@Aqua-Letifer said in Shake Shack: @Mik said in Shake Shack: I have wondered if In-N-Out could maintain the level of quality they used to have while expanding. I don't think so.

Happy music for happy people...

What happens when the 12-year-olds know more about sex than the most syphilitic Parisian madames of the 18th. century? I don’t know.. Can anyone know with any certainty?

@George-K My understanding is that the Poles very much appreciated our willingness to share our spoils with them in this regard.

@Horace said in Pondering: So many public pubic intellectuals on TNCR. FIFY.

Poor Vlad. He's ronery.

Antifa is an interstate organization that routinely moves members around to organize, protest and many times, to commit violent acts. As such, they trip multiple criminal wires to bring Federal resources to bear. Yet, so far prosecutions have been fairly light and sentences have not been onerous. Federal involvement has not been heavy. Things that make you go hmmm...
