The SOTU Thread

Tonight at 9pm ET, President Obama will deliver his sixth State of the Union address. Here is a thread for discussion while it's happening, and, in advance, to talk about what we hope he will say, fear he won't say, or are depressingly sure he will say.

What will "our wives, mothers, and daughters" be getting up to tonight, I wonder?!

screen cap of tweet authored by me reading: 'My SOTU drinking game: First time POTUS says 'our wives, mothers, & daughters' I do a shot then jump in a cannon & fire myself into the sun.'

Other totally trenchant questions: How many times will Speaker Boehner scowl during the speech? Will Vice President Biden whip out the finger-guns? Will any shitbird Republican congressmen yell out some disrespectful shit during the address? ONLY TIME WILL TELL!
