  1. great so Florida voters can legalize weed and abortion, and then keep electing the same dipshits that made those things illegal in the first place.
  2. The Sacre Coeur Basilica in Paris is cool. So are the catacombs. But lots of tourists at both. Nice views from the top of the Sacre Coeur, as well as from the front entrance.
  3. Teri Lynn Roberson, couldn’t care less about the business fundamentals. Roberson, 52, from the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex in Texas, said she purchased five shares of Trump Media at about $72 a pop, right around the stock price’s Monday peak, to show her support for the former president. “It’s mainly to support Trump and his legal battles,” she said. jfc
  4. I live in an area where there is considerable ranching, so lots of ranch trucks pulling cattle or horses or loads of hay, which is fine. Just no reason to idle when you are parked three feet from somebody. But yeah, it didn't look like it was being used on the ranch much.
  5. So if Mrs. Struck had aerated this asshole, she walks, right?
  6. nah, they would have told him if they were.
  7. Some years ago I watched a young dumb dude fill up a plastic Big Gulp cup with gas. Chick had to hold the cup while he filled it so it wouldn't tip over and spill. I asked him what the fuck he was doing, and apparently the chick's car had run out gas a few miles down the road. I just shook my head and said "I hope y'all don't die in a fire."
  8. Sitting at Sonic last night with my daughter after her track meet. Enjoying my small oreo blast while she ravenously devours her cheeseburger. Nice night, windows open, talking about her races, until douchebag in his pristine F-350 parks next to us and leaves his diesel idling while he orders and eats. 1) Now we are breathing diesel exhaust while we eat, so I have to roll up the windows which means I have to turn on the engine so we don't suffocate. 2) Idling diesel engine is so loud you can't have a conversation, even with the windows up.
  9. maybe gives schools an excuse to have a day off they don't have to make up at the end of the year?
  10. Rio Grande Gorge bridge near Taos: (walked across this one) HW 90 bridge over Pecos River: (biked across this one)
  11. You want those bridges to shake a little. Shake so that they are less likely to break when shaken by an earthquake.
  12. A rapist, a bible salesman, a shoe salesman, and a bankrupt businessman walk into a bar. Bartender says "What can I get for ya, Donnie?"
  13. more like "waddle for your life" amirite? this would be my choice for a soundtrack:
  14. Has there ever been a more appropriate post for a rage rep?
  15. Auggie: I'm out, I'm in, no wait I'm out again. I got one more episode. If it doesn't blow me away, I'm probably out for good.
  16. I'm not sure which actress you are referring to, and I agree.
  17. I'll call my teen daughter, and she'll immediately text me with a "what's up". Infuriating. /old man rant over
  18. was that in book 1? If so, I don't remember it, but it was a long time ago. (I didn't read the other two)
  19. Goddamn, the old man bitching on this thread is spectacular.
  20. Truth. I was pounding the gin and tonics when I rode the chunnel.
  21. I have two eps left, and I'm feeling a little meh, but I'll finish the season off. I did read the first book many years ago, and vaguely remember some of it. Favorite part of the book was the computer made up of millions of soldiers holding flags. I was hoping the adaptation would go into that in detail, but it makes sense they wouldn't spend too much time on it. Slicing and dicing the ship was dumb. Was that in the book?
