The universe according to MMM

[MultiMillionMiler]

MMM what you need to learn about politics is that voting is often choosing the lesser of 2 evils. And it's sometimes important to get the lesser evil in over the greater evil.

Not my responsibility, there could be a major thing about both candidates I don't like, so I am not going to have that on my conscience. Too bad, not my problem. Most issues being voted on at the moment don't affect me anyway. I have never seen even a semi-reasonable candidate in a primary. Even for NY Governor, it would be extremely hard to determine which of them was less of the two evils.

@Hobart, what a ridiculous comment! The force you experience is the sum of the 2 cars! And it's much easier to avoid workers (there aren't any in half of the construction zones in NY/NJ) that are 2-3 lanes away on the shoulder than a car that's barely 1 lane away traveling toward you. The closing speed of 160 mph makes it even harder to see the car flying up on you whereas passing the workers at 80 you can see them faster, and they aren't in the road. There is no reason whatsoever for that 45 mph speed limit section on the Jersey Turnpike. Drivers driving hundreds of miles on US 93 are more likely to get bored/drowsy, stop paying attention and drift on roads like that, so it's not unheard of for there to be head on crashes on long undivided roads like that.

OK, if you don't want to vote, that's fine. I'm not hating on you for that. But don't complain about actions of politicians if you couldn't even bother to show up to vote them out.

[roadman65]

I voted for the lesser of two evils and got chastised over it, but it won't stop me from voting again. 

[kalvado]

I declare today's round won by the trolly with 10:0 score by diverting discussion into politics.
Trolly gets 2 carrots and a cake.

[thspfc]

Taxing the Rich much higher amounts, and also the revenue generated by those strict tolerance speed ticketing cameras that trigger once you exceed the next prime number over the 67 mph speed limit.

The problem is the rich run Washington. Nancy Pelosi, Donald Trump, Joe Biden, even when Bush was head of state he had billions and still does.  They won't let themselves be taxed even though some of them claim they're for higher taxes. You know that. That's why your political life is as active as your sex life remember.
 

You don't vote.

Both a sex filled and politically filled life are meaningless. I don't vote because both sides are assholes who can't ever conceive of a "middleground" in their black and white view on everything.

Also, for those claiming I don't understand physics. Two cars are approaching either other at 80 mph. What's the head on collision speed if one drifts over the line?

Former libertarian here! Have you ever heard of voting third party?

Voting third party is essentially subtracting a vote from your preferred major party. People who vote third party and then complain incessantly about a major party make no sense to me. If you wanted a republican president/senate/house/whatever, you should have voted republican. (And the equivalent for democratic.)

I would love to see this thread get locked over where it's headed, but we damn well know it will resurface in another board topic.

Wonder what would happen if there was a forum wide election on banning MMM from this forum. How would that election go? And the more politics get brought up the more likely this shit is to get locked. And maybe that's a good thing.

And just to add to previous comments: I consider myself libertarian, but why would I bother voting for some random 3rd party that there's a 100% chance they will lose, when even voting for the 2 main candidates likely won't change the result?

[kphoger]

@Hobart, what a ridiculous comment! The force you experience is the sum of the 2 cars!

The total force involved in the collision, perhaps, but not for each car involved.

If a car slams into a granite wall at 80 mph, it is stopped immediately in its tracks.  If two cars of equal size and mass collide head-on, each vehicle is stopped immediately in its tracks.  Each vehicle experiences the same force either way.

Or, to think about it in a different way, if a car is traveling at 80 mph and is hit head-on with a force of 160 mph, it would then travel backward at 80 mph.  This is obviously not what happens in a head-on collision.

I understand this, and I've never even taken a single physics class in my life.

You don't have a job. Just drag your ass to the polls on the first Tuesday in November and spend very little time (since NY has low voter turnout) making your voice heard. What else are you doing instead, trolling this forum more?

[MultiMillionMiler]

No. Not happening. Besides there's a higher risk of me getting a cold/covid from all the people touching the same areas. No one hears voter's voices LMAO. Even most politicians don't end up giving a crap about the people who voted them in. Why should I bother voting for a 3rd party when both major candidates have tens of millions of votes, and the 2rd party person may get 10,000?

Some girl named Krista said because I didn’t vote for Mitt Romney I was casting a ballot for Obama as I voted neither in the 2012 election.

Think about it in such a way - people don't like my little trolly, but rush to feed him once they get a chance - including political topics everyone pretends are undesired.
Calling for a vote would be fun as there will be a mob rushing to prove how much they dislike poor lil'trolly. 
I would rate this trolly as 8.5/10, the slimest I saw for a while!

He definitely attracts a lot of clowns!

No. Not happening. Besides there's a higher risk of me getting a cold/covid from all the people touching the same areas.

According to the CDC:  "It is possible for people to be infected through contact with contaminated surfaces or objects (fomites), but the risk is generally considered to be low."

No one hears voter's voices LMAO.

Were you really laughing so hard you thought your ass might fall off?  Why?

I will say MMM is amazing. Never met anyone like him before. He would sure amuse the late Sam Ripley.

[Scott5114]

US 93 is a 2 lane road, it definitely needs to become an interstate so there's no risk of having a head on collision at 160 mph.

A head on collision with what?

He manages to tow the line enough so he doesn't get banned. Most others like him fuck up quickly and get banned.
