Like I say, historically speaking. I guess so far as I'm aware, he didn't lead us into any wars and though his administration was tarnished by the Lewinksi scandal (for which he only has himself to blame, idiot) he was involved in sorting the peace process in Northern Ireland. AND he makes a GREAT Simpsons character. But yes, of course all presidents have flaws; but if you were to rank them and then put the bad ones in one row and the good in another - using these terms very very loosely - like the bride's side and the bridegroom's side, sort of thing, Clinton would I think be put by more people in the good line than the bad.



You should really let that guy out once in a while.

Why? I'm trying to gauge people's reactions to such a thing. Do they automatically assume "Uh-oh, paedo in town!" or do they reserve judgement until they get all the details? Or do they even assume PAEDO is the name of a punk band who can't afford to advertise?

1. Do you bite, clip or cut your fingernails?
I cut them
2. If you see someone being pursued by the law (and assuming it’s nothing to do with you) what is your first thought/reaction?
something like 'oh **** :('. Whether it's justified or erroneous or abuse on the part of the police, something bad is going on
3. Name one thing that could have turned a “good” president (historically speaking - Lincoln, JFK, Clinton, Washington etc) into a bad one, and vice versa. In other words, in case you don’t get the concept, the single event or deed that could have defined their legacy in the exact opposite way it did.
Lincoln not abolishing slavery is the obvious one. Or in the opposite direction, Washington not founding America lol
4. If you were/are in the market for a new pet, how would you go about it? Shelter? Ad in the paper? Online? Pedigree purchase? Friends?
a shelter
5. You move to a new town. Driving or walking by a house, you see the word PAEDO daubed in red on the door. What’s your reaction?
Disgust at stupid lynch mob mentality. Even if they are a pedo, this won't do any good.
6. If you buy something relatively cheap, either online or in a shop, and it doesn’t work as it should, do you usually send/bring it back or just shrug and say it was only a few dollars, I couldn’t be bothered?
shrug

I don't know. True the Republicans did kind of have a bit of a lynch mob after him, but he really was kind of corrupt, and he did seem more concerned about being popular than of being a good President. I personally think Obama was a much better President than Clinton, imo.

Yeah, it does kind of make me think of starting a journal that no one will read of course :laughing: of a critique of each President in American history. Hold me back when I get to Trump though :laughing:

Of course, I thought about doing that, but then, they're all going to be covered in my journal of the History of America, so it would probably have been redundant.

1. Do you bite, clip or cut your fingernails?

Bite.

2. If you see someone being pursued by the law (and assuming it’s nothing to do with you) what is your first thought/reaction?

"Run backwards so they won't shoot you!"

3. Name one thing that could have turned a “good” president (historically speaking - Lincoln, JFK, Clinton, Washington etc) into a bad one, and vice versa. In other words, in case you don’t get the concept, the single event or deed that could have defined their legacy in the exact opposite way it did.

George Bush not starting two imperialist wars would have been based.

4. If you were/are in the market for a new pet, how would you go about it? Shelter? Ad in the paper? Online? Pedigree purchase? Friends?

Shelter.

5. You move to a new town. Driving or walking by a house, you see the word PAEDO daubed in red on the door. What’s your reaction?

*PEDO

Thanks Batty. This I could have done without! :laughing:

This article is about the sexual preference toward prepubescent children. For other types of sexual attraction toward children and adolescents, see hebephilia and ephebophilia. For the sexual abuse of children, see child sexual abuse and statutory rape.

My god, we live in a sick world.

1. What motto do you live, or try to live your life by?
I try to live by the golden rule. It doesn't always work out that way, but I try.

2. Drive slow/normal speed and careful or fast and reckless; everyone can just get out of your way? My mom says I'm a slow driver. I tend to adhere to speed limits. I live in a city where selfishness is at an all time high. Drivers believe that all roads belong to only them.

3. Are you completely convinced there is no afterlife, or do you hope there may be?
I hope there is.

4. What new movie are you most looking forward to?
Going to the movies is almost a foreign concept to me now. My wife is eager to check out Top Gun.

5. When was the last time you changed your TV, and from what to what?
I changed my TV four years ago. I went from a 55" Samsung LCD with blown capacitors to a LG 55" LCD that my kids have tried hard to wreck.

6. How much cash is in your pockets/wallet/purse at the moment (not credit cards)? Cash is still very much a necessity if you ask me. I tend to carry $200-300 at any given time.

1. Do you bite, clip or cut your fingernails?

Clip

2. If you see someone being pursued by the law (and assuming it’s nothing to do with you) what is your first thought/reaction?

I get the hell out of the way. That's the law, as far as I know.

3. Name one thing that could have turned a “good” president (historically speaking - Lincoln, JFK, Clinton, Washington etc) into a bad one, and vice versa. In other words, in case you don’t get the concept, the single event or deed that could have defined their legacy in the exact opposite way it did.

I think our Prime Minister could be decent if he didn't follow "do as I say, not as I do".

4. If you were/are in the market for a new pet, how would you go about it? Shelter? Ad in the paper? Online? Pedigree purchase? Friends?

I'd go to friends first, followed by a shelter.

5. You move to a new town. Driving or walking by a house, you see the word PAEDO daubed in red on the door. What’s your reaction?

Confusion

6. If you buy something relatively cheap, either online or in a shop, and it doesn’t work as it should, do you usually send/bring it back or just shrug and say it was only a few dollars, I couldn’t be bothered?

I'm 50/50 on that one. The situation depends on how much I need/want the item.

Regarding question 3, "Name one thing that could have turned a “good” president (historically speaking - Lincoln, JFK, Clinton, Washington etc) into a bad one, and vice versa.", I'd like to include the following.

Canadians can be very snobby when it comes to our neighbours to the south, like we're somehow way better than they are (we're not). Too many point the finger and pass judgment. I'd rather not. I believe in the saying "if you don't vote, you have no right to complain".

1. Do you bite, clip or cut your fingernails?
I clip them but not often enough

2. If you see someone being pursued by the law (and assuming it’s nothing to do with you) what is your first thought/reaction?
pull out my phone and hope for the best

3. Name one thing that could have turned a “good” president (historically speaking - Lincoln, JFK, Clinton, Washington etc) into a bad one, and vice versa. In other words, in case you don’t get the concept, the single event or deed that could have defined their legacy in the exact opposite way it did.
Well in the case of Washington i would say that if instead of admitting to chopping down the cherry tree he murdered his parents with the axe.

4. If you were/are in the market for a new pet, how would you go about it? Shelter? Ad in the paper? Online? Pedigree purchase? Friends?
Black market.

5. You move to a new town. Driving or walking by a house, you see the word PAEDO daubed in red on the door. What’s your reaction?
I'd be outraged at the British spelling


6. If you buy something relatively cheap, either online or in a shop, and it doesn’t work as it should, do you usually send/bring it back or just shrug and say it was only a few dollars, I couldn’t be bothered?
depends on the product. I guess if it's cheap enough i usually just offset my losses by shoplifting the replacement.
