Today is the launch of the new edition of D&D…so; I’m going to talk about politics. Psych.

On game night yesterday we were talking politics and Ray once again brought up the South Park episode that skewers the American political system. In it the school must vote for a new mascot, either a giant douche or a turd sandwich. It’s pretty funny watching the debate between the two mascots and of course the point is that often the choice between democrats and republicans is no choice at all.

I opined that the analogy wasn’t quite right. For me it was more like a sea urchin roll (the Democrats) vs. a turd sandwich (the Republicans). I can recognize the sea urchin as food, but I’d only choke it down if I had nothing else to eat. The turd sandwich I would not eat under any circumstances.
