  1. exciting, fun game, disappointing finish.
  2. if it helps at all with your recent perception challenges, @safe sex...i've spent the last few years thinking @Schulz2.0 worked at a nuclear power plant for some reason (i cannot even remember the genesis of the belief) and now i see from this page that he apparently works at a refinery. it's almost the same as you thinking i was a woman.
  3. ahhh, the 1981 omnibus budget reconciliation act. what an unfortunate and shameful moment in our history. very sorry to hear about all this, derka. here's hoping you can find a good stable rhythm in your life. keep your head up and keep plowing forward the best you can. i had to get a suicidal in-law professional help last year and we first tried rock springs in georgetown and it was pretty horrible. got him over to sage in manor and it was a bit better but cost $24K for a few weeks. really unfortunate and that exposure to this realm is decidedly depressing in its own right.
  4. durant will be 14. alfred won silver in the 200m yesterday which is not in rofl's graphic.
  5. trump's campaign manager is chris lacivita. he was the consultant for the 527 swiftboat group that went all in on john kerry in 2004. he spearheaded their media campaign. it was remarkably effective in 2004 against an actual vet on behalf of george w. bush who was a cosplayer. the hypocritical shamelessness of doing it on behalf of someone who blatantly exerted wealth privilege to avoid any actual service and calls military members suckers and losers and routinely shits on their memory is not really a surprise here. they are creating a strawman for their base to beat up on that is not rooted in reality...namely, that walz claimed to be something he wasn't and then disparaging that. can they demonstrate what he claimed that was inaccurate? no. but they generated the narrative and just hope it catches a viral wave - not unlike couch fucking. it's an effort to reinvigorate boomer white male country club republicans. i doubt it will be effective and if i were dems, i would have kamala simply contrast his 24 year gaurdsman career with bonespurs at a rally.
  6. Oh, so you can see my posts? why did you ignore my question about reimposing D-F risk retention vehicle requirements on clo managers?
  7. for what it’s worth, if anyone is struggling to recall a good analogue in French literature for this pimphand dipshit, first to mind would probably be monsieur homais from flaubert’s “madame bovary.”
  8. You sound like you want some heavy handed government regulation in the structured debt product markets. Can I count on your support to reimpose Dodd-frank risk retention vehicle requirements for the portfolio managers by tying their fees to the equity tranche investor returns? Possibly even dial up those requirements?
  9. lol, reading this interlude of delusional “red pill” pathology rooted in covid era antivax branded stupidity led to my recollection of one of my all time favorite videos that featured pimphand.
  10. Something about her reminds me of Kelly rorbach (minus the bombs…but plus being able to run down a football field with xavier worthy)
  11. Agreed. Strikingly beautiful.
  12. you really have to hand it to surly sometimes for the service it provides to its community in exposing us all to the rich culture that makes up the tapestry that is american life. there's no way the majority of posters on here would ever, in the course of their day-to-day lives, encounter a real life reprobate that was actually moved by the galactically stupid bullshit of kamala harris disavowing and leveraging her various heritages (any question of which being obviated by her parents' respective race/nationalities) and the notion that one cannot be definitively multi-racial despite the fact that virtually everyone in this country has some level of various heritages. you would genuinely be shocked if you encountered someone that fatuous in the normal course of business that is your daily life. and yet, here you are...presented with one right here on this thread on surly to observe/mock/seek to understand. it's extraordinary.
  13. i was annoyed just enough by the end of this season that i said "fuck it, i'm not going to wait until my 11 year old is in college to figure out what happens and just read it all. i have never read a single fantasy book in my life but this show pissed me off so much that i did it out of spite (well, a summary version but nonetheless).
  14. based on my experience of being the only person i know in my age group that lives in westlake that didn't grow up there (or river oaks in houston), it's because they all know the only way they are going to be able to afford their lifestyle of playing acc/barton creek, hunting on private leases, and going boating every weekend is if they inherit their parents' money unimpeded after having most of their lives funded by them already.
  15. i have this game on in the other room while i am trying to get shit done as i am oft to do and will usually go off of the sound of the commentators to determine if i should get up and go see what is happening. this methodology is failing me today. i would have thought the score of this game was 19-16 based on the pbp's random explosions of screaming. i keep walking in there to see replays of france heading balls 20 feet over the goal.
  16. not sure how that was not a penalty in the box on egypt. olympic france starting to remind me of euros france. how many times can you hit the post in one game? good lord.
  17. i have to admit, while i try to not to be the cliche of "i don't know what you people are talking about, i have never heard of britney spears" bullshit, i had genuinely never heard of adin ross before today and now i know he sniffed andrew tate's chair while he was out of the room and and that he blew his fugitive escape plan out of romania. and this guy has been anointed as some sort of taste-making influencer? what the ever loving fuck?
  18. yeah, i don't blame you for it. i don't know why all of a sudden everyone links from there. i think it must be because its search algo on its site is pretty good. but with the captcha in between, it will never embed. but i think it is weird too because it isn't a high google image search result compared to gifphy and stuff. i just assume that most people google search "umm gif" and then go to google images but i guess i am wrong about that. anyway, not sure what any of this has to do with french literature but you'd think people would learn.
  19. imma, since you are going to come in from left field with crazy thread policing that makes no sense, can you also throw a banner notification up on this site to tell all the crazy bastards to stop trying to link gifs from yarn since it has a human captcha test in between and it will not show up here?
  20. why do you people make multiple handles? that shit is so fucking bizarre to me. what is the point of socks (other than that time that slorch made one to rep himself)?
  21. seems a bit extreme. only rooting interest left is les bleus. would say i'd be happy to see mar win if not. looks like that's over.
  22. MAR is fucking everyone up...good lord. if it is MAR and FRA in the final, that place is going to be bonkers.
