For that very reason, I sometimes imagine a world where public office is handled like jury duty, picked semi-randomly.

"Donald Trump is a scab."

Trump would be a scab, but he's never worked a day in his life.

Should Jon Stewart run for POTUS? No.

Would I vote for Jon Stewart if he ran for POTUS? Probably.

This says less about my faith in Jon's ability to govern, and more about my lack of faith in current politicians to lead ethically.

I'd rather see Jon make the right decisions but make mistakes, than to see a seasoned politician make the wrong decisions and execute them competently.

I at least have faith Jon is smart enough and with a true compassion in his heart, that he'd be able to surround himself with real experts, listen open mindedly to their advice, and regularly make decisions with empathy.

All that said, he's said repeatedly he doesn't want that job, and I do not blame him.

You know too much, Trent Miller. Would be a shame if people knew you lived at 221b Evergreen Terrace, Castle Rock Maine.

Didn't return your grocery cart? Straight to jail.

A regular sci-fi gun sommelier.

I want to toss the Type-2 phaser from Star Trek (circa 24th century) as my personal favorite. It has this design which reads as a tool more than a weapon, which I love.

If the big bang had never occurred, queer.af would never have died.

Ergo: big bang killed queer.af.

They almost certainly picked it just for the joke.

queer.af = Queer AF = Queer as fuck!

It's like how popular the TLD of Guernsey (.gg) is with gaming websites.

I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't even realize what country code the TLD was when they registered it.
