I agree with everything you're saying, except my john is just down the hall...so when we're going, we don't need roads

Oh man, I envy your opinion of other people. Hold onto that as long as you can.

Internationally, most people mean the pro-corporate anti-regulation right when they say liberals. It's exclusively a U.S. thing afaik to equate liberalism with anything left of center, which causes a lot of confusion.

You're probably right, but you'd have to make it to court. Not everyone does..

Absorbent, because he's a sponge. Absorbent and yellow and porous. Obnoxiousness is just bonus.

Depends on which American you're speaking to. It's a big country.

More than one thing can be bad.

Was R2D2's narration intended to be subtitled...?

I absolutely agree, and having lived through it, it's infuriating the way they intentionally exclude/call out kids whose parents haven't signed them up or who haven't sold any trash. They'll send the kids home to sign up 10 email addresses and on the second day they'll come back with some piece of shit stuffed animal for everybody who did it. A little kid doesn't understand that the whole thing is a fucking scam. They're just sitting in school watching the rest of their class play with cool new toys.

Public primary and secondary schools do not typically have stadiums.

Scratch is a simple drag and drop app kids use to learn to code. I've seen kids create pretty elaborate games with it. Maybe you could play with that and figure out if your concept is in fact simple enough to create on your own.

Wouldn't you be installing a new set of elites with incredible power, though? After all, someone has to count and interpret the votes. Hopefully the minimum number of people required to check and to balance is not larger than the maximum number of people capable of fruitful collaboration.
