Day Six: Poll Position (Voice/ Text Poll)

Mar 11, 2009 17:16

Harry Lockhart here. I'm thinking that if I want to make money in a slightly more legitimate fashion than..well, my normal method, I kind of have to have a job. But as the Ramones once said, it's not my place in a nine to five world. Just don't see me doing office work, you know how it is, would probably end up destroying a copier machine with a ( Read more... )

this won't end well, ticky box, polls, for fun and profit, public, detective work, harry lockhart, voicemail, no fourth wall, not a real detective

Sure got a knack, haven't you?

8percentchance March 11 2009, 22:42:10 UTC

Well, I figure if I do a, you know, good enough job with this detective--investigating stuff, the name is not really that important. Besides, it's given power to the people, sticking it to the man.

Just a little.

tempzilla March 11 2009, 22:42:57 UTC

And how exactly does it do that?

8percentchance March 11 2009, 22:44:54 UTC

Because the people get to decide the agency name. It's like audience participation, or voting! Democracy in action! A lot more patriotic words that work in a high school essay!

You do realize that if you leave it up to the masses, your company is going to be named Tickey Box, right?

8percentchance March 11 2009, 22:58:48 UTC

That's a choice I'll just have to live with. Besides, you know, there's worse names, or I can appoint myself dictator of the poll and ignore those vote. Type things.

Democracy in action.

I like to think I'd be a benevolent leader. Vote for me anyway.

tempzilla March 12 2009, 00:55:52 UTC

I don't vote. Never trusted politicians.

They're paid fakers, no wonder Ronnie Reagan did so well.

tempzilla March 12 2009, 01:14:13 UTC

Ronnie Reagan? Who's --

What, he was one of the American presidents, right?

8percentchance March 12 2009, 19:48:36 UTC

Yup. Used to be an actor, way back in the fifties. So, you know, it makes sense he'd wind up being paid to lie some more. He did win the cold war, though, so, you know, not too bad there.

tempzilla March 12 2009, 22:22:26 UTC

Only you Americans could elect an actor for president.

8percentchance March 13 2009, 00:45:47 UTC

You should see the governor of California, while you're at it. They elected the Terminator. Seriously, I guess they must have thought he'd kick ass if the machines ever rose up on us.

tempzilla March 13 2009, 00:46:38 UTC

Good lord.
