    My favorite part was the little foot stomp on the way over. 
     

    Apparently the wife got mauled, the second person who got out was her mother who got killed trying to save her. LOL? 

    The MIL died?

    That's extremely LOL. I was worried nobody was killed or injured in this otherwise wonderful scenario.

    We had some good news tonight so it became a steak night.  I think the best thing I did to up my steak game was experiment with compound butters. This moves a home grilled steak from “awesome” to “never go to a steakhouse again.” Prime ribeye with anchovy-chive-garlic butter, charred asparagus, and ancho-lime basted corn.

    My go-to compound butter is roasted garlic, kosher salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes, and chopped sage. Really great complement for when I grill a whole tenderloin. I will coat the entire outside while it rests. 

  3. I had a 94 80 I got brand new and put 250k miles on it, then a 97 40th Anniversary with locking diffs at 90k miles I put 150k more on it and now I have a 200 series I bought with 44k miles. In my experience brand new and 100k miles are virtually indistinguishable except for the new car smell and regular wear and tear on the interior.

    I’m disappointed on the lack of a V6 in either the LC or 4Runner. If I have the bucks I’d go with the Lexus.

    Will stick with my 99 SR5 Sport V6 4wD. Only 175k.

    I would HATE having a V6 in the LC. In lieu of the V8 I am interested in the 4 cylinder hybrid, especially if mileage really is 20+. I've been driving LCs since 1994 and have never gotten better than 13 MPG on a tank of gas.

    I’m about to ban @BHMCruiser actually. Also people aren’t dog piling they are giving clear, pointed and not even really flame filled rebuttals to nonsensical trolling. 

    I’m about to get banned? For what? What did I do? 
     

    also I’m not being dog piled. A lot of people have made good faith arguments to me. And I have listened.

    It's what people leave out that makes them bad faith operators/liars.

    Compare these two scenarios:

    1 -- Brisket was going to be late filing his brief with the court of appeals, which has to be filed by 5:00 pm. but through a loophole in the law, the court's clerk's office is deemed "open for filing" as long as the clerk is physically in the office, so because the clerk was still in his office at 8:00 pm, Brisket did nothing wrong by filing his brief at 8:00.

    2 -- Brisket was going to be late filing his brief with the court of appeals, which has to be filed by 5:00 pm. but through a loophole in the law, the court's clerk's office is deemed "open for filing" as long as the clerk is physically in the office, so because the clerk was still in his office at 8:00 pm...because Brisket urged his supporters to storm the clerk's office, and hold the clerk at gunpoint so he couldn't leave.... Brisket did nothing wrong by filing his brief at 8:00.

    It's the part that BHM leaves out that tells you he isn't arguing in good faith.  A violent attack on the capitol offered the opportunity, if a bad actor cooperated with it and took advantage of it, to delay and possibly kill the vote certification.  Trump, given the CLEAR AND BINARY OPTION of 1) exercise his authority as the executive to take action to stop the insurrection, or 2) functionally join in the insurrection to further his interest as a candidate to kill a vote certification that would have ended his bid for office, he unambiguously and enthusiastically chose option 2.  Joining in and coopting the use of force to your advantage is legally, morally, ethically, and practically identical to using the force yourself.  "Go shoot that guy so I can get some advantage" and then taking advantage when your request is followed is no different than shooting the guy yourself.

    But BHM isn't interested in a good-faith analysis.  He wants to both-sides it because some other candidates have filed legal challenges in the past.  What he won't cite for you is a single fucking candidate who SIDED WITH AND TOOK ADVANTAGE OF AN ONGOING VIOLENT INSURRECTION to do so.  Because it has never happened before.  Ever.  What Trump did was disastrously unprecedented and, by my prediction, it will ultimately kill the country.  He set the precedent that the peaceful transfer of power is no longer the order of the day.  Every election from now on will offer the option of a violent refusal to accept it.  You can't shove that demon back in the box.

    Thoughtful and fair except for the end of days part at the end. I’m coming around on this.

    Those phone calls are no different than happen in every presidential election. Don't kid yourself. Read Caro's books on LBJ

    Right. She conceded the next day.

    Trump

    Never

    Did

     

    See the difference?

    Yes. One conceded. One did not. Neither one is an insurrection.

    Here's her talking to CBS about why she lost:

    Nobody serious thinks there's any equivalence between how Hillary responded to her loss and how Trump responded to his. BHM is clearly not serious. 

    Donald putting on a confederate uniform, picking up a musket, and actually shooting Biden. And only that, probably. 

    Yes but shooting him WHERE?

    I don't think there's anything I could say to convince you that trump did anything wrong, but I would argue that the brightest red line was crossed when they had to evacuate both chambers of congress, and when trump was ignoring their calls while they were actively under siege. 

    Oh he did plenty of shit that was wrong. I think there's all sorts of stuff he could be nailed on. I am just skeptical that "insurrection" is one of them. 

    I do not think Trump is competent to be president. I think he is selfish, stupid and vain. I think he is dangerously egotistical. But I think he cratered when his rally spun out of his control.

    TIL that when a violent mob storm the United States fucking Capitol in the name of, and at the behest of, a political candidate to protect his incumbency and reverse a legally-recognized election result, it is not an insurrection.

     

    I prefer "totally fucking pedantic" but thanks

    Interesting posts, @BHMCruiser. I'm in the camp that believes the actions of Jan 6 were obviously efforts to seize the government illegally. It matters to lawyers and judges if you can define it under a certain legal code. Whether they can or not doesn't alter my opinion of what I saw and what I have read.

    I've been kicking around the stange notion that the obvious doesn't mean so much anymore. That someone who did what Trump did and which we saw and not be eliminated out of hand from holding office is just plain bizarre. Trump may not fit the narrow definition of an insurrectionist or traitor, but he is clearly a dangerous enemy of the republic.

    He has invited whatever a loyal citizen of the US might do to him.

    We have the same opinion of the real problem being the electorate. Trump's presence on the ballot supported by that electorate is a combination that is both shocking and dangerous.

    Very valid points. Of course I am shocked that an electorate would choose Trump OR Biden but then again what the fuck do I know

  12. If somebody had recorded HRC's response to losing to Trump, I wonder what she was saying? Probably something about "accepting the results" and "oh well fair is fair"
