  1. Yeah, but I think Camacho was assigned the position. That populace would have elected Hormel Chavez, star of Ow My Balls, instead. And lets not pretend that Ow My Balls wouldn't be a huge hit right now either. The Iraq War was a waste of life and treasure, but it is small potatoes compared to what Trump has been doing to our domestic agencies.
  2. Trump is far worse than W as head of government. He is probably setting an unbreakable record. There will never be a worse President than him even though there will eventually be a President who presides over our dissolution. Whoever that President may be, he/she will be better than Trump. In Idiocracy, Camacho rolled out the red carpet for the smartest man in the world. Trump would have had him killed.
  3. So lets say those were the two OPs. How do you post anything at all about them without it being political. Those 2 things happened. Ok, done. Any responses to them after that are necessarily political. May as well just have a news posting board with no comments allowed. You could call it the Drudge Report.
  4. His name is dropout. Not like he didn't warn you.
  5. The insured businesses will make money. Especially since sales have been anemic for most stores and other stores haven't been able to open at all. That being said, I don't think there have been many, if any, insurance fraud fires during this. I am just pointing out that a large percentage of businesses were not going to survive covid. The owners of insured burned down businesses in that situation will get some walking away money.
  6. For one thing, Biden already openly promised it will be a female VP. For another, we only need one 80 year old on the ticket.
  7. New ones are better. Just need to get rid of the shoulder pads.
  8. When Trump finally gets arrested, I hope he "resists".
  9. For sites like surly, can't that be solved by hosting sites offshore? Or will a great firewall of America also come into play? Attacking Twitter and Facebook is a bad move for Trump. His voters are technological ground sloths who are the last to move to new platforms. He needs to feed them disinformation where they already are.
  10. Where are you getting the pneumonia deaths data from?
  11. Yeah, we are too lazy and afraid to break up, but also too lazy to put in the work to make the relationship work. The USA is that couple that spends 10 years in a loveless relationship when it shouldn't have lasted past 6 months. Instead, we stay together and continue fighting with each other in the mall. She is screaming and crying. He is embarrassed, but doesn't really give a fuck about her feelings. We'll be back next week to do it again.
  12. Not sure anyone has the ability to pull it off. There are plenty of true believers, but they come across as complete assholes that are unliked by even other true believers. There are plenty of incompetent people out there too, but they aren't capable of picking up the "Trump" message. Trump is a perfect storm. Nobody else can go up on stage, bumble through the delivery of a white nationalist message while glorifying himself in every sentence and still get applauded.
  13. They don't know how to be anything else at this point. They are probably the type that will be dead a week after they retire whether they retired 10 years ago, now, or 10 years from now. Reminds me of many emeritus partners at law firms.
  14. What's he trying to say? Yay China! OMG, Its China! God damn you all to hell China!
  15. Since its a PG question, the rest of the team matters. Blind, I go: Stockton, Payton, Kidd, Paul, Nash But I'm assuming my team has 2 better scorers than my PG. If I need my PG to shoulder some or all of the scoring load: Paul, Payton, Nash, Stockton, Kidd
  16. Maybe he will jump on Chinese owned Tik Tok.
  17. Huh? You do realize that victims already sue and win against cities because of LEO actions, right? That is a direct taxpayer/insurance money payout with no hit at all to police. PD retirement funds are largely funded as part of their compensation package.
  18. My humor was out of place as well. The LE problem has always been fixable, but the answer is always political. But a few things can solve this. First, police are supposed to be part of and from the community they police. Beat cops should live in the area they patrol. And they should be out every day talking to law abiding citizens on the street and in businesses. Everyone should know them and they should know everyone. Undercovers should be from elsewhere, but they should be there to police the uniformed police as much as the populace. Second, police need to be on the hook financially for their actions. Victims sue the city instead. Cops are entirely untouched financially. If retirement funds are hit instead, all the good cops will start talking in an instant. Third, we simply need a better and faster way to fire clearly bad government employees. Conservatives should love that since we should also use it for bad teachers and bureaucrats as well. Fourth, the cop allegedly committed murder. Any civilian would be in jail already awaiting charges. And had he been arrested already, we would have no riots. Yet. Also, its Roadhouse.
  19. Scarface? Nope. Lol. Maybe the same rough plotline though. Look at who I quoted.
  20. This man knows. People can get beat up in bar fights, or get murdered. Alcohol shipments can be destroyed. Businesses burned down. Businesses getting run through by monster trucks. Cops don't even show up until the boss gets killed in his mansion.
  21. Or when he mailed in his ballot to Florida, a state that he has never legally resided in and which he can choose as a residence only because of his current employment status.
  22. You're talking about an industry that employs 1 million people. It insists upon itself now. Between that, the military industrial complex, and other players, a good 3/4 of our "free" economy is either monopolistic or rent seeking.
  23. Maybe last week. Now he knows he doesn't have to pretend. His base loves it.
  24. There are always cases that fall outside of scientific and medical expectations. Some people just have a higher tolerance. Alcohol abuse kills most, but "pickles" a few. Drugs-Keith Richards. Fast food-Donald Trump. Both should have been dead decades ago, but instead they will outlive us all.
  25. The saddest thing is that in our wealthy and plentiful world, malnutrition is a constant number 2 cause of death.
