  1. Rules. Using context clues…. I think I can help.
  2. If you’re not moving anytime soon and this sells, then they did you a favor. use it as a comp when protesting your appraisal and save some $ in your property taxes.
  3. Literally just Lalo Tequila and Topo Chico. Clean. Bubbly. I guess you can squeeze a lime into it to make a ranch water.... but dammit if I don't just like the taste of the tequila. Lalo is now just $38 at Total Wine b/c agave prices plummeted. No better blanco tequila for the price IMO.
  4. We’re here for you. You sound pretty upset. I’ll tell you what, we’ll keep the topic going while you go to the store. Go buy yourself nice. That way you’ll be recharged by dinner time. I bet your cooking tastes so much better when you’re rested and happy.
  5. It is amazing that insufferable assholes are not extended the same latitude as a generational talent not seen in a hundred years or so. Oh wait….
  6. [checks notes] Harvey Weinstein's in jail..... Alec Baldwin was re-indicted... Hillary Clinton didn't win the presidency.... Danny Masterson in jail.... Armie Hammer is toxic and black listed... Prince Andrew stripped of all duties..... [stops checking notes] Maybe these guys aren't really that good at their jobs.......
  7. Sir you lie. Because you know, and I know that you secretly DID want them to die in a fire.... just maybe a little more down the road and away from the gas station.
  8. What's up with the gap? Kiono?
  9. Any sexual act that requires lubricants should use water based lubricants. Anything else can lead to infection, inflammation, and irritation. In addition, not using lubricants can lead to trauma to the areas affected which also leads to an increased risk of STI and potential injury. Let's be safe, healthy, and consensual out there folks. There's only so many hours/minutes/seconds in a day to get your dick or lady parts wet (is it person parts now?)... savor every one of them.
  10. I understand where you're coming from, however....... I've been in a hydrocarbon vapor explosion that caused catastrophic damage, killed a guy, horrifically injured two others, and caused a company to go under. And due to my youth, I'm pretty sure 8 of my 9 lives have been lost. So I'm not about to go out b/c some Tina, Ashley, Maria, Shaniqua, or Bonnie doesn't want to be slightly inconvenienced at the gas station. The risk is not worth the convenance. The issue is less to do with when the gas is contained and more to do if / when you lose containment..... which does happen. There's a lot of stupid out there. Your car's electrical system is an ignition source. Your cell phone / electronics are an ignition source. Static discharge is an ignition source. Gasoline combustion engines operate on igniting the gas fumes within the piston.... so there's a flame in close proximity to flammable vapor when running. The heat generated by combustion causes portions of your car to be at temperature that are above the autoignition temperature of gasoline vapor. The holes in the swish cheese will eventually line up if you temp fate enough. Trust me.
  11. People (usually women but sometimes usually young dumb dudes) who have no fucking clue at the gas station. You Know how many times I have to ask them to turn off car while filling up? I just had to this morning and got SOOOO much attitude and a scoff. But I stood their brow beating them until she did. I mean, how clueless do you have to be to think having an ignition source so close to a flammable vapor generating action as well is ok? if it was diesel I’d at least somewhat understand while still thinking it’s not a good idea at all. I mean risk and reward and spill and all. But gasoline. Are you kidding me? Arggh.
  12. No jury can deny this fact. If the machete slits, you must convict.
  13. Wife decides to do the laundry. This is something akin to the total solar eclipse we’re about to witness here in Texas. doesn’t separate colors. Free for all on hanger handedness. None of my shirts on hangers are buttoned and are falling off in my closet. I mean, pure chaos. A younger, stupider DNAguy would have said something. Made a comment. Nothing too demeaning. Something to bring her down to earth. Idk if it’s the impending 40th birthday but I just kept my mouth shut. Even when she was strolling around commenting on how I take twice as long with the laundry and she doesn’t know why. Being about 5 beers deep into the evening helps, but Christ almighty:
  14. So R Kelly meets Epstein meets Harvey Weinstein but cast with African Americans in music and movies?
  15. Am I just not cool like you guys? WTF did he do wrong / what has he been doing wrong for all these years? Lot's of innuendo here like we all know what y'all are talking about. Cliffnotes please.
  16. The Soviets withdrew from Afghanistan before Bush Sr became president. Now if you want to argue that he should have changed US policy when he became president then I take your point and it wasn’t as if he was coming off the street. He was VP. But one does have to consider that the more potentially fraught Cold War arena wad Europe. You had protests and elections in Poland. The Baltic states and East Germany were on edge. The was still the potential for somebody doing something dumb and the world would end. Taking your eyes off Afghanistan to focus on Europe was the right call. It’s only bc we lacked imagination in our intelligence service that 9/11 was able to be launched from Afghanistan.
  17. Uhhhh. What does the Taliban have to do with the collapse of the Soviet Union outside of maybe bringing it on? It’s not like they were a client state of the Soviets like the Warsaw pact. And not to get all Real Politik here but Kurdish / Shia fates in Iraq didn’t mean shit in relation to world order or global oil availability or price. The problems with the Taliban were a result of leaving Afghanistan to whither on the vine after they drove out the soviets AND then Bush 2 electric boogaloo’s quixotic venture into Iraq instead of finishing the job after 9/11. And Iraq is such a blunder in American foreign policy due to Bush 2 (again!) and not Bush 1. It’s weird twist of fate and just sad the GHWB had a dolt of a son who singlehandedly undid the New world order that his father (well maybe James Baker) worked hard establish.
