  1. SIAP... There are a lot of season summaries on YouTube. Any recommendations regarding the best one? My plan is to watch the summary and then the last two episodes of season 1 (as previously mentioned)

  3. Really enjoyed the movie.... I've been thinking about elements of it for the entire day (just watched it last night). I described it to someone today as an Amazing, A+, hour and forty five minute movie with about 35 minutes of several other good (but lesser) movies interspersed throughout. Those other elements/scenes were good, and may have been a part of a really great movies too, but they felt out of place within this larger story. Amazing soundtrack. Best movie I've seen this year. But could have been tighter/better.
  4. "I know you have not been feeling great but it's good to see you in better health" Just another fantastic observation, JD.
  5. SCOTUS- "The President cannot be indicted for anything he does while he's the President" Also SCOTUS- "He hasn't brought back the person we said he had to. Why isn't the President following our directives?"
  6. Good point there. After all, he was the walrus. I could be the walrus. I'd still have to bum rides off people.
  7. Chicken? That's a cock.
  8. Ah! So that's how she gets those hot buns...
  9. Surely there's a foreign nation that would be glad to receive these scofflaws
  10. That looks amazing... We've got a great place for "Nashville hot" level sammiches here in Seattle. I'm just as surprised as you are. Sisters and Brothers
  11. Automatic rep for StrongBad
  12. That's gotta be great for military recruiting... "Hey, don't get captured. Once you're under the sovereign, domestic authority of another country, we've got nothing" Hashtag Leave Some Men Behind
  13. Is a trade war the same as a land war? Asking for Vizzini
  14. Gotcha... Sorry for the confusion. I copied and replied to your post since that was what spurred my questions. I figured the Surly hivemind would have the insight. This whole thing is beyond stupid... "Elect an asshole, expect a lot of shit" I guess
  15. Sorry if these are stupid questions... If something was ordered and paid for from China in mid March, but hasn't shipped yet, what is the tarrifs on it (and when would that be calculated)? Is it the tarrif rate at time of purchase? At time of shipping? At time of receipt at the port? And if the rates keep fluctuating, would someone be able to leave a product at the port until the rates dropped again before picking it up (and paying the new rate)? Another question... Is there a price threshold for tarrifs? It looks like the de minimus rate of $800 goes away on May 2... So small ticket items received (? Shipped?) by then wouldn't have the tarrif applied?
  16. Nothing but feculence from SCOTUS lately...
  17. Looks like they took the cover for that floor vent.... (although it makes it easier to clean the floor by sweeping it into the hole)
  18. Well, at least now I can go back to my long-held practice of not giving a damn for the whole state of Michigan.
  19. Had this happen enough to flinch when I read that. Wife has worked for in K-6 for about 12 years. I try to go to a school in the district once a year and just pay off some kid's (or family's) lunch debt. 'Cause man... Growing up is hard enough these days
  20. We had "ham salad" from the local grocery store... Discovered later that it was ground bologna and mayo/relish. Mine were from older kids in our church... Can still remember the shame of wearing my nicest outfit for Easter Sunday only to remember who'd worn it the previous year
  21. Interesting day in my area... A local protest was 'hosted' by Rick Steves (the PBS travel guy), whose office is in the nearby town. He's in purple shirt with the megaphone here. He talked about being in Istanbul this past week and how the Turkish government had shifted to a dictatorship from a democracy... And described the ways the US was following the same path. He also joked about this protest being a pledge drive for PBS... Which was hilarious, and was part of his description around governments taking over legacy media.
  22. I've thought for a while that citizens should have surrounded and blocked entry to the offices DOGE was targeting, led by Democratic congress persons. But instead, we got politicians showing up to ask questions, being told to leave by rent a cops, and leaving.
  23. You know, we could trap him in there if we hand him a lob wedge and tell him he's the only one who can get this fried egg onto the green.
