Local Voter Willing To Chance Nuclear Apocalypse To Prevent Clinton Presidency

Election day is quickly approaching and many of us have already made our decisions fairly easily. Local voter Brandon Coulson has no doubt in his mind that he is making the right decision..

Coulson told The Freudian Slip that he would do anything to prevent a Hillary Clinton presidency, even chance a nuclear apocalypse. He expressed that many people told him that Republican nominee Donald Trump would be a beyond disastrous candidate for the United States,. Still, Coulson simply refuses to vote for Democratic nominee Clinton due to his general dislike toward her. Coulson told The Freudian Slip, “Yeah, I don’t really trust Trump with nukes, but Hillary is… Hillary!”

Coulson initially supported Bernie Sanders for president. However, with Sanders out of the running, Coulson says that he will support either Gary Johnson - despite Johnson’s opposition to any minimum wage- or Jill Stein - despite Stein’s belief that Wi-Fi is detrimental to children’s health. Coulson asserted, “I bet Hillary feels the same way, ‘cause she’s, you know, Hillary! Besides, emails! And do you not remember Benghazi?”

The Freudian Slip asked Coulson whether he agreed with Clinton’s stance on LGBTQ rights, Planned Parenthood, and health care, to which he replied, “I guess, but none of that really applies to me anyway.” Coulson added, “Besides, a nuclear apocalypse might not be that bad. That movie Mad Max: Fury Road was awesome.” The Freudian Slip pointed out to Coulson that Mad Max was fiction, and that Trump’s apocalypse would likely be much less feminist.

Hipster Quote of the Week:

The message at the end of “The Tortoise and the Hare” isn’t that ‘slow and steady wins the race’, but actually a well-remembered quote from the 1977 Disney classic “A New Hope”: “Great kid! Don’t get cocky”. Bullshit that the hare was gonna lose that race if he didn’t choose to stop for a nap and a snack and whatever else he did. Bullshit that the tortoise was going to catch up in any capacity if the hare didn’t slow down for him. Maybe that platitude makes sense, but definitely not in this situation.

 

A race is a sheer contest of speed. No other skills go into that. The tortoise and the hare aren’t making miniature wooden horses and getting judged on the craftsmanship of their products alongside their finish time; they are moving from one point to another. In no universe does slow and steady win that race. Slow and steady wins no races, except for races where the point is to go as slow as possible. Even in cases where slow and steady could be considered a possible alternative to fast, such as the aforementioned miniature-wooden-horse-making competition, someone who can do similar quality work at a much faster pace still wins that competition.

 

Slow and steady does not win the race. Not being too full of yourself does.."
