  1. Some leaders of the Mississippi Mafia were arrested
  2. I'd feel bad for poor yttv being at the mercy of big bad Disney, but yttv is google which is worse or at the very least as much of a monopolist as Disney and should be brroken apart. Fuck 'em both. I have yttv but I'll gladly cancel and find a stream.
  3. /csb My sister was at my house a few months ago and took a call that I ignored but from the tone it sounded official. Then I heard her say, "Okay, my account number is" and I yelled at her and told her to be quiet and not say another word... I may not have been so polite, I don't recall. She goes, "What? It's my bank!" I said do not say another word to them, your fucking bank NEVER calls you unsolicited for a security issue. She's incredulous. "But it's my bank. They just want me to verify. They think there might be fraud on my account" I tell her, get their fucking phone number and call them back because you're being phished right now." Sister was surprised when she tried calling back and it was a fake phone number. I was stupified.
  4. Sure but the main point is...
  5. Yeah I meant to write un-self aware but there was already an "un" in there so it mistakenly got dropped. (Purposeful use of passive voice.)
  6. The very first words -- before "Costs" -- are "MINOR ONE-TIME". So, yes, his wife is a fucking moron which is what he said before he started defending her.
  7. I feel like you missed the point. Or maybe I missed the joke idk. context:
  8. Took a buyout.
  9. Platner is taking on water
  10. The Washington Post published an unironically un-self-aware article today and was fittingly called out by one of their former columnists who departed due to the Post's fascist-remake and business downturn if you want to read the article https://www.washingtonpost.com/entertainment/2025/10/31/kennedy-center-sales/
  11. My grandfather bought a rice cooker at a garage sale in Galveston in 1956 and I finally inherited it. Greatest rice cooker ever. What an absolute beast.
  12. The oxo with its swivel blade maintains contact with the carrot and is more flexible than a swiss style peeler. IMO. Also, I think a significant portion of the population is not aware of the going both ways trick. But ymmv
  13. The Oxo swivels and it has two opposing blades which means you can easily change direction on the carrot and cut the peeling time in half.
  14. this is a yt interview of Cory intro-
  15. chill bro...have some ivermectin, Kennedy says it's good
  16. this motherfucking cop has rancid balls and a rancid brain
  17. Man jailed for a mean meme - sheriff maganazi interviewed by local news yesterday 1 day later charges dropped
  18. this is what happens when you let piggy OD on testosterone and Arby's
  19. Saw Good Fortune at the theater on Sunday. Aziz Ansari, Keanu Reeves and Seth Rogen. It's a comedy in the Trading Places vein. There were a few people in the theater who constantly LOL'd and I'm guessing those people are already big fans of Ansari or Keanu. Each star pretty much played themselves. The type of story has been well-explored. The twist here is it really shows the struggle for those who have to work gig jobs, in restaurants or in retail. That was an interesting choice because it's supposed to be a comedy yet has some rather depressing moments. The ending however is nice and trite and wraps it all up with a happy ending. As for whether it's a comedy. I found the legit lol's in the theater much more hysterical than the actual move, so ymmv. High 80s on RT, I'd give it 2.5/4.
  20. CTJ wrote he thinks the source is Jerrah and that's as good a guess as any. In fact, I'd say it seems very likely. For several reasons, the source was almost certainly an NFL owner or someone in their close circle. We can also surmise it's definitely not Sexton nor a bmd for the simple reason it's in none of their interests to leak that info about Sark at this point in the season. The reporter who got the quote about Sark also wasn't around a bmd nor Sexton last week, however she was at the NFL owner's meeting. The original NYT report is by now pretty well buried on The Athletic site but it was written by a reporter whose job is to cover the NFL. She covered last week's NFL owner's meetings and that's where someone apparently gossiped to her about Sark looking for an NFL job. Jerrah is well-known to be a big gossip. The line about Sark is but one sentence at the end of a longish article - maybe 1000 words, all about the NFL except for the Sark mention. The reporter dropped the "I'm told..." about Sark in the context of discussing what certain NFL owners are saying about their own teams and the league. The use of "I'm told" means she had but a single source. If she had more than one source, she and her editor would have printed that. Her article not only quotes Jerrah extensively about NFL matters, the reporter also wrote about him very favorably - some would say even fawningly. The rule of thumb when there is an unnamed source is that you can almost always find them quoted elsewhere in the article and that person will be treated favorably within the article. And then you have to analyze who would be motivated to make the statement AND ask for non-attribution. The rule of thumb applies to the Cowboys owner on all counts.
  21. Which has nothing to do with last week. They're fucking with anyone they see on the streets. If you're concerned about criminals they are in fact working for ICE and at the Trump Shiite House. If it were about the knock-offs, 1) NYPD would've been there, and 2) the brands supposedly being infringed know how to make that happen.
  22. Maybe I don't understand the point of the post. Giuliani (of all people another gigantic hypocrite and felon) tried a Zero Tolerance police strategy when he was mayor in NYC and it was a huge failure in multiple ways. Whatever dipshit above referred to "public disorder" deserves one kick in the head and another to the nuts.
