Election day tomorrow

Tomorrow the fantastically exciting local elections in Finland draw to a close. I'm totally finished after several weeks of campaigning for Maija, and still I feel I could have done much, much more.

Tomorrow's schedule is also quite hectic; it will be a loong day before I can join all those crazy party people to hopefully celebrate our biggest win yet. The National Coalition Party has never managed to take the #1 spot in local elections, but we're closer to a win than ever.
But before celebrating a win, I must get up at 7, go to the polling station and get things ready before it opens. Then I apparently sit there and seal peoples' votes and see that everything goes according to law. The post-election party starts at 10 pm, but before I'll get there I'll have to stay behind counting votes until about 10.30 pm. Only then, if I have any energy left, may I join the party (and probably fall asleep in my pint).

It's been fun, and next time we'll do it so much better.

I would've been a Nazi Swine
Achtung! You are 38% brainwashworthy, 50% antitolerant, and 19% blindly patriotic
Sie sind ein Schwein! You would've lived a quiet and consenting civilian life in Germany, while the Nazis stomped all over people you didn't quite care about.

You would never have directly joined the Nazis, basically because (1) you're not so nationalistic, (2) you're not that susceptible to crazy propaganda, and (3) you probably don't have the bloodlust. But you would've appreciated the Party, because you liked how they cleaned out the [insert race you dislike here].

The fact is, you demonstrate too much attachment to and pride of your own kind, be they white & male & straight or whatever. You absolutely would not have stood up to the Germans.

Conclusion: born and raised in Germany in the early 1930's, you would NOT have STOOD UP to the Nazis. Sorry

The Wild Rose
Random Brutal Love Dreamer (RBLD)

shmolorful, but unpicked. You are The Wild Rose.

Prone to bouts of cynicism, sarcasm, and thorns, you excite a certain kind of man. Hoping to gather you up, he flirts and winks and asks you out, ultimately professing his love. Then you make him bleed. Why? Because you're the rare, independent, self-sufficient kind of woman who does want love, but not from a weakling.

You don't seem to take yourself too seriously, and that's refreshing. You aren't uptight; you don't over-plan. Romance-wise, sex isn't a top priority--a true relationship would be preferable. For your age, you haven't had a lot of bonafide love experience, though, and this kind of gets to core of the issue. You're very selective.

Your exact female opposite:
The Dirty Little Secret

Deliberate Gentle Sex Master
The problem is them, not you, right? You have lofty standards that few measure up to. You're out there all right, but not to be picked up by just anyone.


"You're never truly single as long as you have yourself."

ALWAYS AVOID: The Bachelor (DGSM)

CONSIDER: The Vapor Trail (RBLM).
