  1. I don’t really agree with FEMA camps, unless you use them to arrest and house those people indefinitely.
  2. The Irish should be honorary native Americans. Time after time, when the opportunity to unite and destroy the invader presented itself, they thought a second - and immediately attacked each other’s clan/tribe.
  3. if you want proof that the entire drone thing is bullshit, I just saw an article where Joe Rogan is very concerned about the drones
  4. #s 1, 2, 4, 6, 7 SEC, SEC I have never seen that shit in my lifetime at any point in a season. And I’m not young. What’s the conference games and losses start, universe normality will be restored.
  5. Then how do you explain why the four biggest drones are shaped like horses, Mr. Smart Guy?
  6. The Irish are also pretty good at celebrating wins and losses that happened many hundreds of years ago.
  7. You should call her and thank her for that. Fantastic that you traveled to where you are now.
  8. What what happened at the end? I did not see it. Did it just mean more?
  9. Man, I read a lot of hype about why the 8-1 Sun Devils should be a real challenge for us today. Not so much. 17 point Gata win.
  10. I hear that a Senate seat might be opening on Barsoom.
  11. Future generations will watch John Connor fighting the machines and Terminators and say, “Bullshit!! There are no drones in that movie…”
  12. We’ll, yeah. That would be illegal Contempt of Oligarch.
  13. Just because ice cream is cold, and the Arctic is cold , does not mean that you have to bring Eskimo hut into the conversation.
  14. My Swedish immigrant grandmother did not like overweight people. ”Tjocka stora menighet!” is one of the few Swedish phrases I know. She would shake her head and glare while saying it. “Thick large people…”
  15. which shows how much I fast food
  16. I assume that is an assassin sent by Burger King
  17. well, I’m sure you use your black hand occasionally too.
  18. I agree with all of that. I had a bankruptcy hearing this morning, trying to get a judge to approve the settlement of a case where my client filed a chapter 13 while their lawsuit was going on, which effectively made the bankruptcy trustee the client instead of….the client. You have to ask the court to appoint you as special counsel to represent the estate, and judges don’t like to give you your contractual 40% fee unless you have extraordinary circumstances. They want to (shock) give them money to creditors instead. Things were not going well until I mentioned I had been posting on Shaggy and Surly for over a decade, but hadn’t been banned yet. BANG! 40% approved!
  19. Let’s use another example: The famous Ford Pinto case involved Ford executives looking at the cost of making pintos gas tanks that would not explode versus the cost of the occasional judgment when it blew up and fricasseed a family. Do the execs deserve to die? That is a moral question as well as a legal question. Legally, there is no death penalty for that. I guess it might fit somewhere in the negligent homicide category, which is not a death penalty crime. Now, morally, would I shed a tear if someone whose family died in a Ford Pinto gas tank fire had shot one of those assholes? No I would not. So with all due respect, I think you are conflating the issues somewhat and turning our absence of moral reprehension upon learning of their deaths into a mistaken belief that we want people to shoot and kill those assholes. We are not saying folks should, we are just saying it’s understandable if people do, as it sounds like a resolution that is chock full of wonderful karma from a non-legal standpoint.
  20. What if it’s an alien civilization that powers their planet by mining garbage they then turn into fuel? We produce a LOT of garbage - so that makes our planet a valuable resource. But…. what if the only thing that stops the aliens is warm temperature? That would mean that global warming is just the illuminati creating a weather shield around the planet to protect our garbage.
