Andrew: i have a windows computer now
Andrew: I can play deus ex
me: good game, bra
me: also you can download the convenient new Daggerfall package
me: with 500 percent fewer bugs
Andrew: daggerfall?
Andrew: its 2011
Andrew: get your shit together, man
me: NO
me: I was playing Oblivion again, game's all gay
me: oh, also
Andrew: yeah - fucking 3rd dimension
me: been playing Minecraft
me: online
me: on PvP faction servers
me: now that's some cool stuff
me: new update coming soon, too
Andrew: NO SHIT
me: and they've got pistons now
Andrew: I told you months ago to mplay minecraft and you laughed
me: no I didn't
Andrew: the new version has villages and npcs
me: I bought Minecraft like a year ago
me: yeah, saw new video
me: so, you should play Minecraft online with me, we can start a little faction and build mechanical whatnots
me: and defend our mechanical whatnots from 16-year-olds with ADHD
Andrew: story of my life
me: upper management's that bad, eh?
Andrew: users are that bad
me: YOU SHOULD READ THAT COMIC STRIP DILBERT
Andrew: HOLY SHIT IS IT ABOUT THE DRUDGERY OF CORPORATE SOFTWAARE DEVELOPMENT?
me: oh, also
me: you need to be reading Redstate.com again
me: keeping up with the feuds
me: apparently Rick Perry is too pro-Islamic for some people
Andrew: rick perry willd efinitely win the nomination
me: because he may have ok'd an educational program that somewhere in its 300 pages says nice things about Islam
me: seriously
me: Pam Geller says so
me: and then that sparked a massive blog-o-fight
Andrew: not sure why they are even voting
me: well, keep in mind, man
me: Giuliani was going to win the 2008 nomination
me: and so was Romney
me: and McCain was supposedly doomed
me: things happen
me: I'd say he's most likely, yeah, but just keep that in mind
Andrew: you're right, of course
Andrew: but given no upset news flashes
Andrew: or massive media bumbles
me: but, yeah, Minecraft
Andrew: Who's his running mate? he's already cozied himself a bit with teapartiers
Andrew: so he doesnt need bachmann unfortunately
me: well, he might end up needing her
me: if there ends up being bad blood
me: like with Obama making Clinton VP
me: OR CHRISTINE O'DONNELL
Andrew: that would be interesting
Andrew: the bad blood part
me: the bad blood is inevitable and already going down
Andrew: except people have been predicting a GOP schism for a decade
Andrew: and the clinton fallout turned out to be hot air
me: yep
me: but it does have a long enough effect to lower turnout among a party
me: hence why Obama might have lost had he not made Clinton his VP
me: you remember how fucking angry those Clinton people were
Andrew: to quote an old favorite
me: yes
me: I know
me: AND FOR WHAT?
Andrew: obama would have to be caught in bed with a dead girl or live boy to lose
me: oh
me: AN INADEQUATE BLACK MALE?
me: THAT'S NOT MY AMERICA
me: I WILL NOT SHUT MY MOUTH
Andrew: THATS NOT EVEN MEXICO
me: I'M TIRED OF SHUTTING MY MOUTH
me: nice
