  1. Tonight I learned that I totally love Kamala and Tim, and that contributing to Burnt Ends gives one permission to be a total troll without repercussions. Does my tree fiddy buy the same indulgence?
  2. I do feel like I was just part of something special. I'll allow it.
  3. No one is leaving the hall. This was a PARTY, and they don't want it to end.
  4. I'm fired up! That's one of the most motivating speeches I have ever heard.
  5. Then may his remaining service be short.
  6. Oo, oo! Let me give them back, please!
  7. I like the way you think, but I want some mobility so that I can be sure I'm in the best position to execute my mission.
  8. Every time I see footage from that day, I wish that I had been there with an M-60, 5 or six spare barrels, and 5,000 rounds of ammo. There should have been lots of people accompanying Ashley Babbit to Hell that day. If you voted for Trump before January 6, 2021, I can be generous and think that you were just stupid. If you would vote for Trump now, you are a traitor.
  9. In my head I heard the one that goes back to fuss at him using his Buford T. Justice voice to say, "There is no way that you are the fruit of my loins."
  10. A+ troll job. Nice work, Kriegsmarine!
  11. I just made a political donation for the first time in my life. I'm in, Coach!
  12. Y'all can have Damn Patrick in a straight up trade. Hell, I'll through in $100. Whadda you say?
  13. I wish Moore was governor of Texas.
  14. They have the dickhead part right, I'll give them that.
  15. That's where relative strengths enters the picture. Both sides here are worn down, but Russia has more meat to use for defense, and it is much easier to defend than attack. Ukraine may have some fresh troops with fresh equipment hidden away for a surprise attack, but that seems unlikely with the prevalence of drones on the battlefield. I want Ukraine to recreate the Kharkiv breakout and run Russia smooth out of their country, but that seems like wishful thinking right now.
  16. I'd go back to the mid 80s and spend a day with my mom before her cancer diagnosis, just hanging out. And I'd tell my dad that "one of these days" never comes, so he'd better take her to the mountains and those other trips they had planned right damn then.
  17. Without knowing relative strengths, Russian improvements to their poaitions, and commanders' intentions on both sides, it's hard to say. It looks like a good opportunity to attack at the shoulders of the salient to try to envelope the Russian troops in the salient, but that doesn't always work out, as the Germans found out just a few miles from there in 1943.
  18. Watching that I couldn't help but remember how many sorties and lost planes it took to drop a bridge like that in Vietnam. Now it's lob a few glide bombs at it and it's gone. Amazing change.
  19. Marine Reserve, before I was married. I never deployed. When I tried to reenlist for Desert Storm, they politely told me that they didn't need washed up has beens with dad bods.
  20. Nah, poor guy looks just like me.
  21. I thought that the Army was the First Infantry Division and a million replacements. My son considered the Marine Corps coming out of high school. When the recruiter asked why he decided not to enlist, my son answered that he could get the same or better computer training as a civilian without "the needs of the Corps" sending him to be shot at in Iraq or Afghanistan. I somehow raised a kid smarter than me. I can't tell you how that happened.
  22. I've got some fireworks saved back for that joyful occasion. I don't care if there's a burn ban on, I'm fixing a couple of nice ribeyes with baked potatoes, mushrooms, and asparagus, getting a bottle of the best champagne my poor ass can afford, feasting, then setting the fireworks off. If any of my neighbors don't like it, they can go shit in a hat.
