  1. Ahh yes, the official look of the MAGA base: "THUMB WITH GOATEE"
  2. On the one hand, he's clearly full of shit and lying, because being a lying sack of shit is a religious sacrament in MAGA world. On the other hand.... Having one of the most punchable faces in the history of humanity does lend a bit of credibility to his story. So, this is a tough call. Either way, the correct answer is "definitely punch that douchenozzle in the face if you ever get the chance."
  3. You stayed for two run throughs of the album. Would you say you…lingered?
  4. Pretty sure that’s the point. Take everything to the brink of death, shove the cancer over the cliff while you teeter on the edge.
  5. Man. If only we had as well-functioning a democracy and justice system as…..fucking Brazil.
  6. She’s fine with that, so no worries, you and Gil can meet for beers.
  7. Oh....and I did. Don't lie, if you're of a certain age, you know ALL the Carpenters songs. She could, but.... ...also this. No apologies, no ragrets. And....if it increased your chances of scoring (and it often did), all the better.
  8. Also this. Straight dudes don’t think about other dudes’ sexual preferences. We’re too busy thinking about chicks. Seriously, it occupies most non-work waking thoughts for most of your life (sports, hunting, fishing, and food occupy the rest of your brain). If you’re contemplating whether another dude is gay, it’s likely because you’re closeted and fantasizing. NTTAWWT. Be you, man. Just suck some dick already, Matt.
  9. “Summer Long Balls” was one of Ray Wylie Hubbard’s best songs. I’m pretty sure I’m remembering that right.
  10. You musta missed that opener against NC State where we got FUCKED.
  11. Unless you’re a mediocre enough lover that your partner just lays there. So, you’re probably safe.
  12. Your in-laws are shitheels who are beyond redemption and would vote for Satan himself because there’s a rumor of a trans kid playing middle school volleyball in Oregon. Stop imagining things are any other way.
  13. Negged. Thought it was gonna be a pic of some gal bending over to adjust your IV.
  14. Sure, but have you considered the fact that he’s all Mexican-y and stuff? GOOD RIDDANCE!
  15. Oh, that’s easy, I’ve seen it firsthand: they blame Obama and Biden for not building flood control dams (no mention of where, of course, or the fact that it would condemn 10k acres of their neighbors land) etc., or for sinister weather modification that made the tornado happen. I’m not exaggerating here. This is actually their response.
  16. The people with real money at stake discuss facts. Threats to your multimillion/billion dollar bottom line are apolitical. But on an individual level? See the leopards eating people’s faces phenomenon. People flat-out act against their own (and their community’s) interests in favor of idiotic brainwashed performative bullshit.
  17. Pretty soon, all the guys on your construction crews are gonna start dressing like this to throw the Gestapo off their scent….
  18. Counterpoint: there is nothing more aggressively straight than totally debasing yourself and betraying. Your core values for some pussy. I once spent an evening sitting on a sofa with a gal drinking box wine and listening to the Carpenter’s Greatest Hits just to close the deal. That, my friends, is how undeniably hetero I am.
  19. I was like 7 or so on one of our family visits to Mexico, and I ordered a glass of OJ at some little restaurant. It was great, and I asked my mom why OJ tasted so great in Mexico. “That’s because they only serve fresh OJ here honey.” Huh. “Why don’t you serve fresh OJ at home?” She just glared at me, and continued to serve that frozen glop for the rest of my childhood.
  20. As a nation, we are flat-out gonna stupid ourselves to death.
  21. Or a high school kid taking turns making out with a high school girl he just met…and her mom…while they all drank from a canteen full of tequila at a Jimmy Buffet concert at Southern Star at Astroworld. Man, would be awkward if THAT was on camera.
  22. My daughter is starting a masters program at the University of Bonn. Tuition is something like $1,500 a year. Yeah, you need to test at a relatively high level of German language, but then most all of the instruction is in English. Truly can’t beat the price. Now…will it translate into good job opportunities? We’ll find out. But for real, there are definitely some bargains and values to be had in Canada, the UK, and the rest of Europe.
  23. Please update on all food including oysters. Will be in Maine in a week.
  24. SO much worse. When you create the world's third best-funded military....solely for internal use....it's going to get used, a lot. And not in a good way.
  25. Oh, and on the "release the Epstein files" as a whole picture, here's the facts and problems. 1) a NORMAL administration doesn't just "release investigative files." The documents, interviews, etc., were part of a criminal investigation. First, you don't release them while the investigation is ongoing (which is why there were several years when they were never going to be released). Then, even when the criminal investigation is over, they don't release documents that--while they may be embarrassing, or may even provide evidence that someone did something illegal--do NOT rise to the level of supporting an indictment. Not that I'm interested in morally cutting anyone any slack, but let's say there is a detailed log of everyone who ever flew on a plane with Jeffrey Epstein. That alone is NOT proof that every one of those people screwed underage girls, trafficked them, etc. Seriously, it's not a good idea to hang around a creep like Epstein at all, and I question your judgment if you do, but maybe y'all were just flying to go see a football game. He wasn't boning young girls 24/7, so merely having evidence that "person X spent time with Epstein" isn't going to support criminal charges, and the government isn't going to release it just to give the public fodder to say "oh yeah? Joe Schmoe was on Epstein's plane! KIDDIE DIDDLER!" 2) SO....in normal world, IF (big if, by the way) a full and thorough criminal investigation was conducted and everyone who merited being charged with a crime was indeed charged, then you'd know about the relevant evidence as it was introduced in their prosecution, and you would never know about the other evidence and documents that were NOT used in the prosecution. That's not sinister or secretive, it's how it works in ANY criminal matter. Could be a drug dealing prosecution, they aren't going to publish the names of every person in Danny Drug Dealer's phone contacts (FFS, he has the number of a great chinese delivery joint in there, because Danny digs him some kung pao). 3) but this isn't normal world. We had an administration and functionally all of its mouthpieces and functionaries a) actually campaign on "release the files!" and then b) when they took power, they made big shows of "here, I have a big white binder with a totally salacious list that the previous guys didn't want you to ever see - and I'm gonna show it to you!" That is outside of all of the norms and procedures and safeguards discussed in items 1 and 2 above. 4) so, here we are. Abnormal dipshits promised to reveal ALL THE STUFF.....that they now don't want to reveal. Maybe that's because there's no "there" there. Maybe it's because if they reveal it, their guy is going to look really, really bad (along with some other people). Maybe that's because someone grasped items 1 and 2 above, and realized that while there may be a lot of evidence of people who spent time with Epstein, that evidence doesn't rise to the level of supporting any criminal charges of kiddie diddling. But it would sure get tongues wagging. Or maybe it's some combination of all of those things. What it boils down to is that the admin and its flunkies promised they'd do something, without ANY fucking idea what was actually there and how shit works. And now, they are stuck by their own stupidity. As to kiddie diddling, I sure as shit don't have any "team." If there's a video of Bill Clinton screwing a 14 year old, prosecute the fuck out of him, I don't care. If there's the same for Trump, do the same. What I suspect is that there's a lot of stuff that's smoke, and would make a lot of powerful people look bad, but the evidence doesn't rise to the level of fire. And now, the idiot dog caught the car, and it turns out the car contains some stuff that will make the dog look bad too. So, what to do? Fuck 'em, they set a standard they can't now follow, and they're getting pilloried for it. Serves 'em right. Oh, and was there likely, at some point or another, evidence to support greater charges/other prosecutions, but prosecutors engaged in a cover-up to protect some powerful people? I would be 100% unsurprised by that, in fact I would probably bet on it.
