There are a lot of entertaining things about election day. Here's a list.It's election day. Did you vote?
1. All the people wearing their "I Voted" stickers. Sometimes people come into work with their sticker and then you can tell that they voted before they got to work. Sometimes people come into work with their sticker in the middle of the day and then you can tell that they voted on their lunch break. Sometimes people don't have a sticker and then when you ask them if they voted, they say "Oh, I'm voting on the way home."
2. The status updates on facebook and twitter. Everyone's voting. Everyone's talking about voting. People have vote updates and vote tweets. Everyone's asking "Did you vote yet?" Its very entertaining.
3. People at the polling place. It's fun because sometimes people are lined up to register to vote and you can tell they are pretty young. Maybe even eighteen. Maybe its their first time voting. That's pretty cool. Also there are people in your neighborhood that you run into and you're like "oh HI! Funny seeing you here!" and then you laugh loudly because obviously its not that weird to see your neighbors there since its your polling place! You can make other jokes here like "What are YOU doing here?" or "Wow, pretty busy here today!" and then laugh "Ha ha ha ha ha."
4. The election coverage. This is entertaining and also funny because its kind of like sports coverage. Everyone flashes all the numbers on the screen and talks about what might happen and how things might turn out. Like football. The announcer guys all talk before the game about what might happen and then during the game about what is currently happening and what might happen next and then after its over, what happened. That's how election coverage is. Except WAY more stressful because it means a zillion percent more than football. Sorry football fans.
Yeah, election day. It's a pretty exciting event. I've been entertained since I woke up this morning. I'm going to sign off now and watch msnbc.
