the original wangsock topic

I tried to google 'wangsock' to find a screenshot or something but..google failed. I had to add umaro's name to make it work.

oh and Quinn deserves a medal. and Rupert Friend should have gotten at least a nomination for a best supporting actor award for season 6.

It's like a few years ago when those fuckwits threw shit at an old painting in some museum to protest... what was it again?

they used oil to paint that!

lmao

London is going to be dealing with a mouse plague in a month

oh yeah those are rats, wtf?

in scifi or spy drama this would be a biological terrorist attack

I also watched the first ep of season 8.

I didn't see the resignation twist coming, I thought there would be a 3rd season in this arc with some more Russia stuff. Season 7 finished strong which is good because season 6 was a real slow burn and didn't feel like it fully paid off until the end of season 7, even with everything that happened at the end of season 6. I'm glad I marathon'd this instead of watching it live tbh.

I was also half expecting the Oval Office to get hit by a Russian missile during the re-swearing-in ceremony, after what happened at the end of season 2.

as for the first ep of season 8, I can't see any reason the CIA might have let Carrie back in other than them using her for something. hopefully they don't make Saul the bad guy after they kind of reconciled last season. and hopefully Max gets to help kill Haqqani after what he did to Fara.

If his feet cut the dudes throat, accident or not.....why shouldn't he be charged?

...if a boxer dies after the match the person who punched him out doesn't get charged unless he was hitting him after the ref called the match

what if my peepee pokes the baby?

I tip 25% at restaurants

having to tip preemptively for delivery after paying $10 in fees is just complete bullshit.

From Hawley himself:

Again, this doesn't stop dark money donations. He's doing this because most public corporations these days don't want to take the backlash of publicly supporting the GOP.

Basically this bill would stop donations from publicly traded corporations but NOT from non-profits, which is where the real dark money that went into things like overturning Roe comes from. Republicans are getting their asses handed to them with respect to publicly traded corps donating to campaigns, that's the only reason he is doing this.

true, I was forgetting that they consider every company woke now

vodka and tonic. sometimes with a splash of cranberry

margaritas are my favorite though

Shadow_Don posted...

For anyone who did a double take at who is sponsoring the bill, this wouldn't stop dark money going into the GOP. He is specifically going after "woke" corporations making donations.

it bans anything from publicly traded companies

It was 80 in Massachusetts this weekend. Winter will probably be awful this February

Says the people who struck down the law forbidding DeSantis from running for POTUS while governor of Florida.

it's almost like that law existed for a good reason

lol that must be embarassing

election is still over a year away and he doesn't even have enough money left to run a campaign

Real metal on metal contact doesn't cause sparks like that. I don't know if he's using a ceramic arrowhead or what, but this looks fake. >.>

Also, even if the truck is bullet or arrow or whatever proof, it still looks stupid.

huh? Yeah it does, with enough force

"The problem is DoorDash they're an evil company taking advantage of workers"

Okay stop using it then

"No"

Lmao refusing to tip isn't a form of protest or isn't sticking it to DoorDash. The only people getting hurt from that is the driver. And not tipping en masse isn't going to cause drivers to quit, it'll just make the drivers work more to make up for the lack of tips.

Yes DoorDash sucks, but so do people who recognize that and still refuse to tip while using their service. Just stop using it! It's easy.

ive literally only used them twice, and I had to because the restaurant doesnt even have its own drivers anymore

I was drunk and couldnt drive and had a craving for steak and cheese

Yeah, the only thing theyre doing is creating the next generation of terrorists. Same with the US in Iraq/Afghanistan

Its a good thing I picked 3

Well the audio quality is good but I definitely miss the bass from the old system.

might have to get a sub on Black Friday

My tv doesnt even seem to have its own speakers. My roomate took her surround system to her boyfriends house and we never got my TVs sound to work again. (I had her system when I got my tv and never even tried the sound without it)

Im not sure how 5.1 or 7.1 would work out for me since my living room and dining room are connected so theres a whole extra room the sound would bounce around in

Oops?

I was gonna get a cheaper one and a subwoofer and rear speakers but the guy said I wouldnt even need that with this sound bar

Sandalorn posted...

And I can claim I am the Overlord of the Universe but it doesn't make it so. It's not a surprise shit people who hate tipping found another phrase to assuage their shittiness. Happens every day.

if you have to pay it before the service is rendered its not a tip. Cant just change the definition of the word.

And how many lives are we comfortable volunteering to be made worse while we spend decades fixing society? Is your own among them?

capitalism already writes off the bottom 10-15% so everyone else can benefit, cant get too much worse than that

Then use one of the other services like UberEats or even Grubhub.

they have the same fees

ScazarMeltex posted...

If you don't want to tip the person bringing the food then go fucking get it yourself.

because there are already $10 in fees

Sometimes when I hear the 45 seconds worth of side effects Im just like nah, Id rather stick with the main problem

Wonder if that + Iran and Hezbollah fully joining in the Gaza conflict would make China go "fuck it" and invade Taiwan

Supporting Ukraine
Supporting Israel
Supporting South Korea
And defending Taiwan

All at the same time Is ALOT.

we're spending all that money on the military anyway

He left a note saying "I am not a killer" so seems like it was on purpose

and the source for that is...?

I heard this from one person once who said they only poop at home because they have to take all their clothes off

it's been like 9 years and I still don't believe them

6/10

I assume we have a carrier group in the area and SK wouldn't need much help anyway unless NK was getting a lot of help from China. help from Russia is basically off the table at this point.

it's funny because in a sci fi movie a warning about this would cause mass panic but in real life no one cares

we can't do anything anyway

That doesn't help your cause. Forgetting about stuff like One Winged Angel or Suteki Da Ne is pretty bad.

who?

uh, no

that's less than what you'd have to pay a 16 year old babysitter for that amount of time

It really doesn't need one.

it makes sense though

Is it an air toilet or a water toilet?

the thing that measures the water pressure doesn't work if air or whatever gets out

pretty sure it just needs a new gasket

the flusher worked fine and everything else looks normal. there's just no water.

If I have to shit its gonna take all day to flush

i was going to eat some chicken but I think I should switch to alcohol
