Do you ever have anything positive to contribute?

Removing yourself from the gene pool would be incredibly positive for the planet.


Stef...aka ...piece of shit. Fuck yourself because it's quite obvious by your attitude nobody else wants to.

Now now tamaka, that's no way to talk to one of our happy trans brethren. By definition they are all sweetness and light and never express cis-hatred at every opportunity.

First...it is illegal to photograph the ballot in NY (but...thinking law will no longer be much of a hard and fast thing here anymore )

THe ballot is in 3 languages. If you look at the top of the pic you will see "Neuva York" and "del 2016". The two largest languages spoken in NYC other than English are Spanish and Chinese

Oh I didn't know NYC had such a huge Chinese population. Interesting!

Dirk or Giovanni could have gotten all stressed out at you and insisted on "Dirk" or "Giovanni", but they'd rather make it easier for you. They're nice guys, is all.

No they wouldn't.

I am chinese, they won't expect me to be able to speak their language. I have never met someone who's of a different first language from me, that expects me to call him or her in their mother tongue name. Can you imagine Indian names? Like Balabaleskrisnan or something? And gosh, in India history lesson, I couldn't spell any of their historical figure names, it was so hard!

Even chinese people. I tell China people I have problems with remembering their chinese names all the time and it's no big deal. They give me their English names. Or I will call them by their initials. Like if it's Lee Xin Hui, I will call her LXH. And many Indian friends also are cool with initials being used to address them, as their names are so long and hard to pronounce.

And it's super cool around here. China people kinda see Singaporean Chinese as terrible with our Mandarin anyway. They feel we pronounce everything wrong and phrase everything weird. And they consider us English speakers.

Well, quite: any system that allows a failed businessman with a lengthy history of bankruptcy and nuisance legal actions to stand for the Presidency needs tightening up some.
(You haven't thought this one through, have you?)


Well, not quite: any system that allows a calculating pant suit void of any substance whose greatest accomplishment is enriching herself through her own charity, a woman, who, had she not hitched her wagon to Bill couldn't have been elected dog catcher in her home state let alone carpet bag her way to a Senate seat in New York stand for the Presidency is definitely a system that needs some serious tightening up.

Greta (hug) I'm agreeing with you, dear. I'm saying they could have been dicks to you about it but they weren't because they're nice. Some of these people don't seem to want to be nice to you, but I do, ok?

I just notice Hillary has overtaken Trump in popular vote. Although the margins are very close.
And yet he far exceeded her in electoral votes.

Interesting.
