1) It’s your birthday. Someone gives you a calfskin wallet. How do you react?

Dude. Free wallet.

2) You’ve got a little boy. He shows you his butterfly collection plus the killing jar. What do you do?

Mere insects cannot feel pain in any way that a human could recognise.

3) You’re watching television. Suddenly you realize there’s a wasp crawling on your arm.

Act natural. wait for it to fly away, and then kill it mercilessly once it's in no position to retaliate.

4) You're reading a magazine. You come across a full-page nude photo of a girl. You show it to your wife. She likes it so much, she hangs it on your bedroom wall. The girlis lying on a bearskin rug.

Alright.

5) You’re in a desert walking along in the sand when all of the sudden you look down, and you see a tortoise, it’s crawling toward you. You reach down, you flip the tortoise over on it's back. The tortoise lays on it's back, it's belly baking in the hot sun, beating it's legs trying to turn it'self over, but it can’t, not without your help. But you’re not helping. Why is that?

If god is omnipotent, why do bad things happen to good people?

6) Describe in single words, only the good things that come into your mind about your mother.

Nah.

7) You become pregnant by a man who runs off with your best friend, and you decide to get an abortion.

Hard to go on an epic quest of revenge when you're pregnant.

8) One more question: You're watching a stage play - a banquet is in progress. The guests are enjoying an appetizer of raw oysters. The entree consists of boiled dog stuffed with rice. The raw oysters are less acceptable to you than a dish of boiled dog.

Oysters are more alien than dogs.

We have ascended to a new level of politics. Yes, we now have found the way, and the rest shall be left behind.

What the fuck does the shitshow called the American election campaign have to do with politics?

It's become a match of who can sling the best Twitter insults rather than policy prescriptions.


Still, it promises to be fun to watch the Democrats goad Trump into a full-scale psychotic break right before our eyes.

A wild Trump appears!

Politics is, like, perception man. The fact you don't get that means....well, there's tests for that.

I'm still waiting to see how a presidential candidate saying they literally want to hit their opponents goes over. I imagine great with Trump supporters, terribly with everyone else. I swear we're not far away from Trump just tweeting links to South Park episodes featuring Candidate Clinton's Snizz. We've pretty much hit that level.

Now I'm thinking of candidates publicly hitting on each other on television.

I won't lie, it'd be a hell of a twist if trump got disqualified (or whatever) because he caught a felony assault charge on live TV.

Nah, Trump is too dedicated to seeming smug to get his hands dirty and Shillary is the kind of person who holds her tongue and gets revenge by inches later. There was a chance of a live TV brawl, but it was during the primary debates with Cruz and Trump.

According to my analysis...

Egan_BW is an honorable man torn between the need to honor his god and the ways of his people and the doubt he feels upon witnessing so many capricious abuses of power.  A leader of his people despite barely being over the age of 90, he constantly plots for freedom.

GreatJustice was born in a Roman Catholic family.  When she was five, a nieghborhood boy urinated into her hand.  She has been infertile ever since she had a botched abortion in college.

I highly doubt he means it. He think it plays to the tough guy image. But it comes across as "Oh yeah well....I could kick your ass!"

Neither a felony assault charge nor conviction prevents someone from running or being elected El Presidente. In fact, it might allow a candidate to play up military credentials.

Straight from ye olde wikipedia:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Now, if the candidate was in an office that allows them to be impeached by the Senate, it's possible that that august body could lay down the "no running for Federal Office" smackdown. I don't believe that any of the still running candidates are in that line of fire, though.

“I’m taking the gloves off. Take the gloves off. Right?” Trump said Friday during a rally in Colorado, his first since the end of Hillary Clinton's Democratic National Convention. “Taking the gloves off! Just remember this: Trump is gonna be no more Mr. Nice Guy.”
Story Continued Below

“Tell Hillary I’m not gonna be nice anymore,” he said. “I’ve been very nice to her. So you ready? Actually, some of the folks I defeated they probably would say, ‘Boy, he was not very nice.’”

“They keep screaming. And you know what I do?” Trump asked. “I’ve been nice. But after watching that performance last night — such lies — I don’t have to be so nice anymore.”

Trump says live on CNN that CNN has stopped covering him live because they don't like him. He says this live on CNN.

this is some next level of salt
