Politics

I'll admit to having participated in the updates, but missed the politics part - when I was looking at it, it just seemed to be a bunch of references to the movie Clerks.  Did something change, or was there something that went over my head?

It was certainly a reference to the 37 counts against Trump that were revealed today in the latest indictment against him (and, yes, it's a reference from Clerks as well).

Ah, right.  Haven't really been following the news this week.  Appreciate the clarification.

I did not catch that either, but then again I do not live my life looking at everything through the spectrum of politics.

Was wondering that as well. I don't see anything but a numerical coincidence, but if it keeps things level then I guess it's necessary. I was enjoying talking about clerks though. Nice to know that I'm not the only one here who has gone so far as memorizing lines. Around the turn of the century, I had a copy get stuck in a VCR and I watched it more times than I care to admit before I got to disassembling the VCR to extract it.

 

"No time for love Dr Jones," is the absolute best blow-off in history.

Clerks came out when I was in college so my roommate and I pretty much lived with it on in the background 24/7.

It was one of my main insights into certain aspects of American culture before moving to the US a few years after it came out.  Won't go so far as to say that it shaped all of my preconceived notions about the place, but it definitely played into it.

Speaking of political stuff, I'm getting tired of all these Pat Paulsen for President status updates.

Spoiler

Did you know? I'm old enough to remember Pat Paulsen.

These seem nice and retro feel, but one broke instantly on first use! Had to return.

First evening playing with one of these joysticks, pushed to go hard left and heard a snap. Has been noisy going left since and doesn't seem as responsive. I would not recommend these. Of course, as a fathers day gift, the return window had closed just the day before this happened.
