Anyone else NOT going to watch the SOTU?

[KitchenWitch]

I need to protect my sanity, therefore, I cannot watch it. I will get summaries from the blogosphere.

[DainBramaged]

1. I refuse to waste the electricity or burn my ears with his voice

[ScreamingMeemie]

2. Nope, I'm going to play games with my kids. It's really weird to not have

a president, isn't it? :hi:

[Clintmax]

3. I'm not either.

I'll be at work, thank you very much. I'll hear all about it here on DU, I'm sure.

[billyskank]

4. I haven't got a telly!

So I guess not! :D :hi:

[KitchenWitch]

42. Do they broadcast it in the UK, in its entirety?

:hi:

[MANative]

5. I'd rather eat glass than listen for more than

one second to the talking chimp. GRRRRR!

[hobo_baggins]

6. Why bother? he hasn't said anything new in about 3 years.

his brain is stuck on repeat

[cleofus1]

7. i just bought

the first two discs of "atomic betty"...so i'll probably pass...i just love that intro song!

[DanCa]

8. I am not.

Ever since that man said that fetus' are more important than disabled people I cant control my rage when I see the monkey man.

[kwassa]

9. I can't even watch the Democratic SOTUs ...

Long political speeches cause my eyes to glaze over, and bring about a gag reflex.

I won't even read the summaries. It is all a bullsh*t festival.

[EstimatedProphet]

10. Nope, not gonna do it

the Prophetess is showing Kinsey on campus tonight. I'm going there instead.

[AirmensMom]

11. I'm already sick ...

listening to him would hamper my recovery. I can't stand the sight or sound (or thought) of him. :puke:

[tyedyeto]

12. No!

I got enough of the Chimp last week when I watched the press conference. I can't bring myself to watch him 2 weeks in a row.

[bigwillq]

13. I'm working tonight

and when 9 p.m. strolls around, the phones get very busy. I probably won't be able to watch it.

[tjwmason]

14. Coverage here starts 1:55 a.m.

I think I'll take a pass on that - I do desperately need some beauty sleep.

[swimboy]

22. I can't blame you in the least.

Work's been a screaming ride for two weeks. AAAgghhh!

By all means--stay beautiful! :loveya:

[MissMillie]

15. Why bother watching?

You can't believe a word he says anyway.

[no name no slogan]

16. I never do watch 'em

even when Dems have been president. All it is is a glorified campaign speech. If I want to know what's in it, I'll read the transcript the next day. That way I can skip the propaganda and find out how we'll get screwed over for the next year.

[Strong Atheist]

17. I am not watching it. It is my first time to use this smilie:

:puke:

[wildhorses]

18. I will be at work...

don't know which is worse... sorry, but work has been really rough for about 6 months now...

[Love Bug]

19. I'll be too busy cleaning the litter boxes!

[AlCzervik]

20. not watching this time, i'll be reading or washing my hair or maybe

cleaning the lint trap of the clothes dyer.

[swimboy]

21. I simply could not bear to watch it.

I do not like hearing his voice or seeing his face. And I don't enjoy being lied to.

[Akoto]

23. Nope. Can't stand to hear him talk.

It's not the content of his speeches that bothers me (those it's also nauseating). It's the way he talks.

The stuttering, the extended 'uhhs' and 'umms', the entire rehearsed lack of genuine feeling. There's this aura about him that just says he's only there because he's forced to be, not because he has an obligation to the people. I can't stand to hear the man talk.

[swag]

24. No way am I going to sit through that fucking shit.

[Ally McLesbian]

25. Agreed

As long as he keeps worshipping the terrorist God that tells him to kill all nonbelievers, and he tells me I have no right to ever get married, I will NEVER watch the "SOTU."

I make it official: I have ZERO tolerance for Christianity now. Any religion that REFUSES to coexist with people who differ (in fact, one that tries to steamroll them over instead) does NOT deserve my respect.

[Wapsie B]

26. I can't watch it.

I never could watch * speak. It's just painful to listen. At least when Ronnie was lying through his teeth he sounded like everyone's favorite grandpa.

[NewJeffCT]

27. no way - I still have to catch up with my BSG

That's Battlestar Galactica. I was in Florida two Fridays ago and forgot to set my DVR and then last week, my wife accidentally overlaid my recording with some Chinese New Year show...

Easy call, cringe when Bush is talking or "suffer" through 2 hours of nail biting suspense?

[GalleryGod]

28. Goin' to the Bada-Bing,instead.

Actually we have two DVD's warmed-up and ready to go...that'll take us right up to DreamlandO8)

[flamingyouth]

29. I get the summary right here.

I can't stand to hear or look at that man.

[Brewman_Jax]

30. Not me!

I'll be playing team trivia and watching college basketball. Hopefully my team will end their losing streak tonight.

[Xenotime]

31. STOU = CRAP

[WilmywoodNCparalegal]

32. nahh! I'll be watching a Law & Order rerun...

much more entertaining. I will then read the coverage of the SOTU here on DU to get the real scoop.

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

33. Nope, went to the local video store this AM and got

Cinderella Man, The Constant Gardner and Crash.

I refuse to listen to him anymore, all he does is make my BP go up and that is definitely not healthy.

[jane_pippin]

34. lol. I think I'm the only one on DU who wants to see it

But I can't because I have to be at work.

I guess I just like a good train wreck. :shrug:

[huskerlaw]

35. I have to work tonight

but if I wasn't working, I'd be at the Hollywood protest.

No way in hell I'm watching that asshole.

[KamaAina]

36. One of the good things about Hawai'i...

is that King Dumbass**' "prime time" appearances start at 3 PM out here, while I'm still safely ensconced in the cubicle.

[Shine]

37. I'm with ya. gf.

yuckola. I'm so done. :thumbsdown:

[LeftyMom]

38. Not me

I planned ahead and made sure I had DVDs to watch. * gives me a headache and the intense desire to break stuff whenever I hear him try to mimic human speech.

[RevolutionaryActs]

39. I avoid watching the chimp talk at all costs.

:banghead:

[Rabbit of Caerbannog]

40. I'm curious to watch the

Democratic response from our new Governor (Kaine) to see how he presents himself.

[Missy Vixen]

41. Me me me me meeeeee!

I'll be watching "Mr. Smith Goes To Washington".

Julie

[Scout]

43. can't stand to watch buttface, even with the sound turned off.

I get the text tomorrow and read it, and find out from DU what the scoop is!

[Orsino]

44. It's not as though I'm running short of * lies, and need more.

Had quite enough, thank you.

[Digit]

45. Here is a preview....

Blink, blink, blink, blink, blink, the economy is doing GREAT, blink, blink, blink, blink...

Blink, blink, blink, blink, blink, we are making progress, blink, blink, blink, blink...

No, I won't be watching....my blood pressure can't take it.

[mvd]

46. I'll keep up to date at DU

:hi:

[KitchenWitch]

47. Thank the gods my son has a basketball game tonight!

His team is undefeated!

His last game score was 75 -14! That was hard to watch, felt bad for the other team.

[caty]

48. Hell no!

I'll watch "Supernatural" and then channel search until it's over.

[lies and propaganda]

49. ill be watching King of the Hill

yesterday they had the episode from '00 when they met Bush and he had a limpwristed handshake; absolutely amazing.

[imperial jedi]

50. I'm not watching

If I did I'd be puking the rest of the night.:puke::puke::puke::puke:

[Fredda Weinberg]

51. Bought a Stephen Lynch DVD

He was damn funny ...
