  1. I'm not good at internetting
  2. Trapped in the Drive Thru-Weird Al https://youtu.be/SHnTocdD7sk
  3. Every team in the AAFC that didn't have a competing franchise in the same city was merged into the NFL... except Buffalo. And this was in spite of Buffalo being a fairly strong market at the time.
  4. Nobody in the area seems to realize that Rochester was home to one of the charter franchises of the NFL.
  5. Although one of ths most annoying things in the world is a recreational stoner touting the medical benefits of cannabis as though that's why they want it legalized, he isn't wrong.
  6. She's got a really pretty face, but she's built like the mascot of a major tire company. Why does it seem like it's always the English teacher?
  7. Some interesting ones I found on the footprint of out beloved RWS: loved.antiquated.glaring Ridiculed.formations.reforms Enormously.released.barbarian Purchasing.fine.water Tapes.padlock.lotion, which sounds like it should be in Gillette Stadium, is actually in the Ralph. My seats are at cleaned.flock.relished
  8. Had a hot dog with cole slaw and bacon on it once, and I'm not ashamed to admit that it was better than any sexual experience I've ever had. That said, I think mustard is the go-to and ketchup is a no fly zone. Something interesting I experienced several times abroad was honey on hot dogs. Not bad, just not my thing.
  9. Oh boy, speculation based on discredited speculation. September get here soon enough.
  10. I believe the amount he paid had something to do with capital gains taxes or something.
  11. A certain number of people just get swept up by the populist candidates. Trump is the cool new thing, just like O was eight years ago.
  12. Freedom lovers appreciate your vote.
  13. I agree with you, but with one adjustment; This is happening in ALL news media.
  14. A Libertarian certainly wouldn't have instituted a stiff tariff.
  15. How was Cortland Finnegan not higher on the list? We hardly ever played the Titans and I remember being really happy about Andre Johnson opened a can on his ass.
  16. "...a group of seven women heading out to see comedian Amy Schumer..." I hate to stereotype, but I feel like I didn't need to read much farther than that line.
  17. Whether he could win or not is irrelevant, because he could never get ballot access in enough states to collect 270.
  18. Had to dig this thread up for a little story. My brother called me today. He's one of the corporate workers Verizon sent out to scab during the strike. He had an old lady call into his call center today. She was paying $350 for a massive four line package, when she is the only one on the plan and uses ten minutes of calling and no data or SMS a month. She has paid about seven thousand dollars more than she should have over the length of her last contract. Some people are just real Cheneys.
  19. What expect is for him to poll as high as 15%, however, when the time comes to pull the lever, many will panic and vote for one of the two big names out of fear or feeling of duty. I feel like 5% is a very realistic expectation, especially this year. Also, he has only 35k in cash right now.
  20. All of the other candidates have their own threads, and It looks like things are starting to heat up for America's largest third party, so here we are. Buckle up your tin foil helmets and hold on to your bitcoins, this is gonna be a fun one. It is looking more and more like a sure thing that Gary Johnson once again will take the Libertarian Party nomination at the convention in Orlando next weekend, after accumulating 1.2 million votes in 2012. Yesterday he unofficially announced that former governor of Massachusetts, Bill Weld, will be his running mate. Weld has the connections to pull off some major fundraising, which is sorely needed by the LP and the Johnson campaign. In spite of the "R" next to his name, he was an electoral juggernaut in the deep blue state of Massachusetts. Some within the party are upset at the prospect of a Johnson/Weld ticket, claming that they are more political moderates than true Libertarians, especially following the "Nazi Cake" fiasco at the FBN debate, but many are willing to look past that in the name of opportunism. With the choices of the major parties, and many left looking for a "sensible alternative," it would be wise for them to look more like moderates than hardline pseudo-anarchists. https://www.boston.com/news/politics/2016/05/18/former-massachusetts-gov-bill-weld-reportedly-confirmed-libertarian-candidate-gary-johnsons-vp In fact, if recent polling is to be believed, the moderate card may just be grabbing people's attention. (quoted from another thread) Big news, because reaching 15% in the polls would mean an automatic invitation onto the circus debate stage with Hillary and Trump. Recently, an official in the Debate commission expressed that pollsters should be including the LP candidate, since the nominee will have ballot access in all 50 states. I don't care if this thread is just me sitting here talking to myself. It gets lonely in this dark basement, and I need something to do while my bitcoin machine runs. Bonus material: here's a video of a tweenaged boy talking about the Johnson campaign: http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow/watch/gary-johnson-aims-to-offer-voters-a-plan-c-689358915619
  21. From that same Fox News poll, Johnson is at 10%. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/05/18/fox-news-poll-trump-tops-clinton-both-seen-as-deeply-flawed-candidates.html And from Rasmussen's poll: http://m.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/elections/election_2016/white_house_watch "But Rasmussen Reports latest national telephone survey finds that 13% prefer some other candidate..."
  22. No, there are truly poor people in this country, it's just that there are far, far fewer than some want you to believe.
  23. So the Pentagon basically got three quarters of a million worth of free recruiting/advertisement.
  24. Looks like a good place to post this. http://www.communitybeerworks.com/2016/05/beer-buyback-saturday/
  25. Probably ran off to Pangu Island and is enjoying the life of a pirate king.
