Don't tell me you do this!

Like: That it may storm. Just finished dinner and I just noticed how humpable Rose is from Two and a half Men. God I hope they keep her in the upcoming season.

... are you pregnant?

is it mine?

No, not yet. Trying to find out if I have diabetes.

[Rebekah]

I think he meant me, because I mentioned an ultra sound.

[Tyr]

[Kazuya]

Holy hell that was funny

[Dehan]

Hate writing a few pages and enjoying it but can't post it here. Ah well.

Hate that I came home...again. At least I'll get to see my new nephew tomorrow. Hopefully.

[Kole T. Merr]

Hate: So I'm going home for a week, and what the fuck why is everyone just deciding what I'm going to do with my own time? I don't really want to take apart a bed, take it somewhere, and reassemble it.

Also hate: When my sister calls to tell me things that EASILY could have been said in a text. And then talks for 10 minutes about nothing.

[Rafael]

I feel ya there man. Every time I go on leave seems to coincide with whatever family I'm visiting doing all the cleaning and other nonsense work they've neglected for years.

[Dehan]

Looks like the three of us have similar problems at the moment. I'm a bit content with this though. I'm taking a 'family' break again so they won't be seeing me until the new year, probably around May or June.

Hate that I won't be able to sleep tonight but revenge and karma is a bitch.

Hate: Holding the world economy hostage for the sake of political gain.

Like: That the Republicans doing this are now literally terrorists.

Honestly, I think a lot of this is the Democrats faults, though. The debt ceiling, while absolutely serious, isn't the end of the world. I literally heard a clip of democratic senator using the word "Armageddon" to describe hitting the debt ceiling (if I can find the clip I'll link it). I think it was a tactic to try and get people scrambling to a resolution and that they thought they would be able to work that in their favor.

The Rs called the bluff, so to speak, and now the Ds can't say "well it wasn't as big of a deal as we made it out to be so we're not just going to capitulate." So their only choice is to make it look like the economy is, in fact, being held hostage.

Don't get me wrong, I think it's a serious situation, but I also think it got intentionally blown out of proportion and that back-fired.

EDIT: "Blown out of proportion" isn't the right phrase. I think it was made out to be this immediate, impending doom that has to be drop-everything-and-fix right now.

[Belle Hibiki]

The D's didn't start this rhetoric until after the R's started blocking the process and not acting in good faith. This kind of thing is otherwise routine because it's been done many times... Because it's kind of necessary to keep our economy running smoothly.

As a final note on the rhetoric: if you're going to view the D's as guilty of painting themselves into a corner with their words, it's really not fair of you to ignore the R's that are saying that defaulting - not just hitting Aug 2nd (which isn't auto-default), but actually defaulting - wouldn't hurt us/would be good for us.

It's true that we can reorganize things and prioritize payments to keep basic shit in the Treasury going, most importantly the interest on our bonds because if we didn't pay those we would be really fucked in the A. However, even if we do, it's not going to be pretty... And the longer this situation goes on, the more dangerous and insecure things get.

Didn't ignore intentionally. Simply didn't think to mention it. I absolutely agree. Saying that defaulting wouldn't be that bad is no less ridiculous.

[Jonathan Meer]

I really don't understand this impulse to share blame. Sensational rhetoric in a potentially disastrous situation is not as bad as causing that disastrous situation.

God, remind me never to read the comments on a pro-piracy article again.

Hate: The sense of entitlement in some people.
