Switzerland vs Hungary and the reality of being Scottish

Vigilante murders teen in cold blood because he had an Airsoft gun. It was not the first time he threatened to shoot an unarmed person. Previously he mistook part of a bicycle for a firearm.

And for @Corcaigh he's a Brit. 

 

 

 

 

The politically correct term in Europe is "English ****".

I just visited the Major League Eating website, and being a serious competitive sport they have international rankings.

#22 is MLE's answer to Megan Rapinoe, and at #23 Taylor Swift.

There is not a record book for this. And if there is no-one cares, not even Joey Chesnut. He’s focused on the next hotdog.

We should be encouraging more health-conscious activities for drunken 4th of July revelers, such as the largest firework you can shoot out your ass.

"Dammit, I thought there would be 27 year olds in here. Let's go home, Martha!"

If Martha is admitting to being over 30 then odds are she’s probably passed 40. And maybe Martha doesn’t want her partner eyeing up some 27-year old. The age threshold and disparity starting to make sense.

That was my exact thought.  Diners are packed in like cattle. 

If they are targeting customers who dropped out early after middle school then maybe that high school cafeteria vibe is upscale and aspirational?

Judging from the picture at the link, calling this place upscale is quite the stretch.  

The tables and chairs have that high school cafeteria ambience.

And there’s a not-small segment of the female

population who are not advertising that they are over 30.

Has anyone started a GoFundMe for the Central Patk Five to place a full-page ad in the New York Times about Trump’s convictions?

It seems unfair to blame the kid for the bad genetics she got from her dad.

He falsified business records 34 times for the purpose of covering up a crime. Presumably he split up the payments into smaller amounts to make them stand out less.

You can argue he might have been charged with just three felonies if he had bundled everything together, but i don’t know if this makes it much better.  

Somewhat off topic, but I'd like to see a remake of Taken where Liam Neeson's daughter is abducted by the Greys.

Yeah but I feel like the dems emails at least use a formatting and presentation that doesn’t make you want to burn your eyes out of your head just trying to read it and see what it’s talking about 

Just trying to read those right-wing emails makes my brain hurt 

And the keyboard of the writer of the Dem emails has a functioning key for a period. Trump’s doesn’t and they have to use an exclamation mark at the end of every single sentence!

EDIT: I checked my Junk folder and there are more Trump fundraising emails from yesterday there. Would ten separate emails in a single 24 hour period in bold fonts, yellow highlighting and exclamation marks convince you to take action? Or just think it’s confirmation that Grandpa has lost his marbles?

Yup.  But they are generally talented at making coffee and usually know where the chalk is when you can't find any...so you need at least one or two in a department.

THEY HAD ONE DATA POINT. JUST ONE. AND THE FACT THAT IT DIDN’T FIT THEIR MODEL DIDN’T TROUBLE THEM.

An email account I don’t use anymore, and certainly has never signed up for political messages, got SIX fundraising spam messages from Trump in the 24 hours after the verdict.

They are written in a style of 1995 internet by someone has just discovered html tags to change fonts and color.

There’s the statement in the article:

”This means there could be anywhere from as few as 0.006 to as many as 100,000 active, communicative civilizations in our galaxy, with the actual number likely being on the lower end.”

We have one data point that would seem to indicate that 0.006 civilizations in our galaxy is an underestimate by several orders of magnitude.

“I don’t know why CNN pays you to come on here and lie”

 

nice to hear someone say it 😂 

And the host acted offended, as the paid panelists all know it’s theater and they aren’t supposed to say that out loud.

Sure, both political parties will always have lunatics and fanatics on their fringe. But at the moment the lunatics and fanatics of the GOP are the mainstream.

And that’s different.

Michael Cohen went to the Dark Side and has tried to redeem himself.

Are you pure enough of mind and of sufficient willpower to avoid being drawn to the Dark Side like Cohen?
