God, this hearing is so boring

Just filibuster his ass and get it over with.

1. Yes, excruciating! n/t

2. They're totally scripted

Your time is better spent waiting to catch the recap on The News Hour or Countdown. Having been present - in a variety of roles - at things like this, I'd really rather do root canal on myself, without Novocaine, while driving on glare ice, blindfolded, at the same time being hit with a TASER every sixty seconds and experiencing explosive diarrhea.

Go do something else:

Terrorize some rightwingnuts.

Watch paint dry.

Count the hairs on someone's head.

Remove your own spleen with a serving fork.

Anything but actually watching these hideous rites of passage.

He's going to be confirmed, by the way. That's my call, and now I must go get my root canal tools...

3. God can't help you now. You are being tortured by our president.
