  1. Well Walmart and China together should eat the tariffs. That's mighty white of China to lose money for us for no reason.
  2. For some reason that's what we wanted, and certainly what we deserved.
  3. What is the 7 year old's thrill tolerance? That'll make a big difference in your goals.
  4. I saw where Giant Bomb is now fully independent. I don't know if there is enough of a market to service Jeff Gerstmann, Nextlander, and Giant Bomb but I hope they all make it.
  5. Yup, wasn't in the algorithm for them.
  6. I was walking along the Bosque with the wife and we came upon a lady and her kid who were watching a snake along the shore. Apparently, my tone was "assholeish" according to my wife when I corrected the lady that it was a water snake and not a cottonmouth. It wasn't my fault that I was trying to prevent her from corrupting the youth. I blame this thread.
  7. We're not Yankees but we're also Yankis Sounds like some kind of Aggie riddle.
  8. I remember reading about how Stalin personally censored some anti-Nazi books from being published in the USSR because he thought it would provoke Hitler (citation is Geoffrey Roberts' Stalin's Library, IIRC). That historiographical position is one where Stalin respected Hitler but deeply misunderstood him and thought that he would respond to literature like Stalin presumably would have based upon his insatiable reading habit. I'm not enough of a Stalinist to know if that's a popular position in the academic community.
  9. Did you know that he also sometimes posts in Spanish? I don't think there are even any Catholic Spanish speakers. I'm gonna have to head on up to West for some kolaches and some real talk on the horrors of this new pope.
  10. Icono will be doubly pleased, or dp, with that.
  11. 2019 Catholic convert JD Vance when meeting the next pope.
  12. I still say we need a Bay of Pigs style invasion force for Iran, er, Persia. I know who I'm picking first for that operation!
  13. Peru, Nigeria, and Venezuela. He's shit in plenty of woods.
  14. karl It's the way they also said they've now got a new pope, he's hardly new is he? Why didn't they learn from the last one? 16:26 steve Sure 16:26 karl Keep taking on old people. 16:27 steve Yeah, yeah 16:28 karl Me dad couldn't even get a gig in B&Q and he's younger.

    LBGTQ

    Hey look a new statutory rape defense tactic.
  16. Probably win 6-1 then lose to Cincy 3-0.
  17. This was a big part for Iger for sure Also, the message boards are surely flowing with a response to this I didn't have ME reputation laundering and slave labor on my Epic Universe response card, but that was foolish of me.
  18. "This is President Kennedy communicating with Secretary Khrushchev" India specifically didn't target military installations. Look tough for calming the internal pressure, but signals to Pakistan that it isn't a full on war.
  19. And by the way, I thought the rape scene went really well.
  20. The first meal I ever made in a house with a real kitchen that I owned after moving from an apartment was Kukul Mas Maluwa so I support that weird island.
  21. I have the Chicken and Waffles flavor that's been sitting on my counter for a couple months after not liking the Nashville Hot very much. I thought the Quest Chili Lime were better in the protein chips department.
  22. Hell it's spreading in my house in the USA. If given the choice I'd buy Canadian or European too.
