Poll question: Official "I PROUDLY SLEPT THROUGH SHRUB'S SOTU ADDRESS!!!" Thread
I just woke up less than an hour ago. I completely forgot that Shrub was speaking tonight. I'm so proud of my sleepy bones!

Anyone else?

1. I watched some Tivo'd news shows instead of the "event"
then I watched Keith in the post-game show talking with Obama and Biden. Biden gave me a summary that was all I needed to know. :)

9. Yeah, we've got a Chimp that isn't even house broken. He's been soiling the White House
for 7 years!

3. We turned the sound down and said rude things :)
To quote another vastly superior man named George.

4. I had it on, but I was paying very little attention.
Looked up a few times. I care less about what he says these days now that he's a lame duck with a dem majority and can't accomplish anything anyway.

6. I wouldn't watch that dick
OR listen to his tongue wag for even a second if it meant I had to move to Albania and apply for citizenship.

I never knew I could loathe somebody so much.

7. um, I worked
listened a bit, threw up in my mouth a couple of times...How many taxpayers do the tax cuts effect again?
And the cheers, christ, I thought the lions had gotten another one...all in all a sickening display.

13. We watched it and shouted stuff at the lying SOS
Thankfully it's his (allegedly) last one.

17. I loved it.
I loved knowing I wouldn't have to suffer through another one. The man is a fool and a failure. His perceptions of reality are akin to those of a person on acid.

18. Don't impugn people "on acid" that way.
Bush is more like a heroine addict.

20. I don't know that obsessing over Wonder Woman or Red Sonja makes you speak like a spacer.
He doesn't dip out enough to be on heroin. I think he's more of an up the ladder guy. Booze followed by cocaine.

I'm not impugning people on acid, I loved acid. But I also recorded a lot of our trips and invariably people would be proclaiming things as ludicrous as the things Chimparoo states on a regular basis.

19. I fell asleep counting the words terra at the end
when I started to play a game in my head as to how many words he can make sound like terra...that started when he said "territory" and I SWEAR he meant it like it was dangerous

thinking of the possibilities...terrapin, pterodactyl, terduckin, turpentine, terpitude.....

I was particularly amused when Charlie Rangel laughed out loud when Bush butchered the word nuclear AGAIN...the camera flashover was priceless.

22. I can't listen to him say more than a few sentences
at any one time because my head begins to hurt.

28. We won't let our 3-year old anywhere near a TV showing Shrub's face.
We don't want to traumatize him for life.

25. I turned off the teevee right before the speech started
I can't stand the sight or sound of *. Instead, I logged onto DU, and got the play-by-play coverage here.

26. I've never watched one of his SOTU puke-fests
It has gotten to the point that I truly want to throw up when he appears on the TV. If he appears on screen now I immediately put on the close captioning so I don't have to listen to him.

The mere sight of him and his fake southern accent are like nails on a chalk board. :grr:

27. Wow. Over 1 in 5 DUers actually slept through it!
Edited on Tue Jan-29-08 01:46 PM by Seabiscuit
And only 1 in 5 actually watched it.

If it doesn't make you sick to your stomach, or violent, it puts you to sleep.
