A simple thought experiment to explain the process behind the electoral college
You and two friends decide to go out to eat for lunch, only one of you brought a card so you all agree to venmo the one who brought it after you eat as none of you brought any cash either.
You want to get some pizza, and your two friends want to eat human shit sandwiches, you decide to put it to a democratic vote because that’s obviously the most fair right?
You obviously lose and you have to eat the shit sandwich, sucks doesn’t it?
How could this have been avoided?
Simple, you make your vote worth 2, this forces an even tie and forces the shit sandwich twins (you should probably stop hanging out with them btw) to compromise, you all end up agreeing on burgers and you eat in relative peace
Now apply this logic to the electoral college, and you understand why the Montana Wheat farmer or the Wyoming cattle rancher’s state gets to have as much of a say as California or New York

Get the Shit Sandwich Theory mug.Probably because I ate all those sandwiches should not be used when describing why you ate all those sandwiches. Do not include a time period that you ate all of those sandwiches
John: "Hey Chris, why'd you ask Marissa out? You don't even like black chicks."
Chris: "I don't know. It's probably because I ate all those sandwiches."

Get the Butt Knucle Sandwich mug.A sexual experiment gone terribly right, the human centipede sandwich is done when performing a 69 in a stacked up three-way
"Bro I heard Hannahs a freaky, like three way freaky"
"Damn wouldn't see that in her"
"Dude rumor is she got stacked up with a friend to 69 in a human centipede sandwich"
"Let's get HER number!"
