    If you dont drink milk you're a fucking communist 

    Fuck yes.   

    And if you don’t occasionally work through part of a bag of Chips Ahoy with a couple of glasses of milk, you’re a dirty communist.  

    No point in being an adult if you can’t do the things parents don’t want you to do.

    I'm beginning to suspect that Hammer is Devin Nunes. 

    They, like the GOP, are terrified of two things:

    - The various testimonies going public in the House.  

    - Impeachment trial happening in the Senate.   

    You would think they would be 100% confident if Trump and Co were innocent, about all of the testimony hitting the public, and about the Senate voting favorably to Trump.    

    Instead, they are terrified of the testimony hitting the public airwaves, and they want it stopped before it hits the Senate.

    rumor is that Rudy burns thru >$200K per month in personal expenses. Have to wonder how much he has in the bank to keep that lifestyle afloat.  Maybe he has 25m, maybe nothing.

    i would think that he’s too toxic for new business coming his direction, either legitimate US clients or shady foreign clients. No one would want to get caught up in DOJ warrants or get Rudy and trumps stank on them.  So Rudy would have zero in new client income. 

    so his only future income is whatever he has in the bank and whatever previous clients will pay him to keep quiet. 

    His last wife filed for divorce last year.   Apparently it’s going to be, or was, expensive.

    Oh yeah, try a year old at night who has way above average articulation and pronunciation telling you on Halloween: “Daddy, I don’t fear the dark anymore.  But I’m scared of those that can’t See the light.”

    Did your child say “the light” or “The Light”, because, while the difference may seem small/subtle, it’s very important to know which one they were talking about.

    PC Principal telling the kids what they couldn't dress up as for Halloween was pretty good.  

    If any of you fucking girls show up as Moana, I swear to god...

    Winnie the Pooh as the Annihilation bear was pretty good too.

    PC Principal is an aggy.

    Not sure if it's been covered, but it seems to me that nut allergies have increased dramatically over the years.  When I was in large public schools in Texas in the mid to late 70's I never heard of a nut allergy that could be fatal.  Many people had food (myself included) and insect bite allergies, but the reactions were more of an inconvenience than life-threatening.  Was it not publicized back then?

    You know how back in Armybrat's day, people who had diabetes usually didn't live long, thanks to no access to insulin shots?

    Apply that to EpiPens

    Spoiler

    I actually don't know, but I'd be willing to bet that people who had nut allergies used to die very young, with very little in the way of medical explanation - Hell, people with diabetes couldn't easily and reliably take care of it on their own until the 60s/70s).

    Just finished. Good, not great. A lot of Clear and Present Danger overlap, which isn't a bad thing. There were some plot holes you could fly a Blackhawk through, but that's Hollywood a typical Tom Clancy novel.

    Fixed.  Lest we forget, things got really fucking weird/far-fetched in a lot of his later novels, where he wrote himself into corners, or where he was just pumping out Jack Ryan fanfic.

    That's probably because there are about 4 ways.

    Děkuju (pronounced Djeh-ku-yu) - I thank you

    Děkuji (pronounced Djeh-quee) - It is being thanked (most common in my experience)

    Díky (the í is pronounced like a long E) 

    Dík (pronounced like Zeke)

    The last two are more informal...like "thanks" in English

    I met up with several Czech women over the course of a week while there on business, and afterward I got texts with variations of “špatná díra” and “ne můj zadek” and “to byl můj řiť”, and based on how hard my guide/translator laughed, there’s a bunch of Czech women that think I’m a shitty tipper.

    That's a damn bargain.  We sent my mom and her sister to game 6 of the 2011 World Series, and they sat in left field for ~ $550 a seat.

    Shit, you got ripped off, it only cost me $200 for a double-header with your mom and aunt.

    Ryan is a beating. I’m glad my kids don’t watch him anymore. He has toothbrushes and stuff too.

    A part of me respects the parents for milking the shit out of it and making a killing.   They and their kids will never have to have a real job for the rest of their lives.   But you know he’ll be an insufferable asshole later on, both because of being spoiled with every toy he could want. And he will probably get his ass kicked constantly in school for being that kid.   

    No joke, my 7 year-old son makes his own LEGO videos, and it’s been temping to upload them to YouTube.

  11. Women are getting fed up with alt-righters, which will lead to more incels?

    https://www.cnn.com/2019/10/30/us/white-supremacist-woman-reeve/index.html

    Quote

    CNN spoke to two other women who, like Samantha, spent about a year in the alt-right before quitting, unable to take the abuse anymore and fearing for their safety. They now reject their old beliefs. One had become interested in the movement after watching a speech Spencer gave at Texas A&M in late 2016.

    "I wasn't even a racist yet. I thought he made a really good argument for families," she told CNN, requesting anonymity because she fears violence. "He's good at making it sound legitimate." She liked "the family security, the promise of... whatever they're promising. Safety. It's very appealing."

    While this is a valid point, the entire CR has been marinating in its own juice for a couple of years now.

    WPH apparently pulled some kind of Rip Van Winkle and is making arguments dispensed with here a couple of years ago.

    What you have to understand is that Donald Trump is the Jacob Wohl of Presidents.
