It is, indeed a game. I'm just sick and tired of being portrayed as some sociopathic degenerate by people who make lying, slander and obfuscation not only a lifestyle, but a friggin art form.
One of my nearest and dearest friends is a lib. Bless her. She's been my friend for years, and sometimes I wonder if she is just my friend now, because we have been friends for so long, it's habit. Met her for drinks to celebrate her birthday this week. A rant ensued regarding insurance. I work with insurance all day friggin long. I said a few things, and the next thing I know I am being told about how HCR is a good thing. (This from an attorney, that hasn't worked a day in her life after she got married and lived in Europe for 10 years with her husband, a mainframe programmer.) OMG. I gave up, and diverted conversation by telling her how I spent my weekend driving out to the country, to visit Ammo Depot to get bulk ammo. Which, btw, was totally true. It's a lot cheaper than Walmart. And on the way I got to drop into the Beef Jerky Outlet.
I think she thought I made it up for shock value. Till I gave her some kangaroo jerky for her bday present.
