billcoe Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 You may certainly hold opinions that differ from mine, but when one says that another's opinion is wrong, then there can be no further meaningful discussion. The death knell of spray has thusly just rung.... Quote

ivan Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 The entire neighborhood is still not on speaking terms with me! that probably had more to do w/ me pissing in the flower-boxes 'fore i made an ill-advised dash for the border Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted December 2, 2011 Author Posted December 2, 2011 The Russian's friend, a woman, told me recently that all my art pieces look like penises. Patricium, not the russian one, that was the italian american and besides you guys started it that night And it got loud apparently! The entire neighborhood is still not on speaking terms with me! The Russian's FRIEND, Russian. What am I, a translator? BTW, send me her email so I can see if she still wants that thing we talked about one time. Quote
rob Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 You may certainly hold opinions that differ from mine, but when one says that another's opinion is wrong, then there can be no further meaningful discussion. But sometimes another's opinion IS wrong. I mean, take Bill, for example. Quote

tvashtarkatena Posted December 2, 2011 Author Posted December 2, 2011 Hey now. Just joking. Jeez. Did you know my x? I don't think so. Quote
rob Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 Nobody really knew their ex -- or else they wouldn't have gotten with them in the first place. That's why I dislike everybody right from the beginning. It always ends up that way in the end, so you might save a lot of time. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted December 2, 2011 Author Posted December 2, 2011 Neh, but I knew mine pretty well. Oh, right. That makes more sense. Well, I guess it's no more Russian jokes, then. Quote

That's why I dislike everybody right from the beginning. It always ends up that way in the end, so you might save a lot of time. Finally ending up in a good place makes all the previous shit you had to go through to get there seem like it was worth it. Such a mechanism makes humans dumber but happier. Quote
ivan Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 any port in a storm? especially when the port is well-stocked w/ buxom women and heady brews? Quote

tvashtarkatena Posted December 2, 2011 Author Posted December 2, 2011 Best to be your highly flawed self from day one and let the chips fall where they may. Quote
sobo Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 I've never pretended to be anything that I am not. I are just a lowly en-ga-neer that, as a kid, spent way too much time alone with a Monty Python record... Quote

tvashtarkatena Posted December 13, 2011 Author Posted December 13, 2011 As of Saturday, I502 had 286,000 signatures. 241,000 valid signatures are required. The project will continue to gather 22,000 signatures per week until the deadline of Dec 30, to account for any margin of error. In other words, this is now real. If the legislature doesn't pass I502 as is first, it will appear on the 2012 November ballot. I've been gathering endorsements from Country Chapter Democrats. It usually takes a couple of months of introducing and discussing the issue before a vote on endorsement is taken. We've had prohibition for so long, now, that legalization, even though there aren't really any cogent arguments against it, seems like an alien concept for a lot of people. "Can we actually do that?" "Yup." Quote
rob Posted December 13, 2011 Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) $5 says the WA voters won't go for it, they're all way too fucking retarded. The opposition is gonna play all sorts of ads about legalizing drug use by kids and shit and everyone is gonna start screaming, "won't somebody think of the children???" I mean look how freaked out people got over something as simple as a rational liquor policy in WA state. OMG OMG OMG COSTCO WILL BE SELLING BOOZE TO MY 3-YEAR OLD NEPHEW!!!! It's a good start, though. Edited December 13, 2011 by rob Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted December 13, 2011 Author Posted December 13, 2011 My discussions with some of the most conservative folks around this state...in Pacific, Okanogan, Lewis, and other counties - people who I've personally seen go from "WTF?" to "Let's Endorse This" leads me to believe that it's not only possible, but likely that voters will go for it. That rational liquor policy passed by a wide margin, as I recall. Quote
rob Posted December 13, 2011 Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) you mean passed FINALLY. So are we on? $5. I'd like to see it pass as much as the next guy, but I'm just being realistic. I'm really glad you guys got it on the ballot, though (theoretically) -- things like this usually need to be on the ballot several times before passing, it seems. (I signed, btw) Edited December 13, 2011 by rob Quote
KaskadskyjKozak Posted December 13, 2011 Posted December 13, 2011 you mean passed FINALLY. ... and now being challenged in court... Quote
