@Jolly said in The Best: Gentlemen, you don't eat at Commander's, you dine. Did you wear your greasy coveralls to your wedding? TBH, I don't actually wear any of that scruffy shit anyway if I'm going somewhere nice but I'm not wearing a jacket. At least they don't require a tie. Looking at the menu, it's not actually that expensive. It does look nice.

Is there a prophecy about a hole spewing hot water at the bottom of the ocean?

The price of milk will be going up in Texas...

@Doctor-Phibes said in Hay Cats! Your AOC post of the day: your former President My former president, do you mean Jimmy Carter? He is a genius.

@George-K said in Is President Trump Actually the Dear Leader?: @Axtremus said in Is President Trump Actually the Dear Leader?: A democracy is not and should not be a personality cult. Nor should a representative constitutional republic... But, to your point. Yes, you've definitely had a couple of personality cults as President this century. Britain came within one letter of having a cult of a personality with BoJo.

I think elephants are famous for this also.

@Jolly said in The Copycats: @taiwan_girl said in The Copycats: @Jolly said in The Copycats: Read your own linked article. The 911 caller did not know for sure whether any of the staff were armed or even if the staff that she thought might normally carried firearms were on the school grounds. Do better. I am pretty sure she just didn't make it up. So, she must have knowledge that at some days, staff carried weapons. I am sure she did not personally check each staff member every day, but it would be weird for her to say that to 911 if she didn't have knowledge of it. You're still guessing. LOL. I am basing it on the transcript of the 911 call. However, Did I personally see the staff members. No, I did not. Still love you Jolly. You always make me think!

Putting on my @George-K hat And you are surprised because why? Anyways, Happens all the time. Jared Kushner raising USD$2B for a venture capital fund from Middle East countries with no prior experience running such a fund. Hunter Biden on board of foreign company with no prior experience in that area. Actors/actresses/singers/business executives, etc etc etc

All for it. The federal government has no legitimate reason to control education through financial coercion. Carters worst mistake.

Good for him.

A very valid observation.

@LuFins-Dad said in No jail time: Good thing we have a devout Catholic President. Headboard Harris is Catholic?

They already call him that.

Ok so that was ridiculously easy. Popped out the (failed) valve core and installed a replacement. Took maybe…35 seconds of work?

@Klaus said in Hey guys over 45: @George-K said in Hey guys over 45: @Klaus said in Hey guys over 45: I found it rather enjoyable... Are you trying to come out tell us something (which @jon-nyc suspected anyway)? I'm coming out as a leg puller

If I was paying a union to represent me and they pulled this crap I’d scream to the high heavens. Complete dereliction of duty. Increasing diversity is not their function in any way.
