  1. Fucking amateurs. I was pulling that shit in high school. My mom never knew why she had to keep replacing that particular kind of soup.
  2. I think I've found where most of the 36% live. The stupidity of some of these people never seem to amaze me. Rationale for why the government shutdown is good: ""It kind of makes me question what they do on a day-to-day basis. If I don't miss them, what were they doing?" Yeah motherfucker, it's all about you. Christ on a sidecar, of all the arguments you could make supporting the shutdown, this is what you're going with? https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2019/01/20/trump-country-republicans-cheer-federal-shutdown/2549255002/ And no, USA Today is not my normal reading material but I saw one in a hotel lobby in Bumfuck Florida and picked it up.
  3. OK let's see. This one for all the marbles. It's really really difficult: Q: You are are a MAGA kid from a Catholic High School at a pro-life rally participating in your school cheer or whatever on the steps of a DC Monument. An elderly native American man chanting and banging a drum approaches you. Do you: 1. Courteously move out of the way because he is an elderly person, not to mention another fucking human being in a public space leading up to a National Memorial, not to mention obviously (for anyone who is not a total fucking idiot) engaging in some kind of song/dance/ritual possibly of a religious nature and might not be paying as much attention to his surroundings, or might have a reason for wanting to choose that particular path, or 2. Mock him, taunt him get in his face, because, Goddammit HE approached THEM!!! Hmm, that's a tough one. And when passing judgement on the event, do you: 1. Look at the 3 seconds of the recording where the man arguably approaches the kids and say, "Yup, that's all I need to see, he was the aggressor, fake news, build the wall, MAGA MAGA MAGA!", or 2. Look at the whole fucking video and see that the kids behaved in a really sickening manner. Although I have to say the "He started it" excuse dovetails nicely in with the infantile behavior consistently epitomized by the Cheeto. That excuse shouldn't fly unless you're three fucking years old. Who gives a good goddam who started it? Why is that even at issue? The behavior of those kids is vile. I have to say I was encouraged by the swift condemnation of the events by the school authorities and a number of Kentucky politicians. Then of course came the practically illiterate rant by the alleged mother of one of the kids. Like we didn't already know where it came from. Nice call, Brisket. I mean, I appreciate that some of y'all think this kind of behavior is on the way out with the Boomer generation, but let me tell you something, I'm old AF, and the shit doesn't stop. It grows new legs every fucking time. I just want to go weep. Instead I'm going to go catch a plane to Florida. Yay me.
  4. There is some debate about whether this is truly Michael Hodge or another odious punk. At any rate, from the comments, user name checks out: SeattleAggie‏ @Troopaloop 3h3 hours ago More Replying to @josemercado @RedTRaccoon I don’t get it. Looks like a group of trump supporters and this guy picked one of them and then beat his drum in his face. Do I have that right?
  5. Y'all know what makes me cry these days? Almost nothing. You know what made me cry today? That video. I think I'll just stop there.

    My dear, pointing out the extraordinary similarities between the things you say and the things said by virulent white supremacists is hardly "shutting up any real discussion". But if it makes you feel better to play the victim by claiming so, well, then, who am I to argue. Anyway, from what I've seen of Stomrfront, you're a natural and you'd fit right in. Except for one little thing. But I'm sure those guys won't mind it. At all.

    Love and kisses, Stormfront.
  9. That' the craziest "both sides" I've ever seen. No selective outrage! No selective outrage! YOU'RE the selective outrage!
  10. Yeah well if the government hadn't shut down they'd be able to post more PSAs about smoking and people would see them and not smoke and die, so what about THAT Mr. Smarty Pants?
  11. Yeah. You know...and just work with me on this one....let's say it's 100% true that someone found a prayer rug in the desert. What might that mean on its face other than a MUSLIM MAY HAVE BEEN SEEKING ASYLUM IN THE US, OMG YALL!!1
  12. 35-40% floor no matter what. Dangle something tasty in front of another 10-15% of the population and they're right back in play. You don't think that can or will happen?
