  1. No shit. He's totally that kid that makes up shit that never happened because he thinks it makes him sound cooler or more interesting. He can't just be in car accident... he has to be left for dead by his best friend. He can't just be invited to parties inside the beltway... he has to be invited to orgies inside the beltway. Fucking pathetic.
  2. I'm right there with you. Best thing I did was 2 years ago (Spring Break before everything shut down), I took my then 14 yo son took Guadalupe Mountain NP. I told him the point was to get to the tallest point in Texas, but it was actually to have some uninterrupted time with him (cell phone service is nonexistant). Had 10 hours to talk about anything and everything. Got to tell him how happy I was with the way he was growing up, but I also got to share how different it was for me. Something about the combination of being away from everything and being tired from the hike made it resonant with him. Sometimes he still forgets how good he has it, but that day was a total win for dad. Plus we got a great hike with a great view. Top 5 day.
  3. I would also add "and you have to rely on the electoral college to get your guy elected president".
  4. On the other end of the Rush spectrum, I think about Neil Peart almost daily.
  5. These are the same people that point to Starbucks as the reason millennials can't afford to buy a house.
  6. I usually only think of RL because I'm remembering that my worst day on earth is still better than his best day in Hell... it's a way that I count my blessings. But I did think this was an interesting take.
  7. Very little to lose either.
  8. So I says to him, I says, "What am I, a Democrat?"
  9. Considering how other illnesses (flu, RSV) dropped with the implementation of masks, I don't know why ICUs wouldn't make the changes permanent. No mask, no entry (including staff). Temp checks. No underage siblings in a NICU.
  10. Well, he clearly stated that he "wanted a debate". That makes everything okay. It's like saying "with all due respect" or "I'm not racist, but".
  11. I have no doubt that your mother would also be a better senator than this lady.
  12. Hey, that's 50th US Vice President Alina Habba they're taking about. Show some respect.
  13. Yeah, I was on a flight the other day. Flight attendant came over thre mic and said something to the effect of "You need to wear your mask. Having a drink on your tray doesn't count as actively drinking or eating." We all laughed because everyone knew the shithead they were taking about.
  14. Like everything Trump ever said, it would be different if he simply added "... and we should do better." I think you may agree with his words, but I doubt you agree with his sentiment. He wasn't actually trying to solve the problem of Putin killing innocent people, he was trying to justify it. It's one of the things that makes both siderism ring hollow.
  15. Don't forget the full-on attack on the Capitol egged on by many of the politicians that would cry about this (and yes, voting not to certify electoral votes was egging on the insurrection). Until you are part of the solution to that problem, you don't get to bitch about anything Hunter Biden did.
  16. I'd say he's pretty much on brand with most of the GOP these days. They only disagree about Zelensky.
  17. "Yeah, but if we stop drilling holes it'll put the hole drillers out of work."
  18. Everything about that is peak MAGA. From the overconfident "pumpkin", to the ignorant "commander and chief", to the misused "your". These people are wet farts in 3 day old underwear.
  19. Wait is he on another fucking sock? I sett that he's not denying. Goddammit.
  20. Both my fucking knees are shot. I'm fat as fuck. I can barely bend my knees. Walking fucking sucks. Fuck stairs. My doctor told me to find an ortho and he'd give the referral, but I don't have a clue about these people. I'd just be picking a name off a website. Figured I'd ask y'all.
  21. Well I cannot think of anything closer to libertarianism in the real-world than Russia (maybe Somalia). So yeah, I guess libertarians did do this.
  22. Well, she didn't exist until 1989 either, but we still let her spew her bullshit every chance she gets. Or does only being 32 years old give other people license to kick the shit out of her for no damn reason?
  23. He may or may not know, but I can assure you he doesn't care.
  24. Almost as clueless as someone complaining about liberals' influence in Texas politics, but there's Sid Miller, and Ken Paxton, and Dan Patrick, and Greg Abbott, blaming every one of our ills on liberal policies. I get what you're saying, but the asshats claiming to be "libertarian-leaners" have more sway than you're giving them credit for.
