I will need to find a place to celebrate if somehow Bernie does win. [View all]

I wont do it on DU, way too many people I cant stand to be associated with will be celebrating, gloating, etc.

I will celebrate with my friends off the internet and that will be enough.

I find threads here that celebrate something about Bernie but I refuse to respond to the poster, as it often is someone who has shown complete disrespect for my friends here in AfAm.

It really is an unusual situation to be in.
