  1. The irony is that these people are the ones who shout "IDENTITY POLITICS ARE BAD!"...and then vote primarily on identity politics. On the issues, and how they would actually like this country to work, Dem (and importantly, NOT GQP) policies match up best to their beliefs. But they just can't bring themselves to vote for a woman or minority, so.....goshdarnit, they just HAVE to vote for Trump, a classic white male shitbag. So. Fucking. Stupid. The people who hate "identity politics" vote based primarily on identity politics.
  2. Apparently, she's some sort of online personality (which includes a chapter of being a low-tier OnlyFans skank) sociopath. What a world.
  3. Fucking. Dumbass. They fucking TOLD you what they planned to do. They did it. To you. And NOW you are surprised and disappointed by the obvious, inevitable, and completely forecast consequence of your vote. I know, I know, that's the whole subject of this thread, but as much experience and perspective as I now have in life, I will never stop being surprised at how utterly stupid some people are.
  4. My life philosophy and goal is "when you think of Ballinger, think of me." I've found that setting very modest life goals helps with overall happiness.
  5. I get the beef rib when there are 4 or more of us sharing the tray of cue. Then we just slice it into pieces, so everyone gets a nice taste. Because yeah, it's so damned rich.
  6. More like the book for me.
  7. Select targets of ease early and often. But always keep your eye out for quality targets of opportunity. The funny thing is, by that approach, you'll usually end up doing much better than you deserve. My success rate with women above my standing/quality was pretty damned high. Because when I saw a shot at someone good, I took it. That doesn't mean I never closed a deal with someone lower on the scale -- that happened too. But the simple act of putting yourself out there and actively engaging doesn't just up your odds of success, it ups the quality of your success. I'm not sure what's wrong with young males today -- I'm confident it's a combo of 100 different things. But damn. Dudes. Shake off the doldrums and go chase some ass. And spend 5 minutes making yourself worthy to chase ass.
  8. When a society completely collapses....all threads become gun threads.
  9. But who are we kidding? The real terms will actually be much worse.
  10. This chart is real: Dudes ain't getting laid. And it's largely because many of them aren't bangable. No, Melvin, the reason you aren't banging supermodels every day isn't because there are a billion Stacies out there, but a few Chads took em all. It's because you're a 6, with no social skills, no job/a shit job, and no ambition. You are "not a catch." And even if you were, expecting to bag a 10 is stupid and unrealistic. Aim for someone realistically within your range, shower, learn to carry on a conversation. And put down the fucking video game controller occasionally. Another thing that's also obvious: if you're a guy with any game, ambition, etc.....things have never been easier for you. Lots of women, and a lot fewer quality men for them to get with. The odds are in your favor.
  11. FIF accuracy, as the answer is "yes." All their rhetoric about "protecting women" and such is a tissue-paper thin cover for their actual view: women have no agency, and no role in society other than what men (specifically, their father, and then husband) allow. It wasn't a slip-up. It's what they actually think.
  12. I mean, it's only fair to give a mulligan. First day and all.
  13. 1st day of school, too. So, that's a fun start to the school year. I mean, I guess we should be relieved that they weren't shot. Silver linings and all that.
  14. All. They do. Is lie. Continuously, and outrageously. There are no restraints, no guardrails. They just say whatever they want as facts. Objectively, it's fascinating to watch. Subjectively, it's horrifying to watch a 250 year old nation ended by utter fucking shitheels of no real merit.
  15. So, see, Ray Kroc bought into this hamburger restaurant.....
  16. So, am probably on my own for dinner tonight. I COULD order the kind of pizza I want that nobody else wants to eat (sausage, pepperoni, mushroom, anchovies). OR, I could hit some leftovers and things in our freezer. We have leftover mashed potatoes and a good bit of cream gravy. And we also have these (the boy bought them to show off for friends coming to town): So...which way do I go?
  17. Now, all that has to happen is Trump honors the deal he made, and doesn't back out of it. Thank goodness, nothing like that has ever happened, so all is good.
