I swear by my pretty floral bonnet I will end you.

In relation to gaming it gained popularity in 1995 (Magic the Gathering).

So it’s because originally people did vote for the vice president. It’s left over from before the 12th amendment. So part of your vote is for the line of succession.

I’m not terribly happy with it, but of all the things wrong it’s way down on the list of things I’m not happy about.

Our presidential election is on a set schedule and never changes. I’m not thrilled about that either because there’s no real way for the people to recall a jackass. And as the current jackass has shown, the position is really just an elected king that’s kicked out in a few years.

Yes. So here’s how it works. The vice president is the backup president. If the president is out the VP is sworn in. If the VP serves more than half a term it counts as a term. If less, it doesn’t count and they can still serve two full terms afterwards.

I’m not going to speculate on his health. I will, however, say that there was a conspiracy theory going around when Biden was elected that two years and one day into his term he’d mysteriously die so that the Dems could install the first female president who could be president for the next two years plus two terms.

Now I’m not accusing anyone of anything, but I’ve noticed a lot of things that they accuse the Democrats of they are actually doing. Will we get president Vance in a year and change, who would still be eligible? Could he reverse enough of the publicly batshit insane policies (while leaving in the quietly batshit insane ones that fuck us over for decades) to win support from low information voters?

I actually don’t believe this, but every time someone says Trump is gonna die I remember how adamant some Republicans were that iden would die and they’d have to deal with 10 years of being bossed around by a woman.

I watched that episode of Harvey Birdman this morning while ignoring a meeting.

At .4% I call it Death. By 25% I think that’s just a type of embalming procedure.

That’s the way I’ve heard it used. This person knows/is complicit/is involved in a thing but they ain’t said shit yet. It would be the opposite of the old cliche phrase about a stool pigeon singing.

Never attribute to malice what can be explained by plain old dumbfuckery. These podunk inbreds may do it for kicks (some of them are definitely malicious enough), but I think it’s pretty likely that they got someone named Cooter to do the final installation.

This information is brought to you by a drunk that looks like he could be named Cooter. Or possibly Cletus.
