  1. if you are not gun people, my only recommendation is to choose a caliber and weapon that does not have a ton of recoil. And often people are not as familiar with a semi-automatic, and working the slide is hard for some people. My recommendation is to get a Ruger LCR revolver in .327. this will go against the grain of many people here, but I don’t think I need to go against the entire zombie nation, I most likely will need to defend my home against intruders looking to steal stuff. That Ruger revolver means you can shoot the very effective and powerful .327 cartridge, but also 32 magnum 32 regular and 32 short. You will be able to find a cartridge that you can manage without flinching. Being accurate and placing your shots is far more important than having some hand cannon that you can’t hit what you were aiming at. Lastly, a revolver is as uncomplicated as it gets and is a reliable weapon. I’m an older guy and so I love me some wheel guns. My final suggestion would be that when you purchase them, you take them to a gun range and find out which ammo caliber and brands your gun likes and you like. When you find the right ammunition that you will be using for self protection, make sure you practice at the range with that exact ammunition. You need to be comfortable and proficient firing your gun. Anything less than being comfortable and skilled is a danger to you and a danger to others. if you ever need to use it, you do not want to be nervous and unfamiliar with using it. Good luck.
  2. As was correctly said, the first half was a hockey game and the second half was ballet. “Letting them play” in the first half was an advantage for the aggressive, physical coogs. That Houston defense not regulated by whistles made it pretty damn tough on us. All credit to Houston for their style of play and their taking advantage of the refs allowing a hackathon. When they flipped the switch at halftime and decided to call everything - I think Florida was a little better at adjusting quicker to the new normal. it would’ve been a better game if the calls had been consistent both halves. They weren’t.
  3. Like the seas, my stomach was angry this morning, my friend…
  4. I think we’re the only program ever to have won three in both football and basketball
  5. I could see Vic and Sr. Charles going out on an epic double date.
  6. i’m too drunk to remember if the guys who fouled out were shooters or athletes
  7. I think I’m ahead of the curve, buddy
  8. I don’t think you’ve been watching baseball lately, kind sir. we just got swept at home by Vandy
  9. I had just assumed they would’ve watched you and just took it to the paint more. But that nonchalant steady piece thing they did to beat Duke seemed to be to be a bad idea with 26 seconds left. I was more worried they’d take it to the hoop and get it tied up on a foul, and the gators would choke it away in a full court press in Houston score to win. We had a hard time with Auburn when they pressed, and I expected the cogs to give us even more problems. Honestly, I was very shocked at their last shot selection process. Don’t care. I will take the NC on their mistakes as well as a miracle gator shot.
  10. Ok. Cool. Go Gators!
  11. None filled with as many deranged assholes as this one. Advantage Texas!
  12. I just think it’s cute that you two formed your own “We got our ass beat by the Florida Gators despite leading late and choked” Club. Don’t let anybody see your secret handshake.
  13. Oh no! You’ve stolen all the joy of my national championship game. Nah……
  14. Counterpoint: BWAHAHA SHIIIIIIIT YEAH!!
  15. “Perhaps you’d prefer to avoid the red tape?”
  16. Ernest Borgnine as a bad guy was fun to watch. Lee Marvin was also great as a baddie. Not as awesome as his Liberty Valance portrayal, but still good.
  17. Is Black Lung DEI?
  18. it’s like saying, let’s return to the days of our patriot forefathers and I will use tariffs to change America into a small agrarian farm economy. We aren’t going back to small family farms and we aren’t going back to giant factories full of machinists and sewing machines. It’s almost like we had an industrial revolution that replaced the agricultural revolution, and that future technological advances changed our economy away from an industrial one. I have it on good authority that the orange God will bring back coal, so phone me when that happens so I can cheer on the industrial revolution.
  19. Like Putin‘s Special Military Operation being a complete success, Trump’s Special Trade Developments are successful Whether Putin’s SMOs or Trump‘s STDs, Dear Leader may cancel them and announce success!
  20. Bought the dog food. My prepper gene kicked in, and I bought a bunch of dried food and canned goods and powdered mashed potatoes and condensed milk, sugar, flour and such. And coffee. Lots of coffee
  21. Down 1631
  22. “MAGA Ivermectin Suppository For Promise Ring Malfunctions” You bring up an excellent point. It’s still all in the marketing.
  23. Drug resistant gonorrhea? How quickly can Surly create and distribute an ivermectin vaginal suppository to sell to the rubes? It’s not like we have to worry about FDA approval anymore. We’re gonna need all of the wreath refund money and a couple swabs from Vic.
