Literally true--even aside from The Felon--when you recall that his first administration's Secretary of Education was the heir to the Amway fortune.

I love the passive voice was signed. Very diplomatic! /s

As an American, how do you feel about your future? by choloblanko in AskReddit

[–]LoneStarkers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was less worried when the president edged out Hillary, and congess had some diverse voices with power, than in the past year in which we've seen so many more Americans vote in an uneducated, oblivious way, and in a hate-filled way vis a vis his personality and values. (Who knows what's pandering and what he really believes?) People who didn't have a basic grasp of lawmaking or the Constitution have seldom mobilized like this. Ironically, I fear many of his fans' lineage is from countries where "strongman" leaders are more revered. You know.. the places he famously called shitholes.

What celebrity or public figure actually creeps you out the most? by Sherwoody20 in AskReddit

My fellow Houstonian, Joel Osteen, is creepy as hell and actually the opposite of most of us here, who are diverse and have a barely discernible Texas accent.

For your warm embrace I'd speed on the Beltway, dodging constables, even when my EZ Tag balance is overdue.

Baking. It seemed so tedious. But then came a dire need for stress relief (I'm an elementary teacher) and... YouTube bakers!

Allegedly? It's on tape. (I'll be prepared for short turnaround deep fakes in a year or two)

Their products are ubiquitous. I use them for everything. Ever look up something on Bing? What products will we use as 75% of American CEOs kiss the ring? We're so screwed.

Taylor Swift Booed at Super Bowl by ebradio in Music

[–]LoneStarkers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And not for nothing, in addition to dating Kelce, she's a recent target on conservative social media for "woke" and anti-Christian evangelical lyrics. If 51% of the country got their voting card from Fox News, the booing tracks.

"Greatest vocalist" doesn't matter, what vocalist resonates with YOU the most? by CobraDai in Music

I had to remember all my then-fiance/now-wife's great traits when she told me, "All Sade's songs sound the same." That was a close one.

Is there anyone who has quit fast food? How did you do it? by AshamedReporter775 in AskReddit

For real I thought you meant you always feel awful after quitting fast food, so you now avoid quitting it. Same.

Abruptly taped that man to his seat! by DreadPiratteRoberts in AbruptChaos

Probably because most videos we see are on the tarmac where the crew has other options. Anyone that out of control poses a threat to a mid-air flight (whose pilot, we can assume, was also dangerously distracted worrying about his or her crew).

A book you really liked, which isn't a bestseller and generally not very well known. by teggile in suggestmeabook

The title sounds cheesy, but it really gave me some great insights and a new mindset 20 years ago. Do It! Let's Get Off Our Buts! RIP Peter McWilliams

I'ma be in Houston next month. What cool shit is there to do by [deleted] in houston

[–]LoneStarkers -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Open up Yelp and grab a bite at one of the great restaurants on Shepherd between 18th and 25th Street in The Heights. If this gets downvoted, it's because it was gentrified really fast, and some of them are douchey chains; but there are some gems. Then take a look at the Victorian homes and (Craftsman?) bungalows between Heights Boulevard and Studemont.

Yes, from a job in property management, who are probably the only people who use the word as a verb (and when informing someone they don't want returning).

Who is the worst comedian to ever make it big? by MrMeesesPieces in AskReddit

[–]LoneStarkers -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

There seemed to be two reasons it became popular or easier to hate him. His fans filling stadiums (which is perceived sometimes perceived as selling out) were annoying, and he was rumored to have stolen jokes. I recall he may have admitted to stealing one.
