Today was the annual State of the Union. And it.was.long. I'm pretty sure Joe Biden stopped listening about 30 minutes in.
I opted to not take a photo of Obama speaking, because....well.....he annoys me. Instead, I took a photo of CNN's poll from--wait for it--Twitter posts about the State of the Union. OK, I'm all for a social media...but to a point. I mean, is it really CNN-worthy to broadcast what random people think about the State of the Union....in 140 characters or less, of course.
I've decided that there should be a drinking game for Obama's speeches:
* Take a shot every time Nancy Pelosi randomly jumps out of her chair, clapping.
* Take a shot every time Joe Biden scratches his armpit (what was with that?!).
* Take a shot every time Obama pauses awkwardly--because he thought everyone was going to applaud, but they don't--before continuing on.
* Take a shot every time he talks about the economy he "inherited", "took over", or "that came in the eight years before him". (Wait--don't--you seriously might die.)
Oh, and regardless of my personal opinions regarding Obama's policies--I gotta give the guy credit for his public speaking skills.....
