I’m confused.

Okay, so I just Googled. Dear God, it’s true. That is the weirdest think I learned today, and I retract my accusation. This time. :slight_smile:

Edit: I see why I didn’t know. First VP to live there was Walter Mondale. I’d had my US Civics classes by that time, so I never learned about it.

That was very interesting, thank you.
I don’t think I’ll ever live there.

She has to become VP first.

But that’s why we’re starting with the betrothal. We’ll move forward with a wedding once she’s in office. Long engagements are in vogue because of covid anyway, right? :wink:

In fairy tales/ mythologies the suitor has to perform feats to prove themself worthy of the fair maiden’s hand. My status as a maiden is questionable but I still think Ihamo has to become VP or climb a mountain of glass or defeat a minotaur.

As a modern, educated minotaur I prefer non-slaying tests of strength and wit. Things like chess, but with pieces that weigh 300 pounds.

I declare that the competition will be walking through a short, narrow doorway without bending or squishing.

It’s as fair as the chess match you proposed. What’s the problem?
