Re: Planet America

My point is that America has seen a lot of really bad shit, and its response has not been to get better. What good will seeing more bad shit do?

America needs to proactively improve, before more bad shit happens. And only Americans can make that happen.

Re: Weather

Damn, dude, flooding really sucks. What lots of people tend to forget is that water is heavy. It will absolutely wash your car downstream if you try to cross flood waters. People tend not to take that into account, which is why even a small amount of flooding can be so devastating.

Re: Planet America

Some half wits simply cannot learn. Anything. And we all know that old saying about not learning from history.... Sorry GM, but no. This country isn't going to any better. Until it gets a big shiload worse. Fuck. You've already lived through 9/11, Sandy Hook and January 6th. How much worse do you w...

Re: guns 2

It's often said, quite rightly in my opinion, that there is no such thing as an accidental discharge of a firearm. There is only negligent discharge.

Re: life's little aggravations

My big beef with huge 4WDs in an urban setting is that if someone makes a mistake and that vehicle hits me in my small-to-mid-size Honda Jazz, that grill is coming in at my head height. An airbag is not going to keep my head on in that kind of impact.

Re: Weather

It's been raining pretty steadily here since yesterday afternoon. The nice kind of rain, not the sudden torrents that cause flash flooding.

Re: Pssst! Wheres the Joe Biden thread?

He's a famous liar, like Trump... No, Biden is nowhere near as egregious a liar as the ex-President. Not even remotely. Not even in the same ballpark. Not even in the same network of ballparks. As I have said previously, there are a lot more reasons why a politician may be unable to fulfil election...

Re: Planet America

Well, Gen Ripper was also very concerned about the state of his precious bodily fluids, so let's just take that with a grain of salt, shall we?

I've said before that the biggest takeaway from this whole situation is that the US government does not have a handle on classified document management.
