Well, my bank has failed, and everyone’s talking and blogging and twittering about economics and politics, two topics I’m terribly passionate (read: opinionated) about. In an effort to not get run out of town, I’m going to stick to this as my commentary for now, and try very hard to keep my mouth shut otherwise:
Why keep my mouth shut? My opinions aren’t going to change yours, and this time of year, some (thankfully, some, not all) people start hating people who don’t think like them. I like my friends, and would like them to continue liking me. I know I’m not going to change your vote, so how about we just agree to disagree and go back to talking about Star Wars and web startups like we used to? I guess I’m just also a little exhausted from political mud-slinging drama, and fairly bummed (dare I say depressed? *Ba-dum-ching!*) about the bailout. Can’t we just be friends?
