  1. This whole bit is peak fucking @Rex Kramer. Just before recent Israeli strikes: Surly posters: It's a bummer that the deal prohibiting Iran's development is no longer in effect. It seems like they were complying withe deal before Trump cancelled it. Rex: You are all a bunch if Irani apologists, there's no way Iran was complying, the whole system is out of order! Surly posters: We are not apologizing, just pointing out there there is no longer an agreement for them to stop developing nuclear weapons. Rex: whatever, Israel has attacked, no longer relevant. ... attacks begin ... Surly posters: Continue to say that Trump struck down the deal banning Iran from developing nuclear weapons Rex: They weren't complying and stop blaming Trump Surly posters: Here's evidence they were complying Rex: I didn't know about that, but stop blaming Trump Surly posters: Here is the year that Trump struck down the deal Rex: whatever, I'm just tired of Trump being blamed
  2. Umm, can you point to a single post which you would characterize as "apologiz[ing] for the fucking Iranians", much less the repository for such posts? I see posts and tweets saying Iran was compliant with the previous deal (which Trump nullified), seems like you are saying they weren't? Independent bodies seem like they think Iran complied. @WineGuy69 - you also. Any actual evidence to say the UN nuclear watchdog is wrong or just "my team says so"?
  3. I dig the sentiment but I suspect that you wouldn't really want more detail on what A @Js1 wants to make great again. NTTAWWT.
  4. Can all of you chucklefucks keep Texas vs California talk out of this thread? It really would be nice to have an actual news thread.
  5. You very clearly have looked into Long Covid much more than I, so no comment from me on that, but do you have research supporting your statement that Covid vaccine injuries occur at a prevalence than other vaccine injuries? And by prevalence do you mean absolute number or rate?
  6. @Gil Bang or @immamac - can one of you change the title to remove the 4 dead part? I understand the reference but given there is a non-zero chance of deaths coming up it would be nice to know current state of this affair.
  7. @Hank Scorpio - just in case this spreads, do you have any leads on where to find hammocks?
  8. Olds think they are wise and tough and youth are dumb and weak. Same shit has been happening for hundreds of generations.
  9. I feel really fucking dirty here but to defend Rex, using Hitler as a reference specifically to how he treated other world leaders is a really stupid comparison. Hitler is not known for his treatment of world leaders. It'd be like if I said "The Derel has worse fashion sense than Jeffrey Dahmer". Yes Jeffrey wore some odd clothes and yes The Derel is the worst, but there are better exemplars to use if I want to specifically focus on fashion.
  10. Hawley doesn't give a shit if his constituents receive any aid or not, no skin off his back. He just wants to be able to say "hey I tried".
  11. Saw this on reddit but it entertains me and need to share this unimportant stat. As of today, before BOS-NYK game 6, in the eastern conference the 1-seed has 1 win, the 2-seed has 2 wins, the 3-seed has 3 wins, and the 4-seed has 4 wins.
  12. I think it's clear that Shoeless Joe Jackson committed the more heinous sin in intentionally throwing a game (and of course the fact that it was the world series makes it even more of a sin), yet remains a much more sympathetic figure than Pete Rose. Jackson clearly benefits from playing in an era where players had very little say in their contracts. He plead innocence but it sure seems like he participated in the fix to me. I can see why he has some support but tend to agree with @Beau Vine - fuck 'em both. Just give some extra fucks to Rose for his overall shittyness as a human being as well as betting on baseball.
  13. How long do you think a generation is? As I understand it most of the immigration you are talking about was ~1910. That's a lot longer than 3 generations. Doesn't mean we shouldn't have empathy but that's also a lot of time to stay an intentionally ignorant asshole.
  14. The cheese stuff is super dumb. So is the amount of time and attention that people pay in reading / preparing mock drafts, reading instant draft analysis, then giving draft grades when the large majority of impacts won't be known for several years. So it's a perfect match.
  15. hey @MAROON - fuck you too
