  1. Idk, but I fucking love back up cameras. If you live somewhere with a lot of parallel parking, they are money.
  2. Virtually any modern truck would reduce my fuckability in my wife's eyes. OTOH, if I rolled up in vintage 80s long bed F-150...
  3. Brevity is the soul of wit.
  4. He has cancer, which he know when he ran for the Ranking Member slot, but now he's citing as a reason to step down. I've said it once, and I will say it over and over and over: The Democrats slavish allegiance to seniority in committee chairs and committee leadership slots is doing real damage to the party. By blocking younger membes from achieving leadership positions, the party stagnates. The Republicans give their chairs and ranking members a combined 6 years, with a rare waiver for 2 more years. Members who term limit out of committee leadership positions tend to retire rather than become back benchers. That allows younger local politicians to move up to the federal level. Rising elected members can develop new fundraising and state wide profiles. Changes in leadership staff force turn over on K street. John Conyers was ranking member or chair of Judiciary from 1995 through 2017. During that period of time, the GOP had FIVE different leaders.
  5. As an aside, I'm kinda embarrassed that I enoyed Get Him to the Greek. Like half the cast has been cancelled. And there's a prominent Diddy cameo?
  6. Navarro must have gotten to him again+He had a few green market days last week= he’s back on his tariff horse. It’ll take another big red dip before Bessent can talk some sense into him. It’s basically been like this since 1/20.
  7. The President popping off only makes everything worse. Now it’s potentially political. I guess some team could do him like the Mets and Tebow and just milk it for shirt sales.
  8. I’d argue that if Milroe is willing to do more than play QB, he potentially has substantially more value Sanders as a wildcat/rb/h back Swiss Army knife (ala Taysom Hill), especially if you are going to wear him out and not worry about a second contract as a mid round pick. If I was going to take a flyer on Sanders, I would definitely draft him in a late round so his salary slots and you don’t have to deal with the clown show that will be Deon trying to milk the UDFA process for clicks.
  9. As an aside, I used to work in sustainability, and it's well known that single bin recycling is a total failure. It's essentially an extra garbage pick up. The only thing that people want is the aluminum, since it's cheaper to recycle than mine and process bauxite. When aluminum prices go up, it makes the bulk bundled recycling (which is mostly trash) more desireable, as there is more money to be made recoverying the aluminum versus the cost of sorting. How that interacts with our newly restrictive immigration policies, since a lot of recycling involves people just grabbing shit off the belt to clean the stream before it goes to the automated part of the sorting I can't say. Just somethign to think about.
  10. I sold the Pepsi I've had forever this year for this reason. My wife went on a GLP-1 and watching her make a face when I offered to pick up snacks during a road trip, when in past years she'd be like an 8 year old in a 7-11 with a $20 bill, was an eye opening moment.
  11. Este. I lived in Australia in 94, when a lot of the white SA were immigrating as apartheid fell. Every white SA is 3 beers away from saying racist things so vile it would make someone from South Carolina blush.
  12. Tell me more about these injection molded dildos.
