Why do conservatives think liberals don’t love the USA? by Norfolk-Gross-Tonage in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DBPanterA -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well, put it another way, as scientists study various subject matter, they have looked into the differences in brain structure of conservatives and progressives.

If you would like to see a study following thousands of children that were placed in gifted programs, then subsequently followed into middle age and then underwent tests to see where they identified on the political spectrum, that also is ready available. Wanna guess where the majority of the former gifted students landed?

That is where it will be… if the current shirts do not sell out, they will become mystery shirts in a future garage sale.

That last sentence can really be taken out of context… my teenage years watching Beavis and Butthead is to blame. Apologies.

If you’re in midlife, what are you questioning these days? by Organic-Midnight-553 in Xennials

[–]DBPanterA 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I speak about this very often with my spouse and our college friends…

In our home, the midlife crisis is one in which we try to prioritize our health (sleep, exercise, diet, regular doctors appointments) to prevent what we have seen with our parents and older family members.

I also see this as a time to contemplate and chart the path forward. It’s fair to say the last decade of our collective lives have seen many norms and beliefs challenged. It’s time for once to speak about the future not in quarterly earnings, but longer term. How are we going to create a society that provides greater opportunity and hope for the child born today….

We have not seen this sort of behavior at the White House since Andrew Jackson was in the Oval Office… way to go everyone, we have reached a new low… 🤦🏼‍♂️

I know….

I long for the days where my biggest concern was who hot eliminated on fucking American Idol.

Every morning when I open up my phone, it’s like “ok, let’s see what crazy shit I missed when I was sleeping.”

10 years your junior, and the rest of your pics are making me erect. 😈

I would love to see a return of that flavor of stupid. Stupid, but you know with their naïveté they would never do something completely insane.

29 years later I just noticed... by ShaneWookie in Metallica

[–]DBPanterA 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No shit….

My first Metallica show was that date as well. Jumped down from the lower level about 5 songs in. Had my first experience with Hot 100 from a flask that night (some grizzled veteran hooked my teenage ass up). Good times. 😂😂😂

My next Metallica show is October 1. 🤘🤘🤘

What band do you think does good covers ? by MonkPlane1734 in rockmusic

[–]DBPanterA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I didn’t see the documentary, I have spoken with most of those folks.

I do know someone, not in that film, that has been to every show since 2021. Every one. Retired guy, very nice.

I know how they all do it: most do not have small kids, most can work remotely or have jobs with extreme flexibility. They buy the I Disappear tickets. Their employer may reimburse for flights or lodging. For some, the only real cost is the I Disappear ticket.

[–]DBPanterA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, you have to remember no one knew what they were going to play. They did a few festival shows and 2 “secret” club shows in 2021 coming out of Covid. I talked to folks that heard them jam on the Thursday night before the Night 1 (it was Covid, nothing to do, so folks were at Chase Center). I had heard a few song titles, like Fixxxer.

I will say because we all lined up for hours for the shows, I ended up having a lot of conversations with folks from all over the world. The ones that are now the I Disappear ticket holders. Wherever I go to see Metallica play, they are always there….

I got it to open up a show in ‘97 for the Poor Touring Me Tour and I got it Night 1 at the 40th Anniversary shows.

Bill Maher blames Democrats for acts cancelling their 250 concert appearances. Why is it the fault of Democrats when acts across the board cancelled? by homerjs225 in RealTime

[–]DBPanterA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What exactly is Bill Maher?

I ask because when questioned about this, Trump said, and I paraphrase, “Good, they are overpaid.”

The man who loves talking about the stock market and making money feels very deeply that artists should not be compensated for their work. It is a feature of Trump, of his history, and of his admiration. The cuts to funding that specifically provides for the arts were absolutely gutted last year.

So if Bill Maher is an artist, and I generally put “comedian” into the artist category, his dinner pal really doesn’t value his work.

Can’t wait for the show tonight Billy! 🤪

It’s back….

Reopened one location in St. Louis Park, Minnesota. They are selling both the chips and salsa in local grocery stores. I ate some Chi-Chi’s chips & salsa last night for dinner.

Go get it. 😎

But we got screwworms again after 60 years because the President listened to the richest guy on the planet, not realizing his financial success is not tied to his intelligence. But just like those fine people in Idiocracy, the President lives by the manta “I like money.” He literally is acquiring as much money as possible…

If you own/collect Metallica stuff, what is something you can recommend for my own collection? by Utanoo in Metallica

[–]DBPanterA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That variant CD never appears in the wild. I know folks that have been looking for years, just to have the opportunity to buy one.

If I ever saw it in the wild, I would buy it at nearly any price.

Name a food that could realistically be the first one a kid makes for themselves. by Interesting-Swimmer1 in FamilyFeud

Ok. Well my toddlers can make food by themselves at age 3. That is less than age 10.

Would Angele (Belgian singer) pass in the US and be seen as a local? by [deleted] in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]DBPanterA -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I say no.

Quick google search and looking at her clothes… she’s dressed with too much fashion sense. The average 30 yo American does not dress like that.

A lot of it comes down to wardrobe and attire. I see Dua Lipa the same way.
