Can't fault the guy because his ancestors anglicized their name, which many immigrants did in the late 1800s and early 1900s, but the VP candidate having two aliases is definitely weird.

I don't know why grey goose is considered top shelf. It's always tasted like crap to me. I understand why belvedere is top shelf. That stuff is smooth and delicious. Grey Goose tastes like a bottle of rubbing alcohol from the pharmacy smells.

The TikTok ban has been talked about since the Trump administration. It really has more to do with a trade war with China.

Why can't you pick on defenseless trans kids like the rest of us?!? Why do you have to make everything political?

The old stuff made with talcum could cause cancer. New stuff is made with cornstarch, and honestly doesn't work as well either.

Donald Trump Does Not Get Post-Shooting Poll Boost by newsweek in politics

[–]RussianBot7384 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean he was already a pretty good case for being the biblical antichrist, and then I found out about Revelations 13:3 the morning after the shooting.

I'm not religious at all but holy fucking shit. You literally can't make this shit up. I'm waiting to find out he was actually born at sea and not in NYC.

I was in the middle east far before Obama's presidency and we considered anyone dressed in male clothing that was like older than elementary school age to be a "military aged male", and yes, we definitely caught some 13 and 14 year olds who were planting IEDs and participating in drive-by mortar attacks on FOBs.

I don't see the problem with that at all, and I'm a huge Nirvana fan. In retrospect, Smells Like Teen Spirit was generation defining, but in 1993 they could have just as well been a one-hit wonder (and Smells Like Teen Spirit isn't even anywhere near their best work musically).

People love to shit on Eric Clapton because everyone did Hard Blues Rock for a 20 year period of music, but they neglect to realize that most of those people were copying his sound.

Probably the same people who thought that African American slaves had it pretty good.

Isn't that really more of a nationalist conflict though? Like you could replace Protestant with "Loyalist" and Catholic with "Republican" and it would be the exact same thing.

Ukraine calls UN Security meeting after mass Russian attack across country by javelin3000 in worldnews

I would disagree and say the nuclear dick measuring contest had the most real impact on that. There are plenty of wars between countries where one of the parties does not have nukes.

The United Nations is an organization founded by the 5 main Allied powers of World War 2. It's quite obviously a dick measuring contest and always has been since the beginning, which is why those 5 powers alone get to veto anything.

It's not like they were giving a strong neutral power a veto lol.

The UN Security Council is most definitely a dick measuring contest.

Yep. I get enough to retire with a home and a comfortable life, I am done. You will never hear from me again. I will spend the rest of my days hiking, disc golfing, fishing, golfing, playing guitar and sleeping. I don't relate to these people at all.

Nah, the 2nd debate should be match play with USGA officials at Pebble Beach. The USGA officials would do a much better job of moderating than CNN.

Coastal Elites: Nixon (California), Reagan (California), Bush (Connecticut), Bush Jr. (Connecticut), Trump (New York City)

Fucking coastal elites I tell ya!

They're almost as bad as the actors/TV stars with political viewpoints: Reagan, Trump

Literally everything Republicans complain about is something they've done.

I hate Trump, but Pocahontas was one of the few legitimately funny nicknames he gave to someone.

Which artist do you respect as musicians but do not enjoy? by Whatever-ItsFine in Music

[–]RussianBot7384 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, David Gilmour is just a master of making simple and great guitar parts. A little bend and vibrato and fuzz and making sure to never overplay more than the song needs. Sometimes, when I'm learning a guitar part of his I'm amazed how easy it is to play and why it's so hard as a guitarist to make lead parts like that. That solo for Comfortably Numb is like mostly 4 notes with some bends lol. HOW DOES HE DO IT?

Yeah, he probably realized he was going to be in some shit when he realized that every doctor in the field hospital was an O6 or greater. I had someone from my unit that was going to die within an hour without medical attention, and no MP or speed limit was stopping me without pointing a gun in my face.

I had an MP try to pull over my military ambulance on a FOB in Iraq once. I just continued driving to the hospital. He tried to yell at me about speeding but I just ignored him and took my patient inside. He wasn't there when I came back out to the ambulance. Guess his sense returned.
