A pro-choice, anti-2A "moderate." Kasich can suck a fat one.

Spoiler: Brits and co. win. "They Shall Not Grow Old." Where's the documentary about your life, @plenzmd1? "They Long Ago Grew Old?"

There are several posters that have been active in the TBD community going back to the 90's but due to migration issues their accounts only go back to 2001.

They just want to be loved by you

You think so? I hated it. Most of the lines inserted for levity seemed ill-timed and sometimes just plain out of place. I thought the pacing sucked too. Plus nothing really drew me in. No real drama, nobody really likable. And what the hell was that ending?

I don't have a comprehensive definition, but if you're ripping a bong before you shower and shave in the morning, you're a pothead.

That she was. She did a lot of the stereotypical crazy girl things: got mad when she saw my sister's name come up on my phone, showed up at places I told her I'd be with my friends, flipped out when she caught me hooking up with another girl, expected me to text her "good morning" every day, that sort of *****.

A girl I had been seeing for about three weeks got me one of those multi-frame things you put photos of your family in and hang on the wall...all with photos of herself except for one which was the only photo of the two of us that existed. Anyway I saw her for a couple more months but she only ever got my burner phone number.

I've been known to cut people who are associated with police, military, etc. breaks here and there...but then I've also been known to cut people breaks with no such associations. If they do things the right way, that is. Fun story, recently I did an overtime detail looking for one specific violation of the law. The way the law works, the same offense is categorized under the penal law as a felony, and under vehicle and traffic law as a violation. So whenever someone possesses this particular item, there are two options: ticket or arrest. I always ticket for this unless it's in the furtherance of terrorism, significant fraud, or they're being a real *****. Got one girl who was acting belligerent and talking about how her dad was a state trooper. My response: "great, let me get his number." Call him up and explain the situation to him, knowing he knows the law back and forth. He understands completely and asks to talk to his daughter. Her face went from smug to tail-between-the-legs really quickly, and I hear him screaming. She hands the phone back to me and he says, "thanks for the heads up, we won't ask for a supporting dep."

I was early too, probably 5 or 6. Learned on the school bus. I feel like that's the case for a lot of kids.

Guess you haven't watched much high school basketball or football lately. Some observations: 1. Standards for hiring in many departments are going up, but salaries aren't. My department requires a four year degree to apply. NYPD requires 60 college credits. Starting salary for an NYPD patrolman is currently $42.5k. 2. Many police departments are woefully understaffed. Look at the departments in Texas and New Mexico that are practically begging people to apply. My department is understaffed and processing applicants like crazy. Same with VSP and many departments in MA. Most applicants can't get past the initial physical exam, many more get bounced during background/polygraph/psych. That's on top of the fact that we get fewer applicants than at any time in recent memory. 3. Cops can't just let a criminal go. That's not how it works. If they don't appear to be a threat, you attempt to gain compliance through presence and the implied threat of physical response. If you cannot gain compliance that way, you gain it through physical action. This is non-negotiable. We aren't Macy's loss prevention. 4. Use of force is a continuum, and the level of force required can change quickly, drastically, and with little warning. 5. Unarmed does not mean not a threat. 6. Many departments do not require yearly physical testing and ongoing standards. This is a shame. Out of shape cops are a danger to themselves, their fellow officers, and the public. I refuse to work with slobs and I go well out of my way to avoid doing so.

All I know is that @plenzmd1's gumbo sucks.

Here's what's hilarious about this whole thing, and another thing that leftist morons in this thread don't get: according to the Bible, it would actually be worse for Trump, who is not a Christian, to recite the Creed because it would be an act of dead religion that comes under the wrath of God. Since he's not a Christian, nobody should expect him to believe it or recite it. He actually demonstrates some small amount of integrity by not doing so. The Clintons and Obamas, meanwhile, display the exact amount of integrity I expect out of them: none. They recite the Creed though they clearly don't believe it and are not a part of the Church it references.

I believe that was @DELLAPELLE JOHN. I once found him on facebook. About as insane as one might expect. And he liked trolling lil' Donte, which I appreciated.

But Christians are the backwards ones

Oh I'm just poking what seems to be a common sore spot with eye-talians.

The Nicene Creed is a better measuring stick by which to identify (little "o") orthodox Christians: We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen. We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, of one Being with the Father. Through him all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary, and was made man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son. With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified. He has spoken through the Prophets. We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.

Well based on Rob's theory above, you're pretty solidly an African too. Do you play basketball?

But it can be a hell of a thing to find out your mother is a dirty *****.

Is this a surprise to anyone? Yinzers are among some of the worst people I've ever had the misfortune of interacting with. Say what you want about people from Buffalo but we treat our women to harmless ass luges and consensual table slamming, not unsolicited throat grabs.

We all know what that means, party at Gugny's with special guest @Jimmy Spagnola!

Now in generic form!

How do you like the kel tec? I’ve been debating between that and the ruger 9mm carbine. I carry my 26 with the 12 round extended mag loaded in it, and a 17 round backup mag. Same idea with the 19, just carry with the standard 15 round mag in it. 33 round sticks are fun at the range for sure but i haven’t found a great way to carry them outside of a range bag haha I’m looking at building a 300 blackout pistol for a truck gun. I want to get a good locking mount for it for the trunk too.

It's literally just called "Pinochle." It's made by fishdog. Little banner ad at the bottom supports it. Super simple, clean. Only issue is your partner sucks, but it's a great time killer when you're stuck somewhere with ***** internet.
