If you ask a stupid question
don’t be surprised to get a stupid answer.
“How much does this machine weigh?”
“Absolutely no idea whatsoever”
“Ballpark”
“Franks”
“What?”
“I thought we were doing word association. Really, I have no idea what the machine weighs”
“Take a guess”
“I really don’t know. If i guessed it would not even be remotely accurate”
“Well you have to have some idea”
“yes, my idea is it’s heavy and I don’t know how heavy”
” Just tell me what you think”
“I really don’t think at all”
“So give me your wildest guess”
“OK, here’s my wildest guess. 32,000 lbs”
“THat’s NUTS! No WAY that machine weighs that much.”
“You’re right. I shouldn’t have guessed”
Later, it turns out that the machine is in fact, 32,170 lbs give or take some packing material. I hate that. I hate just fucking guessing and being right.
Because my guess is that Wingnuthead is going to win a second term.

Man. I hope you are wrong on that one.
My thought is 32,170 will be all the votes he gets.
One of his shills was roaming the hood this afternoon. I told her which houses had no one home and she asked me if I would vote for OBama. I said not likely.
She was black and she did not call me racist. She did smile at me kind of like looking at a poor old fool
Last year it was white people trying to get out the vote for the O.
I was guessing McRomney would win. Polling favors Obama right now, but we haven’t had any debates yet.
Obama has a lot of off teleprompter time coming up.
that’s heavy man…
As to the second I hope you’re wrong also. And I wouldn’t worry about the polls. If anyone every asked I say Obama just to skew their results.

You guessed 16 tons and what do you get?
“How much will it cost to fix this car?”
“Six thousand, seven hundred, and fifty seven dollars”.
“Ha wha wha wha…….
“Of course, it might turn out to be cheaper if you let us figure whats wrong with it first”.
My guess is the same, except that I don’t really think all the votes in favor of him are going to come from actual voters. There’ll be the usual dead folks and the usual ineligible votes, and the people who “vote early, vote often”, and all the Democrat machine cities will wind up into high gear to re-elect their guy.
But I think there’ll be more vote fraud than that, even. “Stuffing the ballot boxes” is the phrase that comes to mind. This President has shown absolutely no qualms whatsoever about violating the Constitution when it suits him; what’s the law next to that?
Hope you’re wrong, but as dirty as this already is I think it’s going to turn ALL the good people off!
Regarding the upcoming election…
If it’s an honest election, I suspect it will indeed be a minor landslide (5%).
I have noticing a deepening swell of… determination…. amongst people who are paying attention, coupled with a noticeable lack of enthusiasm amongst a larger and larger segment of the population who feel somewhat used.
If he gets a 2nd term, it won’t be due to his “winning” any such thing.
Lies, frauds, theft, chcanery, zombie-voters, you name it.
He might achieve his goal, but he won’t have won a damn thing. At least, not in any legitimate sense of the word.

Since we’re guessing, I’ll guess that we should all get our asses to the polls and vote for the Mormon.
All right-thinking voters who sit on their asses at home on November 6 because they think their votes won’t do any good should lose their citizenship and be run out of the country on a rail.
Republicans had a chance several years ago to prevent the Carson Clan’s dynastic succession in the House. But they sat on their ass during the special election and didn’t vote.
MotherfuckersIndianapolis Republicans infuriate me.Well played, John Lien.
I get this type of thing all the time. I’m handed a program that’s not doing what it ought to do, maybe a program I’ve never looked at. Manager describes the problem, then asks how long it’ll take to fix. I don’t know. I might find it in minutes, it may take me days. What I can tell them is I’m the best damn debugger in the office, so there’s no one here that’ll find it faster than I will.
I guess it won’t turn out the way the customer wants it, because they never know what they want until you’re done.
