  1. These people are the same folks who see themselves as victims for having taken out college loans, and who see the only acceptable resolution to the ills foisted upon them is for someone else to shoulder the burden of repayment because their debt is impeding their ability to upgrade to the latest iPhone/BMW/timeshare. When you consider that many may have children in similar situations, having followed the same curious mathematical formula to educational success that their parents chose with hopes of the same outcome, you end up with the latest version of intergenerational welfare moms. They ain’t all that smart.
  2. His actions saved millions, at least according to projections from the science dudes.
  3. I watched this again last night. I initially thought that she fought the truck and the truck won, but at the 4 second mark a lady with the same hair and green bag appears exiting away from the truck. That would explain why as she flails about like a carp on the pavement, there appears to be no serious injury to her. In the end, it appears that a couple of dopes tried to stop a truck so the occupants could be brutalized, the truck driver thought otherwise and allowed the dopes just enough time to reconsider.
  4. Pretty horrible to watch, but I’m torn on what the expectation was as they tried to block the truck with a screaming horde surrounding it. Then, of course, the point of no return is reached for all involved—those in the truck, those in front and those all around.
  5. My father survived polio, my mother lost the majority of her hearing due to constant ear infections throughout her youth and spent her working years as a registered nurse providing aid, comfort and compassion to the sick, injured and dying. My sister and several other family members followed her in that noble pursuit. My sister-in-law is a pediatrician, my brother-in-law, nephew, niece and two of my three children had COVID. My brother-in-law chooses at this point to go with the theory of COVID immunity. My sister-in-law sees no problems with that decision. With due respect to you and yours, there are people who suffer and survive and see it differently than you do and to reduce to calling derisively calling them “internet sleuths” adds little to the discussion. Sorry to hear of your experiences, the stories that come out of this crisis are often tragic. One can only wonder how much better it might have been had those folks who chose to protest in violation of lockdown rules and CDC guidance been provided better guidance and advice about the dangers of gathering in massive groups. Or, if there was honest dialogue about the nature of the virus initially. I’d think lots of skeptical folks might well have treaded cautiously had there been honest dialogue that the root cause of the virus might well have been an escaped virus from a research lab.
  6. As he said, Texas is a large state and it impedes his ability to google.
  7. According to @Niagara Bill there is nothing to see here. Biden is as spry as he was when The Beaver was getting in trouble on account of Eddie Haskel’s hijinx.
  8. Well, while I think you display a considerable lack of tolerance at times, your commitment to call out the fools as you see them is noteworthy.

  10. What’s on the other side of accusing a nominee publicly of being a rapist and sexual abuser?
  11. I was reading up on the origins of that expression the other day. It’s been shortened to accommodate the busy lives people lead these days. The original expression was: When you lock a horse in its stall for 14 months, deprive it of the ability to thrive, tell him its for his and the greater good but allow him to watch other horses roam about freely and without consequence in support of horsecial justice while telling him to pay no mind to that sort of thing, and then he finds out maybe just maybe you weren’t being completely honest with him about what caused some to be locked down to begin with, maybe the horse won’t trust you when you assure him it’s perfectly safe to drink when he isn’t thirsty to begin with. I think I saw it on wiki, so it’s a stone fact.
  12. Now, you’re off world leaders and back to any shmo laughing at a president, and generalizations about some dickwads laughing at Roosevelt’s disability and Ford falling. That’s completely different than what you said when you changed up the first time and called me out for posting general thoughts on a 78 year old man who was tremendously gaffe-prone when he had all his faculties quite a few years ago. At least you dropped the Trump photo charade, that’s something. As for your concerns about my feelings on Biden’s diminished capacity, I’m not sure what you’re seeing, but I know what I am. You asked for evidence world leaders were laughing at him—I gave it to you. If you feel I’m misreading the crowd, and that they were all chuckling because a waiter dropped a tray of glasses off camera, I can appreciate that. To me, it’s crystal clear this ain’t “laughter with”.
