Speaker 1 (00:00):
This's Ober in the den with dangerous day. So here's
a question for you. What's the smallest hill you're willing
to die on? In other words, it might be a
silly debate, but you're not willing to give any ground
on your opinion. Well, the Internet provided some random answers
to this. Some of the highlights include Nickelback is a
great band, Aliyah's number one over Beyonce, Grease Too will

(00:23):
always be better than Greece. If you sit outside eating
and drinking, you can't complain when an insect lands in
your food. You don't have to forgive anybody you don't
want to. Texting should be used for short, one sentence messages,
not for elaborate conversations. It's caramel not caramel, depending upon
what region you'll live. And I suppose dogs belong on

(00:43):
furniture and in beds. We owe them the comfort condiments
are gross. People who correct grammar on the Internet are
often more annoying than those who make the mistakes. Don't
use your speakers in public transit headphones only. No one
should ever blow their nose in public. Go to the
bathroom or somewhere out of earshot. Stop signs should be
replaced by healed signs. Read the privacy policy on everything,

(01:07):
protect yourself and Pumpkin carving is when you cut shapes
out of the pumpkin. Pumpkin sculpting is when you remove
the skin and scrape three D shapes into the pulp.
They're not the same thing. Here's a small hell I
I'm willing to die on. Why don't you get a
life deeper in? The two election day less than three

NonStop political ads and mailers and spam calls and texts
and signs and news reports were fun to going to
die down, but not everybody. Some people are actually having
too much fun with this election. They said they're status
coming to an end. A poll of three thousand Americans
that are you generally enjoying the presidential election or do
you wish it was over? Sixty seven percent said they

(01:47):
wish it was over, twelve percent not sure, and twenty
one percent said they're enjoying it and wish it would continue.
The demographic that's enjoying it the most young African American
men living in the northeast of the US, who are
both Democrats and Republicans demographic that's hating it the most
female boomers. In the Midwest, Forty three percent of people
said they've heard too much about the election, thirty three

(02:09):
percent said they've heard enough, and ten percent claim they
don't have enough discussion going on about the election. Most
at least politically engaged states most engaged Maryland, Virginia, New Jersey, Oregon,
and Washington State. Least engaged Arkansas, Alabama, West Virginia, Oklahoma,
and Indiana. And despite all the attention of the hyped
swing states, they're pretty much in the middle caring about

(02:32):
the election. Wisconsin's seventeenth most engaged, Pennsylvania twentieth, Michigan twenty six,
Nevada twenty seventh, Georgia thirty third, and North Carolina fortieth.
