  1. ***Cool story alert*** I met Matthew Modine last year, actually. My wife was going on about him in some rom com but when I shook his hand, I said "Private Joker!" He smiled. ***Cool story over***
  2. I always thought he was crafty and played stupid to the rubes. After watching some of these videos, I'm starting to wonder if he's legitimately stupid. It's hard to play as stupid as he's acting right now. "Look at this shopping cart!!!"
  3. Yeah, $400 to feed his crew for a week is ridiculous. I can feed an entire family for $100. Might not be great food but I can. (Those fat $5 rotisserie chickens from either Sam's or Costco are gold.) Mix in some spaghetti (also cheap) and throw in one good meal with some steak/beef/whatever. Only way you'd drop $400 is by going to Whole Foods or Central Market. He knows better but his followers are all useful idiots.
  4. I like how non of his fan boys are questioning this. I'm in Big Food and $400 at a lower tier store in America is about 3-4 full carts. He has one half empty cart and he just says "$400!!!" and the fan boys just believe it.
  5. God he's such a fucking idiot. It would be hard for me to even play that stupid. We have so much cheap food that our poor people are fat for god's sake.
  6. Over 60% of Russians spend half their salary on food. Sounds great. Also, you can deliver food real cheap when you don't have to worry about food safety or paying people. I'm sure it's all a coincidence that the Tucker interview happened the same time Trump threatened to pull out of NATO, the House refusing to vote on Ukraine aid, and Russia wanting nukes in space. I'm sure all of those happening within 2 weeks is just random, right?
  7. Moral victories and polls are like recruiting rankings.
  8. We have two parties and one is literally broke financially, is at war with itself, and has lost almost everything in the last eight years but let's report on how old the candidate is from the other party.
  9. The MSM is such a fucking beating. They're trying to hard to be "balanced" that they're wildly unbalanced to one side.
  10. User name is very relevant here. Well done. Just stop being poor and stop being sick. Problem solved.
  11. Gen X is now old enough know that medical problems can be completely random and we'd rather them not ruin our lives financially even if we survive. So yeah, Team Obamacare here.
  12. Again, the Republican candidate underperformed their polling by 5-7 points. This has been consistent since Dobbs. Everyone knows abortion is the single driving issue here but no one in the media wants to talk about it. They just roll with whatever the Republicans are carping about that day:
  13. Maybe it's like voters don't like being told their 10 year old daughters might be forced to have a baby.
  14. While I generally agree with that, the personal bankruptcy laws were written for cases like this to begin with. Most all of the other bills are up to date except for this one large medical expense. You're generally right, though, that a lot of people that declare bankruptcy later end up in the same problems years later for the same reasons that got them in trouble to begin with. His primary house and retirement accounts are protected and those vital to his retirement. Assuming he's around 50, he needs to start putting away much more into retirement, especially considering the wife can't/won't work. (Still don't understand this but that's not going to change here.) If he has any hope of a decent retirement, he needs to let the debt go and save as much as he can.
  15. I read on the Interwebs that she was only dating him for his playoff bonus:
  16. How about just stop paying on the CC altogether? He's going to pay well over $125K paying this $90K off and at the end of the day, it's not like he's getting a plaque or something for having a good credit score and he'd be better off putting that +$100K towards retirement.
  17. Mentioned this in one of the other threads but the podcast "Plain English with Derek Thompson" recently had an episode titled "The Gender War Within Gen Z." It's not your imagination. The more incel type guys are becoming more conservative/right wing while the girls are becoming more liberal. He looks at not only the US but also Western Europe and South Korea. He gets into the how and why. Really good episode to the point I've listened to it twice.
  18. Of course we all don't like Taylor Swift. We're a bunch of middle aged men. I'm 50 years old and she writes songs for young women with cracked iPhones driving used Honda Civics. You don't have to like something to understand why it's popular. It's basic economics and business.
  19. Both of these. The incel types I keep seeing are such a fucking beating. No woman would want to spend 10 minutes with them let alone date/marry. Very good point about them being online their entire lives. Also a good point about going to where women actually are. Stop listening to Joe Rogan or something and go to a yoga class or run group. (Run groups are also predominantly women.) If I wasn't married, I could throw so much leg at the yoga studio I go to. They all know my wife so they don't openly hit on me. The wife and I even joke about it. There is a VERY good podcast out there right now about this. "Plain English with Derek Thompson" is part of the Ringer network. He dropped one last week titled "The Gender War Within Gen Z" and looks at why and how young men are becoming more conservative while young women are becoming more liberal. He looks at the US, Western Europe, and South Korea. I've listened to this twice and it's VERY good. In short, young men feel they have fewer and fewer sexual/dating options. (They actually don't but that's the point.)
