Lol Stern has sucked for the past 12-15 years but nothing touches Stern in his prime regardless of what he is now. O&A came the closest but were still never that close.
Charlize Theron is the most beautiful African-American

You're saying this because of his politics but he actually really is (one of them at least). He's supposed to be some kind of icon but really only has 3-4 decent songs (Born to Run, Glory Days, Born in the Usa and maybe Dancing in the Dark).
People love to hate on reaction videos, and a lot of them are fake and lame, but the goods ones are a lot of fun. Closest you can ever get to erasing your brain and experiencing something awesome again for the first is time is watching through the eyes of someone seeing it for the first time.
It's a shame that more Americans don't know more about him but I guess there's no reason to since the only effect he had on us was the Louisiana Purchase.

And Ridley Scott should be prohibited from ever making movies again after that abomination that completely failed to take advantage of some of the best source material in human history.
Defintely. Some might have emotional connections to American historical figures or whatever but nobody comes close. He is not only the most interesting historical figure but he might be the most impressive human being who has ever lived.

Came out of absolute nowhere to seize control of a country that was in utter chaos and within a few years turned it into the world's foremost superpower. He is undoubtably the greatest military commander of all time who for over a decade kicked the sh*t out of the combined forces of the world's 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th most powerful militaries (prior to him they were all pretty much equal).

Unlike a lot of these historical baddasses he also did a ton of legitimate good. The French Revolution was 100% going to fail and return to absolute monarchial dictatorship if it wasn't for him. Instead he brilliantly found a middle ground that did away with the most radical elements of the revolution while implementing the most popular ones (equality under the law, equal of opportunity to succeed economically, freedom of religion, ended feudalism, and spread the concepts of the enlightenment throughout Europe which set the stages for the democratic movements of the 19th century.).

It's important to note too that he did not start 7 of the 9 coalitions/wars he was involved in. Most of his fighting was self defense.

There was only one force that could destroy Napoleon and that was Napoleon.
my guess without googling (except for google calculator) or reading rest of the thread is 112.5
Understandable and I have no problem with it. Trump is about to tank their economy if the Tariffs stand (big if) and he threatened to eliminate them as a soveriegn nation.

As much as I support looking after America's interest first and generally support the wider gist of what Trump is doing (for now, my support is no unconditional) they are totally justified in booing. .
Diet Cherry Pepsi is the best zero calorie drink known to man. Pepsi > Coke all day every day.
By far the weirdest most disgusting animal on the planet is the Tazmanian Devil. Their entire lives are interesting random facts. Do yourself a favor and go down that rabbit hole.

One (of many) interesting facts about them is that humans can pick them up and they won't do anything.
quote:

Female cheetahs raise their cubs on their own. Male cheetahs do not assist with raising their cubs. The only reason male and female cheetahs even interact is to mate.

After the cubs are born, the male will go back to live in its coalition and leave the babies with their mother. The female cheetah will then take over raising the cubs, hunting for them, and keeping them safe from predators.


This is basically every big cat besides lions
1. Ban lite beer. Actually anything but porters, stouts and black lager.

What about IPAs? The only good thing hipsters did was popularize IPAs
Absolutely no payments to anyone for having children

the west is facing a population crises though. Lots of boomers getting old and not enough young people. We're not as bad as others because of immigration but there are people who want that shut down.too. Tough choices need to be made. There is no cake and eat it to solution
no they didn't because this is real national news
Not suprising lots of reasons for this some this board will like some they will not.

Depressed rust belt city with super cheap housing until very recently.

Great public schools in the suburbs. One thing you do get for all your taxes up here is great public schools.

Buffalo has always been a fun no frills party city with good food and good bars. Support for the Bills is a super fun religion and one of the closest things pro sports has to southern support for College Football.

Cultcha is contained to specific neighborhoods. The current longtime mayor is pro growth and supports the cops. BTW he is AA

Lots of snowflake refugees escaping MAGA (doesn't matter if you think they suck it's a reason people are moving here).

Whether you want to believe it or not climate change is real (not as bad as many say but real) and upstate New York is benefiting from it. Winters becoming much less harsh while the South continues to bake in ever increasing heat and stronger hurricanes.

New York is getting less progressive by the minute.

Upstate NY is a hidden gem and we are seeing all sorts of people moving here trying to escape high cost of living in New York/Boston or escaping politics they don't like or weather they don't like or whatever.

Either way it's great for us homeowners and business owners.

Don't knock it till you try it come pay a visit.
Of all the major langauges Dutch is the closest to English. But it's even less useful than German.

Life expectancy being lower in the USA has nothing to do with our healthcare system being worse than other countries. This is a tired trope and I thought this election was about rejecting this type of "elite" misinformation.

Life expectancy is lower in the US because of murders, worse diets, opiods and a few other things like more car accident deaths. Medicare for all or Universal Healthcare will do nothing to decrease any of these things.
