I think Diebold hacked the servers.

I demand a recount. And a sandwich. With mayo.

1. I was on the verge of posting the same thing.
Not quite dial-up slow, but damned close.

4. Sandwich coming up
whole wheat or rye? Sprouts, feta cheese, hummus?

No, the board is quite speedy for me, which is good. My job (answering phones) is boring today--only about 5 calls in 6 hours.

7. I cannot vote for you...
you use coded language that is a dog whistle for those who discriminate against non-egg based condiments.

13. Dammit, I have a cold and was up all night debating the returns.
I know my brilliant wit is off today, but can't a girl get a break just once?


















Wait--DU is slow, not DUers. Never mind.

26. DU never used to be slow like this...
I mean, back in the day, it was always lightning fast.

And everyone played nice.

And nobody was mean.

DU was super fast lollipops and gumdrops, back in the day.
