    There was no politics in the request to refrain from politics.
    #VoteBlue is a hashtag, nothing more, nothing less.

    Moving from politics to being a sysop...

    So, just to be clear... as a sysop you have absolutely no control over what appears in your origin line?

    Interesting.

    Is that so?

    I have absolute control over what appears in my origin line. Why do you ask?

    In any case #VoteBlue is just a hashtag. It is not an attack on you (or anyone) so don't feel victimized.

    Interesting.

    Completely uninteresting.

    So, on that note, anyone make any interesting resolutions for the new year? I generally don't, but, "I'll draw something every day for a month" or something would be a neat resolution.

    I tend to not make resolutions. If you want to start doing something new or different, I think you can do so at any time (and you don't have to wait until a new year).

    What if there are people out there who don't vote? It might insult, and possibly trigger, them for telling them how to live their lives!

    There was no discussion around voting at all so no one told anyone to vote, not to vote, how to vote or how to live their lives.

    That does seem healthy.

    And, when I do things like this, it tends to be, "I'm going to try this system", or some other thing that gets me going on trying to get something done on a near-daily basis toward some goal.

    Would you feel the same way if somebody used "John 3:16" in their origin line. It doesn't sound very different to me.

    "Amy Pond, there's something you better understand about me 'cause it's
    important, and one day your life may depend upon it. I am definitely a Mad
    Man with a Blue Box."
