re: How much do you pay for a haircut?
Posted by TheDude854 on 11/15/25 at 4:18 pm to boogiewoogie1978
Bracing for downvotes.
$30. No tip.
Context…I’ve been going to this guy for ~25 yrs. He used to work for a bigger barbershop and then went out on his own and I kept going to him. When he was with the bigger barbershop, I’d tip $3-4. Now, it’s just him—solo shop, all the money goes to him. He used to charge high teens and I’d tip to make it an even $20. He would increase his price by a dollar or so every year or two. When he got to $20, I’d tip to make it an even $25 just to make it easy. Once he got over $25, I stopped tipping and he’s now at $30. I gladly pay it though. Good guy, MAGA as hell.
My thinking is this. All the money goes to him, so is it necessary to tip? Also, I’m gonna go to him until he retires and I’ll pay whatever he charges. And he knows this. If he charged $40, I’d pay it. So I feel like, if he wants $40 to cut my hair, he’d charge $40 and I’d pay the $40. So why tip?

I’d exchange the Pels for an NHL team. Hockey games are way more entertaining to go to.
Obama says Trump engaging in “Violence against the truth”

This will be the new phrase the Left uses to attack those that disagree with them. They’ll eventually use it to imprison the dissenters (if they ever return to power). After all, inciting violence is illegal.

Abolish the FCC
Posted by TheDude854 on 9/19/25 at 2:21 pm
Let’s use this political moment to abolish the FCC. You’ll see droves of Dems come out in support of the FCC—in support of censorship. They’ll tie themselves into a pretzel.

I think Victims of Political Assassination Day (VPA Day) would be more palatable and appropriate.

Close with “It was good debating you. Don’t shoot me.”

Not true, actually.
Biden is so old, he’s part of the silent generation (the only president that that generation produced). Weirdly, if he had been born just a few weeks earlier, he would’ve been old enough to vote for JFK. Dude is old.
re: Tim Kaine appears to reject notion that people have natural rights. Yikes

“ The world is very different now. For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life. And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe -- the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God.”

re: If local request unnecessary, why didn't Trump deploy National Guard earlier on J6?
Posted by TheDude854 on 6/9/25 at 10:32 am to IvoryBillMatt
The president controls the DC National Guard but he doesn’t control the Capitol building/complex (Congress does) nor the Capitol Police. If he wants to deploy the DC National Guard to protect the Capitol, Congress (or, rather, their leaders) and the Capitol Police need to approve.

Shrimp po boy from John and Mary’s Food Store. Just down the street from Parkway. Better and cheaper.

re: Anyone here have a pizza oven OR "Kettle Pizza" attachment?
Posted by TheDude854 on 5/13/25 at 6:08 pm to Tornado Alley
I got a Big Horn pizza oven which is essentially an Ooni knockoff. It goes on sale on Amazon every now and again so I got it cheap. It’s good.
I ended up getting an Ooni gas attachment which makes it a lot easier to use than the wood pellets. There’s a facebook group for the Big Horn; they have posts about how to attach the Ooni gas attachment. I didn’t want to spend the money on an Ooni and use it only a few times. It’s worked out well.

re: Fort Morgan/Dauphine Island Ferry
Posted by TheDude854 on 5/5/25 at 10:20 am to ned nederlander
On our way to Fort Morgan, we drive thru Mobile, over the bay, and then down south. This is mainly bc we usually stop at a grocery store on our way to the beach and Fort Morgan doesn’t have a lot of options. It’s also harder to time out the ferry when driving a long distance beforehand. It’s no fun driving a few hrs and then waiting another hour for the ferry if you barely miss it.
If we do the ferry, it’s on the way back to NOLA when we’re able to time it out better so we’re not waiting that long. Plus, it’s at the beginning of the trek so the kids aren’t as antsy.
