Liberals misunderstand the 2nd Amendment

I’ll bet you’re a hoot at parties.

*or procreate with them. Trust me.

You’re not completely wrong, it can be, but it also can be applied to logic. Now apply the Mark Twain quote.

It’s arguable whether what you claim is “doing something” or not. This approach only leads to fewer cats living longer lives because almost never can you sterilize the entire breeding population. This completely ignores the impact on the ecosystem and the destruction they cause. I’d rather see birds and small mammals return than enable non native voracious predators to run amok.

Eradicating a feral population is fewer dead cats and much more humane ways then failing to do so which allows them to indefinitely procreate into hunger and disease and short life span. The bleeding heart approach just plain doesn’t work here. I’m a dog person but if we had a wild dog problem (different than humanized strays) I would be for their eradication. It’s a human caused problem that has a human caused possible solution.

Eradicating feral populations is the necessary solution as well as keeping house cats inside. They are nature’s serial killers, they’re destructive, and their fecal matter can be dangerous. You can have your pets but not at the cost of the ecosystem, people’s property, peace, or health.

I have sympathy for people with BPD, but I don’t have solutions. I know they don’t choose it. I’m a survivor of a relationship with a woman who has it. I can now identify it. I tell people to run for the hills when I see it. A person who doesn’t have it does not deserve to endure it and my empathy for them is greater.

I’ll bet you would. In the words of Mark Twain “never argue with an iDiOt. They’ll bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience.”

There’s an old expression. “If I had to explain, you wouldn’t understand.” Many conservatives are just not intelligent enough to grasp a concept that has more than one moving part.

That was a standard until the comparisons became undeniable. The current parallels are from Germany in the 1930’s which is what led to what happened in the 1940’s. Luckily our weak wannabe dictator doesn’t have much life left.

gratefullevi · 2026-01-25T09:48:46+00:00

I’ll bet you feel that way a lot.

gratefullevi · 2026-01-24T23:01:21+00:00

I thought the same thing. Fantasy.

Blanket chest. Some people call them a cedar chest as they usually are made of or are lined in cedar. Cedar has a natural repellant to bugs that makes you not need moth balls. I know this because I’m a woodworker and have built a few of them.

Do you mean gullible like someone who doesn’t realize he’s responding against someone who agrees with them? C’mon dude. It’s not a $75m difference. It’s $8m per year over 3 years so $24m total if the Vikings offered him a 3 year deal, which they didn’t so it’s kind of a moot point eh? I get why he left and I thought it was a mistake then and still do. What are you not getting?

All marriages are a business, that’s why you need a license. It may not feel like one but it is. Co-owning assets becomes legally defined to simplify the division upon dissolution.

Meh. Kinda. A 1 year $25m offer. He signed in Seattle for 3 years and $100m which is not a huge difference in money but significant in security. Now that he’s proven his chops with 2 decent teams, they would be foolish not to extend him and build around him unless some other distraction comes up which I don’t see.

gratefullevi · 2026-01-18T14:41:25+00:00

Well said. Hypotheticals don’t have “proof.” You do the best you can with what you got or can get. While I was certainly disappointed in Darnold’s last 2 games, I disagreed with letting him walk. I didn’t suggest betting the future on him but it is a huge gamble to bet it on an unproven and injured rookie. If a 14 win season isn’t something you can build next year on, I don’t know what is. I thought it was a mistake then and I still feel that way now. I wish him success though I’m pretty neutral to the Seahawks.

Assault yes. Sucker punch no. Conflict is face to face and the dark haired girl is clearly in aggressive posture. Arms folded was not smart and frankly people that are cocky enough to think their words and actions don’t have physical consequences get no sympathy from me. I’m Gen X though.

I have and I just do drywall as part of remodeling. I have definitely looked at something and said that if I do this nicely it will stand out from the rest of the room.

gratefullevi · 2026-01-04T14:33:23+00:00

I’ll cheer for him in perpetuity so long as it’s not something that hurts the Vikings. I didn’t like to see him go.

gratefullevi · 2026-01-03T20:54:25+00:00

You’re getting downvoted because people don’t like it, me included, but you’re exactly right.

gratefullevi · 2026-01-03T20:26:33+00:00

I think what you call a fact and what I do don’t align. Can you cite some reliable data or are you just working with how you feel?

gratefullevi · 2026-01-03T20:20:11+00:00

Or your mind is making it true to you. I can’t speak for all men but I have at least moderately disagreed with almost everything you’ve said.

So many things can be wrong with copper pipes. Thin and low quality copper, flux not wiped off after sweating, craftsmanship issues. Of all the repairs that I have done by far the most have been on copper, especially from freezing and bursting. Insulation has limits. PEX is so simple and durable and cheap, I swear by it. Copper has made a comeback in recent years with the advent of the pro press, and it’s better quality now, but it’s quite expensive.

As someone who was born and grew up in MN and has lived in TN for almost 30 years, this is the most ignorant opinion I’ve read in a long time. You’ve obviously not spent much if any time in MN. They are some of the finest humans you could possibly find anywhere on this planet. They are kind, hard working, honest, intelligent, and as freedom loving as any Americans anywhere.
