  1. You have also made Cousin Eddie's list. Get ready to have his septic system sprayed all over your yard.
  2. This right here about Celina’s head coach is so infuriating. Meanwhile your son is torturing junior high athletes. No way he didn’t know something was amiss there.
  3. First off screw both of these schools. One names their stadium after a coach who presided over a team where he knowingly turned a blind eye towards his players raping students. The other has a head coach that assigned his son to the junior high where he engaged in being a pedophile and apparently molested junior high boys. @Ghost of LL needs to either be there in-person in the pedo bear suit or get it to someone that will show up and take pictures with these idiots. This is one where I root for the asteroid to make an appearance. Two trash towns that deserve the worst for caring more about football and shielding the coach’s kid from law enforcement in one case and throwing a name on the stadium of a guy who should be exiled to a Siberia Penal colony. https://www.cbsnews.com/amp/texas/news/new-info-former-celina-teacher-coach-caleb-elliott-child-porn-scandal/
  4. Still not sure how UNLV got to 10 wins this year. Conference should be better next season overall.
  5. I remember one time working with a dishwasher in NYC and I bring a plate back with most of the shrimp still on it. I’m about to throw it away and looks at me and says “Can I have it?” Umm yeah sure have at it. “Remember him saying jackpot when I handed him all those shrimp. /notRedLobster
  6. I’m rooting for the Socceroos and Paraguay. Beat the piss out of the US and I hope Pulisic tears both ACL’s in the first match. Die Mannschaft is my team thanks to my German born and raised father, but I’ll be rooting for Mexico to have a deep run and Canada as well. Mostly Mexico though out of the two for obvious reasons.
  7. It’s about time to crank this one up. 2nd favorite Christmas movie. Going to try to sit down and watch it this weekend once I settle into my new apartment.
  8. You’re correct. It absolutely matters even if the documentation is not directly for the benefit of any of us living through this. We don’t have a lengthy overall history of humans being able to document things on a grand scale, but in the few hundred years we’ve had societies that can read, write and have access to a printing press, the Nazis have had no peer in the documentation of evil. So much has been lost or destroyed, but even with that they left behind so much evidence of their atrocities in writing that people can still write new books about what they did.
  9. I recall as a kid that my uncle had a chow. I was 8 or 9 and that sucker chased me one day and I had to jump over the fence to get away. Still don’t know why he did that since I had very little in the way of interactions with that dog. I came back with my mom the next day and he finished the job from the day before as we were walking in the gate and it took a chunk out of my backside. When we’re at the hospital getting patched up I remember my mom believing me about the dog chasing me the day before for no reason. Have not liked that breed of dog since that incident. Only dog in my entire life that was like that towards me.
  10. Since rules no longer matter just rewrite them once the US comes out on the other side of this one day. The only thing morons understand is being firm and forceful. Being nice once this is over just invites more of this idiocy. Go through every lower court appointment and nuke anyone that has rulings even resembling anything these six are ruling in favor of. Man what a time to be alive to see the US become 1920’s Italy except with far more money and an actual functioning military.
  11. This is not how the highest court in a functioning democracy works. This is how it works in a fascist nation. Folks if you haven’t made plans to get out of Dodge yet you might want to. At least relocate to a different state than Texas.
  12. Incompetent fascists. These guys are making Mussolini look like Alexander the Great.
  13. Stumbled right into the best movie I have seen this year. I think that even @billfromlaketravis will like this. I love Colorado and this movie is set in the San Luis Valley. One of the harsher yet beautiful areas of Colorado. A massive fire wiped out a bunch of homes and people come together to start over. What a masterpiece of a movie. I think this is one that will resonate with almost everyone who posts here. Josh O’Connor, a Brit, does a great job in this role. I’m more familiar with him from his work in the UK, but he really nailed this role.
  14. Costello’s book was really enjoyable to read. Spector’s book was a good read as well for broad knowledge on what transpired. I will read pretty much anything on The Pacific War since it’s the focus of what I study the most. I try to mix in plenty of reading from authors giving the Japanese perspective as well. It’s interesting and worth it to read about why Japan acted the way they did and how a good deal of their foreign policy came about because of the actions of other countries (Mostly the United States and Britain, but not entirely) towards them both well before and after the First World War.
  15. If you are going to lie on behalf of the fascists currently in charge then yes his career deserves to come to an end and he should at a later point get a court-martial whenever the country comes out of this. You either protect and defend the constitution that you swore an oath to or you get ex-communicated from the military completely due to shameful actions like this. We’re about to find out.
