Here are the results of our β€œNaughty or Nice” poll.  Politics Plus Polls are not scientific, because those who respond are not balanced according to demographic categories.   Therefore, we do not accurately reflect the makeup of the US population.  Nevertheless, our polls are usually factually accurate, and more often than not, they reflect thinking or will of the national majority.

I get toys (actually I gave them to my great neice and nephew). I think I’ve been good . . . I even invited my not so nice neighbour (she can be very nice when she wants something) for Christmas dinner because I know she lost custody of her daughter because of her imbibing and I thought she might appreciate some company. She turned me down which OK. I will spend some time with my mother. I saw mother on the 23rd and for the first time, I had rivers of tears because of how downhill she has gone. My mom’s 2 grandmothers died Christmas Eve 7 years apart and her stepfather died New Year’s Eve. I think the memories of those events and seeing my mother’s condition overwhelmed me when I wasn’t looking.

I’m so sorry Lynn if I could reach you I’d give a big hug. My Mom was in that difficult place last year at this time. This year she isn’t here to hear her voice but at least I know she is free from the conditions that held her mind and body at the end. Sending love and light to you…hugs too.

Thanks Sheryl. I call them "virtual hugs" and I very much appreciate them. The contraction of muscles on her right side is very painful, and now her left is starting to contract. But she fights to maintain her last bits of independence and dignity by holding a small sandwich in her left hand and eating it. But this will be gone all too soon as well.

 

I think when it is my mother’s turn to take the next steps in her soul’s journey, she will say, if I might paraphrase MLK Jr, "Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, I am free at last!"

I had to say "Naughty" because of all the bad stuff I post on FB and all the arguments I get into with my RepublicanT friends.

I get toys – well, to be factual, my rescue cat and rescue dog get toys – but I get to watch them play so happily with them!

I get toys. Neither I nor anyone I know can afford to give coal. (At least not real coal. Dollar Tree has some chocolate coal which isn’t bad.

Actually, I’ve been rather nice all things considered – however, I keep having naughty thoughts mostly about Faux Noise and the GOP and wishing for a quiet way to get rid of both…..

My answer is obvious.  TomCats are naughty by definition.

The new poll is up.  Please vote.

  1. Old Poll: I didn't vote mainly that there was no category of "I am sooo good that I got nothing". lol.

     

  2. I didn't vote either, because we don't exchange gifts.  [But I DID deserve them … ;-)]

  3. I wish you had the category Jim Phillips describes.  I would have gone for it.  But my big question in reading the results is what on earth time zone is the polling site in?  There is no way I would have been up at 4:47 a.m. on December 16, or any other day.

  4. I see we are pretty much split down the middle except those 7 really naughty ones.

  5. I said I’m optimistic, but then I remembered that the republikkkans will be in office soon. I think I need to change that to “pessimistic”!
    No, I won’t let those bastards get me down! We must make sure that we get EVERYONE out to VOTE in 2016 and to hold the republikkkans’ feet to fire this next 2 years!

  6. "TomCats are naughty by definition." — That's fine and dandy, but are you naughty coal or so naughty that you get expensive toys?  Fess up puddy tat!

    I particularly like Gene's answer  "I am nice, but have been so naughty to and about the right wingnuts, I think I’m in the last category and should by myself something nice that I can use to be even naughtier next year to them. :^"

  7. I try to be naughty, but like Gene, it is usually against the Republithugs.  I look like a Sunday school teacher, so that is where I am assigned. No one really knows the adventures I have in my mind! 

  8. Thanks all.  I use ti be so very naughty as to get expensive gifts, but I'm afraid I forgot how. πŸ™

    Coal for me.
