  1. I had a short summer relationship with this young lass I'd met.  She stayed over one night and we took a shower together.  After the shower we were getting dressed and she had a very strange, almost pained look on her face.  I had no idea why and I didn't ask.  Later, I went back in the bathroom and I saw the towel I used hanging over the shower rod and there was a HUGE brown streak on the towel.  I guess I didn't clean myself very well in the shower.  Good times.
    Did you floss your ass crack with the towel? How does that happen? Bidet for the win.

  2. What you think is crazy and what I think is crazy are two different things. There are unknowns on both sides of this. All of the available data shows that youngsters are at very little risk from covid. It’s completely reasonable to not vaccine your young children in this unique case. I’m also saying you are not foolish to have your young children vaccinated for covid. For those of you who might think I’m generally antivax read my first post on this topic. My whole family has been fully vaccinated.
    What I don't get is that between the "unknown" long term effects of Covid versus the vaccine, you're on the side of Covid being the lesser long term harm to kids. And this appears, by media accounts, to be a common view. How do you arrive at that view?
  3. I remember during a free period in our last semester he kinda-sorta came out to a few of us and we were all like "No doy, whiskey-named gay dude." And we all said behind his back we were glad that was over and that he seemed really cool and it was a shame how he'd walled himself off from everybody. It was a strange free period, very Breakfast Club in real life; multiracial as well as his deal. We'd all kind of decided to discard whatever masks we'd been wearing and talked like we'd taken truth serums. 
    We all know you're talking about Ol Gay Glenlivet.
  4. I have no idea and I don't really care.  I think both she and Trump should never hold office.  They are both terrible people. 
    You're a terrible piece of shit. AOC is a very good person. The fact that you conflate her with Trump shows what a wingnut dumbass you are.

    Just got Pfizer #2. They told me not to laminate my card, which I was planning on doing, because of the booster. But I plan to start traveling very soon. So wouldn't it be better to laminate the card to avoid hassles that would arise if it were to get damaged?

    I think in six months when lots of people are getting boosters they'll just be issuing new cards or have some digital system set up.

    Office Depot will apparently photocopy your card in wallet size and laminate for you. I think it is free.

    That's a great idea.

  7. [mention=684]Onboard 2.0[/mention] [mention=2618]David Dennison[/mention] Please stop that shit. Let's talk about how to fix things and explore if there's room to meet in the middle. 
    Saw Climate Change mentioned. Let's discuss. I believe humans have been contributing, but realistic ways to respond to it? Haven't seen that yet. 
    Dude, there's no fucking compromise anymore. Republicans saw to that decades ago. There's only obtaining and maintaining power. Whoever has it wins.
  8. I’m a white parent and have those thoughts.  I’ve honestly considered whether I’d let my daughter go to A&M.  I’ve got plenty of friends and family that went there and turned out fine, so I know it isn’t logical.  But TexAgs is just so repulsively racist and anti intellectual I have trouble believing none of that is reflected in real life.  
    A good buddy of mine is a TXAM grad and very progressive. But he also always joked about being a 2%er, never cared about sports, school spirit, and doesn't have a clue what TexAgs is. I'm sure he'd be abhorred if he ever perused it. I visited him I'm CS once, right after the bonfire collapse in fact, and all his friends seemed to share his world view.

    So I suspect schools, even the SEC schools, have a fair amount of progressive types. But my friends are mostly white/latino liberals, so I can definitely see the concern a black parent would have for a kid who wouldn't have a natural set of friends to absorb into a school with lots of known racial hostility.

    Glad this prick got what he deserved. In listening to the commentary after the verdict by some of the leaders in the black community, it would be nice if they would at least suggest that people better themselves also in addition to pleading for reform. Let’s be frank, a very high percentage of the people who have killed by police in recent times have been shitbags. Should they have been killed because of it?  No.  Can they at least plead with people not to act like fucksticks when they have interactions with police?  It’s really not that hard to do.  A lot of reform is needed and it’s not just with policing these days. 

    "Sorry he got murdered by the police, but maybe if he would have been a better person the murderous police wouldn't have been so murderous." Yeah, that's what any human would say right after this verdict. Dumb ass.
