Oh. My. Gosh. Prayers that this will turn the tide on the University campaign. The upcoming generation has been so coddled, they will not be able to lead this great nation. No more ‘safe spaces’. No more ‘language hurts me’. BUCK UP, SNOWFLAKES! This world is not for the timid or the weak!

The rest of us are at work today, slugging it out as usual.

Snowflakes seeing future cushy government jobs evaporating.

Poor babies.

But they couldn't pull themselves together enough to take the exam. LOL.

What incredible pussies.

I seem to recall getting up the next day in 2008 and 2012 and going to work...

I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. MSM ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-grade candidates like Lindsey Graham glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like snowflakes in a microwave. Time to hide in my safe space.

To be candid, scheduling a test for the day after Election Day is a bad idea anyways, unless it is a modern history or Polisci class.

I’d like to take today off to celebrate with a good lunch and to enjoy the sunshine but I’m heading off to the office soon myself.

Only expecting bitter tears and outburts from one elderly co-worker today. He didn’t even vote (or register).

Provide them a quiet room with subdued lighting and whispering music.
