At least try and cut out the "inevitability" meme. nt antigop Mar 2013 #136

Nope, that's my belief. if that bothers you, you better find a way to deal. nt stevenleser Mar 2013 #140

You"ll just have to deal with my adding to the "inevitability" meme counter when I see it. nt antigop Mar 2013 #141

And you will have to deal with me pointing how freeperesque it is to tell the same joke 1000 times. stevenleser Mar 2013 #148

It's not a joke. nt antigop Mar 2013 #149

and I'll add to the counter every time someone tries to spread the "inevitability" meme. nt antigop Mar 2013 #137

See, that's a little better. nt stevenleser Mar 2013 #139

Why does it bother you so much when I call out the "inevitability" meme? Hmmmm????? nt antigop Mar 2013 #143

I already told you, the 1000th time, its not funny anymore. nt stevenleser Mar 2013 #147

It's not intended to be funny, but it really seems to bother you when I point it out. nt antigop Mar 2013 #150

She wanted the last one, too. Enough to try to scam it with superdelegates. We stopped her. Poll_Blind Mar 2013 #142
