Did he write himself up for being disrespectful at work?
Did you not hear the woman’s voice in the audio? It was a woman being disrespectful. I haven’t seen any news account saying it was Hegseth being disrespectful. They cleverly put his name in the headline because he was there.
The medal was awarded for properly ordering a woman to shutty.

Company is phasing out my job, any recommendations? Trying to get a few more years in before I hang it all up.
Pick an AI platform, upload your resume, and ask away. Ask it to interview you to help determine what someone your age and your experience would be most likely to be hired to do. If you would rather find a job you want to do, instead of being qualified to do, lead with that instead.
re: How do you feel when people season food that you have prepared?

I like to salt my food...even the food I cook. The chef shouldn't take it as an insult.
The way you phrased that…do you enjoy the act of salting your food without tasting it first, or do you sometimes taste it and decide it does not need more salt?
re: If my beliefs are right then why aren’t they more popular?

Any suggestions on how to answer this?
Try considering other popular beliefs that are actually wrong.
Do you remember hearing that cracking your knuckles will cause arthritis?
You should brush your teeth after eating?
Bread should be consumed more than other food options?
You need to drink 8 glasses of water every day?
Avoid eating eggs because they raise your cholesterol?
All are popular beliefs but they have all been proven wrong.
Many popular beliefs are stupid. Half the population has below average intelligence. Half is enough to make something popular.
Edited: also look at the average debt per household, and the number of people who refuse to live within their means. Even as they age, look at how little savings people have or any other reasonable form of retirement planning. People seek instant gratification and live for the moment.
If you make good decisions in life, keep doing it regardless of how unpopular your good decisions are.

Some things have changed for the better.
I’ve heard that more people tip now and the diners are more likely to notice the smoke alarm.
You’ll be fine.

Kirk is not elite
Can’t get nothing past you. Such a sharp mind for QB talent.
But consider this. A good QB is one that can quickly process information and distribute the football with very few mistakes. He was worth a 3rd round pick to a team with a good chance of making the Super Bowl.
Will he better than Kerry Collins, Rex Grossman, Trent Dilfer, Tony Eason, Stan Humphries, and David Woodley? Put me down for yes.

My grandmother was a school cafeteria manager back in the day.
She was very well respected.
But she wasn’t as good of a cook as her reputation suggested. I would describe her cuisine as Piccadilly with a touch of Luby’s.

Collin Sledge (3rd or 4th pull?) is consistently better than many golden ticket winners. I’m pulling for the guy.
Miles the new regular was very meh. Sounds like Eddie Murphy doing an impression of a white guy.

re: Average Lifetime Taxes Paid by State: Another Blow for Louisiana

LA is one of the lowest amounts in that chart though.
That observation should lead you to wonder why before making a proud declaration.
It has nothing to do with tax rate. Louisiana’s overall tax rate is higher than what Texans face.
Now fill in the blank. You can do it.
Hint: is Louisiana one of the poorest states?

This. The Colts have already traded away other strong offensive players. Defenses will now focus on him.
It makes no sense to me why they would keep rather than trade him.

Prices go up because of corporate greed and shareholders expecting exponential growth full stop.
Have you noticed prices on electronics and many home appliances go down? Even gas prices goes down.
Do prices fluctuate based on the amount of greed that people and organizations feel?
Do businesses go out of business because they just weren’t greedy enough?
Is the parent company of Olive Garden less greedy than Ruth’s Chris?
Is Amazon less greedy than Walmart?
Is Costco less greedy than Rouse’s?
Are poor people greedy to want more than they can spend with their own money?
re: Question for Iran war supporters
Posted by Willie Stroker on 11/10/26 at 4:41 pm to SlidellCajun

The question I have is for those that voted for Trump is - was your vote for Trump in part or entirely because he would use military force to attack Iran?
Neither.
quote:
At Trumps election-night victory speech, he reiterated: "I'm not going to start a war. I'm going to stop wars."
With Presidential candidates, we all have to understand that the most sensitive national security information is watered down for candidates. Any President once in office, regardless of party will likely receive daily briefings that indicate a risk has been elevated or that prior briefings were inaccurate.
Yes, Trump is a narcissist who cares about his legacy. I believe he recognized the pattern of every administration prior to the current one, including his own prior term, did not have any success mitigating the global security risk that Iran routinely presents themselves to be. He sacrificed his election night declaration to attempt what no other administration would dare do.
It was simply a risk he was willing to take because based on the best intelligence information available, the status quo was unacceptable. Iran was 100% producing longer range missiles and had maintained a stash of highly enriched uranium that had no civilian use. It didn’t take long for Iran to actually demonstrate their capability with longer range missiles that had previously been undisclosed. The strait has always been vulnerable to Iran’s whims that could affect the global economy.
If Trump’s team underestimated anything, it was the impact of Iran’s slaughter of their own people that made a future uprising unlikely, and the length of time that oil prices would remain too high for consumers to tolerate.
