Wouldn't the aliens need to sign the Geneva Convention first?

Technically no. Geneva Conventions protections are supposed to apply to all nations, even if they are not a signatory to the Conventions.
 
I don't know about you, but I don't trust that Probius.
 
Me neither
 
My town has its own council, with duly elected councillors, yes.
I assumed you would.

There was one year when I declined the mayoral ballot, since there wasn't one person I was willing to vote for. Formally declining the ballot says a lot louder version of "I don't think any of the above has the brains to run this city" than just spoiling the ballot... especially since the municipal ballots are now counted by machine instead of by humans.

Do the majority of people vote in the first place? I was never ever bothered about voting in my town in Georgia.

(Also you should probably change your signature already.)
 
Yup. Was eighteen.

Whether or not a majority of people vote tends to depend on how badly people want a change. During the last federal election here, there was much more effort to get students and aboriginals to vote, since they were among those most affected by Harpers "Fair" Elections Act. In Canada an increase in voter turnout tends to be when we really want to kick out the current government. I even went political here - you might have noticed my "Heave Steve" avatar.

We heaved him, all right. And he didn't even have the integrity to announce his resignation as party leader himself - he passed a note to a flunky, who in turn passed it to the news anchors.


Yeah, my signature needs a change. I haven't decided what to say yet.

Since most of you don't have electric kettles, how the hell do you make tea or instant coffee or cheap noodles at home?

These are kettles. 10 or 20 bucks from kmart or wherever. You fill then with water. They boil it in a couple minutes.

We don't generally do instant coffee.
