     I never get why people fear the fringes taking over. 

    Oh idk maybe because Trump won in 2016, came close to winning again last year, and the next Trump probably won't be a complete fucking buffoon and will be capable of working within the system.

    Truth be told, the whole market is just a large scale roulette wheel....but it beats any of the alternatives (until it doesn't)

    Horseshit.  When I make a trade that works out it is because I am a big brained captain of industry who understands the market and when I fuck up it is because the market is completely irrational and untethered from any kind of fundamentals.

    And if a business requires you to be wearing shoes and a shirt, and I wear neither, can I sue them?

     

    The court has established precedent on this in the case of Spicoli v. Hamilton, where they sided squarely with businesses.

  4. The main thing that surprises me is that we've gotten 10 pages deep in this thread without the keto cheerleaders taking over the thread with a bunch of pompom waving about how if you eat more than 1 gram of carbs ever you might as well drink a gallon of bleach.

    I suppose it could be a supply/demand argument, but in some places, it’s hard to find healthy food. My son served at Fort Polk. Lots of fats around that area. We went to a popular restaurant and I was so amazed by the menu I had to take a photo

    Find something healthy on that thing.

    I'm sure the coleslaw is made with a delightful vinaigrette and isn't just a bunch of cabbage with mayo dumped on it.

    I like this idea.  I've always felt Texas' color-palate needed an update as well.  And more talking animals.  

    Also, there's not enough violence in Wes' movies.  But I'd like to see something where Dan Patrick is violently removed from office by his own supporters and ends up with some whimsical instrument (to use your terms) impaled down his throat.  Like a glockenspiel or some other percussion instrument made by a progressive hipster craftsman---played by Jason Schwartmann. 

    Based on previews I think this might actually be pretty close to one of the vignettes in French Dispatch. 

  7. "He said at a meeting in June that he had collected Styrofoam and more than 50 wine bottles to make molotov cocktails but had held off on buying fuel “to avoid . . . being hit with a conspiracy charge,” according to the complaint filed against him. He told the undercover agent he had been saving motor oil from his car for that purpose. "

    Attention everyone at this gathering of people who are gathered for the purpose of engaging in a conspiracy to overthrow the government.  I am not going to buy one ingredient for these mootov cocktails because I am a very smart person and want to avoid conspiracy charges.

     Any good diet is expensive now.

    This is surly.  We are all 1%ers who have personal chefs serving meals to us and our height/weight proportionate supermodel wives.
