    I couldn't sit through the whole thing.   :facepalm   You may be right and in any event, you're certainly entitled to your opinion.  I just found myself taking deep breaths for her because she didn't seem to be doing it for herself.  I think she should slow down, think and quit speaking like the legal disclaimer at the end of an outrageous radio commercial.    Stream of consciousness narratives can be entertaining and effective ( God knows, Robin Williams made an entire career out of them ) but hers had me looking for the dump button after about two minutes.   :hmm

    Based off of that video alone, yes I enjoyed what I saw. I clicked on her channel and saw some Hillary Clinton videos, so I quickly and quietly excused myself to the youtube home page. Strange, I didn't even notice that she was talking extremely fast and without break. Interesting indeed  :hmm.

    I never heard of Boxy until you mentioned her, but after looking at some images on Google, the two resemble each other don't they? Like... A lot. Idk, they could easily be the same person based off of looks alone.

    Agreed. They are big, strong, and word on the street is that they taste like steak. As a Texan, I support beef tasting animals  :cool.

    Why not? They're crass, loud-mouthed, trigger-happy, and take no crap from anyone. Seems appropriate.

    Oh, wow! Thanks coelacanth! I'm definitely going to have to save this to my bookmarks and drool over them. Great find  :thumbup2.

    Banjo Patterson, aye? I remember him from a history lesson a while back. IIRC, the man was a very good poet that left behind quite the mystery when he died (involving his love life, I believe).

    What if the purge was real?

    Actually reminds me of when some hooligans were trying to have "art imitate life" a few years ago from the movie. I posted a thread about it. I found it unsettling then and still do now, just think, there was actually a group of people who thought reenacting the purge movie would be a good idea. Truly disgusting.
