  1. Bernie is unelectable. The Rs were voting for him, same as the Ds were voting for Trump.

    Once all the decent D's stepped aside for Hillary (her turn, vagina), it was over. An opportunistic socialist changing parties wasn't really helpful.

    In the parallel universe where Hillary won, Chelsea is the future emperor. Am I shitposting? You decide.

    Like I say, Enjoy they next 7 years.

    What's the Indian rate per driver? It's _easy_ to have a low rate per person. Just don't have any vehicles.

    I bet the road fatality rate at McMurdo station (Antarctica) is really really low.

  3. Scum Skidding. on 'Bird Scooters Are Ruining Venice' (latimes.com) · · Score: 1

    When new kids moved into the neighborhood, we took them 'scum skidding' as an initiation.

    They'd follow us on bikes. We'd go ride through the green algae in the local paved over creek (think LA river).

    The trick is to get up your speed before you got to the zero friction area, then coast, absolutely straight. The new kids didn't know that, so they were 'scum skidding', ended up looking like the 'Swamp Thing'. Good times.

    10% of the population doesn't have the IQ to do any job in the military.

    That's not the same thing as 'can't do any job at all'. For instance: Senator, FISA court Judge, cop, fellatio specialist, Sociology professor are all in their reach.

    Ha ha, no. They work for cash, same as the 'disabled'.

    Their the ones you see because you gotta be tough to keep a good panhandling spot.

    Whatever you do, don't give them a penny. The ones in the 'great spots' are the violent ones.

    If they're holding onto a baby, and you give them money, YOU are responsible for that baby being on the side of the road for 20 hours/day! 3 shifts of adults earning 'lawyer billing rates' with that baby.

    Everywhere you look?

    The canals _are_ the sewers.

  8. All enjoyed the Reagan economic boom.

  9. Enjoy!

    I just thank god for the time travellers that turned the election. Too bad we can't do anything to help their dystopian timeline. Shooting Chelsea in this one wouldn't accomplish anything.

    Enable Sunni/Shia war to restart...worked great.

    We knew exactly what would happen, Cheney said as much when we didn't kill Saddam during the first Iraq war.

    We have _dealt_ with the source of the problem, we arranged the Sunni/Shia war to get rolling again.

    If it's played right, that war will simmer on, until oil is irrelevant and the whole arab world is back to starving.

    So your claim is that opponents of the 2nd should get a pass because they're stupid? Just because they can't read history, doesn't mean they're correct.

    Libya peaked at 5th most prosperous country in Africa.

    Stop making shit up.

  17. President Trump, say it chump. Get used to it.

  18. Your on crack dude. But keep it up.

    Four more years!

  19. I'm not concerned about the last _100_years_ of proven Russian interference in our political process.

    Because Russia is, economically, about as big as New York City.

    I might be concerned if we had a president who took his wife to Lenin's tomb for their honeymoon. But that was Sanders, so no worries.

  20. You really should change where you're getting your news. It's deranging you.

  21. Turnabout is fair play.

    Ds are still giving B Clinton credit for the last eight years of the Reagan boom.

  22. Obviously? Deplorable half? So you think about 25% of the population is in that bucket?

    You are just as bad as she is. You still don't get it.

    Also we know your full of shit regarding dems and gun control. They don't even bother lying about it when they're speaking to their pet morons.

    Commie theory, as espoused by the GGP, says that they would simply have to be worth more as time passed.

    That's just false, even at the Billionaire level. They've pissed away 2/3 of it.

  25. Go for it. Don't stop there, get an 8 track. I hear 'Realistic' is the best brand that all audiophiles use.
