So that's why little Junior drinks! Thank goodness! I thought we were going to have to blame ourselves! I knew it had to be somebody else's fault. Whew! Close one, we almost had to take responsibility.

I want to do a study on the effects of having unlimited funds to buy what I want. It's a scientific study, of course. All data will be compiled and published.
Hey, it could happen.
In Fumo Pax Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.

I think that's been done, it was called "The Elvis Presley Story". There was a sequel, "Michael Jackson, King of Pop".

The Donald Trump secks scandal has “completely destroyed” Stormy Daniels’ writing and directing career, the adult film actress told members of the Oxford Union debating society Thursday evening.
The political “shitshow" of the last ten months left her with no capacity to write movies—her favorite part of working in porn—she said during an event entitled "Secks, Guns and Other Fluff: How Porn Can Set You Free."
Not that it's the world's hardest job (no pun intended) writing porn movies...
MAN AT DOOR: Pizza delivery. WOMAN IN NEGLIGEE: I...asked for extra sausage. MAN AT DOOR: This much...?
But politics, she said, is "a much dirtier job than [mine]."
“It has been a source of great pain to me to have met with so many among [my] opponents who had not the liberality to distinguish between political and social opposition; who transferred at once to the person, the hatred they bore to his political opinions.” —Thomas Jefferson (1808)
Stan Lee passed away. Bill Maher takes the time to insult his life and his fans. Bill Maher should go back to delivering pizzas.
It wasn't all bad. Some of what he said was the same stuff we say on this very forum, on this very thread. Stuff like this,........................................................................................................................... 20 years ago, “something happened — adults decided they didn’t have to give up kid stuff. And so they pretended comic books were actually sophisticated literature. And because America has over 4,500 colleges — which means we need more professors than we have smart people — some dumb people got to be professors by writing theses with titles like Otherness and Heterodoxy in the Silver Surfer. And now when adults are forced to do grown-up things like buy auto insurance, they call it ‘adulting,’ and act like it’s some giant struggle.”
Every generation has tried to bring along the good parts of their youth. Is that a surprise? From rock and roll to whatever, we have all done it. Is that a surprise? But for Bill maher to insult someone who has just passed away, someone with more intelligence and creativity then he will ever have, just for the sake of laughs from a bunch of deak head xxxxxxx is so far over the top it is disgusting, it can not be justified.
University staff told not to use ‘don’t’ or ‘frightening’ capital letters
I saw that this morning. As a college instructor, it makes me mad and sad at the same time. We have to prepare students for the real world. There are some mean people out there and they will not allow you to go off to a safe room with a stuffed animal and "feel better."

I won't be here to see it but you mark my words, the next generation and this kind of weenie BS and the liberals will turn this country on its head, it will be socialist and a complete failure. Preppers may very well be on to something.
Had an engineer mad yesterday because we didn’t give him credit for years worked at his previous job to count towards getting his extra week of vacation with us.
Just tell him that is something you ask for in negotiations before you accept a new job. After you accept a job on specific terms you lose the right to complain about it IMO.
Despite the high cost of living, it remains popular.

happens here every year, if there is unseasonably cold weather it is worse. It's useless to discuss the issue of climate change, people believe what they want.

Whatcha think about this? This one is from a nurse I know. I think it's funny, maybe you do too. But if she was caring for your sick vulnerable family member, does that change how you might feel about it? And what if you were her employer, and you saw this? Everybody's so easily offended these days, are they firing nurses/doctors/police for posting dark humor stuff like this?

I'd be more concerned about the nurse who didn't have a sense of humor.
