  1. You won the battle today...but I shall win the war* *I hope
  2. Oh were you in QQQ or XLK or something? Sorry man honestly didn't look because I can't view other people's portfolios since I use the mobile website and trade from my phone.
  3. Hell sometimes it is busy spreading the holiday cheer.
  4. Oh well, best of luck to him, great guy. Go beat aggy.
  5. On a serious note where did y'all find some of these godforsaken penny stocks?
  6. No clue why I thought this started on the 17th and not today. Oh well. Probably for the best. Get to watch a bunch of chumps hand me third place. 🤣
  7. No options? Sad reaccs only.
  8. I commit to paying. Having some trouble getting cashapp to take my money
  9. Do you have venmo? I'd prefer not to set up another payment app just to send a hundo. If not that's fine I'll send tonight or tomorrow morning, whenever I remember
  10. 10000 dollars into PRPL calls cuz why not?
  11. Fauci has been the director of NIAID for like 45 years. He's literally the world preeminent epidemiologist. Not going to go further than that in the recruiting thread, but a dumb both sides post deserves a quick refutation.
  12. This is impressively regarded even for you
  13. In most cases I agree, but Standing Rule #10: "Fuck Jeff Fisher" overrules any objections I have to such petty shit.
  14. There's a special kind of camaraderie built when cramming in the ACA (portable in front of ENS as it was torn down). Probably different but also something that is shared by very few people.
  15. So proud of the men of our team, from the players to the coaches for all coming together in the best way possible to make positive change. Everyone seems to have left the table happy with what they got and Tom backed our players to the hilt and the players know it. Painter still needs its name changed, but damn am I glad RLM is gone as the name and the statue of Heman Sweatt is a positive step in the right direction.
  16. Sure. There are some differences in that Newsom has been consistently supporting public health officials, been pro-lockdown, etc. and was only forced by the political reality of an open rebellion by sheriffs and the stupid people of Southern California. The people of OC sent so many death threats to their health commissioner she quit out of fear for her family's lives. LA and OC just ignored the beach closure order and partied on beaches and no cops enforced the order. I'd say the governor did about as well as he could, while county and municipal governments in SoCal and the no man's land north of Sacramento managed to do worse than just about any county or municipal government in Texas. It's unsurprising the 6 worst counties of CA for rona are all in SoCal while NorCal is mostly comparatively ok. Not surprising as local government in CA is dumber than just about anywhere.
  17. You're right. When all these countries around the world closed everything for a couple months, wore masks, etc. for two months and managed to bring new cases per day to nearly 0 and only had one local maximum -- despite in almost all cases having higher pop density and more public transportation -- it had nothing to do with the masks, lockdown, contact tracing, etc. You're also right to point out that no one suffers any long term consequences from this. Either you die or you're fine after two weeks. Oh wait you're fucking stupid because masks, social distancing, and contact tracing all helped reduce spread AND plenty of people will suffer long term damage to their lungs and hearts for every one person that dies. If we hadn't opened early and handled it properly from the beginning we could be properly opening now like plenty of other countries.
  18. Jesus why is it every time I hear Okinawa and the US military it's the military embarrassing us. Fucking hell.
  19. Of course, I would love to be wrong and have competent leadership at the local, state, and federal leadership, but best case scenario in Texas one can hope for is the first. Then we also need to hope the people do the right thing and that's just not happening unfortunately. But yeah, if I could be wrong and COVID vanished tomorrow I'd jump for joy.
  20. Yet. The word you're missing is yet. We're not even in their league yet. With cases, hospitalizations, and deaths still all following an exponential curve we're likely not going see new cases per day level off for another week or so at best. Further, whenever the number of new cases per day levels off it will be far above what it is now. That means deaths per day probably won't level off for another two to three weeks and when it does it will also be significantly higher than it is now as well. Integrate the area under that curve to calculate the total deaths and you're looking at a high number.
  21. I'm so glad you kept talking. There's an old saying about it being better to keep quiet and let people think you're dumb than open your mouth and confirm it for everyone. Thank God you didn't heed that and confirmed you can't read, think or understand basic math. Now I know I should only waste my time on you if I want the lulz of hearing dumb shit like a full throated argument that the rate of incidence of x across the entire population multiplied by the total population isn't the total incidences in the population. Fucking brilliant.
