Crimm being president of the universe is an incredibly bleak, dystopian future. That may be the most upsetting thing ever posted on these forums.
It's like Jeri Ryan as Seven, minus all of the interesting things to look at.

So, I've been sick for the past week. You'd think it would mean I'd have more time to spend on the internet but I actually spent very little time using it. It seems that I missed something though as there is talk of bannings and Pokepal is obviously alluding to some thread that doesn't exist anymore with this one. What happened?

You didn't miss anything, but I have to interrupt you all with an important message from the President of the United States:
"It's classified" ;)

Speaking of Politics, is anyone else following the situation in Ukraine? I keep hearing how Russia is invading Crimea in the news and think of the country from Fire Emblem.

Since it is the fun house you should lock the thread for the opposite reasons you would in the rest of the forums. So anyone not making a 'political' comment should garner a warning and a thread-lock.

Well, section 68B of Regulation X in the Funhouse Memorandum specifically states that all discussion of poligious relitics outside of a sanctioned thread deemed for such discussion is prohibited and punishable by changes to a users title at the discretion of the forum admin/mod and unreversible for a minimum of 14 days.

Gay Marriage. Can we talk about that? I missed the thread in Talkback a few weeks ago and don't want to dig it back up.
Well I think the goal of every marriage is for it to be a happy one.
No it isn't. It's to take all you can from your partner and then kill them off to collect the life insurance money and move on to the next younger model.

Not completely political but my grandma swears we are related to John Adams somehow in our family tree, but not john Quincy Adams.
John Adams and John Quincy Adams were father and son; it doesn't seem like it would be possible to be related to one and not the other.

well on a related note we are covering the elections at work, and they gave me the day off tomorrow so I won't get to be a part of all the fun.

We need Florida in this country. There are so many things that divide us as a nation, but we can all be united in saying "At least we're not in Florida." Well, except the people who actually are in Florida, but most of them probably aren't literate enough to understand that anyway.

I live in a place that the majority voted to legalize medical marijuana (58%-42%), so naturally that means it did not pass - yet the dictator failed to get 50% (makes me jealous of runoff states) and he gets to keep his job, therefore this is the worst state.

You can thank pregnant pigs for the medical marijuana bill not passing, sadly enough. An amendment several election cycles ago regarding them is why it now takes a super-majority to pass any new amendments.

we just voted to raise the minimum wage, a first for our state and the party in power. We also voted to raise our taxes because why not wages go up taxes must too right. On the positive side, the election is all we been talking about at work so I have gotten to know where everyone stands on every major issue. In our news room most were not so happy with how things turned out overall.
