I'll chalk it up to the lateness of the hour preventing most people from having seen it yet, but it does get me down when one of my posts about dumb crap like some idiot chopping off his own unit gets far more replies than any of my political posts.

Heh, its always the way on Lj isn't it? The posts you think deserve replies almost never get them.
But if you post meaningless shit, everybody is on the act. Personally, I see politics and my brain melts.
So there's my excuse.
Ridiculous though it might be.

Well...it is often easier to say something to the silly posts. And just 'cause there isn't a response doesn't mean the post isn't being read.:) I think you're doing a lot of good with the political posts. But the silly stuff is important too. 'Cause I'm getting scared (okay, more scared) and I can't think about the election too hard right now...I already voted (absentee, so I *KNOW* it's done and I don't have to worry about anything. Yes, that insane. Besides, I can do research online and then vote right then and there, instead of making little lists. There isn't much on the ballot in Maryland this time, but it's still damn handy. Even if I did have to find my number two pencil.:) and I'm about as vocal as I can be without losing my voice completely. So I'm kind of helpless, and without the silly (not just your silly...woudln't drop that onto your shoulders), I think I'd go insane.

Love you.

I find your political posts informative - but really, what's there to comment about? All through my life it is a bunch of the same stuff with whomever I talk to, and no matter how important, it's getting tired - I just want election day to be here so I can vote.

You're either preaching to the choir, or to people who realize they aren't going to sway your views, so there is little to say other than "yeah" or "that's fucked."

a good penis chopping, well... that's a diversion from the regular everyday stuff that's bombarding us 24/7

Yay, off to play in traffic - and o' it should suck with the debate being in tempe tonight!

I agree...I know I read. There's alot of things I slice and dice in my head that I just don't say anything about.

I also agree...is voting day here yet, so we can just get this over with??

I know what you mean. Post something that you feel is important, and not a soul will reply to it. But if you put up something that is so outrageous that you can hardly believe it's true they will reply to it quickly. I ain't figured that out either. If you figure it out, will you please drop me a line at itzpeaches@yahoo.com cuz I'd like to know what the deal is.
