  1. Wisconsinites take drinking very seriously. It's a significant part of their culture. The thing I question most is Clark County, Nevada. Here’s a map from a different data source.
  2. Visually speaking, it looks like if you take away 20 IQ points from Patrick Swayze, he turns into Don Swayze, and if you then take 20 IQ points away from Don, he turns into Theo Von.
  3. Can someone please provide me with the link to a short essay that was posted here within the last couple of months? I can't remember enough of it to effectively search for it. It was written as a letter from a father to his son from some time in the future, and the father explains how in hindsight, he was too busy to notice and/or didn't give much credence to the slow creep of fascism when it was happening, and how it never feels as apparent in the moment as we assume it must have to people in past instances for whom we have the benefit of hindsight to judge their actions. The letter also goes on to give advice about some friend and/or sexual partner who is fleeing persecution or some such thing, taking care to only refer to them by initials, lest the letter get intercepted by the bad guys. Little help?
  4. Man, can you imagine doing 75 in that? What an experience that must have been.
  5. Yeah, all of this is either confusing or wholly defies both credibility and reality. Plot twists and machinations are one thing, but all this is just frustrating writing and/or atrocious editing. While this show is leagues better than The Killing, it also features Mireille Enos. Perhaps she's some kind of supernatural entity that destroys coherent plotlines.
  6. I believe he was also in a commercial for Chee-Zits.
  7. It's also Biden's fault for letting him win the first time. If he hadn't stepped out of the way to make room for the only person in the entire goddamn world who could have lost that election to Donald Trump, we'd all be living in Shangri-La right now.
  8. Aren't you an architect or similar?! Also, today is October 2nd.
  9. And the really fun part is that it all needs to happen fast enough that it meaningfully alters the landscape before next year's midterms...which also presumes that they're held, and held fairly - neither one a guarantee these days. I feel like if shit doesn't get dramatically worse for everyone by next summer, then too many swingable voters will still be content enough with the status quo, and the people with status and opportunity to affect real change will still have too much to personally lose by sticking their necks out.
  10. That line caught my attention as well.
  11. I'm very sorry to hear about your remarkable string of bad luck misapplying both ketchup and mustard to your hotdogs at every single game left on the calendar.
  12. Am I the only one who fully expected the honey badger to come back for more?
  13. Good for David Cross. Edit - shit, not sure why I put this in this thread...
  14. I believe you in this case.
  15. I really enjoy motorsports, including NASCAR, but I haven't been able to give much of a shit about it this season, all due to various aspects of Trumpery. I get a weekly email from them asking about my thoughts on the previous weekend's races, and I told them to fuck off for good in the first survey post-Kirk. Amusingly enough, they also got a bunch of grief from the MAGA types for not airing the pre-race moment of silence. I knew that I'm not NASCAR's target demographic, but I just don't care to set my differences aside with those people any longer, even though we have enjoyment of motorsports in common. Fuck them in the goatass.
  16. And judging by the commercials, you're quite a dancer, too!
  17. Jesus Christ II: Again With This Guy???
  18. His password is somehow based on his ranking system and is therefore impossible to remember, making it functionally unrecoverable.
  19. Golf fight videos now make much more sense.
  20. I gave up golf once I realized that I didn't care to spend the time or money necessary to get to the skill level where I wouldn't hate it, and that was way back before Bluetooth was a thing, but do courses really allow this shit?
  21. You eat at Chipotle recently?
  22. Tactical parking.
  23. Yeah, that bugs me too.
