  1. Kinda like this ... Charlie Kirk 'debating' and 'engaging in civil political discourse'.
  2. Don't forget "out of context" (narrator: the context is evident in the videos), "misquoted" (look at the videos), "text omitted to make it look worse than it is" (look at the videos), etc, etc, etc. Don't expect anything remotely resembling an intellectually honest argument or discussion from him or his ilk. They aren't capable of it, and even if they were, they wouldn't be interested in it anyway, because they know they can't win if they're being honest about shit.
  3. To function properly, democracy requires an informed electorate, so yeah. It's fucked.
  4. Fuck yeah. I was thinking the same thing when my kid showed it to me. And I'm agnostic.
  5. Stephen A. Smith says the league denying Trump a deal for the Bills (because he didn't actually have enough money) is the reason he ran for POTUS. Thanks, NFL.
  6. Yep. Some people say the political spectrum is a line. I believe it's a horseshoe or a circle. Just one of many versions: eta: I know I'm not breaking new ground here. I just like posting it because of the pretty colors & stuff.
  7. Yep. I mean ... weren't they already trying to couch it as 'trans violence' within minutes of the shooting? Odd, at best. I'd never even heard that term until this happened.
  8. Re: the Kirk lionization, I'm reminded of something I heard once in the fire station 20-25 years ago that has stuck with me to this day. We were all sitting around the kitchen table having lunch at the beginning of the shift and a couple of young guys were talking about what a great guy so and so was. My buddy Daryl overheard that and said "Nah. Y'all are confusing 'polite' & 'friendly' etc with 'good'. That guy's piece of shit". Then he explained what the guy had done that made him a piece of shit. I've never forgotten that, and looking back on my life, got damn if he isn't 100% right. Some of the biggest pieces of shit I've ever known seemed like great people at first, and some of the best people I've ever known didn't come off as anything special at all when I met them.
  9. I remember her. Damn. I used to like her. Oh well. So much for that shit.
  10. Realtor? Oof. Asssociates from Blinn?
  11. So he's kinda Tyler Durden on steroids if this shit is true. Fuck me.
  12. Seriously. I've been thinking along those lines for a while now, but I'm so financially illiterate that I wouldn't even know where to begin to do something like that. Little help?
  13. Man, Robert Arnold is just fantastic.
  14. Does the Pope shit in the woods? Is it ok to yell 'Movie!' in a crowded firehouse?
  15. Every time I think I have a grip on just how many utter idiots there are, I soon discover that I've understimated that number yet again. And badly. I used to think I've been too hard on Americans re: their ignorance and stupidity. I've finally come to understand I've actually been far too optimistic about it.
  16. ... but I knew what you meant. Class of '83 here. This post was ...

    Wow. If ND does right even just 1 of about 17 things they did wrong, they win this game. Just amazing. They literally invited aggy back into the game with sheer stupidity.
