What's an Obama presidency going to be like?
November 12th 2008, 17:07 CET by Ergo

The 2008 election is over, and Barack Obama is the man. What do you see happening? He's inheriting the worst economic/political disaster in decades, so I'm curious what people think. As an Obama supporter, I hope that he'll take things in stride and try to tackle problems in an orderly fashion. But can they be fixed, outside of a global depression? Weigh in. All opinions are welcome, outside of partisan bullshit and loony conspiracy theories.

I'm not trying to change your behavior by pointing it out. I just think it's stupid that you and others do it.

Me? I didn't invite him back. Funk blames m0nty, and that's good enough for me.

Besides, Funk rarely posted anyway. Didn't he say they blocked it at his work?

Funk LEFT FOREVER?

Moat.

Funk is just silly leaving instead of plonking. Or regular ignoring.

Plonking removes the temptation to reply, though. It's like getting your stomach stapled.

Nukes require activation codes and installation and an orbital satellite or Sulaco.

Owen created the greasmonkey script, but there have been a few crappers that modified it along the way to add various features, such as the preview pane and plonking.

Hmm, I guess he's been around, I didn't notice that name until recently though.  I doubt anything I've said would shock him, I'm the black sheep of the family.  It is a little unsettling though.

I'd be a bit weirded out if someone I knew read pc without telling me. It's not as if I have a right to know about it, but it'd still be weird.

Adopts, hell, my wife and I run a service that ferries feral cats from our county down to the city to get spay and neutered now. There's no local humane society and no local vets willing to do low cost surgeries for the rural folk out here. We're booked for months; everyone out here has a barn and if you have a barn, you have feral cats. One breeding pair of cats is 80 million cats more during their lifespan if you trust the statistics.

By trapping, neutering, and returning the cats to the barns they inhabit, you create no new pockets for cats to move into (this is important, because most places just nab and euthanize feral cats which evidence suggests just makes things worse).

So, yeah, we're doing our part.

Heh...that's why I liked it.

I was kind of thinking the same thing. That's awesome. I believe we're all pretty much the misfits in our own way. It's why we all stay on PC.


As for others reading planetcrap... I tried to get my wife involved, but she doesn't know why I associate with you assholes. :p

Ho hum, I'm stuck at work today, but doing nothing. I was supposed to be here to help out with a HRIS upgrade, but things haven't gone well and I won't be able to play my role until they do. And I've already done all my regular work that doesn't require human contact.

Bored. BORED. BORED. Entertain me. Dance for me!

I accidentally doubleclicked a 150kb .exe masquerading itself as a legit (well…) episode of a show re: people gaining superpowers.

Maybe the excitement don't quite translate in text, but believe you me I burst out in sweat the second I realized my error. This totally ruins my nerd credibility.
