The 3rd presidential debate

Anonymous

Anybody gonna watch it? I'm thinking of just going to bed. I have to get up at 6 am anyway, and the debate doesn't end until 10:30 pm. Something tells me I won't miss out on anything important.

I had contemplated watching, but decided against it. I am having a very hard time trying to convince myself that my candidate is worth voting for.I hear that in Nevada you have the option to vote for neither candidate. I wonder if I will make my choice once I am in the voting booth.

I get up at 6am each morning and go to bed 11.30pm most nights. I will absolutely be watching the debate.

A gentle reminder: you are welcome to answer BC's question here in OT, but please remember that this is a fashion forum, and not a political forum.

We have lights-out/TV off here by 9 pm as hubby is up at 5 am. May quietly follow on live-blogs and will definitely watch in full tomorrow (online). I personally cannot wait until November 9th. The stress is getting to me.

I know who I am voting for but won't be watching - the debates make me very agitated although I should to bear witness.

I am not an undecided voter, but I will be watching. I think I will make popcorn.

I really feel it the next day if I don't get to bed by 10 pm. I'll watch what I can, but won't sacrifice sleep to watch the whole thing. We have a DVR, and it's not like it won't be all over FB.

I respect everyone and don't wish to discuss politics; just think it's safe to say that we're all tired of this campaign and can't wait 'till it's over.

Here's a debate prep pic for you!

I'm on Pacific time so it starts at 6pm. I started drinking some wine (with dinner).

Here in Australia it has been messing with our work day, because it is in the middle of the day. I didn't watch today, as I was in meetings, but I know at least some of my colleagues were in their offices with the doors closed and the debate on!
It must be very wearing, it is bad enough the coverage half a world away!

I watched about 30 minutes of it, then switched over to a movie.

YAY, no more debates!!!

My son watched it during the work day in Japan. It is worse being out of the country and having to try to answer zillions of questions from foreign friends and coworkers.

I watched it *instead of going to bed*, and predictably had trouble sleeping afterwards.

I just want to fast-forward a few weeks now. Maybe even a few months.

don't watch this one, didn't watch the last 2.....i consider myself to be very informed politically, but honestly never watch the debates, instead i prefer to read about them the next day. i find what watching them i am so focused on the visual (what they're wearing, how it fits etc) that i lose any focus on the actual policies and positions that are discussed

I watched it then I watched the pre-season Warriors game to cleanse my palate The game was *much* more fun than the debate, though arguable less important.

Watched with good friends and bingo sheets. Made it a lot more fun.

AG, bingo sheets? Sounds fun! I assume the squares were topics (won't say *issues*) covered. But how did you get stuff to fit?

Listened to it on the radio. I find the whole thing very surreal. It was the topic of discussion with the 'regulars' while waiting for the train this am. #nastywoman

A friend printed them from online! Short phrases like ISIS, Paul Ryan, "believe me", Billy Bush, etc covering both candidates.

We didn't watch it. There's so much negativity in and around all of this election campaign, and it makes me crazy. Watching it would not change my vote, and the BF is Canadian.

Instead, we went to an open mic jazz night at a nice restaurant. Sadly, it was a slow night. I guess everyone stayed home to watch the debate. On the other hand, the small crowd meant we got our food and drinks quickly
