Yeah, it’s not a football game. It’s “It could go either way” until it goes one way and stays there. That’s when it matters.
That sounds kind of like a football game…
I’m watching it all on AP and BBC.
Two possible scenarios:
-
OP’s autocorrect wrote “returns” when they meant for the post to say “results”, in reference to the U.S. election
-
OP knows that the rapture is happening tomorrow when the pious souls will return to Heaven
Even if the rapture happens tomorrow, nothing changes.
“God” - “I started the rapture, why aren’t there more people up here?”
St peter- “there weren’t any believers that were qualified”
Take them anyway, I really don’t want to be stuck with a bunch of rapture reject crybabies. Burn me in hell forever, see if I give a shit, but don’t make me listen to them whine about it.
Don’t worry, the first scenario also could produce hell on earth for the rest of eternity as well
Sounds like an improvement.
There’s a difference between poll returns and election results. Returns are “as they happen” and get updated. Results are final.
Thanks. I realized after the comment that the term has gone out of fashion
Weird. Let’s bring it back!

Oops. Thanks
It’s kind of an obsolete vernacular
You’re not wrong though. Poll returns are what you get gradually until all votes are reported. Results are the final results of the election.
Jumping Jesus on a pogo stick!
I have vague plans to goon for 16 hours
Same thing we do every night pinky.
Try to goonover the world
CBC/BBC/Al Jazeera, checking the Economist for my minute by minute bellweather county level fun.
The republicans we know said today to expect trouble and to gas up and get groceries and just hunker down for a while. Which is not at all ominous.
I won’t be watching. I’m going out to my shop at 8. No internet out there. And probably not emerging until dead of night or early morning. Then, like a lot of other women, I’ll check on my status as a person going forward.
My other half is taking Benadryl and forcing himself to go to bed. He’s given strict instructions not to wake him, even if it’s good news, with a clear Kamala win. (Yea, trouble later, but it’ll still tell us what We The People decided up front, and that means a lot.)
Here’s hoping you’re still a human being tomorrow night. Cheers.
I think I’ll hide in bed until it’s over.
Unfortunately for my sanity over here in UTC+9, I can’t just sleep through the whole thing. I’m hopeful that work will be busy enough tomorrow that I won’t have time to think about it. What I also know is that it’s most likely going to get drawn out longer, so I won’t likely be specifically watching anywhere, but just picking up occasional US news somewhat accidentally along the way (either here or via fark). I voted as soon as I could print my overseas ballot and get it in the mail so I’ve done all I can do.
No weed injection ¿
There’s a divey bar 10m away where people have been watching results the last few years. Might head down there. Pretty sure it’ll be packed.
Alternative is to crawl into bed and wait till January.
Edit: we have a lot of local races (Mayor, City Council, propositions) on the line. Might hit the bar just to watch those and just ignore the national stuff.
why would I watch
I’m actively trying to avoid it, but even in The Netherlands it’s hard to avoid the talk of the town.
I’ll be making sure my thermal scope has fresh batteries and my fastest car has gas to GTFO of my state if need be. Thankfully I live in a city that rednecks think is some kind of blue Baghdad so I’m likely fairly safe.
probably watch it on PBS Detroit and will be checking out the Daily Show live episode whenever it comes out on youtube.
