Um....
Why?

There is something wrong with the monitor then.

The computer should work fine.

Alrighty.

As far as I know she has been barely keeping ahead against Bernie. Weren't the caucus' extremely close?

Yes and no - depends on the demographics.

Sanders biggest problem is his base of young voters that are so loud in online polls and forums and websites. They support Sanders by an overwhelming amount (80+ percent) - the problem is that they are not reliable voters for elections. And when his base does not come out and voter turnout is low, like how it was in Nevada, the whole message of Sanders starting a "political revolution" falls flat on it's ass.

Sanders other issue is with the minority voters - especially blacks, who supported Clinton in Nevada overwhelmingly. And as we go into more diverse states like South Carolina and Texas, Sanders is facing an uphill battle to try and get his message into key communities that, by the looks of it, do not want him.

Yeah, but it still looks like Hillary is doing everything possible.

While Sanders hasn't done as much.

Imagine if Sanders were to go all out.

He is - he outspent Hilary in January in advertisements and such.

It's not like Bernie is just sitting around.

Okay, so him spending more money on ads means he's going all out?

A lot. There's a place in my area that recycles inustrial waste from wood mills. The whole place is run by folks like that, except for the core staff, which are the people responsible for watching over everybody.

In my personal experience, honestly, I like them better than normal people. I know that the staff who work that mill are people with lesser degrees of the disease, and of course, people with higher forms of it are harder to work with. And I mean, anybody with it is hard to work with, I guess.

But they're genuinely nice people. They're actually innocent.

I roll up there and if they see me they wave every time. And they're happy about it. And that's what makes them innocent. It's not that they're dumb. But they're simplistic. They have the full range of human emotions and instincts, but due to the way their head is wired, it's all very..... simple.

There was another fellow I met on one of my appointments in the hospital not too long ago. Could tell he had something. But he loved movies. And he loved talking about movies. And it was something refreshing to me, to see somebody so happy. I mean, this guy, seriously loved movies.

What's sad to me though, is that a lot of them had hard times. The ones at the mill in my area, some of them, had really hard times. They're often mistreated poorly by people. As I've heard some stories told to me by the manager of that mill, who is also a really damn good person.

I make a note to myself. I try to treat those folks with the utmost respect and care when I meet them.

I see you got the good side of them.

Yeah, usually people with autism are sweet and innocent....usually. However mental issues hinder them from ever being capable of acting what could be called "normal". Singling them out and attacking them.

I give my brother a LOT of shit, a LOT. However if anyone else would dare do the same i'd sucker punch them. One of my favorite quotes say this

"Nobody messes with us but us."

You'll see me defending my autistic bro any day.

I have multiple cousins with autism, and I've got to say that they're really unbearable to be around. Sounds mean but it's true.

I also have a cousin who's mentally retarded, but he's the nicest guy in the world.

Do your cousins have temper issues/are way too damn social?

Because my brother is similar. Again like I said he's more controlled but he has a major temper, to the point at growling at everybody, and tends to talj a little bit too much.

That sounds like someone who would truly have autism Verb. As bad as that sounds.

But it's true that absolutely no autistic person is the same as another.

I am honestly curious. A lot of people here throw the words around left and right, however it's unclear if most of you guys have ever had to work with someone who has either.

I'm saying this because I have a brother who has Autism(well controlled autism but still autism), and I have an Aunt who has Down Syndrome. So being around them really has shown me what they go through.

So, have you had any experience with talking to/working with someone who is autistic or has Down Syndrome?

Just beat Elesa on my first attempt, GO TRAPINCH YOU ROCK. (Ground?) Fuck Emolga though, that shit's annoying.

I fixed the nicknames finally. I can't even remember what happens next so it's ll uncharted waters from here on out.

She took me like 6 tries to beat

Trapinch Bulldoze m8

Cant do that when you tanked your way through the game with the water starter. Gen 6 was when i stopped tanking.

I ditched my starter for Psyduck, it's taking a while to make him good

What starter did you get

Oshawatt, I said in the OP

Oh
Fgt, thats the best gen 5 starter

"Serperior"

Excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse me?

The last good Grass starter.

Well

Torterra sucks


But Serperior is my favorite in gen 5.

Probably two very important moves to Arcanine, Flamethrower and Flame Wheel.

The Bush is down, now lets hope to god the Clinton is next. Please.

yeah, it would sure make a lot of sense if the front-running democratic candidate were to just drop out randomly, right in the midst of her dominating campaign where she has no real competition

let's waste our time and energy hoping for that

Domination?

As far as I know she has been barely keeping ahead against Bernie. Weren't the caucus' extremely close?

Seriously every time I look at the news it all looks like Hillary is doing everything possible to keep ahead. While Bernie is doing little but gaining so much.

Then again, I am not someone who keeps track of all of that to be completely honest. I could be wrong on all of this.

Btw. I fucking love Magnemite, Magneton and Magnezone. So fucking good in battles.

Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa Kappa

I am not gonna even try.
