Friday Q&A

Questionable Ascension

Greetings, crickets and trolls. Welcome back to another edition of the Friday Q&A. As always, I hope you had a great week. Unless you disagree with me about photoshop, in which case I hope you had explosive diarrhea while you were stuck in an elevator. Change your pants so we can move on to the questions.

Q: Will the end of the election cycle effect Fark?

A: Only for the better, I'm sure. Election season is probably one of the most annoying times to be a Farker. Our community is seen as a battleground by the opposing sides, and virtually the same gaggle of morons can be found trolling every political discussion to death. Shameful, really. They could be expressing their skewed views through the time-honored tradition of a poorly written Blogspot page.

Q: What about the political theme contests?

A: I doubt we've seen the last of those. Along with the standard astro-turf comments and partisan headlines, this election cycle also saw a sharp rise in the submission of politically themed photoshop contests. While the entries in each were hilarious, that same aforementioned gaggle of morons would inevitably arrive to ruin the thread with their vitriolic discussions. At this point, I'm sure the mods/admins are more burned out with politics than we are. Maybe now the PSers can get back to envisioning what it would be like if various groups ruled the world.

Q: Who did you vote for?

A: Honestly, that's none of your business. I've done my best over these past few months not to let my bile-drenched political opinions interfere with my bile-drenched views on photoshop. There's enough hatred to go around here at the Clinic without bringing political affiliations into the mix. However, with the elections at an end, I suppose it would be okay to share my choice. With regards to voting, I wrote in my name on the ballot like I always do.

That's all for this time, gentle reader. As always, thanks for stopping by. Allow me to apologize for this brief foray into the political sphere. Throughout this election, I've been disgusted with the lack of decency shown by followers from both sides. It seems that the Internet, which was intended to spread knowledge, is all too often a breeding ground for ignorance. That's why I'm determined to spread my version of the truth. I'm sure the world is anxious to hear my views.

Stay tuned for more flawed logic from the Doctor!
