Topic | One year later, what really happened to Jeffrey Epstein? |
K181 02/05/20 8:38:20 PM #9 | The only reason why I don't think Trump had him killed is because I think he would've bragged about it on Twitter by now. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |

Topic | i dont see how people can watch THIS and say ''Pro wrestling is fake'' |
K181 02/05/20 4:58:00 PM #10 | Scripted =\= fake. Saying wrestling is fake is like saying that a play or a movie or a tv show is fake. Yeah.....? --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |

K181 02/05/20 4:17:44 PM #14 | The United States doesn't even have an autonomous manned space capacity any more (we rely on the Russians for that now). I'm not going to bet on us when every damn administration hits the reset button on the previous administration's space program and delays our heavy lift capacity a few more years. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |

K181 02/05/20 11:44:34 AM #6 | Tmaster148 posted... Isn't he up for election this year. It's not nessecarily a smart move, but I respect him for it. He has a tiny chance of getting reelected as it is. His best chance is to keep the coalition that voted for him happy while hoping for a depressed GOP turnout. And I think most polling is showing Moore will get shellacked in the GOP primary, so he's not going to have as disgusting of an opponent as he had in all likelihood, even if he lands Sessions as his opponent. And sticking with his fellow Democrats opens the door for him for future gigs with the party as well, especially with a future administration. A Southern Dem in a cabinet position is a pretty attractive option for most Democratic presidencies, especially if he creates a narrative that he fell on the sword electorally to do the right thing. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |

Topic | MLBCE - Pete Rose has asked for MLB reinstatement due to Astro's scandal. |
K181 02/05/20 10:55:32 AM #4 | Cheating to win is not the same as challenging the structural integrity of the sport by gambling on games that you play in and manage. Rose broke the cardinal rule of professional baseball that was established in the infancy of the game and which has a warning against doing so in every club house. He knew what the punishment would be if caught, and given that he's such a huge fish he has to be held to that standard. If it applies to an otherwise surefire Hall of Famer, you bet your ass it applies to a random journeyman or a career minor leaguer. And furthermore, he only claims that he never bet against his teams. He also spent a couple decades saying that he never actually bet on baseball, so he's a proven liar and I'm not taking his word at it. Not to mention that his gambling on some games definitely played a role in his roster and gameday decisions, as in taking players out earlier in games he didn't bet on to keep them healthy for game he did bet on and vice versa. tl;dnr: fuck Pete Rose --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |
Topic | Are Muricans so arrogant that they cut Euroasia in 1/2 so US would be in the mid |
K181 02/05/20 5:57:18 AM #11 | It's a very good map display to highlight distance from the United States and for a nation that once fought a two ocean war. Not to mention that no area is actually cut, as there's considerable overlap on both edges to show the same areas twice anyway. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |

K181 02/04/20 4:34:05 PM #49 | Overall, Comm. They just constantly claimed that no no, it was a real and difficult major, you guys. To start out though, Philosophy. I swear, Philosophy 101 just brought out pretentiousness out of everybody that took it. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |

K181 02/04/20 4:31:54 PM #15 | I prefer to have later lunches, as I dislike having more than half the day ahead of me after lunch. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |
Topic | The Iowa caucuses just died forever |
K181 02/04/20 1:26:56 PM #14 | Good. Caucuses are stupid and Iowa is a worthless drivethrough state and doesn't warrant national focus every four years. Take away the college football and junior hockey and there's absolutely nothing in that state worth mentioning. They're practically a Dakota. Every state that borders it would be a more sensible first contest state except South Dakota. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |
Topic | How do you deal with your anger |
K181 02/04/20 1:25:27 PM #6 | Always helps that I work out and help train at my old boxing gym a couple times a week, so bag training helps out with reducing stress and anger. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |
Topic | Nintendo: Switch is in the middle of its lifespan |
K181 02/04/20 12:56:59 PM #2 | Yeah, it came out three years ago this March. A six-year generation sounds about right. Just hope that the Switch 2/Switcheroo is just a better upgrade rather than Nintendo being dumb and chasing some fever dream. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |

K181 02/04/20 12:00:19 PM #33 | I'd call him an idiot and move on. My wife and I have four kids that are all healthy, so far happy, and so far seemingly kind kids. We hit the lotto there. Loads of people have kids with severe health issues or have difficulty even having kids, whining because you want your son to like chicks is just utterly moronic. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |

K181 02/04/20 10:55:34 AM #334 | Ever screw up so bad that someone else has to just throw away everything you did and start all over again? Iowa just did that, and now New Hampshire is the de facto first contest of the 2020 campaign. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |
Topic | Greta Thunberg nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize |
K181 02/03/20 4:54:25 PM #23 | As I said in another topic, nominations for them are pointless as literally thousands of people have nominating abilities. George W.

