I thought voters would have learnt their lesson then, The lies can't be that appealing.

Ho-Oh January 29th, 2007 3:41 AM

Yeah. I'd probably vote for the less liked side, because they normally seem to be more truthful.

Yah.

Ho-Oh January 29th, 2007 3:49 AM

I can tell the difference between stupidity and good, so yeah. The second reason is probably why I would be voting for them.

Stupidity doesn't deserve to win.

Kylie-chan January 29th, 2007 2:55 PM

As a collective, all of humanity is stupid anyway, might as well vote for the one that's less likely to send hitmen after rebels.

doesn't matter January 29th, 2007 3:20 PM

Heh, I probably won't care about who I'm voting for till I tun 25 or something, and hence end up doing donkey votes till that age.

I think I'm just too lazy to really care ^_^

That's nice... but next time try to comment on the current topic first before you go and randomly change the subject like that. We're trying to promote real conversations in here, and having people come in with random comments doesn't really help.

Anyway, speaking of concerts or whatever, I'm going to one on Thursday. I'm so excited. <3

And on the previous topic of voting and politics... I'm not really into politics all that much mainly because I just don't have the time to listen to everything that's going on in the world. However, I did vote last election day.

I'm happy. The superbowl may be coming to the city where I live!!! [Fort Wayne, IN]

Goku Goku January 29th, 2007 7:20 PM

On the politics, I couldn't care less about it, but if i voted I would vote for who I think will do a good job. Really though these leaders are just there to act as our head of state - it's all about the laws. ;)

Never been to a concert, but I would go to maybe a Japanese concert! :D

Ho-Oh January 29th, 2007 7:44 PM

I can't remember whether I had been to a concert, but from what I see on TV, and news, I don't think I'd want to go to any. Ecept if it was Pokemon or any anime I know, which would be very unlikely.

Mario Famous January 29th, 2007 8:41 PM

When I went to Japan to handle some business, I went to a Puffy ami Yumi concert. Lol, this was a while ago...some of my friends wanted to go to it so badly so I decided to go with them. Aside from trying translate the songs fast enough to keep up, it was actually pretty good.

Simplicity January 29th, 2007 11:22 PM

I'm not into concerts, not that type of person...^_^;

I just started school today, the pain...8D The only good thing was that my friend moved up a class so now she's in my class..which take all the pain away. xD

I love going to concerts. I've been to probably 30 major shows in the last 4 years or so. XD

Goku Goku January 30th, 2007 12:11 AM

I'm also not a concert person. I remember going to this Pokemon event at the mall once...does that count as a concert? :P

Ho-Oh January 30th, 2007 12:17 AM

Pokemon doesn't count..If it did...well, they should have live Pokemon. Of which they don't. Nintendo events for Pokemon are fun anyway.

My Dad's side is okay, by games, but when they havent got a controller stuck in their sweaty little hands, they are stupid as.

I've never known my dad's side of the family well. My mum's side is quite small, even though she has a brother and a sister, one is which has children. We've got a few cousins in the family, but I haven't got many uncle's etc. I'm not sure if I'm really bothered though, I'm really close to the family I've got, so that's good. And then I'm really close to my aunt's family. Even though they aren't really related to me, we get on quite well~

o_o Yeah~ My mom's side of the family's small, too~ @@ She only has a sister and she's married and doesn't have any kids~
._. My dad's family is HUUUGGEEE though~~ @@; I have so many cousins..
._. It's too bad that I don't like most of them -3- They're really cruel to me..

._. But oh well~~ X3 We can't change that, neh?
Puu~ o.o~

Drummershuff January 30th, 2007 9:10 AM

I think my dad's side is pretty small, I wouldn't know though. I know his dad died a few years ago, so I wouldn't have a granddad there either, heh. And I know he's got a sister with... maybe a child. That's all I really know about his side.

Dawson January 30th, 2007 9:27 AM

My family is huge on both of my parents' sides. Between them, my parents had sixteen brothers and sisters, although three have died in the past few years. And I've lost count of the number of cousins I have, a rough guess would be in the thirty-fourty region.

My family is quite old fashioned in that way, in the need to have a large family. As most aunts and uncles have three or four kids, even in my family there are four. And because of how I was brought up, I want a pretty big family too, with three or four kids.

Ryoutarou January 30th, 2007 9:42 AM

My grandparents had a lot of kids, on both sides, it's like they used that bed for everything but actual sleep. My aunts and uncle don't have that many kids, maybe two or three, but I have like 20 aunts and uncles, so it still adds up to be a pretty big family. I've got 50 or so cousins in total, of which I've probably only ever met 20ish, if that.

Sorano January 30th, 2007 10:03 AM

My family is pretty small, I think. :x A lot of my family members live in England, so I've never met them before. I only personally know 9 cousins, 5 aunts {one is in England}, 3 uncles, my Grandpa and Grandma, my Nana and Papa, my great-grandmother, and my parents and brother. I consider that small. XD; And out of those I only see one aunt and uncle, Grandpa, Nana and Papa, 4 cousins and my parents and brother frequently. The others are either dead or don't get along well with my other family members.

*~Ashley~* January 30th, 2007 10:16 AM

My mom's side of the family is Italian, so it's huge. She only has one sister with two sons, so our close family isn't big. But my grandmother has two brothers and a sister, and each of them has at least three children. She was the only one that only had two. And at family events, EVERYONE is invited, so it's a lot of people. And all of my mom's cousins have at least two kids each. My cousin and I are the oldest, then there's my cousin and my sister... and almost everyone else is under the age of eight. ><;;

My dad's side is smaller, but I have more cousins. He has a sister and two brothers. And all of them have children. I have *counts* six cousins and two half cousins on that side of the family. And one of my cousins has two kids now. The only one younger than me (other than those two babies) on this side of the family is my sister...

My family isn't *that* big though. I don't see most of them often anyway. Usually just for Christmas or other special events. I see my mom's family more often though, since they are Italian, after all. And then there's the random people related to me that live in either Italy or Australia, but I obviously never see them. XD;

That's one of the reasons why I love how big my family is. Milestone birthday/anniversary parties, engagements, wedding receptions have always been huge. We have to rent out a pub or social club for the evening just to fit everybody in. For one celebration, we'll have upwards of one hundred people there consisting of relatives, partners of relatives and their friends too.

Also, the majority of my cousins are roughly my age or older. I am one of the youngest of the cousins, but 80% of us range between 15-25 years old now. So it was always fun growing up with them, being how we're of similar ages.

MegaFuz January 30th, 2007 1:27 PM

My family is incredibly small. My dad's side of the family is a lot larger than my mom's side, but still not as big as a lot of families. I think I have something like a total of 6 cousins, only 4 of which I see regularly.

I hate it, actually. I hate having all these really annoying people that I don't really know or like coming to everything. Just to be nice, I've always been forced to go and hug everyone and say hi to them, even when I don't even know who they are, and it's annoying. <<;

My mom's side sucks because it's mostly little kids. It's my cousin Craig and I who are both 18, then my cousin Justin is 16. My sister's only 13. The four of us are really, really close though. And then most everyone else I either can't stand or they're under the age of eight...

And then on my dad's side, I'm one of the youngest. I always feel awkward around them because I'm so much younger than they are. The next youngest other than my sister and me is one of my cousins who is 20, I believe. Everyone else is in their mid-upper 20s.
