Why am I smiling at a divorce song? I'm supposed to be sad!

Ben Lerman ROCKS! I love him about as much as a straight man can love a gay man without it being weird. Seriously, this isn't weird is it?

Fuck. For a guy fighting for gay marriage, Ben Lerman makes divorce sound like fun.

Keith, your polls are not hard, you're just misinterpreting the results: people are idiots. I tried to tell you but you called me an idiot. "Exactly!" I said. Then it turned into some sort of Abbot and Costello routine and I threw a something heavy at my head.

The problem with the polls isn't that they're so hard, it's that nine out of every ten KATG listeners are ADD and can't pay attention long enough to hear the whole point. They also love to disagree for attention so they pick out one sentence of a point Keith or Chemda is making and they choose to interpret it out of context just so they can build a strawman to beat down and show off their superior debating "skills".

This combination in listeners of being both ADD and contrary motherfuckers gives the polls (including this one) a 117% margin of error. I'm no statisticologist but that seems on the high side.

These polls are so easy, I voted yes. Did I do it right?

Of course these polls are hard. These polls are science. Science is hard. So these polls are hard.

On asking a girl, "why not?". That is exactly the reason why not.
