  • That's why you throw away half of the resumes from applicants. You don't want to hire unlucky people.

  • Texas Representative and Freedom Caucus member Chip Roy on Monday publicly raised the possibility of dumping Johnson as speaker.

    Good. Good riddance to him.

    That's how you know it won't happen. Chip Roy is incapable of doing good.

  • It was stupid to use a kids show as an example. That episode aired in 2002. Only a small slice of people born 1980 to 2000 would care.

    The other examples had an audience with a much wider age range.

  • There is no F in security!

    1. I brought up your mother because they were a person in your life you did not choose. Pick a different mother. You can't? That's my point. I hope you had a great one. If you love you mom, I am sorry you lost her. But you had a lot of victim blaming in your small comment.
    2. I don't know the relevance. You know I made up that cop story? Also, there is a strange assumption people make the the main character of a story is supposed to be a good guy. He not. I don't care about him. My point was the swatter is dumbass whose plan had no hope of even bothering their target but could cause issues for their blue team.

    Have you talked to many domestic violence survivors? Leaving is not simple. The kids are sympathetic too. I won't let my hate of MAGA blur that. Targeting families is crime even in war. I won't do it.

    1. Good. It is hard, but good. I wish it weren't this way. I sorry you had some family members wrapped up in that. This is off-topic, but have you had any luck convincing any of them? I like to hear rhetoric that has worked.
  • And yet they had purple onions. Curious.

  • MAGA Turns on Speaker Mike's Johnson.

  • Cut the librarian some slack, they just had their dictionary banned. (I wish I were joking.)

  • You folks have no theory of mind. All I'm saying is that the bootlicker with the great idea of trying ruin the Smiths' Christmas ended up being at best friendly fire in a completely foreseeable way. The swatter is just having cops fight cops.

    But stellar point about choosing your own family. Go home to your mom; tell her you're brilliant.

  • Somewhere along the line it evolved into a racist dog whistle.

    Yeah, it's super easy to how it's a symbol of racism by how hard the racists defend it. Most people that had any affinity for it simply let it go when they realized it hurt people. So now the hatred under the banner is, in quite a real sense, distilled.

  • Oh, is that what comes up when you google "percent of cop's wife's"? Oops, I guess shouldn't have said that. ;)

    And I know I getting downvoted for being sympathetic to a family. But the person who sent the swat team presumably would care about them.

  • So it will result in a barrage of sustained objections. That's music to Trump's ears. Is this oppression? [butterfly]

  • It's not "impossible". It's expensive and will take years to produce material under an encompassing license in the quantity needed to make the model "large". Their argument is basically "but we can have it quickly if you allow legal shortcuts."

  • So I don't want to bother finding a place to put this where anyone who would do this would see it. I'll just rant here.

    Hey jackass. Let's consider the events of christmas day. Smith family sits safely at home. There is no mention of Jack even being informed.

    Meanwhile, a mother is having an over-text conversation with her cop husband about how they are missing each other on Christmas Day. Then the cop texts "got to run. another guy with a gun."

    Now the cop's wife is at home holding her children with the routine and traumatic thought of "will my children see their dad again?".

    Summing up. Smith family fine. Cop family scared. You know a certain percentage of cops' wives are very sympathetic individuals.

  • When police started buying military surplus and find it's not exciting if it sits in an armory. Here's a blog post that links a good Last Week Tonight from 2014 about it.

  • I'm super confused. It seems most of this conversation misses the meme format. Everyone is agreeing with the middle guy. That's how the meme works. The middle guy is right, but that's not the point. It's like I'm taking crazy pills.

  • I want an "only necessary cookies except one cookie to remember I clicked this option" button available with one click.

  • How do people deal with getting older when the hottest girls are out of your age range.

    There are certain qualities a man needs to consistently attract hot women. Age does not matter as much as one would think. It certainly doesn't matter in a way that is fair to women.

    So as the hottest girls leave my age range, I don't much think about it. I'm turning 40 this year, and I'm worrying about how old I'll be at my kids' graduations not what any 20-somethings think about old man me.

  • That's only in direction of motion. The height still won't fit. Of course, all hell breaks loose if they touch even if they don't pass all the way through.

  • I don't know why you see it as an error. It's the format of the meme. The guy in the middle is right, the guy on the left is wrong. That's just how this meme works. But the punchline in this meme format is the the guy on the right agrees with the wrong guy in an unexpected way. I'm with the guy on the right and no appeals to Schröder–Bernstein theorem is going to change my mind.
