  1. I mean, do you even eat at gas stations, bro?
  2. How could we possibly know?
  3. Just another "Kavanaugh Stop." Nothing to see here, move along.
  4. It's not what they realize or don't, it's whether they can play the constantly aggrieved card. To be the world's biggest "alpha male," that simpering little bitch boy whines and moans more than any fucking human who has ever existed. Only in MAGA world can the biggest whimpering, whining, tittybaby bitchboy be an "alpha male." I've taken runny dumps more alpha than that pussy-ass crybaby cunt.
  5. I've said it before, I'll say it again....we wouldn't be in this fucking mess if Senator Blutarsky was still in office.
  6. I'da had more respect for them if they just sold them as "meat chunks."
  7. That pastor lionized and loves him some Charlie Kirk. But no racism there, no sir. Just ask @Enchubben
  8. But we all agree that the Babylonian captivity really wasn't all that bad as "captivities" go, right? And "Babylon," by David Gray, was a pretty damned fine song.
  9. My wife was out of town for a week at a retreat. When she got home, there were 10 boxes and large envelopes stacked on her side of the table. I probably order 10 items per year.
  10. Yeah. I was doing all that too. But then the alarm went off on the fryer, and the manager was all up in my shit because we had like 12 orders backed up in the drive thru.
  11. This. Anyone who purports to be in favor of long-term peace in the region should brave themselves for that reality. The number of people capable of working for a peaceful coexistence has gone way down. The number of people whose hearts are hardened to a near-genocidal level of hatred has skyrocketed. The future in the region is likely very, very dark.
  12. We have reached the point where "everything's gotta have AI!" I'm surprised I can buy a box of cereal without it having a sticker on there that says "NOW FEATURING AI!!!!" No matter the industry, product, or project, YOU GOTTA GET YOUR DIP-TET!!! DO YOU HAVE YOUR DIP-TET??? It's not problem-identification, then evaluate the full slate of potential solutions (which might include AI for some). It's "here's a cool new thing! Apply it everywhere!" Layer onto the the outright scam of the circular investment/purchases that is AI capex....fucking hell.
  13. When we walked through the lobby of the Venetian this past weekend on the way to brunch, it was clogged with people with their phones out, taking videos. My wife and I were puzzled -- videos of what? They were all recording the fake "italian" ceiling paintings. WTF?
  14. It started in 2016. Things that Trump wants: adulation, praise, money, a Nobel Peace Prize, to be able to fuck Ivanka. All of those things except Ivanka have been used to manipulate Trump into certain postions. The Saudis and Qataris have used a mix of money and adulation/praise, for example. Zelensky is, as we speak, dangling a path to a Nobel Peace Prize in front of Trump to try to get him to give them Tomahawks. Putin manipulated him for years with money, and then fear (fear is a great motivator for a narcissist). And the list goes on. Now, if your concern is that not much of that manipulation has lined up with the interests of the United States, well.....the interest of the United States ain't got nothin' to do with shit. I'm just telling you that plenty of actors have manipulated him and continue to do so.
  15. Oh, I know -- @Pescado_Rojo and I have discussed in the past, he's all over it. It's just a classic fucking circular scam.
  16. Here's the thing: his thesis is not wrong. When you are dealing with a pathetic, lizard-brained fool who is motivated by rewards (and he defines what rewards matter to him -- in this case, he's made one such reward quite clear), manipulating him by dangling the prospect of that reward in front of him is an elementary tactic. Fuck, if you are involved in a situation involving conflict, dangling "dude, if you pull this off, you should TOTALLY get the Peace Prize" in front of him is a fucking no-brainer. He is incredibly manipulable. Sure, you have to be in a position where you have, or can present a path to, something he wants. I'm sure that if there was a state actor out there who had cloned Ivanka into a sex slave, they'd have a good play as well. But if you have or can help deliver something he wants (not for the greater good, or anything like that, mind you - remember, we're talking about a narcissist, so it's only about things he wants for himself), then you can fucking play him. And you'd be dumb not to.
  17. Personally, I love that Band of Racists, USA, feels like it has to run an "All American Halftime Show" as COUNTER-programming for a halftime show featuring.....an American. Gosh. The issue can't be that he's not an American. What, oh WHAT could it possibly be? But remember, Turning Point USA isn't racist, right @Enchubben?
  18. Oh, I don’t think there’s any argument at this point that Oklahoma is better-led than Texas. And Oklahoma is a fucking clown show.
  19. Sure. That would be another, different study. Which would give rates. Then compare rates. If I have a 1 in 1,000 chance of dying of disease X, and I have a 1 in 10,000 chance of dying of an adverse vaccine reaction (assuming arguendo that "death" is the primary adverse event in either case), then the math dictates the smarter choice.
  20. What you don't get is any risk comparison. Which, you know, is the relevant way to evaluate risk. What is your risk of contracting COVID and having a negative outcome, stairstepping up in levels of severity, if unvaccinated? What is your risk of an adverse vaccine reaction, stairstepping up in levels of severity? In other words, what is my illness risk reduction if vaccinated, and what is my adverse reaction risk increase if vaccinated - which is greater?
  21. You misstyped 400. America is not unique in this respect, but worse than most any other western country in the fact that one of the biggest impediment to voting in a woman is....women voters. American women voters reliably shit on American female candidates.
  22. Another reminder: recent polling indicates that Republican voters trust RFK Jr on medical matters more than....they trust their own doctors. The fucking singularity of idiocy that we live within....goddamn.
  23. Guys…I’m pretty shook. I was just going through some pics, and I realized…a family member of mine is mixed up in all this antifa business. For fuck’s sake, he’s even seen wearing antifa gear: Goddamn? What are we gonna do? This is a real stain on our family. My own grandfather....in antifa....the fucking shame.
  24. I mean, the dude was born with a porn name, what did you expect?
  25. In that chart, Popeyes is like late 80s/early 90s University of Miami: reckless, lawless, and cruising to the title because ain't nobody gonna stop 'em.
