    I guess if we follow the money, we now know the prime mover. It was always Starbucks.
  2. A guy named Ford needs to be in a town with a dealership. I'm available for NIL advice by appointment. Fees: reasonable.
  3. I'm curious. Is The Raid Redemption the movie you're calling The Raid? Gareth Evans directs Raid Redemption, I see. Havoc looks like fun. Idiots.
  4. I wonder who will play Hackman in the movie about this. Such a great actor with such range. I'm so glad Wes Anderson cast him in Tannenbaums. RIP
  5. You don't know what the fuck you're talking about. The Ignorance Shield was used throughout this thread. Maybe read the responses. Negged for distortion and ignorance. Start a new thread for your derangement syndrome.
  6. I find it difficult to read. Not all eyes are perfect.
  7. He'd fucking sell it. And that would be poetry.
  8. Good use of symptomatic. There are other symptoms as you allude. The main reason we lost is that we're the minority. I don't know that I want to abandon contempt and disdain for the active and acquiescent who are responsible for where we are. I'm in the camp of those hoping for some element of that minority to awaken and act due to implosion. I don't see any winning strategy at the moment. To be clear, I don't think what I've written is in disagreement with what you have written.
  9. Very good posts, my friends. These moronic and monster tendencies were already present, but it was Reagan and Rush who started galvanizing them into the malicious and self-righteous political force that they are today. Aside from wickedness, their strongest trait is their absurd level of confidence in their beliefs. Fuck Reagan and we should have buried Rush alive.
  10. He's got that book learnin' but no commin sinse.

    LBGTQ

    If that's enacted, on Sept 1 we should find some petty state form that's online and have every right thinking person in the state fill out that form checking off the box for the wrong sex. I cannot think of a simpler form of demonstration against these petty but lethal bits of legislation. I'm so glad that the major news outlets local and national have focused on egg prices as a prime reason for the election of cruel tyranny. It's so nice and safe and kinda funny. They have run to a safe, snug little harbor in order to ignore the ugly storm of what the elections really meant about the electorate. Let's ask the questions here: What kind of people are moved to vote in such representation? Well, we hope they'll watch the show, so we don't want to alienate them. You're already a public enemy as far as they're concerned! We've been covering politics [the exact same way] for decades. I think we know what we're doing. Do you have any duty to truth? I can't believe you ask that question! We're a news organization! Show him out! I prefer third person plural, so "them." Eyes roll. Laughter ensues. Somebody checks corporate rules to see if their national news organization may be liable for fraud. The young man who risked and lost his job without remorse articulated exactly the tyranny-in-the-details that acquiescence to normalizes tyranny by the rulers and intolerance among the ruled. He's out of work which is a measure of his sacrifice. And now this: How much do you need, Wolf? You can go from an annoyingly voiced hack delighted to be in the newsroom heaven of not reporting news to be a journalist of substance by insisting your tiresome panels take on bigger questions than the price of eggs and how the stupid Dems let the tyrants Trumpists in. You can start by using words like tyranny. You can embrace that word far faster than you ever could bring yourself to call Trump's iterations lies. You could get fired over priniciple like Frank Zamora. You could enter your cushy retirement something of a hero even if your sacrifice was relatively little. Perhaps I spend too much time running my razor over the news outlets. I'm just surprised at low the "journalists" have fallen in my lifetime. We've got a bigger story than Watergate with all the foreign money openly flowing to Trump. Nary a whisper from the panels. Eggs. It's all about the eggs.
  12. This and this are very nice details. The happy worm is still making me laugh for some reason.
  13. As new facts have come to my attention, I retract my moment of embarrassing softness. She has aligned herself with enemies and destroyers of the republic who embrace cruelty as acidic dressing to their every action. Empathy beyond their immediate family is unknown to them. They deserve little from me. She and her kind are nothing to me. Forgive my lapse. Thanks for straightening me out. Written without irony.
  14. I'll be contrary on this one. [ETA: I'm reversing myself on the below. She's part of a movement to end the republic and do terrible things to people in manyfold ways. Fuck this traitor. Thanks @Gatorubet] The above seems way too extreme to me. Nobody should walk around in fear for their life or have their entire family brought down for an act that doesn't even break the law. The one event indicates that's she's an awful person and chose to publish her despicable act. She idiotically made herself identifiable. Her name is published. She faces scorn. Good. She should. People can make business choices based on what they know about her, and that's fine, too. Unleashing the fury of thousands of anonymous people who can threaten anything is terrible. Gleefully wishing her life and family destroyed is crazy. She becomes like the criminals we condemn to horrors in prison and celebrate it. She's a POS to whom I wouldn't give the time of day. I would not want to witness her terrified or homeless. It's just that simple. Pos rep.
  15. Yea, but think of all that cash we're making on the tariffs!
  16. One of our traits that keeps getting us in trouble is the assumption that other people are not as brave and willing to fight as we are. I think that drives popular support of and government belief in the deterrent effect of bombing people. I think "shock and awe" against Iraq proved the idiocy of that. Just like it, indeed. We never learn. Bombing other people makes the survivors extremely angry. Russia expected to walk in and take over Ukraine with a show of massive force. Nope. The French joke about them surrendering all the time is amusing, but it's just a joke. They're no more tame than the rest of Europe and the world. Like you and most around here, I'm glad to see them not acquiesce to Trump's America as have we.
  17. Whoever came up with this name should win some type of lifetime annuity. Interesting sequence:
  18. The amount of water used to keep augustine grass green is beyond idiotic in drought prone areas. Buffalo grass looks more interesting and managed to grow all over the plains without anything but rain. I'm sure the geniuses at A&M are spreading the word throughout the state.
  19. Devilish good looks?
  20. He's lying. All of us boomers are lying. I've seen MIA at all the white man boomer meetings. He eats all the best babies.
  21. I used to use plague and bubos as metaphors for Trump's actions and character. Now it's literal.
  22. No stripes. No helmet merit stickers.
