  1. more manufacturing, now a leftwing platitude.
  2. somewhere, sam houston is shedding a tear
  3. just in case you'd like to fly to an active war zone next year: https://caribbean.loopnews.com/content/united-airlines-plans-fly-guyana-2024
  4. you think the germans let the brits design anything important in that car? the funniest part of the auto industry consolidation in the late 1990s was VW and BMW getting into a bidding war over rolls royce and neither of them did due diligence as to who actually owned the trademark.
  5. i'd think investors are far more likely to consider strategic defaults than owner-occupied. as to low-wage workers: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/fast-food-inflation-2023-why-it-is-high-mcdonalds-prices/
  6. iirc wingstop wings are a bit smaller than pluckers wings, but i also didn't say i ate them all in one sitting. usually eat 7-9 of them, save the rest and some fries for the next day or so.
  7. you forgot the two motherpluckers. bw3 is terrible and only useful for passing time when you're getting your tires rotated at the costco in greenway plaza. wingstop is pretty decent takeout wings (5 atomic 5 cajun 5 lemon pepper, fries cajun seasoned, blue cheese dressing and a raspberry vanilla coke from the freestyle). pluckers was pretty good when it first came to houston but as the years have passed it seems to have just ratcheted downhill. partly i blame the weird service system where your waiter isn't the person responsible for getting the food on the table, and who basically isn't empowered to do anything or make sure anything is right because god forbid someone go to the back and get a dressing without it getting into the POS. also last time i was there it was like $60 for dinner for me. two motherpluckers will do that.
  8. @BabaYaga doing work https://www.businessinsider.com/ukraine-says-russian-troops-call-nightmare-vampire-drone-baba-yaga-2023-11
  9. Bump. Looking central. Woodrow's midtown sounds packed

    Pizza

    Good to very good.
  11. add in the 1 in 20 with ebay headlights that were never aligned properly
  12. Got the car inspected the other day. Dude tells me my gas cap won't attach to the test machine, and so sells me a new one, AutoZone brand. Fine. Next commute the check engine light comes on. I pull the code and Google it - evap. Usual cause - gas cap issue. Look up the new cap part number on AutoZone - does not fit my car. Had no idea those things weren't universal.
  13. Yeah but a quarter pounder with cheese is $15.23! Trying to fill an entire formal dining room at the white house would now cost as much as an F-35!
  14. venezuela is already in bed with china so not sure that would work out well for guyana:
  15. *claims to hate people on the dole, supports policies that demonstrably result in more people on the dole*
  16. the prior regime was the inability to instant abort your one nighter. the current regime is the inability to abort your certain to be DOA brain-outside of skull failed pregnancy which is going to threaten your life and fuck up your ability to become pregnant ever again. a 3x higher maternal death rate than in states without such draconian laws is such a thing to be proud of. but i know, i know, you can't have a good faith discussion in CR with penelope negging you constantly.
