  1. Marcel with the scoop and score.
  2. I agree with you, in principle. However, you would need a legitimate couterparty in HK, and interest in doing as you suggest within the UK. I don't think either of those things exist. Ultimately, we would have to be the military intercessors, and that's another thing I just don't see. I think we'll most likely engage in appeasement under the cover of mercantilism.
  3. I thought the same thing. That's why he plays defense.
  4. We need to run that throwback play.
  5. Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.
  6. I disagree. We were relevant this entire offseason. Of course that ended once the season started.
  7. OP seems to have no direct concern for the people harmed by idiotic do gooder laws, but neither do any of the other people in this thread. As a practical matter, you can only ban things. Laws cannot create jobs. Laws can only ban them. And that's exactly what they did in CA. It's a perfect example of why you have to be realistic about the outcome of goverment intervention, because if you aren't then you hurt people. And this outcome was completely predictable. I was in CA for the first time in many years recently. Man, literally everything is a sticker shock. Gas, lunch, car rentals man it was all like a 50% premium to reality. $15 for every lunch. I mean I ate pretty good, poke bowls are awesome, but come on. How do you go bankrupt? Two ways. Gradually, then suddenly.
  8. The Marriott points are worth what, like three nights in Tokyo? I looked it up, it's three nights at the Ritz Carlton, or six at the Westin.
  9. Ain't nothin gonna break my stride Nobody gonna slow me down oh no I gotta keep on moving
  10. Look, if it comes down to we have to rehire Major's favorite towel girl, I think you'd at least hold the conversation.
  11. China threatened Germany if they banned Huawei, then China would ban the seven million German cars from being sold into China. Germany couldn't handle that at all. https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/did-china-just-threaten-kill-german-car-exports-over-huawei-decision Those microprocessors have back doors so China can spy, or shutdown the networks, or do whatever they want.
  12. I was in a hotel in Korea, and hit xvideos or something. A screen came up with some sort of Korean National Police symbol and a bunch of korean script I obviously couldn't read. It was somewhat alarming. I was totally unaware this would happen. The cockblocking was not appreciated.
  13. You know why they called it Rutgers? Because they were too embarassed to call it the University of New Jersey.
  14. I'm sorry, did you just say that there are "experts" on Surly?
  15. No shit. Calling people stupid is just about all you do. Spreading the Chrismas cheer and all. So bold and brave.
  16. The FISA application would have been very different if the FBI had disclosed the Page was metting with russian agents ON BEHALF OF THE CIA, don't you think?
  17. They're as bad as the Nazis. They're Chinazis.
