Congrats fuckface, you did something you were supposed to do.

This is right up there with Facebook posts about pictures of meals. Way to go, you have proven you can survive by making a meal and eating.

It's one of the worst days on Facebook and in the office. Everyone proudly letting you know that they voted, like it is some kind of astonishing achievement. Nobody gives a flying fuck that you voted.

And if you feel the unwarranted need to let everyone know you voted, then everyone should be required to also disclaim who/what they voted for. You think it's so damn important that everyone knows that you voted today? Then tell us exactly what you chose. Oh you don't want to? Then shut the fuck up!

Disagree. Especially when it comes to African Americans....there was once a time where we couldn't vote.

Our voting system is one of the greatest in the world, it should be okay to celebrate once every 2-4 years.

I gotta agree. BFD. Do your job and act like you've been there before.

I can only meet you half way on that. Unless you are a living person who was eligible to vote back then and couldn't, and now you can, then you can feel proud.

If not, move on. That time has passed, you were born into a time where everyone can vote who meets the standard requirements.

I just slap one of those stickers on my shirt and move along. If you are proud enough to talk about going
that is certainly your perogative. Once every four years isn't enough to DB someone for it. If someone has
the gall to ask me who I voted for then I may need to agree with you.

Why especially? Poor white people and women were not given that right either.

But in the black community, there is always this idea that we don't care.

I think we need more "people" thread in this section.


I plan to vote after work. I plan to post about it here and/or Facebook. If you don't like that, eat a dick.

Is that how you feel others are perceiving the community or how you percieve the community?

Agreed Frank.

Live and let live y'all. How much of a pain is it that someone posted on Facebook that they voted? A lot of people post a lot of stuff on Facebook. Let it be.

I swear...buncha old grumpy fucks on this board sometimes.

I'm voting for Obama based on Romney's skin color.

Awesome second post. I can't wait to see what is next!

What about the (presumably) hundreds of thousands of people who vote for Romney based solely on the skin color of his opponent?

edit...damn you Kid!

That I agree with.

If you don't vote, you can't complain about anything!

If you're a Republican in Illinois and you abstain from voting because Obama already won the state and your congressional districts have been hysterically gerrymandered, I think you can still complain.

You know, this SomeGuy thing isn't working out. I'm thinking of making a best friend change.

*SIGH*

Kamps is always like the big brother who gets all the attention. He's the popular varsity superstar. The prom-king type.

Me? I'm the younger unpopular brother sitting back in the shadows saying, "Hey...I'm just as good as that guy, damn it!"

What I'm saying KS is: I will punch you in the head until your ears bleed.

You could stay off Facebook for a day. Nomination denied. If someone posts a picture of a meal, then remove them from your feed. It's not that hard.

For your Facebook...
