Gloating Truce

[angus]

ANGUS, to get to the gloat/no gloat point we have to remember.....first, we kill all the lawyers.....

hm.  at this point I think you are willing MarkDel to rise from the grave.

but yeah, seriously.  Pussies complain.  Take your medicine and be done with it.  If the people choose Bush, well that's fantastic.  If not, the better luck next time.   That's the way they taught it to us in school.  But then that was before the boomer generation (e.g., Bubba and GWB became the 'in-charge' generation)

imagine how it'll be when the genXers grow up.  ouch!

I have a nasty feeling that  tomorrow evening/night/morning a lot of gloating and self pity is going to happen here...

And I do NOT want to see that happen.

Here's my suggestions to avoid it:

1. Set up a "Gloat" thread and a "Mope" thread
2. Encourage gloaters/mopers to head to gwbush.com or freerepublic.com
3. Sign a pledge not to do either

Please note that gloating about getting ever state and % correct is fine. That's not what I'm worried about. What I'm worried about is threads with titles like:

BIN LADEN/OIL MEN IS/ARE HAPPY NOW THAT KERRY/BUSH IS [STILL] PRESIDENT

FRAUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WE WHIPPED YOU'RE ASS!!!!!!!!!

BUSH IS BACK!!! NOW YOU COMMIES WILL PAY!!!!
KERRY'S BEATEN BUSH!!! NOW YOU NAZI'S WILL PAY!!!

NADER WAS THE TRUE WINNER!!!!!!

etc etc etc

I will not agree to this truce.

We've waited for 500 days for the election and cannot gloat? ---

actually good point.

I'm allowing myself 12 hours of gloating and then i'll stop, if Kerry wins. my signature was luckily in pencil

[??????????]

I promise I WILL Gloat when my boy wins. And yes you can count on me to do it...I won't do that stuff you said..but I will say YEARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...We're goin to Wisconsin, to Florida, To Ohio, To PA and all the way back to DC YEARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I won't gloat, but I reserve the right to sound really depressed if Bush loses.