  13. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/06/biden-freezes-like-deer-headlights-10-seconds-straight-reporter-asks-vladimir-putin-video/ Yumpin yimminy he’s breaking down before our very eyes.
  14. Ah, it’s Niagara Bill pinball time again. I wasn’t paying attention to the time. When you stated with conviction that “they” laughed at Roosevelt and Ford like it mattered with respect to Dementia Joe, my assumption was that you were speaking broadly, with just a dash of hyperbole. I didn’t really see the need to Clintonize your intended use of the word “they”, or request video documentation of they and them laughing. I see now that you’ve upped the ante based on my response about they elusive “they”, springboarding back to 2020 and, of course Trump, because you were speaking of Biden, Roosevelt and Ford. Now, suddenly, it’s not about “they”, unless of course they refers specifically to “world leaders”, a phrase not included in the original dialogue. Why the change up To boot, you have “photos of world leaders laughing at Trump” to bolster the argument made only by you. I know the tone that some world leaders took with Trump for any number of reasons. That said—since you’re the prove it or stay quiet dude——please send me the “photo” of a world leader laughing at Trump that will convince me, a humble Trumpster you have proof that the laughter was directed at Trump. No captions, no journalistic shading, no bylines please as this should be obvious. I was speaking much more generally than you (as it turns out), but Be that as it may: This is a recent example of chuckles at Grandpa doing Grandpa things. Oh, and please send over the documentation detailing world leaders laughing at Roosevelt and Ford.
  15. They are like them, back when it was fashionable to use preferred pronouns 18 hours ago.
  16. And Biden would be the equivalent of Roosevelt’s great uncle and Fords grandfather. He wanders around like a forgetful octogenarian because that’s exactly what he is. They don’t laugh him because of it, they laugh at him because he doesn’t know it.
  17. I acknowledge you feel this way. Godspeed Billsy.
  18. Lies. I don’t see that at all. I see you unraveling with odd commentary and outlandish proclamations of victory over imagined anonymous foes. I actually think @B-Man should be a history teacher because he keeps taking you to school!
  19. And math. Don’t forget math, which comes right after climate denialismishness. We need a global math tax.
  20. Oh I’m paying attention Chef Jack! Maybe it’s YOU who isn’t!
  21. It can also make white students resentful of white people. Seems to me that’s the plan—the latest variation of making one feel inadequate or guilty for historic inequities real or imagined. It’s not new, it’s just people trying to saddle other people with their view of their world and how you should comport yourself in it.
  22. The version I saw with the link from Billsy must cut off before the evidence he’s posting is revealed. Or—as Billsy and the cleverly named Fitty shades of Whey seem to imply—-is it now illegal to march, talk about marching, contemplating marching and the like? Seems to me it is not (yet).
  23. The basement provides shelter for utilities, plumbing heating and is often considered the safest place in the dwelling in the event of a natural disaster. No one ever yells “Get to the Executive level and hunker up!” when the twister is coming. The lowly basement is the heart of anything that rises above it, and any man who looks down upon it is a man-bun wearing woke hipster dufus who’s probably afraid of spiders. The spider, by the way...is nature’s vacuum cleaner and....ah, I’ve said too much.
  24. I’m trying to find the 7x green check reply button to supersize my like of @T master post!
  25. Ah, this is the old another guy is worse then my guy shtick, a game already run by others. Boring. You always struck me as an honest stakeholder in this game we play. Do you think there is any truth to the rumor that some people—in this case female, allow wealthy/powerful/celebrity individuals—in this case men, access to areas normally covered by traditional swimwear (let’s leave the French out of it) for the purpose of sexual gratification? I’m going out on a limb here and saying I think there may be some validity to this rumor. Of course, I wanted feedback from other sources so I spoke with friends from different backgrounds, with different upbringings, different political philosophies but did so in person as opposed to the internet where it’s relatively easy to make an inane argument that when someone bragging to someone in private about women letting him grab them is akin to sexual assault. To a person, all have acknowledged that the rumor is likely true. What say you S3, do women ever allow men to take such liberties?
