i didn't even bother to check the results until today. there's always last minute sputtering back and forth, perhaps a dimpled chad... so, alright, fine, i figure we should have a winner now that CNN's milked all it can out of a tense moment. trump win. oh. shit. i got that sinking feeling in my stomach. i catalog these sort of feelings, and this was the same feeling i got, when, well.... at eight years old, i was off on some family thing involving a rented houseboat. i was up in the cool bedroom you had to climb a ladder for and overheard: oh, yes, epicmegatrax filled his water bottle up with lake water because no one told him that the faucet goes to the lake. will he be ok? and some guy working for the docs is all: oh, yeah, probably, something something if he starts vomiting but otherwise... i also got this feeling a week ago when i realized i'd botched the driving route and now my whole schedule had gone to... oh. shit. it is distinctly different from a vasovagueweirdal response: the neighbor's bluntly discussing the missing chunk from his arm. i feel myself begin to pass out. fight it. losing. stumble across the lawn like an irish drunk. desperate to make it to my bed before i pass out. thinking: this is so fucking stupid. i'm not scared. i'm not grossed out... but, no, this is happening. you bastard. stop it when you can no longer hear anything but deafining tinnitus, you have about ten seconds of consciousness left. i made it to my bed by about ten seconds. let it settle. began to think about how to explain this to the neighbor... a guy i know was talking about being choked out. i took over his story and mined for data: did your ears ring? did you feel cold, or...? so, yes, when i say i got this feeling, i mean it specifically. QED: i don't feel the life draining out of me. i didn't vomit up any lakewater. clearly, this is not a good thing, but let's not panic. unless i start to vomit |

i waited to check because i've been on the presedential election carousel many times before... and, yes, fuck that, let's wait. when i did find out, i had no idea. i hadn't been with it for three days, waffling on it, taking both as a serious winner for a moment. this gave me a fairly pure, raw, reaction... and, i've trained myself to catch these things, and i recognize it. now let's pull up the mental database and rationalize it: don't panic. but keep an eye on it then the consolation prizes file up: i dislike political correctness intensely. with a word like nigger i am weighing the cost of offending a large segment of the population vs. the intense amount of fuck-you being told i cannot use a particular word generates. fuck. nigger! the picked presedent is a rorschach. america's psyche waveform collapses to a point and reveals itself. hillary clinton is a fucking machine of polished, calculated statements. while i would prefer that over trump's volatility, a part of me is delighted to realize i have ever so slightly been given the nod: this means i can speak my mind a little more. next time some hair lady gives me shit for being weird, i can say: fuck you, lady, this is america. i have rights. president trump wouldn't take your shit; neither should i. you're a woman, and i'm a white adult male. shit, wait a minute... are you part mexican? mexicans, women, people offended by the word nigger -- sorry, guys. you had yout time over the last eight years. after eight years of trump, though, and everyone's been allowed to be free and ugly, it'll echo around. perhaps trigger introspection. hey, man, that's ugly. that hurts. hillary rodhat clintop for 2024 |

"Hey! Who grabbed your pussy?" I've got this red cap that I sometimes like to wear but I can't now because I think I'd be assaulted by a liberal, even though I'm in the UK and even though the cap says "Mexico" on it (and no, not as part of the phrase "Go back to Mexico"). |

I do kind of want one too... I'm sorry if that upsets anyone. As a kind of cultural symbol of the times (grave times, in some's opinion) That was the thing with the "Donald Trump Signature Brand" apparel though; all made in China. |

shows how alot of people misjudged the national mood, there are different facets of america that very rarely intersect, |

perhaps epics can tell me if thats so as he is american |

|

so you make a generalization about all americans (which involves all americans making a generalization about all americans) and then apply it to me, since i'm an american, and i made a generalization, and it was wrong... so, no, it is not so. i'm afraid you're wrong. have a nice day. |

the generalization selection season is misunderorienting to manny, who is mexican, im not certeanly but sure your wrong is my right |

i thought i was being a bit vague if anything, thats why i asked for you input cos you live there |

i suppose what i mean is florida is like the size of England, and you get loads of geographically isolated placers so its hard to gauge what the overall mood is, or perhaps its not and the pollsters had their fingers in their ears |

