Twenty Questions: Election Edition

Hehehehehe i hope this doesn't get me in trouble here I mean NO HARM OR INSULT TO ANYONE!

Ok guys let's have some fun today. I'm down. Inspired by a bizarre comment I saw on here earlier today.

This is like 20 questions. But yes or no questions. I'm gonna put my answers next to the question but you guys just answer the questions if you want. Or not. I'm not gonna make you.

5. I like animals - Yes

6. I try to get a solid amount of sleep for me every day - Yes

7. I have people I care about in my life in some capacity - Yes

8. Usually controversial topics never come into play in my day to day real life outside the internet or television - Yes

9. I enjoy the sunshine - Yes

10. Small things make me happy like a hot chamomile bubble bath after a long day or a nice cold glass of water when im parched - Yes

17. I wish the price of goods matched the rate of inflation on most items instead of outpacing it - Yes

18. Capitalism is great and I applaud all companies and people who take full advantage of the benefits of capitalism but when you have a probably trillion dollar monopoly like Vanguard or Blackrock in the housing and rental market it causes problems and price hikes for the average joes - Yes

20. I am tired of out of touch people whatever reason they're out of touch be it age, wealth, anything having so much control over what is going on in the world. People with no perspective on reality should not be in control of world governments. - Yes

If you agreed with me congratulations you are a far right MAGA nut job. I'm not gonna vote this time because. woof. but like....I am conservative and yes I am an actual woman who voted for Trump round one hehe. So then If you disagree you are a radical leftist who needs a reality check.

See how I can do that? See how TV can just hide the fact that we are all the same.

Look into what entities and who created who funded the creation of the television and you will find yourself face to face with some familiar characters. Those responsible for many other things that have been a slow takedown on society. We are all the same. TPTB are the ones making all the noise and creating all these issues out of nothing. Nothing! And if you really said yes you want to know about Pete banging Steve, you're a pervert.

If you think its "the other side" who is bringing all these issues up and causing problems, think about where you hear all this stuff from. Do people come up to you randomly and start talking about these things like gay rights or Israel? Has any person in real life come up to you and start preaching about these issues no one cares about? Or is it really more hearing people say in real life "man groceries are so expensive now" and "geez why did my rent go up so much??" That is what real people care about. Not who anybody is boinking or whose getting the best of who in some foreign country. Nobody cares. Except about the millions and billions we are sending these foreign countries to help perpetuate their wars. We care about that because that's millions and billions that could go to helping us out here at home.

I read somewhere that the economy is what decides elections because that is what people care about. People are inherently somewhat selfish, we have to be. Its self preservation. So obviously people care about the ability to provide for themselves and their families and the quality of life they themselves have. Not all these fake issues the TV and media tell them to care about.

I agree with most of your answers except.

#8 my line of work has me dealing with cultural and political ideals on a daily basis.

#12.. I don’t wear sandals…😂✌️

a reply to: Shoshanna

I could answer yes to all of those, but I'm certain the far right nutjobs here consider me a radical leftist.

The thing is, for the most of us, we all want the same thing. We just differ on the means to get there.

a reply to: theatreboy

Can most posters honestly answer yes to all of those? I think only some can.

So what ones can you not agree with and why?

If I were to be honest, #12 creeps me out a bit...but it has to do strictly with feet, not cooling off with the water.

Yes to all. #8 is kind of a problem. I did drive to another city recently to have a part welded for my 104 year old truck. The welder began beating around the bush to see if I was conservative. I didnt let on to where I stand except that he asked some question and I replied that drag queens do not belong in our schools for story time, and that children should not be having sex changes or be coached to have them. The guy was pretty well off, educated, and an ok welder, but he was mentally abused to feel pain at the mention of conservative congress members names. I named no one, but he did, with the ugliest faces, while drooling poison. He was absolutely sick. He was tormented by what the left wing media has planted in his head.

He started talking about Trump and a couple congress women, and he was filled with a full on SATANIC hatred, as if he was demon possessed.

What got him was my reply that Trump has always been a liberal, and that I remember when both Hillary and Oprah suggested he run for President, and I thought they should shut up.

I was somewhat liberal back in the days when you could be liberal to stand against foolish wars, and there were liberals that did not support the termination of life, Americas most precious asset. Tiny Americans in the womb. I stand against anybody that supports that barbarian behavior, be they liberal or conservative.

One other thing.... He said the Ford Model T is not road worthy. Id rather drive that than his broken, abused, bent, and twisted mind.

a reply to: visitedbythem

Well, the way I read your post, it seems that Model T is junk. Bring it by to my place and drop it off. I will dispose of it properly for you.





And honestly, he and those Like him, don't drive that mind. They are just passengers.

