Presidential Elections

I really didn't think that I was going to do this, because well... I'm not a political person. But, this has just gotten so out of hand, I wanted to express my thoughts on the matter.

Obama won, bitches. Get over it. Is he my first choice for president? No. Is Romney? No. But I'm not sitting here getting all butt hurt about who won. You voted and at the end of the day, that's all you can do.

If you didn't vote, and you're complaining. Shut up. You didn't even participate. 
If you can't vote because you're not eligible for whatever reason

• Not legal age
• Not U.S. citizen

Then you're cool, no worries. 

If you did NOT use your right to vote and you were able to, don't even open your mouth to complain. YOUR vote could have made the difference.

Anyway, moving on. You people are WAY. TOO. TENSE! You know what Obama is like, so why are you sitting there acting like the world is going to end. Four years. Four freaking more years. I'm sure you can spare that much. If you don't like it, do something about it. Move out of the country if you have to. 
To the people who are being incredibly childish:
Stop with the name calling. 

What? You think calling a black president a rag head lover and "nigger" makes you cool or something? No, it makes you sound like an uneducated racist. Who, in my opinion, have no standing in society. Seriously.
I'm not going to sit here and defend Obama because I think he's the best choice (as stated earlier), but I am defending him because he's the one who is getting shit thrown at him...
... verbally speaking, of course.

People want the world to end 21st December, 2012? Seriously? Are you mental?! Again, four years of a guy running the country or the end of your life? One seems a bit extreme compared to the other. 

I'm going to catch a lot of hell for this, I'm sure... but Americans piss me the hell off. Get over yourselves. Seriously. Be happy that you even have this right. You've done the best you can, but now you have to live with what the country, as a whole, thinks is best.  

On a side note, I'd like to happily announce that Tammy Baldwin won her race. She is the first openly gay person to win a seat in the United States Senate. Congratulations to you, ma'am. And congratulations to the other 18 women (I'm pretty sure it's 18 at least) who won seats. 

And congratulations to everyone who got to where they wanted to be. 

What are your thoughts about the elections and their results?

I Got Lost With English (What?)

Oh my gosh. I can't even tell you how confused the first time I had an intense conversation with an English(wo)man. Yeah, I did that.

Obviously it's not as difficult as talking to someone who is... oh let's say... French. Or German. Or Korean. Basically anyone who doesn't have English as their first language. Or really speaks English at all, but that's not the point I'm making.
So you might ask: Why was it confusing?

The answer: Their the meanings of their words are different!
Not everything of course, but some are, and needless to say, it really threw me off.

Like:

Brilliant is pretty much the equivalent to "great". When I think of brilliant, I think of super smart. Genius maybe. So needless to say, it was a change, nothing to really matter though. You kind of get the gist of it. Personally, I like "brilliant" better. Just sayin'.

Pants are "trousers". Pants are underwear. Awkward social events can definitely be avoided. "Hey, I really like your pants." Wait, what? I'm not going to lie, I don't know anyone who would say that, but I was just trying to give you an example. If you're the one who does actually say that, I'm going to pick on you.

What the heck is wrong with you?! Why are you looking at someone's pants trousers long enough to comment on them?

Just kidding. I'll admit, some people wear really distracting clothes, so I won't judge you.


.... Aaaaannnndddd. Reverse.


Do you watch the BBC Sherlock? If you do, you're awesome. And you would also know what a flat is (and what flatmates are) within the first episode. For those of you who do not, and just don't want to be bothered with it... what are you doing here?
No, I'm sorry. Please stay. It'll make me feel loved.
Anyway. The BBC. Sherlock. Flat. Apartment. The building you live in when you don't have a house. Get it? Got it? Good.


The toilet is next! In a house or flat or whatever, a bathroom is a room with a bath in it. Though most of you will learn the difference in school. Instead of bathroom, in public, here, you say "restroom". And there's something you can pass on to your children. You're welcome.
No one will no what a bathroom or restroom is out in public- or so I'm told. Personally, I think someone can put two and two together... and being a big tourist attraction, I think they would get use to American words/phrases. Don't hold me to that, though. Anyway, that's in public.

The tube. Guys, the tube. I love this. Subway, underground train... whatever. Tube. Is. Awesome. I could laugh and make jokes about this, but I don't want to offend anyone.
... and I need to keep this PG.

"Oh yes, wait a minute mister postman..." Think The Carpenters. If you don't know who they are... Youtube, my friends. It'll become your new best friend. Anyway, postman. I'm sure it's not rocket science to figure out what that is. Right?

Yeah! You got it right! Well, if you said mailman you got it right. So easy. Learn it. Know it. Love it.

Okay, I know I said I would keep this PG, but pubs, in their own rights, are not. I don't, maybe bump it up to PG-13. Use your imagination, people. So anyway. PUBS! Bars. A place where you go play pool (among other things) and you drink and socialize to your hearts content.

And we're taking another turn.

You know how you all like driving down the freeway motorway? Yeah, I hate it too. Car rides aren't exactly the best things to look forward to.

See what I did there? No? Look again.

Anyway, I hope you've all enjoyed my wonderful whatnots. I'll be back with more. Definitely more opinions and more jokes. It's a slow day. Don't hate me.

Questions, comments, remarks? Anything I've said that you don't agree with or I got wrong. Words. Words, words, words.
