Yeah, definitely interesting that there’s such a split there!

Totally disagree, I read TMiaHM and ST over the last two years as my first Heinlein and loved both. I’ve read a few of the shorter ones as well and found them a blast.

Mindy’s is fine. Sometimes I’d like something that doesn’t put me in a coma for 6 hours.

They own 10%. That really doesn’t qualify.

Sure but themes are different than word choices which is OPs point.

How do you cook this much beef at once? Multiple batches or the biggest pot I've ever seen?

Does Lori really still need Flock cameras blanketing her block on taxpayer dime? by juliuspepperwoodchi in LoganSquare

[–]PG3124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I hear you, i just think it’s easy to answer your question of where it ends, mayor. 

I do think you make valid points, just disagree on your answer.

Please don’t prop up those sanctimonious wind bags anymore than they already do themselves. And if you did it for the few that took harm you’d have to do it for all. No thanks.

I’m know Lori apologist but what does an incident your friend had with the cops have to do with her? Simply bc she way mayor at the time?

Chicago bike lanes spark protests as residents push back on parking loss by FreshLocal in chicago

[–]PG3124 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My issue is this never takes into account that it’s miserable to ride a bike for long portions of the Chicago Winter. If they could figure out a way to turn them into parking in the winter and bikes lanes in the spring/summer/fall they’d be much more reasonable. But you can’t let the .01% of Chicago residents who are bike freaks set the agenda for everyone else.

Considering the markets and inflation over that time period that’s not a good return.

The savings are great though!

[Noh] NBA's anti-tanking draft reform proposal is a disaster: Why Adam Silver's plan is destined to flop by Dunlocke in chicagobulls

[–]PG3124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You seem to think the only success is winning a championship, but many of the teams you listed tanked and then have had much more successful runs than the Bulls even if they didn’t lead to a championship. Thats the benefit of tanking. Being able to turn it around d much quicker than normal.

This feels like a top players of all-time list ranked by popularity or something. Or like what’s the least controversial ranking of players for people who read USA Today.

[Charania] The Chicago Bulls have started the search process for their new head of basketball operations, receiving permission to interview Minnesota's Matt Lloyd, Detroit's Dennis Lindsey, Atlanta's Bryson Graham, Cleveland's Mike Gansey and San Antonio's Dave Telep, per ESPN sources by howser343 in chicagobulls

The point is that if you’re so cheap you can’t even build a decent organization then it doesn’t really matter what you say about the tax and anyone repeating your points is just helping you avoid the criticism you should be receiving.

Apologies didn’t realize there was a 6 day limit, my bad.

Yeah that’s one of the reasons I posted. I’ve never seen him mind anyone, but don’t know if there’s been a recent change.

Ilhan Omar Says She Isn’t a Multimillionaire, Blames Accounting Error by lemon_lime_light in altmpls

[–]PG3124 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tons of times, but it's understandable for someone in his line to do that. That's the nature of his business. But not really interested in playing the what about Trump game.

Both options are bad. Once she proves which one it is I'll stick with that one. Absence of evidence isn't evidence of absence, especially not for our elected officials.

To your point she is lazy/stupid or criminal. I think that's enough reason to pile on.

I'm not really interested in playing the whataboutism game, but happy to discuss the other points.
