It took me awhile. I was similar. I thought his stench effected us... but I didn't think it meant doom.

 

I now think that we are capable of a good season or two and being a contender for a year or two... max. Then it spirals. That's our ceiling. But we tend to live on the stairs to the first floor in a three floor home.

 

There you go, exactly lol..

There is an extremely large contingent of folk that think Snyder is a bad man but cannot possibly be the reason that this team has stunk since 1999.

I was in the "Snyder is a bad man but not necessarily the reason this team has stunk since 1999" camp until about 2014 lol...I was basically an agnostic.

Haha.  I couldn't be more your opposite.   I'm pro-ranked choice voting and pro-EC.

What's the argument for ranked choice voting?...Asking as someone who has never once read or gotten into a discussion about it lol...

I think she’s married to a cardboard cut-out lol…

To go along with the flying car lol...

The rest...

"I responded “yeah, it’s a traditional Japanese poem consisting of 3 lines and in the pattern of 5-7-5 syllables.” I remember I had just written one in class. He freaked out and told me I was the smartest person he has ever met. I was literally like 8."

"Anyways. On that day he vowed to make sure I always made it to school. My mother was in her own world, doing and dealing drugs. When I tell you this guy drove me and picked me up so he KNEW I went everyday.. he literally did my homework with me."

"He took me to all the important things in my life. He became family. The closest thing to a father figure I’ve ever had honestly. He was my best friend. He saved my life. Tonight I got a call from his sister. He died unexpectedly from a (possible) heart attack @ around 1am."

"Anyways. He’s gone. I’m probably gonna be a weirdo for a while. Sorry in advance. I just needed to get that out. There is so much more but I just know I would not be where I am without him."

"Love you Dave. Thank you for teaching me how to change a tire, replace my brakes, watching every episode of the Simpson’s with me, saving my life literally countless times.. always said “you can have a good life in spite of your mom, or a bad 1 bc of her”. I chose the good life."

EDIT: I questioned whether or not to post this...thought there was no way of proving the story is true (although not sure why this particular story would need to be fabricated). She mentioned how she woke up at the time of his heart attack and stayed awake during the time they tried resuscitating him, which made me wonder if she embellished the story some or if she's just using the incorrect terminology. Anyway, if it is true I thought it was a good reminder of how being kind improves the world as a whole.

Some highlights lol...

"Trump then claims there are too many things wrong with the DoJ to address, so they aren’t gonna. Um. This is where you do that. In court. In pleadings. But they just want to address one thing. The June 3rd meeting. What is it with trump and June meetings? 3/"

"Here’s where they confess he possessed the documents. But he didn’t address how he actually owns them. Not to mention he doesn’t identify any documents he claims are privileged. Likely because he has no argument. Lulz. 4/"

"BUT WAIT! Here’s why they admit the documents they had were classified by agreeing that the special master should have a TS/SCI clearance. How they haven’t yet learned to just keep their mouths shut I’ll never know. 5/"

"Notably absent from this filing is Christina Bobb, who signed off on the certification that they did a rigorous search for weeks and have definitely totally handed over everything but no please don’t look in the boxes again. Where is she? Hopefully lawyering up. 6/"

"This zero-substance, all-grievance, no-relief clown law trashcan pleading is at best an insult to the court, and at worst, a full-throated confession to espionage, obstruction, and criminal concealment. They even reference federal criminal procedure in a civil case. 8/"

Every Parent’s Worst Nightmare: This Child Is Dumb, Mean, And Smells Bad

When two people have a child, they are filled with hopes and dreams for its future, looking forward to the happy years they’ll spend guiding their little one’s development. But unfortunately, there are times when those hopes are suddenly dashed, like in the case of this poor couple that has endured a shocking tragedy: Sadly, it turns out that their child is dumb, mean, and smells bad.

This is truly every parent’s worst nightmare.

Ben and Michelle Dawson were overjoyed when they first brought their son Mason home from the hospital as an infant, and his toddlerhood went by uneventfully, but unfortunately, the family’s happiness wouldn’t last forever: Around their son’s fifth birthday, Mason’s parents’ lives changed forever as they began to notice that their child was a stinky moron with a terrible personality.

Allahpundit on the "Trump is done" stuff:

 

https://hotair.com/allahpundit/2022/08/30/ann-coulter-on-trump-hes-done-its-over-n493399

 

I know I was wrong in 2020, and it's still way early, but my gut has zero confidence that we won't see him back as POTUS in 2025.

I don't think they define "done" the same way others do.

I detest Ted Cruz for any number of reasons, but stupid isn't one.  You don't go Princeton -> Harvard Law being stupid.  He wasn't a legacy admission or anything.  He may be an asshole and every other thing out of his mouth may be a disingenuous argument, but stupid he is not.

There's a difference between "uneducated" and "stupid"...Ted Cruz is educated. I'll give him that much.

Step Aboard the First Flying Car Available in the U.S. Market 

You’ve seen flying cars in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, The Jetson’s, and Harry Potter—and soon you may see them coasting over your neighborhood. In late July, Samson Sky, a commercial flying car company, announced that its Switchblade model passed Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) inspection, clearing it for flight tests. After reaching this milestone, the Switchblade is poised to be the first flying car available in the U.S. market. 

 

It's about damn time!!...Start working on those hoverbords next, fellas.

Sound on lol...

One NSFW word lol...

I think that says "Even zombies need a vacation during the apocalypse" in Spanish...