Topic | Resident Evil 4 remake is inevitable. |
K181 02/03/20 2:25:40 PM #26 | DoGCyN posted... Outside of moving and shooting, I don't personally think it needs one. Everything else in the game has aged so damn well and it's already had it's full life in sales. ... "outside of moving and shooting?" You mean the gameplay? You just admitted that the game could use a remake by that statement. And even disregarding that, you wouldn't want to see the RE4 world remade with the fidelity of the remake engine? --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |
Topic | Resident Evil 4 remake is inevitable. |
K181 02/03/20 1:59:27 PM #17 | SwayM posted... Screenshotted Yeah. I don't get how anyone could remotely say that there isn't room for improvement to RE4 when the base game has had rereleases that have already improved on it from one system to another from its original console generation. Even if they literally only tighten up the graphics (on level three), make a few quality of life tweaks, and slightly refine the controls, that's a couple million unit sales there alone. I'm fully expecting a complete RE4 remake within the next two or three years. The only doubt in my mind is if they do Code Veronica first or if they skip it and focus on just the numbered titles in order. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |

Topic | $10,000 or absolutely no back pain for the rest of your life |
K181 02/03/20 12:23:34 PM #20 | Chronic back pain is a significant issue for most elderly, so while my back has always been fine as an almost 36 year-old, it'd be dumb of me to assume it'd always be the case. I'd easily trade 10K for guaranteed no issues with a major health and lifestyle issue for the rest of my life. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |
Topic | Is your vehicle parking itself while you're not in it even legal? |
K181 02/03/20 12:18:15 PM #10 | As far as I'm aware, you have to be in your car behind the wheel while the vehicle is intentionally moving otherwise it is a moving violation in most of the United States. So that commercial would be ticketable in most places in the United States. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |

K181 02/03/20 12:14:24 PM #24 | Don't try to tax me too much and let me do what I want if I'm not harming others, but also don't discriminate against minorities, actually fund social programs and infrastructural improvements for the betterment of society at large, and fucking let black people vote without putting up barriers left and right. Yeah, sure is a dumb core set of values to have. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |
Topic | Biden: The good news is Senate Republicans will be normal again if I win |
K181 02/03/20 12:03:38 PM #27 | The thing about Biden is that it's hard to know what he really is bringing to the table. Is he an Obama-era and earlier throwback attempting to create a message of normalcy and sanity or is he just an old fogey that's completely out of touch? I honestly find it near impossible that a guy that was front and center to eight years of obstructionism by the modern national GOP could be so clueless as to expect a mere single electoral victory by the Dems would snap the Republicans out of it, and personally think that his entire narrative is trying to appeal to the middle by making it sound like relatively functional government is still possible. After all, his appeal has essentially been that he's a mostly known quantity and isn't proposing anything too radical. The dude was a ridiculously accomplished Senator and a foreign policy specialist despite the gaffes that always get brought up, so it's not like he was a dullard to begin with. But his continued toeing the line on bipartisan talk and how the GOP will moderate post-Trump makes me question that benefit of the doubt that I've given him. I'm a Republican sick to death of the national Republican Party, and I have zero expectations the party will return to even the Gingrich era of handling things for the foreseeable future. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |

Topic | Joe Biden stealing valor |
K181 02/03/20 11:17:38 AM #18 | Was that footage taken at a rally of his? If she's a Bernie supporter but went to a Biden rally, then I don't see anything wrong with the Biden camp using footage of a crowd at their own campaign. Also, yeah... any combo of "stolen" and"valor" had a very specific legal definition and colloquial understanding, and this ain't it even if they specifically went out of their way to use someone they knew didn't support their guy. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |

Exaggerated, at least in the UK. As is usually the case, the influx of skilled and unskilled labor is almost always a net societal and economic boost.

K181 02/01/20 8:13:08 AM #3 | Brits lose free movement across the continent and will now not be able to move to EU member states anywhere nearly as easily as they could previously, Britain will have to renegotiate trade agreements with the EU and will definitely not have the same favorable terms that they had as a member state, and they will likely still be beholden to certain EU standards as matter of it being their largest trading partner while now having zero say on said standards. Net result, the British economy will shrink and the travel abilities of their citizens will become significantly more restricted. Oh, and the Northern Irish border issue has yet to be settled, and Scotland will probably hold a new independence referendum. --- Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less. |
