    Don't EVER help an old with their computer or phone.

    You will get blamed for every issue they have with their shit after that 

    To be fair, this reaction is not limited to just olds.

    see definition 2

    and, tbh, definition 1 also fits

    Yeah this is a better explanation vs he has dirt on all of them.  For one not ALL of them have dirt they want hidden.  Many, maybe most, but not ALL.  Second, we are supposed to believe that this idiot has a grand plan to secretly gather dirty intel on all of these folks and use it to blackmail them?  I'd bet dollars to doughnuts he can't even spell "blackmail."

    I’m not a math major, but that was more than a half century ago. Probably the last VP picked to try and win a crucial state 

    Bentsen albeit in a losing effort.

  4. I worked at my uncle's dry cleaner a couple summers when I was in HS.  There is only one starch.  Light, regular, heavy, whatever, it's all the same.  I was taught to just say OK, heavy (or light, or regular) starch, no problem, when taking it in.  And when handing clean clothes over, look at the tag and repeat, heavy (or light, or regular) starch.  No one ever complained.  Oh, and I never got tipped.  Although occasionally the register was out of balance at the end of the day and if it was over, I'd keep it.

  5. It would actually be kinda clever if Trump purposely called him "Bidden."  You know, like for sale, available to the highest bidder.  Of course he's a dumbass so at best it's a typo and at worst, he really thinks that's how it's spelled.

    Well, some credit to you then for not automagically assuming that Hunter the fuckup has included his Dad in his nasty schemes, beyond his surname, and maybe an introduction or two.

    Because that's the whole right wing spin here.  That is currently almost devoid of evidence, except for some cryptic references to "the Big Guy."

    There is exactly one (1) cryptic reference to the "Big Guy."

    The gist of it is that it came from highly questionable sources** and had been tampered with extensively, with the understanding that a forensic image of the computer, fresh out of the hands of its owner, is about the only acceptable standard of proof of computer evidence in a criminal court.

    Turns out, it can be confirmed that it was Hunter Biden's computer.  And some of the email and other information on it (dick pix) are authentic.  Once the MSM had proof of that, they admitted it.

    But, even with that being the case, there is far from any smoking gun of criminal activity, much less criminal activity involving Joey Two Scoops.  It does bolster the notion that Hunter is a raging addict trading heavily off the Biden name to fund the lifestyle of a raging addict.

    And this guy:

     

    And a number of Giuliani related sources had apparently viewed and "tampered with" the computer before it got to anyone credible.

    This might be a nitpick, but I don't think they confirmed that it was Hunter's computer, due to the aforementioned chain of custody issues.  They were able to confirm some (most?) of the emails by tracing them back through servers as well as contacting recipients.

    Austin is so desperate to be a real city, but continues time and time again to fall flat on its face.  We're a homeless guy in an evening gown, stumbling around trying to get admitted to fancy restaurants for dinner.  Only the places with drunk hostesses think we're cool and let us in.  I know it won't happen, but I'd sure like to see this pandemic bump in population evaporate into thin air.  Surely people who moved here in the last couple of years have to be asking themselves, "What the fuck have I done?".   The airport is half the size it needs to be, the traffic is as bad as cities four times its size, and you can't even find a fucking primary care physician who can see you sooner than six months from now.  Austin does not have the infrastructure, private industry, or anything else to satisfy a population half its size, despite the city drowning in tax dollars to play with.  What a shit show.

    Other than that, how was the play, Mrs. Lincoln?

    When someone says Biden hasn't done a good job, ask for specifics. They won't be able to go very deep in how Biden has done a poor job, and like Hannity, they will quickly want to jump topics.

    When they're caught without info, they will inevitably jump to senility. And I agree that Biden is not as sharp as he once was, but ask how that has negatively impacted his performance.

    LOL like an argument based on logic will work with those folks.

    Agree, because dealerships will upsell you on some BS that you don't need or could do yourself.

    Some manufacturers have limits on what an OTC scanner can see or do within their ECM/PCM. Unless you have a snap-on solus (or similar with OE "keys" then you can retrieve the code. If it's a gas cap slap some Vaseline on that thing and she'll be good. Spit will work short term (that's what she said).

    username checks out.

    The “Blacks for Trump” group is being paid to do that. I thought that was pretty well known. 

    I've always assumed they're getting paid, Occam's Razor and whatnot, but never seen any hard evidence of such.  Like one of them posting their paycheck.

  12. My first thought on seeing that bill, and googling the phone number to see it's a fancy Hyatt in a rather nice part of San Diego, is that $35 pp, half price per kid, is kinda cheap for a breakfast buffet.

    My second thought is that you should check this thread for ideas on getting even:

    I liked Sammy Hagar pre VH and I loved VH with DLR.  Van Halen with Sammy? Pass.  

    I always say, the best part of a VH concert with Sammy was when they do all his old songs.  Well, that and whatever variation of Eruption EVH plays.
