I can't wait until the elections over and TV stops being all politics all the time. In starts being all Christmas all the time! So as soon as we're getting swamped by one tidal wave of hype, we're immediately swamped by another. Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water. Vote me

thephildagostino: Especially since “tidal waves” have nothing to do with tides, other than that they both involve water. Tsunami is a scientific term and so is understandable in any language in the world – even land-locked ones, if the person is educated enough to have encountered it. Your tag looks very much like some Greek meaning “one who likes a little ignorance”.
