Isn’t this an easy question to figure out? You can literally just look at the crime statistics and delete the numbers contributed from the cities you mentioned.

What’s your next interesting question: how many states would America have if it weren’t for Utah and Kansas?

This is a bigger factor than ppl think IMO. Anecdotal for sure, but there’s a common thread among everyone I know who is still mask-obsessed and it’s not their politics

It’s not that hard. The more beta captain must give way to the more alpha one.

I suppose you never stopped to wonder if it’s actually true that half the country supports baby murder and sexually assaulting children or if that framing is what you’ve adopted in order to indulge in your most base desires to write people off.


Personally I blame these damn superhero movies. People out here actually thinking the world is divided into the good guys and the bad guys fighting for global supremacy:lol:

It used to be impolite to talk about such things. Now people won't leave it alone.


And so many people don’t realize how we’ve normalized making your political views part of your identity. It’s absolutely batshit and in no other country do people run around all day getting stressed out about those idiots on the other side.

If somebody talks politics I just let them and adopt the approach that I’m interested in how they see the world. Never takes too long before they start feeling stupid that apparently what they really needed was simply to vent about a bunch of pent up anger they self-cultivated through their overconsumption of the news.
People have figured out how to make money off of your tribalism and outrage. If you are one of those who thinks the other “side” is “just a bunch of ______”, then congratulations, you’re a mark.

Fortunately, there’s an easy remedy for you: go outside and interact with your fellow Americans. The world would be a boring place if we all saw things the same way. Have the emotional intelligence and humility to acknowledge that a good and intelligent person might see something a little different than you and that’s OK.

Why do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway
Actually OP those bottom 2 wines could be legit. The Moraga is prob worth triple digits as long as the storage situation isn’t a disaster. Don’t know about the one on the left but I don’t recognize it from grocery stores.

Just to be clear, you’re referring to the people who took time out of their evening to answer the specific question OP was asking?

Enjoy it.
I’d probably put them in my pantry to use for cooking
This is the platonic ideal of what a collection suburban home wines looks like. Not judging, just know that these are the kinds of wines that are made to be simple, drinkable, inoffensive, extremely affordable, and most certainly do not benefit from aging.

Will run like garbage, have next to 0 battery life, and on the off chance you still somehow enjoy anything out of the experience you’re going to shell out the $$$ for a brand new one anyway.

Don’t waste your $100

I have to say I like that they are making this ride. Not to take anything away from Splash Mountain, as I dont believe it should have been re-imagined, but I have a good feeling this will be tastefully done, and we will be impressed with its representation of Louisiana. They should have built this ride a long time ago. I liked the movie.


Yeah, the reasoning is dumb but if they had come done it for more authentic reasons I don’t think people here would be so upset. It’s a pretty cool change IMO.

Personally I’m going to pay more attention to the outcome rather than the motivation bc I like to look at the bright side of things:cheers:
You’re either a binary thinker or you’re not
I think woke stuff is as dumb as the next person, but I kinda like the change. It’ll be Louisiana-themed and should have some cool music. Splash Mountain is my favorite ride there but it’s certainly due for a little refurbish. Their motivation may be dumb but doesn’t mean they didn’t accidentally make a good move.


Only thing I don’t like is the name. Tiana’s Bayou Adventure? Typical inoffensive milquetoast corporate bullshite. Should have just renamed it (Tiana’s) Bayou Mountain in keeping with it being one of the park’s “mountain” flagship rides (along with space mountain and thunder mountain). What kid is going to be asking their parents if they can go on “Tiana’s Bayou Adventure” one more time:lol:

Incorrect. Most of the air you breathe while flying in an airplane is fresh air from the outside. People don’t think that be like it is, but it do.
