Me: Polls are dumb.

Some of you: FFS, Laffy, what’s wrong with you? Polls are dumb!

Me: grabs nearest alcoholic beverage at 7 am, throws hands in air, mumbles obscenities

Alcohol and obscenities? Now that's a side of Laffy that one doesn't often see.

I feel like a poll and a pollster need to be a core part of a future short story that involves spinning blades and a lot of bone chips

@GottaLaff Another thing is people treating the NYT as a reliable source, despite its long history as a source of thoroughly fabricated but extended and very intricate stories.

@chemoelectric@masto.ai avatar

@GottaLaff BTW after days of seeing reports of Biden firing up rally crowds, I saw a headline claiming "Biden avoiding public eye while Democrats worry".

GottaLaff OP ,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@chemoelectric What they meant was, he should have been all over TV fighting back, not just a rally or two.

chemoelectric ,
@chemoelectric@masto.ai avatar

@GottaLaff The last time I tuned into XumoPlay, he had the channel saturated with ads. I've seen his ads elsewhere as well.

I don't know what else he can do if the media choose to ignore him and then claim he has no public presence. Which we should be used to by now.

I haven't seen a single Trump ad. Trump has no public presence except at his dumb rallies.

chemoelectric ,
@chemoelectric@masto.ai avatar

@GottaLaff I don't watch ANY of the cable channels, just streaming, so I don't know the advertising there.

GottaLaff OP ,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@chemoelectric I'm not referring to ads. HE should be on TV, they're saying. On TV shows, one after the other.

chemoelectric ,
@chemoelectric@masto.ai avatar

@GottaLaff He is the president. Trump cannot be allowed to dictate his schedule. That would be the story, then, that Trump leads Biden by the nose. Because it would be TRUE!

GottaLaff OP ,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@chemoelectric ? Not sure what you're referring to. Why would Trump be dictating his schedule?

chemoelectric ,
@chemoelectric@masto.ai avatar

@GottaLaff He would be reacting to his debate with Trump rather than following his plans, even though it is early and all that happened is he had a weak performance, probably mainly due to a cold, and Trump told a lot of lies that many people feel should be repeated, er, debunked.

GottaLaff OP ,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@chemoelectric No, he'd go after Trump.

chemoelectric ,
@chemoelectric@masto.ai avatar

@GottaLaff Going negative early is known to turn people off. So very risky. Biden ads are very positive so far.

@Beachbum No. I'm waiting til we move to our permanent address on July 28, then contacting DemsAbroad to do that.

@zalasur I don’t drink much at all. I use it as a comedy device.

@GottaLaff Alcoholic beverages for breakfast? Laffy, no! Those are for the evening. Breakfast is for alcoholic danish, with afternoon tea reserved for alcoholic pastry.
