  1. Fuck this fucking bitch. Has any person in the US ever so thoroughly ruined their longstanding reputations more than Caitlyn or Rudy or Elon? I'm struggling to think of any.
  2. Yeah I just read about a restaurant owner in Northern Ireland who had someone go on Facebook and claim that there were gay orgies going on in the restaurant while it was being remodeled. The restaurant owner ended up having to close up shop. So, I guess the moral of the story is that it doesn’t matter what you do, if someone is up to something nefarious, you could suffer some pretty serious consequences as collateral damage. That sucks, for sure. But what you are asking for is a situation where no one could act nefariously before you’d even consider an alternative to continuous mass shootings. The problem is, if no one could act nefariously we wouldn’t be having mass shootings to begin with. what it comes down to is that if you want to have unfettered access to a resource, you also have a responsibility to make sure that you are a proper steward of that resource, and that means in this case you help people figure out how to keep as many guns out of the hands of people who won’t use that resource wisely. If you aren’t doing that, you are part of the problem.
  3. And I need to know where to expect the next mass shooting before I know whether or not to get behind more guns rather than less. Fatty, do you see how that argument is nonsense? Also don’t fuck around on your wife, man, that’s not cool.
  4. Don’t you put that evil on us motherfucker!!
  5. You forgot the word common. This sentiment is way way more common than y'all want to believe.
  6. Lest anyone wonder why people like me spend time here specifically arguing about gays having an equal right to exist, people like this motherfucker are why. He's literally created a weapon that at some point would be deployed against some group of "others" and he's fucking happy about it. It is for people like him that I hope that he's right and God is real, and that his first glimpse of the afterlife is the moment of judgement where he sees what an evil person he's been. And then he realizes that he has all of eternity to pay the price for that evilness. That would be justice. Fuck him. I hope he dies destitute and alone.
  7. Gotta be honest, I was excited about the prospect of a hot underwear model making an appearance in this thread. Then I went and looked. Did that bitch have COVID because she has no fucking taste.
  8. 22, but the rest is on point. And just last year he was found to be phoning in neighborhood bomb threats, but he did no time for that and the record was sealed. So probably he has rich parents.
  9. Yeah, if I could do that, I doubt I'd ever leave my house. So of course you are weird WTB.
  10. Have to admit, I was so fucking confused when I had to go to a meeting at FAC and google maps kept trying to put me at the UGL. Also, you can tell its a Dem crowd based on the lack of mouth breathing.
  11. Dunno, but they aren't TTom. None of them are quite unhinged enough, and I don't expect he would've gotten on some meds to even things out for himself.
  12. Well I voted on the weekend, my employer doesn't know. I could still take up to 4 hours off on election day while skipping the line.
  13. I would join that group, but sadly, I'm not a father.
  14. He's not aged well. You can go upthread and see some of my thirsty posts. I hereby retract them. He didn't have a long shelf life. But I will never not find the banjo player outside one of his "press conferences" hilarious.
  15. I had a conversation with a kind of friend of mine a few years ago that taught me a couple of things. #1 People are dumb, and #2, I'm not telling anyone to go vote, ever again. She never got around to voting about that ridiculous taxi campaign to ban uber and lyft. I was flabbergasted, because it was incredibly dumb that we were even needing to have the conversation. Aside, Fuck you Ann Kitchen. The good side lost that fight, and I was like, but we needed you to vote to keep them around. And she's like "oh, well I probably would've voted against uber and lyft." Well, ok then. I learned not to assume that people are going to make good decisions in the voting booth because of other things you know about them, and as a result, don't encourage anyone to vote. Also, people are dumb. Also, I think that might've been the last time I ever talked to her.
  16. I voted on the first day around 615 at southpark meadows, I was second in line with all the registrars helping someone and every machine taken. And I vote on the first day because if I would've had a heart attack last night I still would've had my vote in against every Republican on the ballot.
  17. Yep I have asthma as well, which is why I stayed home until I was vaxxed and boosted. It's why I raged against the members of my family who didn't want to vaccinate and for a long time felt exactly as you do. I even called people both selfish and unpatriotic who were refusing to vaccinate, and I still 100% believe that. But at some point I realized that I'm not ever going to get everyone (or even most people) to do the right thing simply because it's the right thing, and it isn't my job to police them anyway. I have to let people make their own mistakes and if those mistakes kill them, well, they had the same opportunity that I had to get vaccinated and reduce their risk. Once I got myself ok with that, I was able to give myself permission to go back to living my life again. And yes it's not over, but it will never be over until this thing mutates into another form of the common cold, which it's only going to be able to do if it continues to circulate. Since we never had the will to stop this virus completely, the best course of action now is to let it continue to run wild and continue to get less severe as it looks for the equilibrium it needs to stay in circulation. Staying home forever, nationwide lockdowns, hell even getting people to wear masks are all non-starters here in the US. Those things simply will not happen, so it's not over from a death and destruction standpoint, but it's over from the standpoint of getting the general public to band together and do something about it. The only thing the general public seems willing to do at this point is nothing, which means to keep letting it mutate and hope that it keeps following the trend and heading more and more to the common cold/influenza territory in severity. And if a bunch of morons hit the FAFO lottery on the journey, all the better.
  18. So Jimmy, I'm staying boosted (including the new one) and gotten back to normal, and I've just resigned myself that there are still a whole bunch of morons that feel the need to fuck around and find out still. And I'm ok with that. More morons dying is a net positive, and I'm not going to stand in their way and warn them anymore. If that's what they want, then let them go find what they are looking for. It's ok to let that be ok.
  19. Umm you can't even get out of the first chapter of Genesis before the words His, Him and Them are all used. (Genesis 1:27)
