  1. Hence why I've never said "suck my pyramids". Until now, that is.
  2. Season 3 begins August 28: http://www.denofgeek.com/us/tv/the-strain/249378/the-strain-season-3-teaser-and-premiere-date
  3. I don't disagree with this, but I'd add that the personalization and hatred for the president isn't any more so than that which was directed at GW Bush, which was both ubiquitous and nearly hysterical in it's pitch. I believe that's going to be the way of presidential politics for quite a while, since most people tend to do nothing more than pick a team and stick with them no matter what.
  4. The federal budget increases every year, and during shut downs, only non-essential services are suspended. Those that perform those non-essential services all eventually get paid, as far as I know. Those shut downs are mostly just for show.
  5. Well, this is sure to solve everything: Homeland Security Report Calls for Rejecting Terms ‘Jihad,’ ’Sharia’ http://freebeacon.com/national-security/homeland-security-report-calls-rejecting-terms-jihad-sharia/
  6. And how can you prevent the GPS from being disabled, anyway?
  7. His Bernie was awesome! We need a cinnamon roll revolution!
  8. These fools are in competition with each other to see who's the most cranial-deficient of the lot. The supreme irony is that for people who operate on nothing but feelings, in tragedies such as this one, they appear to have no feelings at all.
  9. Socialism's proponents will say that you just don't get it. The reason socialism has never worked is because the right people have never tried it.
  10. I have several friends who have bought firearms for those very reasons.
  11. They're definitely going to be triggered.
  12. Which do you think will piss them off more - ordering your coffee black, or not?
  13. That's one of the most disgusting displays I've ever seen. Seriously.
  14. I'm probably not American enough either, so don't worry.
  15. This is what I was referring to - and they still haven't found it.
  16. Yep, and they're probably going to find a lot more than they had estimated they would. I thought I head them say this morning that the lagoon was supposedly alligator-free, and I thought "how in hell do they know that?" - even if it's completely enclosed, what's to stop them from just walking up to it and making it their new hunting grounds? About three miles from where I'm sitting, in a little town called Del Valle just past the Austin airport, there's a development where the retaining pond is actually home to an alligator. Many people here - even native Texans - are unaware that although very rare, alligators do live in the area rivers and lakes. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if this tragedy in Orlando spurs these people to finally catch and dispatch the alligator in their retaining pond. And by the way - I'm sure you know enough about the feeding habits of alligators to know that they probably won't be finding that poor little boy for a while. It's too gruesome to get into the details, but I suspect you're aware of that.
  17. Nothing to worry about at all. Anyone who watches Archer knows that the only time Russian technology is dangerous is when it's a microchip planted in your head, and then only when it receives an errant cell phone signal.
  18. I read where the father attempted to rescue the toddler but the alligator turned and attacked him, cutting him up pretty badly. I can't begin to imagine the horror of such a thing. I remember eons ago when my family visited Disney World (they were still building Space Mountain). I was struck by all the lakes and ponds in the Orlando area, but none of us needed to be told that there were not just alligators, but all kinds of poisonous snakes frolicking about in those pools. We just knew.
  19. That really doesn't look any different from the fundraising ads I get from anyone else.....except it's funnier.
  20. I'll be willing to bet that he hasn't even considered that as a genuine possibility.
  21. To be fair, I can't name a single news source that doesn't seem to have some type of bias or another. It would be nice if there was such a source, but I think the best you can do is to try to take in at least a few news sources and sift through all the contradiction and bias before coming to any conclusions.
