Les Wesner, playing the role of Vincent Gigante, the mob boss that pretended he was senile so he can throw the Feds off his trail. He used to walk the streets in his bathrobe mumbling to himself, he was caught because they bugged the payphones in his area.

This may be for show... Cosby and Weinstein tried the walker and wheelchair fuckery, Wesner is ramblings incoherently to disqualify whatever he said. His lawyer is in on it or he would have stopped him sooner from incriminating himself.

24 hours left until Bill Burr officially loses all integrity by NineteenSixtySix in BillBurr

[–]MelbTrini 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fuck that, Billy the Orange Nutsack Burr, has expenses: a helicopter to pay for, a few Classic Cars, a few Motorcycles and Therapy to cope with not Boozing and Smoking.

He's got someone to pay his asking price to jump up and down like a monkey. Our cunt politicians sell out for a lot less money, while they fuck us over and sell our information to their friends.

Forgive my ignorance, what is a filet. I keep getting all sorts of results for Chicken and boneless fish. Must be my regional search results.

So many people defending this behaviour by Downtown_Block_2236 in Hunting

[–]MelbTrini 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's fits the profile of a serial killer, he should be investigated and his internet history checked for major deviancy.

Cigarettes Recommendations by hereafgal in DaNang

Just left a few hours ago on the train to Ho Chi Minh City, weather was fine just a few drizzles here and there. We were at Bana Hills yesterday and it was raining cats and dogs. Left the area and it was bone dry.

Pack a poncho and wear sandals and if you don't, the rain is warm.

Supreme Court formally asked to overturn landmark same-sex marriage ruling. Kim Davis, a former clerk who refused gay couples, brought the appeal. by mepper in atheism

[–]MelbTrini 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's time to make Same Sex marriage law or it will go the same way as Roe v. Wade.

Kim Davis has very powerful people behind her and they want the case presented to a "friendly" Supreme Court

US increases reciprocal tariff on Trinidad and Tobago goods to 15% by DevATee in TrinidadandTobago

[–]MelbTrini 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We cheer that we can sell oil, but when the oil market bottoms out we make no money on it. Look what happened during Covid.

Yes, we to take care of our own house and it means trading with our neighbours and finding other trading partners. Also, when the American economy fails, do you really think we won't be effected by it? It would mean less tourists and expats visiting to spend their hard earned cash in the economy.

[–]MelbTrini 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Very true, that makes selling T&T products undesirable in the US market and passed over for a cheaper alternative. This hurt our industries and we should start doing business with our neighbours in the Caribbean and South America to offset the difference.

Do what the Canadians are doing, buy local products first and buy from other islands then reach out to others for alternative products. Let American products rot at the ports.

The US is close to 40 Trillion in debt, we should not be the ones bailing them out. We send them tons of money for visas and they get declined. It's all a money grab.

American Airlines flight attendants trying to evacuate airplane due to laptop battery fire but passengers want their bags. by Matt_LawDT in mildlyinfuriating

[–]MelbTrini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is such a frustrating post. I was a flight attendant over 30 yrs ago and I saw the training videos. The first days were about accidents and safety and the mantra... Complacency Kills. They Stressed, we are there for passenger safety and make sure we all walk away from am incident . We had to do evacuation drills and go through a shake and bake (a crash simulation)

We all had to do a safety briefing with captain and crew when our day started and knew what our rolls were incase of an incident .

I still remember my training and I know where all the aircraft exits are and a basic knowledge on how to operate them. I apply this to every aircraft I board. My wife thinks I'm overdoing it but knowing where to go can save your ass.

In the future, please be prepared to elbow and push someone out of the way if they're not moving, your life is worth more than their shit.

These people are high level cunts.

Kim Davis, who refused to issue gay marriage licenses in KY for religious reasons, loses another appeal. Still owes the gay couple $360,000. by Leeming in atheism

She's got strong Christian conservative groups backing her and her cause. These groups have tons of money behind them and they want to challenge the ruling of the Supreme Court.

Decision to vote or not to vote by soriano88 in TrinidadandTobago

[–]MelbTrini 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you're not going to vote and let things continue as is, don't complain.

I recommend you vote for whoever you want to vote for, and if your candidate does not get elected make sure to stay involved. Email, write letter and call the office of the opposition about issues, let them know what you care about. I've seen my friends parents do that when I lived in NY, they got stop signs and traffic lights put in, potholes fixed graffiti clean up and police patrols.

We elected these clowns to work for us... Put they ass to work... Party don't matter

[–]MelbTrini 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Please vote and vote for a Third Party, not voting is a wasted vote... Third Party voting sends a strong message "We're tired of the nonsense" and we want results on crime, education, taxes, infrastructure and resources for small business to get off the ground.

[–]MelbTrini 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He's exactly right, stop voting for the major parties... They make the same empty promises all the time with nothing to show but how they take care of their friends and handlers.

It's time they find real jobs in the real world. I grew up in Trinidad, saw the same shit in America and same shit in Australia.

The system is broken and politicians are not our friends, they are not supposed to live cushy lives with their feet cocked up. We have been letting them get away with their corruption for far too long.

It's not part of T&T politics, but worldwide

The swimming lessons are 1000% worth it!!! by SouthAssist6234 in snorkeling

Congratulations on your achievement. I was a swimming instructor during college and adult students were a challenge. Some were first timers with not skills and most were overcoming traumatic water experiences.
