  1. Surprised we got that call.
  2. Incomplete. It touched the ground. Garbage.
  3. HOW DO YOU MSIS THAT???
  4. Well…I gotta pee. Blindfold me and spin me around, I’ll still have a better chance of hitting the target than Arch.
  5. 89 yards of offense. Jesus. That’s beyond terrible. It’s Arch-terrible.
  6. Bottom line, right now someone is getting ass-raped without consent (longhorns), and isn’t that really the story of this era?
  7. Fuck, we don’t look better than GLORIA Vanderbilt.
  8. I dunno guys. Maybe with some extra practice sessions, some dialed up coaching, and some real discipline, we might be able to improve enough to be just regular-shitty.
  9. Arch seems to have my accuracy and @Macanudo ‘s pocket presence. And our special teams joins the short bus club. Jesus.
  10. Pretty sure they’re in Trump tower?
  11. In our current social construct, anything other than oligarchical full-regulatory-capture “capitalism” is decried as pure Das Kapital Marxism….even though functionally every other western economy is much less oligarchical than ours…well, it’s perfection.
  12. I do love this era where “holding people accountable for being intergalactic dickheads” is “SOCIALISM!” It’s not socialism to call a fucking asshole a fucking asshole. And Ryan Adams is just a fucking asshole. I mean, I guess it DOES say something that “being a fucking asshole” is identified with a particular political identity. So there’s that.
  13. “Loneliness is listening to other people fuck at a Hampton Inn.” An all-time great turn of phrase.
  14. Fucking…seriously. That would be awesome. They don’t get no more “REAL AMERICAN” than the DMs…and they would make MAGA heads ‘splode. Goddamn I love those guys.
  15. Brutal attacks on our freedom and liberty and the core values of the Republic? Well, I’m not a big fan of those things. I mean, still, Trump has my support because there was a trans vollyball player once, but he could slightly temper his approach on the freedoms and stuff. The people and institutions being subjected to stripping core freedoms, first amendment rights and such, stand up and resist in the slightest? See, both sides do it! It’s not just disingenuous, it’s evil. It’s the equivalent of seeing a Jew struggle to break free from a beating by the Gestapo, and saying “see, if the Jews weren’t so lawless, this wouldn’t be happening.”
  16. Why? You want to see a bunch of MAGA supporters get an wrection that last longer than four hours? Handcuffed toddlers (almost certainly US citizens) IS THE FUCKING POINT. It’s torture porn, cruelty porn, and every single one of them furiously masturbates to it. But they’re not racist in the slightest, right [mention=620]Enchubben[/mention] ?
  17. They are - and it has always been intended that they would be - Trump's combination secret police and private army. Super-easy way around Posse Comitatus (forbidding the use of the military for domestic law enforcement): create a new military force that isn't "technically" a military force. They have all the toys, equipment, and trappings of the military, but (1) are not actually a military branch, and (2) do not even have the rules of engagement or UCMJ that restrains the military when it IS operating where it can. Trump created his own Stasi, and his own fully militarized Gestapo -- literally EVERYTHING every "libertarian" and "the 2nd amendment is sacred because it protects us against an oppressive governement!" type has been freaking out about for decades....and now, from that exact crowd, not even crickets chirping. Nope, instead, gleeful, masturbatory fervor, ENJOYING watching a new branch of the military be deployed in combat action on American soil. Remember, because this is important: if you ever talk to a libertarian or "second amendment fan," they are liars. Every single one of them. They never cared, at all, about the shit they said was the greatest danger to the Republic. The hell of it is, THEY WERE FUCKING RIGHT. They just don't have the integrity or balls to live up to those principles....because they never actually believed in them.
  18. This is the conservative way. “Sure, maybe what Trump did is bad. But you know what’s WAY worse? Anyone fighting back.” It’s a time-honored approach to delegitimizing all opposition to the authoritarian. And that’s exactly why it’s being advanced in this thread.
  19. My wife LOVES Warren. Like, has the sign and the t shirt. My wife also has three degrees and is very smart. ANY Dem appealing to her is preaching to the choir. We don’t need to be speaking to her. We need to be speaking to the Hispanic males in the Calley who didn’t just turn towards Trump, they did so AGAINST THEIR INTERESTS. Trump sold macho bullshit and told blatant - but sweet - lies about how brilliant the economy would be under him, and how everything bad that has ever happened is due to Biden. Dems have to tell counter-lies (oversell what you can do on the economy, and WAY oversell how much Trump shit hurts, which is an easy sell). And run a man, who can sell man stuff. Because not only do men want a manly man…a lot of women do too (the demographic in this country LEAST likely to ever vote for a woman is a set of women, actually). On the shutdown, sell how the republicans are making your healthcare costs go up RIGHT NOW, to make billionaires rich. We’re just going to stand here until they fix what they’ve broken.
  20. QF emphasis. And if you want to know the biggest thing I criticize Biden about, it's that -- he was a chief architect and proponent of it (Senator from Delaware, bitch-boy for the financial services folks). The bankruptcy reform bill was and remains utter fuckery.
  21. What everyone needs to realize - universities, businesses, EVERYONE -- is that when "plata o plomo" is on the table (and that's absolutely what this, and all of the administration's garbage, is -- either appease us and be favored by us, or do not appease us and be punished)....you have a choice of HOW and maybe WHEN you will suffer, but not IF you will suffer. Defy the admin? Suffer now. BUT, maintain your integrity going forward. Appease the admin? Suffer more, later. Because now, THEY OWN YOU. And you are beholden to them. So the next demand they make . . . you won't even be in the position to defy/turn it down. You just have to keep bowing, and keep bending, lower and lower, until you are belly crawling for their amusement. Accept that there is no current "winning" move. But there is a move that sets you up to lose less. And that move is never, ever appeasement.
  22. Good memory, dude. It remains our only major "travel crime" incident. And now that the boy has multiple Ukrainian friends, that story gets told at one point or another, and every last one of them is mortified and apologetic. One "upside" that may come from this is the purposeful and deliberate accelerating rejection of Russian culture (which is one of pure corruption and crime) and a turn towards more western norms of the rule of law. The young generation very much wants to show the world "we're not all Russian-controlled corrupt bandits," and are going out of their way to make that distinction obvious. TLDR; nothing will make you turn away from a culture faster than that culture invading and bombing your country.
  23. You mean like the constant screeching of "we're seeing crime at levels no one has ever seen before!" in cities where....the crime right is and has been steadily DECLINING? You know, just to pluck an example out of the air at random.
