that's fine, no one said you had to give a damn. Please remember that you do not speak for C3PX, he can decide for himself whether or not he gives a damn about this "childish vote"
Oddly, while ABC and I speak differently languages, we seem to communicate with each other very well.
all I can say is that half the time, I can't understand what the hell he is trying to get at. He comes off to me as very confusing.

He didn't have to speak for me on how childish I thought your vote was, I made it clear myself by stating how ridiculous (or childish, if you will) I thought the vote was from the very beginning, added with my coin toss, which was meant to drive my point home, but you took it seriously.
Or, rather than saying all of that, I could simply say ABC is right, I don't give a damn about your childish vote, I think it was silly and that you simply used it as a means to ignore the opinions that should have really mattered while childishly taking pressure off of yourself. Now if you are ever tempted to join in a political discussion, you can simply reason with yourself that you cannot do it because the community doesn't want you to.
twice I listed the vote tally, twice it said that both C3PX and ABC voted nay. You two had plenty of time to change your votes, you didn't. That says to me that you didn't mind too much having your votes go into the books as "nay" votes.
We both made it clear that we thought your election was really stupid and wanted no part of it. And we both reasoned with you that our votes should not really be counted, but I don't think either of us really wanted to reach down to the level of actually playing along and asking you to "invalidate" our votes, especially not when we had already made clear how we felt.
fine, whatever. as I said, the election results are thrown out.

ABC, if you truly don't give a damn about the "childish vote", why argue over how your vote is counted. In fact, why are you even posting in this thread. Of course, you have the right to post in what ever thread you want. But I can't help but ask why someone whom doesn't give a damn about the vote on which this thread is based would post here.
Because the way you are acting is really weird and at the same time really annoying. I never gave a damn about your election, but I do give a damn about you and our discussions.
sorry for annoying you. I do believe your reasons for posting here, I do not believe that is ABC's motivation.

I'm not willing to enter your life, but man, this topic should be called:
"SHOULD WARB FIND HIMSELF A REAL LIFE ?"
... (edited the bad taste add).
again this and the deleted comment were uncalled for. You don't think I know I need to get a life? trust me, I know. I don't have any real life friends and never had a girl friend. I KNOW I need a life. I don't need you to tell me that.
I think ABC is frustrated because you make it so clear that "you don't have a life" when all you need to do is stand up and pick one up if you want one, but you make it abundantly clear on these forums that you have no desire to do so.
I do have a desire to do so. You make it sound as easy as flipping on a light switch. Its not. Whenever I have tried to "get a life" I've always failed and fallen flat on my ass.
C3PX said:
"Real life friends"? What are real life friends? Obviously I know what you mean, and I sympathize with you. But I am a real person, and I consider you my friend. Would that have been any different if I met you in real life? I don't see why not. We may live a long ways away, and never have met face to face, but I still consider you a friend. If I was ever passing through the Philly area, I would PM you and see if we could met up. I'd PM you my phone number and tell you to call me whenever you are bored or need someone to talk to, would that make me more of a real friend?
maybe, we'll thankyou for the offer.

Sorry if you feel like ABC and I have been judging you. That really wasn't my intention, and I am pretty sure it wasn't ABC's either. To be honest, I am just annoyed that you put so much merit into this whole stupid election thing, and won't be having anymore political discussion just because of it. Hopefully you will still be active in other off-topic forums, I'd miss you if you just disappeared.
*sigh* maybe I was a little childish about it. I just wanted to make this as close to a forum poll as possible. If this forum had had the capability, I would have create a real poll, but it doesn't.
I guess I shall just have to make up my own mind as to whether or not to resume talking politics. But what about this? :

However, in conclusion realizing how seriously you took this election and the opinions (or non-opinions) of people that should not even matter now has me convinced your decision not to discuss politics is a wise one. You are obviously not out to earn or gain anything, but simply to remain fixed in your ways. In such an event, keeping them inside your head or discussing them only with people equally fixed on likeminded ideas is probably the best policy to maintain.
I'm sorry I blew up. Its just that ABC has been getting on my nerves and hit on a sensitive area.
