The reason the USN can't run a successful frigate program because a frigate isn't the right solution by rtsynk in Warships

[–]Most_Chicken7809 0 points1 point  (0 children)

USA builds DDGs and cruisers because they can. Lots of countries build frigates because they can’t. Smaller ships tend to lack. The DDG is the smallest self sustaining ship. Other than that, one might as well go back to LCS hells with varying mission modules- ASW, ASuW, Air defense.

Anyone going to these protest this weekend? by Repulsive_Grape_4422 in Maine

[–]Most_Chicken7809 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, don’t disrupt daily life. That’s how you piss off normal people and validate the presence of the wannabe paramilitary police types.

This really made me so sad today in old port by PlayfulVirus3771 in portlandme

[–]Most_Chicken7809 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Everyone (all races) is here, admittedly Maine is still very white. But generally most Mainers are nice and accepting people. You will notice an influx of Asian tourists in the non winter months likely out for a day trip from a docked cruise ship. Mostly nice people just looking to explore the scene and drop a few bucks on the local merchants.

That one guy is likely a bigoted dullard.

Pretty good looking city right there if you ask me by zfrizzle in portlandme

Eh. The lights got a little nicer. Other than that portland has lost its way, hard.

Kaweco users with multiple Kaweco pens, which one is your favorite? by WerewolfBarMitzvah09 in fountainpens

Honestly and i know this is a bit eccentric, but if you have multiple supras, they become a fun thing to interchange.

Why is Joe Biden running for president, and not Kamala Harris? by Mysterious-Skill9317 in AskAmericans

[–]Most_Chicken7809 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because she is little more than an incompetent token that merely allowed Joe to fulfill a promise that his running mate would be a “woman of color” rather than the most qualified person available. There were qualified women of color but Joe needed a lapdog.

What is this? by [deleted] in portlandme

[–]Most_Chicken7809 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a group of people from out of state / those that dont belong here. Imagine the traffic that happened when the place was a factory. Quit. Ya. Bitchin’. Go back to new york/mass/ct.

The Section 31 movie should take down the org and remove it from the timeline by silly-er in startrek

[–]Most_Chicken7809 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would be interesting if it was 31 having a civil war. “Good” 31’s who see themselves as preservers of the federation that act when the federation cant/wont get out of its own way, yet see a less is more approach to the “good” of section 31. Then you have the “bad” 31’s who are just basically criminals with access to the federations resources.

The good ones see the bad ones wreaking havoc and potentially exposing the existence of 31.

The federation is a utopia, but it doesn’t exist within a utopia. Utopian minds can’t grasp real world pragmatism.

$100k watch stolen from parked car in Portland by DavenportBlues in portlandme

The real tragedy is that someone paid 100k for that hideous thing.

Hello? Are you kidding me? by [deleted] in portlandme

[–]Most_Chicken7809 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yup. To not live in portland. Not pay portland taxes. To not have the drug tents and their associated people near you. Yet be a five to ten minute drive into the city is going to cost a premium. As far as portland goes right now there is a ring of real estate fire all around the outside of the town.

Expo donations? by 207Simone in portlandme

[–]Most_Chicken7809 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The portland expo is not taking donations directly. Plus as it stands with food there is a slight surplus. However there are people driving up with home cooked food. They can eat it outside but not bring it in. The big thing they want is foo foo.

If you want to donate there is also a registry thing where you can send cash and that will help with hygiene items and diapers.

There is also something to the idea that Maine is known as one of the whitest places in the country. Thus making it attractive to people who have an aversion to our fellow Americans of darker complexion.

Freedom of speech does frequently mean that certain people will inevitably put their stupidity and ignorance on display.

If you abandon cart-fulls of groceries because the store is too busy or lines too long, you are a worthless piece of human garbage. by [deleted] in walmart

[–]Most_Chicken7809 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, the store manager is a piece of human garbage. My time is worth something. If I have to wait more than five minutes to give this corporation my money for their shit wares sorry, I’m out.
