@LuFins-Dad Indeed, she can beat any Biden ticket that runs.

@George-K said in Gender Reveal Gone Wrong: I'm waiting for @Copper to opine on what happened here. I believe he took the instructions "just wing it" a bit too literally. RIP

@Jolly said in Freezing your Tesla off...: Miss, you can drop Europe into Texas. Jolly, from what I understand, it wasn't like people were trying to drive from Chicago to Seattle. It was just normal, everyday commuting and the Tesla drivers could not even do that.

"they had been manipulated into the plot by the FBI" Well....

@taiwan_girl said in RIP SI: @Jolly said in RIP SI: In the first place, journalism no longer exists. I agree. In a lot of cases now, it is just posting or writing the most outrageous stuff to get a higher number of "clicks" Nothing new, just a different version of "if it bleeds it leads". The difference is in the size of the megaphone.

Simply put, a hungry hunter hunts harder.

Not surprising at all about the health care costs and increasing administration. @mik is ahead of his time. There was a medical clinic in Oklahoma(?) that decided to not take any insurance - cash only. They could end up charging less and still make money.

Definitely a skill in being a sports announcer. A lot happening in a very short time. Each sport requires a bit different style I think.

@George-K said in Should immigrants possess firearms?: I remember an attorney who used to be here instructed me that the constitution says “The People” and not citizens. If that be the case, then anybody within the borders has the full rights of the Constitution. Due process, yes. All rights, no. If so, then any MS 13 gangbanger that wades the Rio Grande is entitled to an AR-15 and a case of ammo.

@Jolly said in Quote of the day: And WTF does that have to do with the original quote? Absolutely nothing at all. Incidentally, MM famously described The Life of Brian as a 10th rate film. Presumably me pointing out that piece of blasphemy will also irritate you. I think my real point was that as a Briton growing up in the 70's I had to suffer quite a bit of getting lectured by Mr. Muggeridge, and it left a bit of a mark.

It would kill hundreds of millions, at the right time of the year. It would also put a huge dent in China's electrical generation capacity and in their food production.

Nah, that's two alphas in the same pit...

@Jolly said in The Elites' Perceptions: Think you've already said that. I'm not sure it invalidates the data. “He uses statistics as a drunken man uses a lamp post. For support rather than illumination”

@Mik said in Da Playoffs: @LuFins-Dad said in Da Playoffs: After that officiating, I am definitely pulling for Buffalo. Yep. The ball was not in the air yet. Yeah, and the rule itself is a little suspect to me. The defender did not run into the receiver, the receiver ran into the defender… I hate when that gets called a foul in basketball, too.

@taiwan_girl The only person J Edgar Hoover didn’t have under surveillance was himself. If he did, he would have either had to blackmail himself or charge himself for extortion. Am sure he could have exchanged sordid stories with the likes of Heydrich and Beria no problem.

1,000 Houthis each wouldn’t even cover it.

Yeah, I watched a few videos from that channel and I like and respect what he does.

There are 13 guys in the UFL that were practice squad or briefly with the Saints. https://saintswire.usatoday.com/lists/2024-ufl-super-draft-picks-former-saints-players/
