Stop Using Stupid Words
Well, I was pretty busy this week, so I didn't have time to write a real entry. I did want to point out something, though. Browsing around some other blogs reading about Obama and McCain and their vice presidential candidate choices, I noticed something that really irritates me. If you're one of those people who likes to use words like Rethuglicans, Republicons, Dimmycrat, Dumbocrat, John McSame, Barack Osama bin Laden, or any of those other plays on words, STOP IT! It's not funny. It makes you sound stupid.
As I had to get across to my daughter when she was even younger than she is now, a joke's only funny once. Repeating a joke ad nauseum just makes it look like you're unoriginal.
Please, just use the real terms for these things. Politics is bad enough as it is without resorting to childish name calling.

That's asking a little much don't you think? I mean, if some people didn't use stupid words they wouldn't have anything to say. Oh, I see where you're going with that.