  13. Firstly: I'm a CPA, the time to commit tax fraud is never, but since audits lag a year or two behind filing, it's the stuff that was filed 2015-2016 that's going to get the short shrift here. Secondly: Floor - yeah, the 30-odd percent bottom we're at now hasn't budged him, and like you said, it's probably not going to go lower so......he gives no fucks. Wildcard is the perception of the Congress-critters that are holding this shit up. It could all be over tomorrow if they did their fucking jobs. If Trump isn't going to budge, and the 'pubs aren't going to stop clinging to his pant legs, then.....what?
  14. Saw in the comments (why do I do this to myself?) of some tweet or another that federal govt workers are all overpaid and if they are suffering right now it's because they weren't smart enough to save for a rainy day, and WALL WALL WALL!! So while Trump's numbers have gone down, I don't know that there is a floor beyond which his support will diminish to the point that he, or even Congress, will take notice. In other words, a la Brisket, we're all gonna die. Or at least be mortally inconvenienced when we have to fly. Like I have to, twice in the next month. So, fuck me I guess.
  15. OK here's how old I am. I remember the original and didn't even know there was an edited version. When the song first came out there was no sense that Mark Knopfler was being homophobic. He was describing a hypothetical conversation between two dumb, uneducated, stoned, probably homophobic, furniture movers bitching about how hard they had to work for their money while the "faggots" making music videos had it so easy. Wah. But yeah I can see how that wouldn't fly today. Just about a week ago I was watching a documentary about Lou Reed. They had interviews with the original Jackie, Sugar Plum Fairy, Candi, etc. It was wild. Anyway Lou himself said that the reason Wild Side got past the censors was because the old farts didn't even know what "giving head" meant. Nor did they know anything about the trans culture, so the whole notion of "he was a she" didn't even compute. So they let it ride. I mean hey, it's not like he was singing, "LET'S SPEND THE NIGHT TOGETHER", or "GIRL WE COULDN'T GET MUCH HIGHER". Now, THAT was offensive and not to be allowed.
  16. The comments are spot on and scarier than the tweet and confirm my worst fears. Why do the 21st century American rubes outnumber the 20th century Communist Russia/Eastern European rubes? That don't make no sense....
  17. Crisis. Hmm. And the reason a crisis today and not for the period beginning January 20, 2017 and ending January 2, 2019 is because..... . . . . . I'll wait.....
  18. I've had to do this with some lifelong friends. I don't mind having different politics, but I refuse to associate with racist pricks. I can't say it's brought me peace of mind - more like sorrow over the loss of close relationships and my utter chagrin that I've been associating with such assholes. Except they weren't assholes before. Or they were, but they didn't show it. Or.....fuck it. At least my elderly parents haven't gotten sucked in. On the contrary, my parents hate all things Trump and Trump-like. But quite frankly, having CNN blaring all day with my mother screaming how much she hates the Republicans does not exactly make for a peaceful and harmonious visit either. I mean, I get it, but what's the use of being riled up over it 24/7? Then again she is old and becoming senile. And there is a lot of other baggage between my mom and me. Ironic that it's one of the few thing upon which we totally agree that is causing so much strife right now.
  19. This. You can see Uga catch Bevo's eye right below he lowered the horn. Bevo meant bidness. You know, bovines don't like dogs as a rule, and you never can predict the reaction of one animal to another with 100% certainty so it really whoever's bright idea it was to bring the dog that close to the steer is responsible for any bullshit fallout from here on out.
  20. Speaking just for myself, because I've been a silent passenger on the Brisket wagon since.....well....since before it started toward the bridge it's about to fall off of, it's not the possibility of the pushback that is the issue, but what that would mean from a practical standpoint. Civil war? Possibly. Do you realize how utterly devastating that would be to the majority of the people of this country in terms of blood and treasure? Yeah the Republic would more than likely survive but at what cost? I'd much rather the citizenry get woke and kick out the disgusting slugs in charge of the country at the moment and drive the 1/3 of the population who support those slugs back under their rocks....but I'd also like to wake up tomorrow morning and take a shit that consists entirely of diamonds and gold. I don't think either is gonna happen. So here we are. Post-truth, post-facts, post-reason. And one of our two major political parties is going to ride that train to its conclusion no matter how tragic. I just can't shrug my shoulders and be blase about the possibility of spending the final 40% of my life staring at that possibility without having a major snit fit every now and then.
