BRB, Politics, and You

Back in 2008, the last time we elected a President here in the United States, there were only a few no-do-gooders, ne'er do wells, ragamuffins, all-around punks, and handsome, studly men hanging around your beloved Battle Red Blog. Even back then, there was a no politics rule around these here parts (and one severely enforced at DGDB&D, whatever that allegedly was). There's a reason for this: here on BRB, we are football fans, mostly Texans' fans!, and this is the tie that binds. After the jump, a few thoughts about politics from yours truly.
As we move closer to November, the BRB Staff has one simple request of you: please leave all politics off BRB. This includes, but is not limited to, comments, signature lines, and avatars. There are plenty of sites around the Internet to discuss politics, and this is simply not one of them.
We ask that you comply with these simple wishes. If your signature line or avatar already contains something political, please change it. If you make a politically charged comment, it will be deleted and there will be a single warning.
There are all kinds 'round these parts, but we are football fans first and foremost. Thank you for understanding.

Two days ago my wife texted me a capital V
When I responded with a “?”, I got back “suck it, Trebek”.
Turned out she had been texting Vs to people all day and I was the first one to notice (and probably one of the few that would have gotten it anyway)

Typo for the missed "r"
Too lazy for the umlaut.
Either way, we should probably just gestapo this whole thing.

Yeah, I was going to just correct the r,
but as long as I was at it, I figured I might as well go whole hog and correct the umlaut as well.

Does foreign affairs count as politics?
Oh wait, no one gives a shit about foreign affairs.
Lol.
Never use a metaphor, simile, or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print.
Never use a long word where a short one will do.
If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out.
Never use the passive where you can use the active.
Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word, or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent.
Break any of these rules sooner than say anything outright barbarous.

What's even funnier is that he couldn't even get the serious part right
The first part of the word ‘politics’ comes from the Greek word ‘polis’ which means city. The Greek word for ‘many’ is transliterated as ‘poly.’
