If Schnall didn't take the SC job, a lot of folks thought Meade was the backup plan. He was an assistant here, as well.

Great deal for US, shite deal for Israel, which is why Levin cares.

I'll absolutely take that.

Not irrational at all, but Mark Ruffalo is the absolute worst.


I agree with this. Only role I didn't mind him in was Zodiac.

Seth Rogen is up there near the top of this list. We get it. You like to smoke weed and you're proud of your Jewish heritage. Find a new role.

Mike Bobo


He played little league with my BiL, and they grew up in the same town.

Granted, my BiL is a Florida fan, but he has a severe dislike for Bobo that is quite personal.

Many such cases. Domestic violence between lesbian couples is intensely high. Close friend is a cop, and he sees this often.

Dated a girl for a while who I was her first relationship after having been in a relatively serious lesbian relationship in college. I didn't know that when we started dating, but she told me about it pretty early in our relationship. Regardless, she wasn't gay - at all, really. Her story was pretty similar to most. She had had some abuse in her background, and her mother (crazy bitch) essentially made her terrified of most men. One relatively masc girl picked up on it and started hovering around until ex gf gave her a chance. The reality was, ex gf wasn't really into it. But, she i guess tried(?) to be open to it, as previous relationships with dudes had been messy. Parents found out, and all hell broke loose. Ex gf split from the relationship, which had its issues outside of familial pressure, and that was that.

We had long talks about it. I guess the fact that she was with a masc made it easier for me to date her. Ex gf was an OT9. Truly gorgeous girl. Had she been with another smokeshow, probably would have had serious issues with it, as I can compete with a good looking woman. But I can't compete with a masc broad.

Anyway, we went separate ways, but I know she's married and has three kids. Still hot AF. Husband is a good looking cat, too.

Had another female friend of mine who told me the two best looking women in her sorority were together, secretly, for years in undergrad. One of the other sisters caught them together, and they came clean about it. Essentially, they were both so attractive that a lot of men didn't shoot their shots in college. And they gave each other a go. Have no idea what happened to them.

The three cursed NY teams all rhyme.


The Islanders wanted to be named the Veterans when they joined the NHL in 1972. Nets, Jets, Mets, Vets. The NHL said no. Instead, the Islanders played at Veterans Memorial Coliseum.

The Islanders are also the only franchise out if those 4 who have ever been consistently worth a shite. Their dynasty in the early 80s was legendary.
I know an IRL lesbian who is a solid OT7. She's a cute lady. Her "wife", though, looks like a teenage boy. OT7 had a string of sexual abuses and misadventures. The butch boy just figured out how to be safe enough, but masculine enough, for the OT7.

I truly don't think the OT7 is actually gay. But the boy absolutely is.

It's jerkoff.


Wanking is masturbating.


Yeah, this is literally what it means. But in American censorship, I'm not sure calling someone a jerkoff would elicit such a response from the panel. But calling someone a shithead would.

Also, James Corden sucks.
Nearest I can tell is somewhere around douchebag or shithead.

you watch, on the way out the door, the gulf nations will tell the usa to pack up their stuff in their countries and leave because they didn't protect them from iran.


Well, yeah. We couldn't protect Qatar, Kuwait, the UAE and other actual allies.

This will diminish the US's standing in the mideast, and ultimately ends with the US buying off Iran, just like we did to Egypt in the 70s.

A math teacher without a degree, hired at a prestigious school by former AG Bill Barr's dad, Donald Barr.

Epstein's ties to the intelligence community are undeniable.

Vance comes across as a very good leader in the article. My cynical mind wonders if he’s the leaker.


Of course. It allows him to save face and distance himself from the story, and be able to try and rebuild the coalition that Trump has dissolved in 2028.

I don't think it will work, but that looks like the play.

Isn’t Germany also Deutschland? Pretty sure it’s gonna still be Germany for the WC.


Exactly. We don't follow this with any level of consistency. We don't call Deutschland by its name, nor do we call Osterreich by its. Germany and Austria, get back to the back of the line.

And Finland and Sweden have the biggest gripes. Suomi is nothing like Finland, and Sverige only tangential to Sweden.

It's Turkey.

Not sure why people are arguing with me on this.


Because you're arguing on a message board, and this is what a message board is for.

It's not a secret that vast swaths of Europe have very low thresholds for hate speech. Organizing and even discussing such things is literally illegal in large parts of Europe.

So, the good citizens are quiet in public, but likely talk in private. But that time appears to have now passed, and there is demonstration, with the consequences of organizing being damned.
Billy Magnussen is killing it with these roles where he plays aloof douchebag tech bros.

suggesting a lot of bad policy was passed with barely a peep from anyone in Ireland, and while I am happy people are rightfully angry, I pointed out that they should have been more vocal sooner.


This operates under the assumption that the government in power has any willingness or desire to listen to what their constituents want.

The EU has proven that it does not care what the native Europeans want. It's essentially unelected and despotic. The people of Western Europe are being subjagated and lorded over by leaders that actually hate them.

Once upon a time, the US and England came to liberate Europe from despotism. Europe needs it again, but England is lost.

re: Dick Tracy

I was a kid that summer, and pretty sure I had a Dick Tracy t-shirt. The product tie-ins were everywhere. Heavily marketed to children.

I never saw it. Never had much interest in it, aside from the proto-Apple watch in the commercials. But the marketing was utterly ubiquitous.

Will be curious to see how rabid Knights fans are when their team isn't making the Stanley Cup Finals almost every other year.


Agreed, but I think Vegas has done such a phenomenal job weaving the team into the fabric of the community that the Knights really are Vegas' team. The raiders and As are just visiting, but the Knights belong to Vegas. When they have their inevitable rebuild/doldrum, they'll still have tremendous support.
