2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumWas there a timer on the debate tonight.
Clinton talked over and around Bernie continuously. He would stop for a breath and she would take the floor. She didn't need a minute to think as she popped the lid off canned response after response. She had to have been 20 minutes up on him at the end. Disgusting.

(43,890 posts)7. Not so much canned. More fermented, like fine kiviaq.
I would say that with tongue firmly in cheek, but that's hard to do after talking about kiviaq.

"In August 2013 several people died in Siorapaluk from eating kiviak that was made from eider rather than auk. Eider does not ferment as well as auk, and gave those that ate it botulism.[3]"
