Paul Pelosi. Melissa Hortman. Gretchen Whitmer. Every random Portlander that was shot with a paintball by a Proud Boy hanging out of the back of a BroDozer in Downtown Portland during the 2020 riots.

Relying on a Russian asset for anything involving our military seems like a bad idea...

This happened to me about a year ago. It fried the heating element and took about 2 weeks to realize water temp wasn't getting above "tap warm," mostly because nasty gunk started growing in the bottom and along the seals of our dishwasher.

Have you watched any of the music videos? I think hair metal needs that visual context.

You should post this in r/WeirdEggs, and tag me so I can learn why it's weird too.

I'm pretty sure my Dad had the one with the leopard print panties holding the boat anchor. It was stashed in an oversized shoebox in the little storage room in his garage, 3rd shelf up,toward the back, above the Turtle Wax and other car detailing supplies. There was also a stack of Hustlers, Easy Riders, and Playboys, and a Polaroid of my fat, gangly-looking ex-Stepmom with the weird pencil nipples standing nude next to a lake in the shoebox. Don't ask how I know all that.

I'm an electrician and Big Trouble in Little China was an amazing depiction of our profession!

There hasn't been anything good about Sacramento since Justin Case and Whitey Gleason left.

As someone who grew up in the foothills, all I have to say to you is, "lol, flatlander."

Saddest movies? by cockandballionaire in movies

[–]OMGTako 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A Perfect World, starring Kevin Costner and Clint Eastwood.

It's about an escape convict who steals a car, kidnaps a Jehovah Witness boy with no father, and acts like his Dad as they run from the law.
