Thats it. Thanks! So weird. I kind of loved it, though.

If it were not before your time I would be even more interested in speaking with you.

Gaston would have no fucks to give about this, I feel.

Alright, well, I'm probably going to show my midwest US public school slacker ignorance here, but it was my understanding that the electoral college was implemented because the country was already large and communication was by horse or rail. Hypothetically if one of the candidates murdered someone right before the election people far away might not hear about it for months, so a delegate was granted the power to say "You know what? In light of recent events, I feel confident that most people in my state would prefer the other guy"

Well when you put it that way...

I forgot to say this at the time, but thanks for the response. You helped me to understand the issue.

Of course you arent. I submit my revised comment:

Good Person, I am far too crotchety to be excusing typos. You should be ashamed. I demand a retraction, and I will be writing a very tersely worded letter to your editor.

I think that you will find that taking into consideration the unused spaces I have met your requirements, but of course I welcome any notes that you may have. - Cas

I might be a little fucked up.

[-] CassowaryTom@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago

Thank you for your service, Sir, madam, or other.

Wow these are still a thing? I used to ride my bike 5 miles to play rogue on a BBS connected Tandy in like 1991. I thought it was Bulletin Board Service, though
