You know you've been at Poly for too long when...
...you find yourself thinking "Studying social science will really help me with the Democracy Games".

Excellent; top marks!!

FWIW: Skankyspam--being so desperate for +1 you dig up an old idea and begin a new thread.

To get 100+ PPD all stops MUST be pulled.
