  1. We're gonna have to play a bit better than we did last night if we want to do that.
  2. Well, I was trying to keep it non cr, so I declined to mention that bit. Otherwise it was quite refreshing.
  3. No cr intended, but if you go back and watch the hearings, there was an impressive amount of bipartisan cooperation. It was as if our government was actually functioning as it should.
  4. I have more ammo than I'll probably ever shoot, I could probably donate some.
  5. I think this was more of a hearing to establish under oath that governmental and non governmental organizations have these things, etc. and are working secretly on them without congressional oversight. There was lots of talk of classification and passing legislation to overhaul out classification system with regards to UAP's. Also establishing procedures for reporting and investigating them.
  6. Also, -US corporations receiving shadow money to reverse engineer alien tech. -Our government has known about this since the 1930's -To provide a list of cooperative and non-cooperative witnesses to congress as well as locations of crashes and recovered craft and locations of where to look for information regarding them.
  7. FYI, congressional hearing begins in less than half an hour.
  8. Another Rec for Rebels. Clone Wars is good too, with the exception of a handful of episodes, but it is a pretty sprawling story that has so much going on that it feels like more of a slog at times. Rebels is pretty tight story wise and looking back after you finish the series it doesn't really feel like any episodes were wasted.
  9. Anybody who starts a thread about a Twitter thread and only posts the first tweet should be banned.
  10. Blaster beams aren't lasers, brah.
  11. If global thermonuclear war erupts before the governments admits it has recovered alien spacecraft parts in the hearings on the 26th I'm gonna be pissed!
  12. What kind of person do you have to be to respond like that? If what @BearSchlongsaid is accurate, the grandfather thought he had emptied his weapon (1) and then placed it out of reach (2). Now, our standards now for securing a gun are more stringent than that, but what he did was probably extra careful for his generation. But you don't miss a beat and go out and lump him in with a group of traitors who wished to subvert the very fabric that holds our country together?
  13. I just leave them on all the time as I prefer it. My ADD makes it hard for my brain to focus on what is being said with all the background noise in movies and TV nowadays, so having the titles on helps me keep up with what is going on.
  14. Rapinoe rocking the Chilli Bowl.
  15. Oh, so she didn't forget her cards?
  16. At first I thought Vietnam was just kind of clumsy, but they are straight playing dirty.
  17. Yeah, that was deserved. The first half was pretty slow, but it turned out to be a pretty good match.
  18. Nigeria is getting pretty scrappy.
  19. How do the Surly music experts feel about this cover?
  20. If this takes down Dan Patrick the Democrats are gonna be pissed that they could have KO'd him all this time with just a $3 million donation from the right PAC.
  21. Are there a lot of courthouses in Tennessee where lynchings haven't taken place?
  22. I was born in '85, and I don't remember the word queer being used that much as a serious derogatory term. Yeah, we played smear the queer, but it was always a word that didn't really make sense to me as a derogatory term. If we wanted to call someone gay in derogatory way we said faggot. Queer was a word that old people used if they wanted to say something hurtful. I'm not saying it didn't happen, but it just felt off if somebody tried to use it with venom.
  23. I think you missed the part where they are all used the way retarded is now, and retarded was meant to be a non-offensive way to refer to those people. Now thise words are no longer associated with mentally disabled people and are just insults. If the word retarded follows that same path, it will lose the current connotations it has, and we will have to explain to our kids that special didn't always mean that.