me, personally: i knew it was going to be close. nobody particularly likes clinton; many hate her. a few people really, really like trump, and everyone else hates him. all clinton has to do is not be too odious and she's got it, i figure. unless there are more trump fans than i guessed... or the russians hack the election... or trump cheats, fradulates, nudgles a dimpled chad into a nod..... am i surprised trump won? a bit. it's like when the forecast says "cloudy" and you get "light rain" instead. you've gotten confused in thinking that gauging the weather is a right-or-wrong sort of thing. it's a gradient going from trump landslide to clinton landslide. i put my chip down on clinton's side, slightly, and i was a bit wrong, but i don't feel like i'm in a parallel universe or anything twilight zone line that |

there's me covered. as for the rest of america, you'll have to ask them. i can only gauge their level of gauging, and, from that distance, all i'll generate is vague. goulash. peter molyneux. u noe? |

oh yeah peter molyneux i know exactly what you mean, champion bullshiter bullfrog games are so good though |

I was very 50/50 about who would win, but i was surprise how little chance the press gave trump, seemed like a snowballs chance in hell, |

the beautiful thing about systemically attacking my excess of mouth is that the strategies generalize into these moments in which i elect not to answer. start typing a reply, and realize... no... there are technical reasons i will never answer this post as it is. i have to plug his words back into himself so he experiences the mental explosion i've just spotted and avoid. then he'll apologize for being vague and at that point i'll have thought up an answer to the question he was trying to ask the first time |

peter molynex alert -> you've been going in circles for a while goulash alert -> you're about to go peter molyneux sarah palin alert -> this is starting to seem goulash-y george w. bush alert -> i am ungoulashable i have trained my friends to yell out "molyneux!" when i'm beginning to ramble too much. the goulash one hasn't quite caught on, yet, but "molyneux!" has been yelled at people other than me quite a few times now |

I must say its weird how your getting all these marches around the world about womens rights, why arent they up in arms about Saudi Arabia or worse places, i mean i must admit getting riled up with faux indignity, but when i think about it for half a second its all seems to lack some perspective or introspection doesnt it. I mean Saudi Arabia and china have been doing 1984 for fucking years |
||||||||

then again i suppose i lack a certain perspective even posting that message on here |
||||||||

|

yeah u were supposed to ponder this one out years ago. you all were. btw saudi arabia is on every basic bitch list of bad countries. you have no idea how deep the hole goes if u think talking about saudi arabia puts things into perspective. hell. you spent everyday of a first world life being perfectly ignorant about actual hell. |

when trump first began making noises about running, i didn't think he was serious. i thought: "leave his plush tower full of gold toilets and abused women? naw." being the president is a terrible job. you have to be a bit crazy to ask for it, as the saying goes. i figured trump knew this and was just milking it for attention. i managed to hang on to that belief until april or may, at which point only trump and clinton were left. then i thought: "i guess he really does want the job. huh." his no-mexicans, no-arabs executive order has absolutely consumed the news cycle. however, there are plenty of lesser-known executive orders, and one of his goes like this: "for every regulation a federal agency makes, it has to eliminate two regulations." this is something that is a solid idea if you view it from a surface level -- it's almost clever. a little feedback loop that uses the need for new regulations to garbage-collect the old ones at a solid clip... but, i suspect, this will be great for some government organizations (IRS perhaps) and terrible for others: some have lots of crap rules that are easy to spot and bin. others are already pretty lean and will wind up doing crazy shit like making fake regulations (to be binned later as per the rule) to buy themselves a few tokens down the road. obviously, it's a good way to delete "regulations" on wall street as well, but we'll stow that cynicism for the moment. depending on the venue, this new policy can go either way. it needs granularity. instead, it's been spraypainted across everything. trump needs to develop this level of subtlety in his paintbrush, or he won't get anything done in office. if he can't get anything done in office, he may start to cheat. if he cheats, things will go thermoschnozzliar nixon -- trials, impeachment. alternatively, he may "shock" the country and just say "i'm fired." quit. at the moment i give it 50/50 he'll make it through the whole four years. i ballpark it at 3 |

epics - ¨his no-mexicans, no-arabs executive order has absolutely consumed the news cycle¨ from what i can gather, he never said that. he said no ´illegals´ and no one from the 7? war torn countries. torn due to the previous US administration who dropped 100,000+ bombs in the last 8 years. destabilising the many regions. but there were no MSM protest coverage of that. all countries should be sending supply’s to all those in need. its disgusting to bomb and leave people stranded. the EU the US, everyone should be going in with supplies hardcore. find the children in need who lost parents for a start. |