Hehe and to make my point of brainwash I was just on a crime forum and someone made the comment all these mentally ill and pedo everywhere because Obama closed all the mental hospitals.

Which is Hilarious because growing up my pa who actually was republican and liked Reagan always said we had to move because Reagan closed all the mental hospitals and the crazies came shufflin into our neighborhood.

So just take a whack at any part of the propaganda tree. Its ripe for pickin.

a reply to: Shoshanna

I remember my dad saying the same-ish.

And I think for the most part, they were right.

We have an excess of homeless in my area. Most are addicts and alcoholics. We have our full slate of crazies, too.

Me being me, and it is weird bc I hate people and groups of people, whenever I walk past them, I say hi. And talk with them. (They are less likely to screw with me and mine.)

A lot have the same story. Life was a struggle, these substances helped them cope. Others didn't want to be on meds, thinking they are poison. Which I can get behind, somewhat.

Then there is "Doug".

I stumbled, quite literally, into Doug. When I am not working, I love being in the woods. I was walking railroad tracks one day, when I heard a train whistle. Since it can be considered trespassing to be by the tracks, I stepped into the woods and went to go up and over the little hill to not be seen.

This hill is about 10' high. Got to the top, and the other side where of the hill where I went up, had a wood overhang. Odd. I walked down 5' to a point I could get down the hill. Doug was sitting under the overhang. He silently stood up and grabbed a knife.

I held up my hands and explained that I was just getting off the tracks to not be seen by the train crew. I had seen him around. Usually 2 or 3 in the morning at a gas station buying food and water, etc. I'd say hi, but he would walk the other way.

With knife still in hand, he offered me a seat. That knife was in his hand the whole time I was there. And for about the next 6 months of me visiting every few weeks.

He is a millionaire. With credit cards that are always paid by auto pay. I found that out later. We talked until the train passed, and got up to leave. I asked if he needed anything.

He asked for Taco Bell, as he won't go into town during the day. They are closed when he feels safe to go out. I took his order, and got it for him. I dropped it off to him, and went on my way.

I didn't think of him again for a month. I was walking by Taco Bell (TB) and he came to mind. I remembered his order, and decided to pick it up and drop it off.

When I was climbing up that hill, I loudly said it was me with TB. He met me with his knife. He smiled and said thank you. He asked me to hold on. He grabbed the bag and went through the opening of the overhang into the hill. He came out a minute or two later with 20 in his hand and held it out to me. I said not to worry about it.

That did not set well with him and he yelled at me to take it. I reached out and took it. I was visibly shaking bc he startled me by yelling. And to this day, I swear that made him smile.

That was 5 years ago. I have gotten to know Doug, as much as he will let himself be known.

Doug is an electrical engineer, with a few patents under his belt...hence all his money.

He is very socially awkward, which I relate to. He was married at one point. She left him and took half his money.

When he went to work one day, he had been locked out and fired. His boss was who the ex left him for.

He packed up everything and left his state. Came to this one. As he was getting settled, he tried to get a patent on his current project. Too late, his old boss took it.

He had been living in a hotel, looking for a house. He walked down the tracks, trying to make sense of his life when he found that hill and saw a rabbit go into its hole in the hill.

And you guessed it, it gave him an idea.

He now has 3 rooms built below that hill. A bedroom, a kitchen and an office. For a bathroom, about 50' feet from his cave is another entrance. It is an outhouse, basically.

He isn't an addict or alcoholic. And while adding his hermit lifestyle, living situation, social anxiety, and his very large hatred for the tech industry up, one might say he is mentally ill, I would beg to differ.

This man's mind is definitely built different than ours, he is no more mentally ill than any average person.

If I hadn't stumbled into him that day, I too, would have considered him for the nut house.

He has helped me see that where we draw the line of sane/insane just might be wrong.

He also has explained to me that our physics is off. I still get bits of his theories when he feels like explaining. When Terrance Howard made a splash a few weeks ago, I listened to that JRE episode in utter awe...many of the things said on that show, are things that he talks about and believes.

As with most people I know in their late 60s, he is tired of the cold. He is talking about going to NC, and finding a new place to build his home.

This bums me out. I offered to drive him down, but he won't accept...he wants to walk until he finds where he feels safe.

He is obviously the guy who doesn't have anything like a cell phone, doesn't want to be tracked. I asked how we can keep in touch. He looked me in the eye and said we won't. But in the next life he believes we will be best friends.

I believe that if the nut houses were still open like they were in the 80s, that Doug would have been locked in one for life.

While I think we do need to house the criminally insane and those who are a threat to those around them, I am glad Reagan closed them.

If he hadn't, I never would have met my friend Doug.
