  1. Don't know if this has been noticed or posted about on the Astros board but things not going well for our old friend Joc Pederson. He's mired in an 0-41 streak.
  2. I love these dated references that I find on Surly. A few weeks back, someone posted a picture of George Steinbrenner with Billy Martin from the late 70s or early 80s and many of us olds gave it the +1 laugh rep. I try and remember that to a younger person, a Billy Martin reference in 2025 would be like if my grandfather had said something like "reminds me of Connie Mack, amirite?" in 1982.
  3. Elon's vow to be less involved with DOGE so he can concentrate on Tesla reminds me of Slingblade when Frank comes home and Doyle tells him, "well, the upshot is I'll be spending a lot more time here."
  4. They'll never realize they were suckers much less admit it. The older Trumpers were mostly the people swilling Limbaugh and Fox News in the 9/11, Iraq War days. You can hardly find anybody lately that will admit they supported any of that, much less that they were duped by it. Some of the only people I've heard that'll own it are never Trump former Republicans, several of which we have on this board. I've talked with quite a few MAGA in real life who say they loved and still love O'Reilly, Hannity, Limbaugh, and Toby Keith but nah they were always against those wars, even Afghanistan from the very start. When this whole Trumpism thing crashes into the mountain like it did at the end of the 2nd Bush term, they'll quietly change their views retroactively rather than admit they were rubes. Above all else, they'll never admit that the left or Democrats were ever right about any of it. * The above is the best case scenario, as good as it's ever going to get for the end of Trumpism if we're lucky enough to see it.
  5. With some Maga nimrod in the near future, I plan to assert that Donald Trump is the dumbest person in the history of American public life. When they say no way, I'll challenge them to name 1 dumber person. Whoever they want, politician, athlete, actor, absolutely anyone. Once they've named their one dumber person, I'll ask that they take a few days and find the objectively dumbest things their person has said, actual quotes only, and I'll collect the same for Trump. It's a fucking slam dunk I'll win that shit. I'll be sure to include the per capita quote above.
  6. Hahaha. I thought that was a Gary Peterson type photoshop until I saw the video just below. The kids are dreading that the groupchats they're part of might leak. Or maybe they're the ones that leaked this latest batch.
  7. Haven't watched it all but he must be screening his audience pretty carefully these days.
  8. Except lions or hyenas will likely come steal it since the leopard can't carry that face up a tree. Way more than Jackie Jr. My fawtha.
  9. CNBC: Dow drops 200 points after China, EU hit back with retaliatory tariffs and Trump threatens to "execute every motherfucking last one of ya."
  10. Not enough. I want him to be disgraced, broke, in prison like the Colonel at the end of Boogie Nights or rotting away in Russia's worst nursing home.
  11. We really need an angry laughing +1 reaction.
  12. Indeed. Along with that famously Republican sentiment of, "who cares about money anyway?"
  13. On Facebook several years ago, I had a lot of back home type friends who were always going on about "everyone gets a trophy" and how it's making today's kids and our country soft. They didn't seem to remember that in the leagues we played in as youths in the 80s everyone got a fucking trophy, the same god damn trophy whether they were on the championship team or last place. Same whether they were the best player in the league or the worst. Yet somehow in 2018, they were a bunch of old school hard asses who never ever got a participation trophy.
  14. Imagine being an Air Force general and NSA director and getting fired on the say so of fucking Laura Loomer. The left wing equivalent of Laura Loomer doesn't exist as a public figure, much less would that person ever have any influence over staffing of the highest ranks of the fucking US military.
  15. This from the guy who just unironically in 2025 called someone else a cuck. Fuck off, you dimwitted rube.
  16. This point about the scale of wealth inequality should be hammered constantly. If a million dollars is a mile, a billion is a 1000 miles, roughly Austin to Chicago. Even back in the Reagan "greed is good" 80s, we despised Randolph & Mortimer Duke and Gordon Gekko who were fictional, more likable, and broke ass motherfuckers compared to Elon and Zuckerberg. I never even hear our oligarchs referred to as greedy. Let no one escape knowing how the wealth of Bezos compares to an Amazon worker or Elon's compared to the park ranger or veteran at the VA whose jobs are being cut. Also, there's only 800 billionaires in the US and these assholes have this much influence? Saw this on Surly somewhere and it's one of the best demonstrations of wealth inequality I've seen.
  17. Years ago on Surly, I was posting something about the Stormy Daniels case. Before I posted, I checked the spelling of Stormy making sure it wasn't ie or ee at the end. You know, because I'm careful enough to make sure I spell the porn star's name right as I post what was probably a joke under the name of an anthropomorphic, washed up sitcom actor horse from a cartoon on a Longhorn sports focused website. Sometimes, when I look at Venmo, I'll see the stupid shit people leave out in the open such as what are most likely weed purchases and wonder how in the fuck they're not more careful to make those transactions private. Of course, none of us are god damn national security advisors.
  18. My handy guide to right wing humor reminds me that there's no point looking for meaning in the joke beyond it's something sexist, racist, or otherwise deliberately distasteful. I think that's supposed to be Rosie O'Donnell. The joke is he's suggesting Rosie is overweight and unattractive and he thinks the left is triggered by this because he's a moron who thinks (because dumb shit like this is constantly suggested to him) that for us the sun rises and sets out of Rosie's ass every day. Like we're ever mindful of Rosie O'Donnell, but of course most of us aren't even entirely sure who that it. Also, Rosie has nothing to do with St Patrick's Day so don't go searching for a connection there. Inside this dimwit's head: "durr durr Rosie's fat and not hot durr durr they'll be so offended durr durr woke! durr durr gubmint durr durr."
  19. I'll go ahead and state the obvious, unpleasant as it it. That's the look of someone that wants to give a very aggressive rimjob.
  20. Non Maga needs to hammer these kinds of points. Always context the cuts of popular programs vs. the obscene wealth and excesses of the people making the cuts.
