha ha.
I imagine there will be small points of intense unpleasantness, with people screaming and waving guns, but nothing widespread. I was expecting actual attempts on Obama's life, and I don't know if they didn't materialize or if the Secret Service is kicking back in their breakrooms smirking about the assholes they grabbed before they got too far.
It's easy to scream when there's a camera, there are fewer who are willing to grab their guns and explosives and hop in their truck to go commit mayhem (though many of them live in my time zone).
It feels very tinderboxy out there.
I have a very uncomplicated set of hairs on my head and have been going to a nearby Hair Cuttery for several years. Never ended up at the only man's station there until this last time. He always seemed deeply unhappy to be there, which made me a little hesitant, what with the scissors and all, but he was up in the rotation. Still seemed grumpy, but it was a great cut that has grown out really well - three months! Guess I'm going back to him soon.
"I gotta get home and practice tonight, I've got the cornhole tournament this weekend. When I was playing I would get at least three in so I gotta practice and make sure I'm ready." LIKE THERE IS SOME COMPETITIVE CORNHOLE LEAGUE AROUND HERE! OMG WHAT IS THIS WORLD! Y'all I gotta get out.
Anytime someone says "cornhole" to me (and they say it a surprising non-zero amount?) I say, "DO YOU MEAN BEANBAG TOSS?? I thought so." And then I maybe go on a rant about La Croix water. Because we have our own regional stuff here!

What's funny is that when I grew up in MO, it was always beanbag toss. But, when I moved back to the same area after a nearly two-decade absence, it was cornhole. Another big thing around here is washers (similar to horseshoes, but with, well, washers).
Ohio is cornhole central, and every time someone says it I think of Beavis and Butthead. #ninetiesproblems
I never heard it called cornhole down here until a few years ago, but that sounds all country and real amurica so of course everyone who called it beanbag toss their whole lives in tx now calls it that. And this guy is country country also fake fake.
Last day in my current office tomorrow. And current officemate isn't gonna be in. I'm gonna miss him & the sysadmin stuff I've learned. I think I'll go out tomorrow and buy him a bottle of booze and an Orioles shot glass and leave it in his desk. And maybe a RoFo gift card, cause I know he stops there for coffee in the mornings. We've been good officemates for 9 years!
