  1. I rattle off TWO that aren't, and that's the best comeback you've got? Fucking weak. Boo fucking hoo, cuck.
  2. For some odd coincidence, i have the cell phone/office number of two billionaires in my business contacts. One of them I haven't met more than once in person and can't base a fair opinion on. The other is notorious for being very friendly, known for his philanthropy and has built a very successful business (no shit). He seems quite the opposite of a loathsome human. My great-uncle reached billionaire status shortly before he died, somewhere in his mid 90's I think. He had more redeeming qualities than one could keep track of. He was known and friends with world leaders. His philanthropy reached levels that I didn't even hear about. His surviving son and daughter did not receive more than a pittance of an inheritance, as he donated almost all of his wealth to churches, Universities (both academic and athletic scholarships in the dozens) as well as writing over his vast art collection to galleries and as property of the State that he resided. Even in my group of friends, they all would say that he was one of the most humble and entertaining people that they'd ever met. And upon his death, I simply inherited a shotgun and a small, token amount of Indian turquoise jewelry that I had an appreciation for their craftsmanship. Not ALL billionaires are fucking treacherous scum as you say.
  3. Nope, citizens that don't line up with your politics don't want people to suffer. You're just being obtuse. They're tired of the can being kicked down the road, again, and hoping that something can be done to lessen the blow when the bill is due. You seem to be rather easily swayed by the MSM talking points, yourself, I think. MSNBC/FOX NEWS, they're on opposite ends of the same rope, meant to stir up frenzies. A majority of the population doesn't give a flying fuck about what they talk about and browbeat. That's the part of the population you're painting with a firehose, not just a broad brush.
  4. This reads as if it's from someone that's never been in a fist fight before.....but, go for it.
  5. One thing is for damned sure - Lumon is WAAAYYYYY behind on following child labor laws 🙂. "Miss" Huang should be at the Jr High sitting in her Social Studies class, not working on the Severed floor....
  6. the only other reason to doubt it being that it's 45,000 % bullshit, nope, no reason to doubt it. And this is in no way an indictment of me being pro-Russian. It's simply not believing one god damned silly as fuck thing that Russia ever says.
  7. I've been told that only ultra-right knuckedraggers believe these dumb as fuck conspiracies...
  8. Crazy, sure. SA survivor, maybe.... It's almost like all of you silly hypocrites didn't REALLY stand behind your "believe all women" mantra....
  9. I think we can all agree that Bert should be walking his goofy haired-ass back to the hotel and given the silent treatment for the rest of his mediocre career.
  10. The only way someone should be afraid of that fat tub of shit is if he threatened to sit on them
  11. The American Communist Party was founded in 1919 by leftists. Does that make Communism more acceptable?
  12. That didn't take long to affirm my stance.
  13. I'm conservative. My wife is Jewish, and conservative. Conflating all conservatives as Nazis and garbage too out any chance of me coming to the table in the sake of Truce.
  14. Jim Breuer supports the last 15 posts for taking the heat off of his “acting” chops 🙂
  15. I can hardly work in MS Paint. But, my wife is a professional graphic editor. I showed her some of the commitment edits Fawcett does, and she LOL'd over them. Said it couldn't take 10 minutes to work one up better than his best work. Considering that she still has no idea in the difference b/t OL and DL, I doubt she's interested in stealing his business model. Plus, her Instagram page has about 10 connections, so ON3 may not be dropping bags of $ at our door....
  16. the goal of AI should be to aide humanity, not to convince it to turn into Skynet, bud....
  17. I wonder how that Saban mystique is going to shine after Sarkisian modholes him, again, this season down in Houston in 3 weeks...
  18. Even my fraternity "song" isn't as embarrassing as that fight song. And the fraternity song was 3 degrees past nauseating...
  19. It’s like none of these portal kids in sheepville ever learned that the real money is in the sunflower seed game….
  20. Wait a gosh darn minute.... Grandy's is still in business? And their website says there's one about 4 blocks from my office (walking distance, albeit head on a swivel) in downtown Dallas? Ewers talk is good. But, now I've got to go get some of those biscuits. The last Grandy's I ate at was in Weatherford, off of I-20, at least 25 years ago.
  21. If they fire James Fisher, would there be anyone here willing to help the Surly crowd claim that sweet, sweet "National Champions 2***" trophy they gave him when he arrived in Gomerville the first time? I'd be willing to go in for Tree Fiddy...
  22. Umpiring in the next 3 games is going to make this crew blush with their rigged calls
  23. Nice defense, Pete