  18. I gotta tell ya.....the level of sexual futility and frustration in this country HAS to play a role in what we're going through. Between frustrated loser straight guys who can't figure out why OnlyFans models aren't dropping out of the sky into their laps, to do their bidding.....to closeted gay men acting as cruel and vengeful conservatives to channel their self-loathing....the whole world would be so much better off if these guys got real, got realistic, and fucking got LAID. You, straight incel - sorry, but you're a 6 with shitty social skills. You're never getting a 10. But there's a world full of 4s to 8s out there for the picking. Shower, learn how to have a conversation and get a laugh, and you'll be getting laid and be happy. You, closeted gay conservative. Just be yourself, and hook up with a dude. The joy you'll feel will put you over the moon. You won't have to hate anyone, including yourself. Instead, these guys are just getting angrier and angrier (I get it. The various dry spells in my life left me in a pretty shitty mood). And they have to vent that anger someplace, and here we are.
  19. Because....and this is really, really, really important....sending a message to minorities in this country that "no, you fuckers are second-class citizens...fuck, we don't think you're actually real citizens at all" is not just important, it's the cornerstone of our government now. "Remember your place, boy" - a nice old phrase - is now our new practical motto.
  20. QFMFT. It really is this simple. In short form, the cruelty is the point, and they LIKE it that way.
  21. ALL of the "confederate named" schools, streets, etc., the inclusion of the rebel flag on state flags, etc., were done as nods to and in support of segregation, Jim Crown, and not-subtle racial superiority bullshit. Every. Single. One. These weren't things that were done in 1862, and just stayed around after the war. They weren't done after some thoughtful discussion of the pros and cons of a state's history and involvement in the Civil War. Every last one of them was in response to efforts to give black people equal status and rights in our society, and to send a message of "boy, you best not forget who's really in charge around here." In that respect, every confederate monument, name, and the like is the equivalent of a burning klan cross. If you support the names, or re-naming, that's what you are: a giant, racist piece of shit. But, have no fear....being a giant, racist piece of shit ALSO means that you are a great American, and totally in favor by the ruling regime in most states and nationwide. So, hooray for you. The pieces of shit -- including you -- have won. Yay, shit!
  22. I know I've made this pitch before around here, but I was shocked to conclude that some of the best fries I've ever had are....Bill Miller BBQ. Because they have always used beef fat. Don't go there often (because there's not much else there we like, and there's not one nearby), but a small order from there is top notch. Salty Sow also has really good fries. What we CAN'T find here is a proper British chip: We get 'em when we're in the UK, but again....the order size is ridiculous. One side of them is more than my wife and I can eat.
  23. A shitload of this. When you tell your kids that the moon is made of green cheese, and do everything you can to prevent them from accessing alternate information....shit changes when they go to a university with an actual astronomy department, and a real moon rock on display. Then they come home and say "so, the moon is really made of rock and such," you get all pissed off because the lies/incomplete information you gave them went poof. That's not to say that young people are the best digesters of new ideas and information. They also hear certain ideas for the first time, and are enamored by them at a surface level, and their youthful energy and passion get out in front. That's how you also often have students taking absurd/extreme political positions at a campus protest or whatnot. But when you understand that an overly enthusiastic embrace of new/controversial ideas and theories is PART OF THE PROCESS OF DEVELOPING YOUR BRAIN, it's not that big a deal. We've had to roll our eyes plenty at some of the "absolutist" positions our kids have taken/stated from time to time. We know that time and experience will sand he edges off of those extremes. And we also know it's not the school or any "indoctrination" that gave them those thoughts. It's just the ordinary process of your worldview expanding.
  24. Quick summary: the boy has two british friends from uni visiting us. Last night, he introduced them to some "typical" american fare, which of course includes processed foods. Specifically, a cup of microwavable kraft mac and cheese. They also bought some Annie's organic mac and cheese earlier in the day. As one of the girls was eating it, and commented that "it's fine," she read the ingredients. "Look at this one. It has seven LINES of ingredients. The Annie's has seven ingredients total." Stuff like that is part of our problem. Want mac and cheese every once in a while? Buy Annie's. Or shit, make your own. Pasta, butter, flour, milk, cheese, a bit of S&P. But it also shouldn't be a staple. How many of us know families where there's a kid who ONLY eats chicken nuggets and mac and cheese? That's fucked up.
