Perpetually pissed off about politics. They may not be able to unclog a toilet but politics is the subject they know best. Most people might know their local representatives but the political junkie knows every Congressman and Senator in all 50 states and their respective scandals. It's hard to keep up to speed with them. "What do you think of Mr. Pepperidge's nomination to be Assistant Secretary of the sub-Interior?" Who? My late aunt God rest her soul passed away a few years back from a cancer. Politically conservative they say she argued politics with her liberal son-in-law right up 'til the end. Dunno. I'd be pondering my mortality.
When I came back from my 3 year blogging hiatus I had to google Tulsi Gabbard. I'm always a little behind the curve and a day or two late on today's news. Gotta take care of the feral cats. Half of my YouTube search history is about health problems. Rearranging my finances. Puttering around the house. I'm busy.
What's up with the political junkies? Like a bunch of angry nerds.
