  1. left wing ecosystem? is that bigger than a cabal?
  2. Black Lives Matter will eat Chick-fil-A. well that's boring. they probably actually did that. pffft
  3. i was at the pharmacy earlier this week and i had to actually talk to the pharmacist about a prescription and discuss some insurance related stuff. i was the only one in the 'drop off/counsel' line while the pickup line was easily 20 deep. so im waiting and the pharmacist is kind of right in front of me and is on the phone with what was clearly an elderly person with lots of questions and issues with their meds, and the pharmacist has repeated the same thing at least four times, and is answering the same question again and again, and offering the same reassurances and instructions multiple times... and she kept looking at me and holding up a finger and maybe slightly rolling her eyes... but on the phone she was polite, calm, helpful and never once betrayed any frustration or impatience, even on the fourth or fifth repeat. i easily waited 8-10 minutes... and i also was totally calm and patient, and when she finally hung up and turned to me she immediately said 'i am so sorry for the wait!' to which i responded 'no problem at all... you're doing a great job, you were so good on the phone! your patience and politeness made me want to be patient and polite!' and she ended up being super helpful to me as well. i mean... it's really not that difficult to not be a complete asshole all the time.
  4. these poor dumb saps that were rooting and/or voted for Trump... i'm picturing them like this when ICE shows up
  5. not just any leftists... all surly had to do is balance the budget! dammit.
  6. wait...surly 'leftists' are responsible for the federal budget not being balanced?? i mean i know we're part of the biggest NIL collective and the largest political forum in Texas, but i had no idea we had that kind of power and influence 😮 🙄
  7. bothered a politician may be embellishing and/or scoring a political point off a tragedy?

    LBGTQ

    was that to all agency heads? it doesn't specify how or even what he's saying to take action on... is each agency's HR gonna have to figure it out? are they all going to be requesting AG opinions? i assume it's employees as well as the public...employees turning each other in has to be coming. i'm really, truly sorry troph 😞

    LBGTQ

    i mean he didn't even really get negged. we're doing better, my fellow cabalians! 👍 haha no but really... there were no negs that i saw and he still couldn't stick around? ok.
  10. i mean there's really not much to complain about for the first week in February 😎
  11. eh not really... most people will still read it, they'll just pretend they don't so they can still ignore. *waves* lol
  12. i mean lots of things have zero to do with what happened yesterday, but that's not stopping people from getting on front of a microphone and pointing fingers. it's just 'common sense' lol.
  13. the former DOT head responds appropriately.
  14. i like this thread, it should stay in DT. the media circus and blame game and ridiculous official statements and press conferences should remain front and center, in the face of those who would pretend this is not our reality.
  15. i hope somebody - and Pete is perfect for this - is a continual thorn in their side like this. punch them right back in the face every time. nobody else ever seems to have the balls to play the game under the new rules!
  16. surly's own Susan Collins?
