Seriously.

FBD EO Cereal For Dinner. Just watched a girl get a $1,000 ticket for openly drinking a seltzer.

A lot of the same happening here. I think the biggest thing is that a lot of them made average to not great beer and when the fad started dying out people couldn’t justify paying those prices.

Encountered my first male NP today


The N of NP makes people think differently about the profession than it really is. They're more like doctors in their day to day than they are like nurses. They diagnose and can prescribe.

My daughter sprays her hands and then rubs it on the kids’ faces, ears, and necks.


I'll never understand that. You waste about 50% of it and that stuff is way more expensive to start with, especially when you see how much sunscreen you actually get with those spray bottles vs the lotion option. Come on people.

The fact that they gave him a monster contract after having a good 1/3 of a season (and not the last one, the first 1/3...he was garbage down the stretch) is wild. We will regret the hell out of that contract.

You gotta love the morons who assume that the fouls in a basketball games should be even and if they are that automatically means it was a fairly called game :lol:

Poor Samantha. You can tell just how much she loved him, my heart goes out to those two kids. And Kurt, I can’t imagine what he’s thinking right now


I watched the NASCAR show on Netflix and he was a totally different guy off the track.
I'll never understand why they don't just take a couple confiscated fentanyl pills and make him down those. Over in a minute, and no cost to the taxpayer.

Certainly, not every politician can be expected to be an expert economist


Even if you're not an expert economist you should be smart enough to understand human nature. And the fact that a) people do not get wealthy/successful by wasting money and b) that successful people are smarter than the common politician.

I think most of these politicians know the effects of their policy, they just don't care and won't admit it publicly. So they stick to the fake pie-in-the-sky "nothing will change except for the policy" projections (e.g. the pied-a-terre tax in NYC will raise $500,000,000 a year) that excite the useful idiots while simultaneously vilifying those who are targeted with such policies, which also helps get the policies supported and adopted.

Just like every idiot from the Northeast that moves south and then decides they want to make the area more "progressssive"


I have friends here from Minnesota and Wisconsin who are that, exactly. I generally avoid political conversations with them.

when the media ignore simple truths.


The media largely has the same goal as the socialists and/or socialist policies, so they're intentionally aiding the efforts.

I guess, since he grew up in Charleston, they are willing to overlook it.


I love how malleable and broad the explanations can become. So maybe red states and conservatives are somewhat palatable to him.
quote:

This right here will melt some commie brains.


But they will still continue to use pretty much the only explanation they can put out there "but they won't leave, it's only (insert dollar amount or %) more".

And they will keep saying it as actual data shows they are and some politicians start to admit it (Kathy Hochul).

Bezos and Schulz going are I'd imagine your #1 and 2 wealthiest and those behind them are prob far behind in total assets.


It's the vicious cycle...wealthy people flee, politicians need to increase taxes on those who remain to make up for it and impose them are more and more people, rinse/repeat as it continues.
This scumbag has a house on Sullivan's Island right across the harbor from us. Shouldn't his "people" be eating him alive for his net worth and supporting a red state instead of, say, California?

Are you suggesting they cut off his leg?


No, they could just adopt similar rules as the NCAA

quote:

NCAA Anti-Flopping Rules
To combat deception and encourage genuine play, the NCAA implemented strict anti-flopping rules.

Technical Foul Penalty: Any player who fakes being fouled or exaggerates contact can be assessed a Class B technical foul. This results in one free throw awarded to the opposing team.

No Warnings Required: Officials are instructed to call the technical foul immediately without prior warning if they clearly spot a fake.

Offensive Specifics: Common offensive flops include shooters kicking their legs out or throwing their bodies to the floor when a defender jumps by without making contact, or dribblers wildly jerking their heads back to simulate illegal hand checks.


Pretty sure that video had all of those things in it.

The answer is simple: they share the same goals.


Bingo. Same goals, different reason. But the progressive left doesn't care. It reminds me of a Simpson's quote from McBain...paraphrasing a bit but "I will "save" you if it means killing every last one of you!"
