Well, Burrell, I kind of expected this one to be a shoe-in. I'm not sure something that everyone hates would have a chance to make it all the way to a vote. I mean, this actually derailed at least 1 or 2 things that were in the queue ahead of it (I'm assuming because everyone wanted it done now and/or were swept away by the glory that is msbelle).
Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

Which speaks well to the process of crafting a proposal, or maybe we aren't as many different types of wrong-headed crackpots as we'd thought.
This is what I think. See, the voting winds up being a kind of extension of what was the consensus process. It ratifies it and focuses it.

I'm number 10. That's not as bad as in bitches.
That doesn't exonerate you, though, Gus. You're an evil creature and should be punished.

Hec, you know, you can be punished too. In fact, I'm putting you on my list. So there.

Pfft. You've got three kids. By the time you remember to put my name on the list you'll have forgotten why. I'll probably go on the "Send Cookies" list.

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

Heh. I've dropped out completely. Not a single post in Bureaucracy 2.
...Ah. Bugger.

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

Well, it's also a matter of no alternative. We need a fix and put out a vote on "A" as the proposed fix.
Additionally, a lot of people who are ok with the way things are just don't participate in the votes.

Crap. Hec has me figured out. I'm ALWAYS confusing my "punish" list with my "send cookies" list!
