[quote]I have never heard of Juneteenth before in my life. [/quote]We are not responsible for your ignorance....

[quote]Except the proclamation was made on January 1st two years before Juneteenth. And the 13th was ratified six months after Juneteenth. It's odd to elevate a local Texas holiday to federal status, no?[/quote]The celebration is of actual, practical emancipation - not nominal emancipation....

[quote]Jackson Browne is one artist that I really regret never seeing live. Had an opportunity during college and didn't go. Still regret that. Incredible talent> .[/quote]Looks like he's touring with James Taylor in the fall. Funny, as that's a perfect of example of someone that I would argue is mo...

Jackson Browne stands head and shoulders above the other singer/songwriters of his era. His work - particularly the first 5 albums - is just sublime in almost every way. On top of his gorgeous voice and haunting melodies, the instrumentality of the songs is immense. David Lindley is obviously a big ...

[quote]Love all eras of Maiden. Even Blaze era has some gems. Constants in the band: Steve and Dave[/quote]Same. But I still feel Adrian is the heart and Bruce is the engine....

[quote]I'd literally NEVER heard of "Juneteenth" until the end of May last year. Over, no exaggeration, a two DAY period, I saw Google add it to their calendar, my wife asked me about it because there was a FB banner "ad" about it, and I heard some 15 second news blurb about it on the radio while dr...

[quote]I can't get past the pidgin English of the name. I hear it and it's full stop. It sounds so stupid I don't want to discuss it. [/quote]If you're from south Louisiana, this seems almost impossible to believe....

[quote]I’m not pretending that computerized technology isn’t great or hasn't advanced our civilization. I’m saying relying on any one technology, especially one where an enemy nation is supplying all the parts, isn’t a great idea. [/quote]I agree (with Trump) about not letting China control this typ...

[quote]They are making bank on the repairs, by getting the automobiles back to the shop.[/quote]Please. Cars are crazy more reliable than they used to be. This thread can be summed up very easily: OK, Boomer (and I am one)....

[quote]there were a lot of screwball scenarios/scenes in the early portions of the show. it really takes away from the show on rewatches[/quote]Let's not forget the magnet caper. And the ridiculous Gus half-face laugher. This show is a solid 3 out of 4 stars. And they proved they could make 4-sta...

[quote] paid for it in full. No mortgage, nothing. [/quote]If you really believe in this hyperinflation meme, that's dumb....

[quote]Prices will eventually drop, lumber isn't going to stay at 1400 a thousand board feet once the federal government end their covid welfare programs and US lumber mills get their workers back. Prices will drop once the fed starts bumping up interest rates, which they're already talking about...

[quote]And you believed it, repeated it, and shared it. You are just as bad as the lying media. You are their tool.[/quote]Link?...

[quote]When a total stranger begins a post to me by insulting me, yes, I am always this butthurt. [/quote]Pot? Kettle? [quote]I have no idea what that means. [/quote]Sure you do. All you ever do is start pearl-clutching threads about the most negative shite in the world. It's fine. I like realism....

[quote]For more than a year, it has been consecrated media fact that former President Donald Trump and his White House, on June 1 of last year, directed the U.S. Park Police to use tear gas against peaceful Lafayette Park protesters, all to enable a Trump photo-op in front of St. John's Church. That...

[quote] Playoff to be Expanded to 12 teams by 2023[/quote]Truly stupid. They can barely field a competitive 4-team playoff every few years....

[quote]At 20-50% above market rates?[/quote] Several things: I've read both articles and I don't see anything that provides any reporting or proof on "50% above market". The one article mentions a package trading 20% over list price. Yeah, so what. Have you read the news? Homes all over the...

[quote]I don't know why you try so hard to be an a-hole when you post on here. Are you this insufferable IRL? [/quote]Are you this butthurt about everything IRL? Have you ever posted anything positive ever? [quote]But Lee and Jackson being removed from Charlottesville? That's a big deal. That sh...

[quote]My husband does Mortgage Collections/loss mitigation for a loan servicing company. All of his "owners" of the loans are investors. He's not collecting for banks any longer, it's companies like this. He's been working at this company for 3 years, so this is not new. [/quote]It's literally b...
