  1. The Supreme Court ruling about sending troops to Chicago gave me more relief than I’m willing to admit. If he had the green light to send federal troops to any Democratic city he deemed a threat, that would certainly encourage the coup attempt. Naturally, three justices were all for it. But still, very significant in avoiding what might’ve been.
  2. Why I still visit X occasionally.
  3. If those two were aligned instead of divergent, a lot of this country’s problems would likely be solved.
  4. it’s like when you think democracy is down and out, and then democracy suddenly sees a Farrah Fawcett poster!
  5. They won’t release the files, but it’s pretty clear that Saint Nick was a frequent visitor to Krampus Island.
  6. He should’ve said he would never do that in a million years because that was wrong. But he would absolutely enjoy seeing it if it somehow did happen. Which is likely what he actually meant before his eighth beer.
  7. If it was done in order to flee Columbus, Ohio - that would be a likely “not guilty”.

  9. There is literally nobody who loved Christmas more than my late father. His 9th Armor unit defended the crossroads town of St. Vith during the Bulge from 16 December until Christmas Eve, when Monty told them to find their way west to the 82nd airborne, who were creating an escape pocket. Staying inside a Sherman for eight or nine days in that cold was not pleasant according to dad. Something about conduction. But finally arriving safe behind Allied lines on Christmas Eve - and enjoying a hot Christmas dinner the next day when you’ve been convinced for a week you had to hold on until you died - made an indelible mark on his appreciation of Christmas. Merry Christmas to all. My Christmas miracle was I woke up in a soaking wet bed with no fever or blinding headache for the first time in four days. My dog had been staring at me, wondering why I suddenly hated him and refused to walk him. *not my dad‘s tank, but 7th armored Shermans at St. Vith. The seventh was at the northern end of the fortified goose egg, the 9th defended the southern end. Something about that photo relays just how cold it was.
  10. Sure you can. “ i’ve never understood watching porn on the screen that small…”
  11. And where you asking her out and then being shut down is instantly shared by the girl and viewed by your whole social network…
  12. In the same way Hitler was kind of antisemitic.
  13. WTF? Anyone who’s met me IRL (Immamac, Bolverk holla) can truthfully testify under oath that one Gatorubet is not a handsome man. And yet, even my pathetic self convinced 30 or so females to be willing sexual partners when I was a yute. What the hell is going on? After our company Christmas party, I wound up in the French Quarter that, as always, is filled to brim with holiday partiers. There were lots of really attractive younger women roaming around. But I noticed they were all in groups of five or six, and there was never any man with them. It was weird, just a huge number of really attractive women and no men to be seen. They were decked out in their cocktail dresses and wearing their Christmas finery. If I was 30-40 years younger, it would’ve been an amazing target rich environment. Again, what the hell is going on? Edit: having said that, literally hundreds of evidently smart women told me to go fuck myself… Do we have a generation of snowflakes that are so sensitive that after being shut down by some women, they just refused to swing the bat again? Swing. The. Fucking. Bat!!!
  14. Early 80s cocaine shenanigans does not prevent a really old guy from having a 65% ejection fraction and f’n great heart function. I’ve read…..
  15. I was talking to my brother the other day and he reminded me that we both went to Johnny football’s first gator loss at their shitty stadium. To quote him, “…at least we found out we never have to go there again”
  16. “We’re not playing the way we were in the middle of the season. Some people will say it’s because of the caliber of teams we played, but I don’t think so…”
