  1. Wouldn’t surprise me. Atlanta (well Georgia really) has been faulted for being too conservative and not in line with Amazons values. Well.....we shall see.
  2. Saw this on vice tonight. Why address the real issue (mental health and drug abuse) when clearly putting everyone in a house is the real answer. As as a side note I love the hipster attitude of “Amazon is driving up housing costs!” Amazon hasn’t even made a selection on HQ2 and people in Atlanta are already freaking out. The beauty of it all is that these are the same douchebags that had no problem displacing poorer folks who occupied their trendy neighborhoods prior to them, but as soon as a bigger fish shows up in the pond the wailing begins.
  3. Ehhhh...shaking down corporations for cash is a rite of passage for political folk. Beer League at best. disclaimer: Haven't read any of the supporting evidence.
  4. The pinstripes are very slimming. I might steal that look. So I have a new phone and haven't adjusted my feed setting yet, so the default news feed (I believe) is Yahoo. I know I shouldn't expect much, but then again maybe I should. Dozens of stories on what each empty head wore to the Met Gala focused on Catholic appropriation . One story on North Korea. I don't know if it was referenced in this thread or another, but bring on the Brawndo and start kicking people in the balls.
  5. I was way off. The "silent Y" always gets me. Just like that damn backward Russian "K"
  6. I read the whole thing and the thing I really want to know is.... How do you pronounce HAKLUYT?
  7. And people mess up the wall paint with repeated brushing of their hands. This might be the one thing on the planet that I'm OCD about. That...and lights, people who leave lights on. Oh yeah....and door/gate locks. and.....
  8. Well, if we believe that she’s a role model for idiots. Don’t let your shortcomings hold you back folks. Competency not required.
  9. I love the role playing excuse. ”I don’t condone this type of behavior but despite that I secretly get off on it, I don’t really mean it....so it’s OK” ”well....our bad. Continue about your day.”
  10. Two things popped into my head when I saw this: “I said that Hollywood can fall into the ocean, man 'cause it's the ugliest place in the whole wide world,” the f’n theme was something around Catholic Imagination. “It appears my hypocrisy knows no bounds”
  11. They’re eventually going to get him for lying about the size of his hands. Make him try on a glove....OJ style.
  12. “My culture is not your GD prom dress”...... thanks “JEREMY”
  13. “Do you think Shaq got rich playing in Orlando?” ”No, he got rich playing in college. Everyone knows that.”
  14. It seems overbearing but you’d be amazed at the stuff you can ban bring back unknowingly. I have horses and occasionally go riding in other countries. I buy boots and pants that I throw out there when I’m done. It’s probably being over cautious but you’d be amazed the resilience of what sits in/on soil.
  15. Let me get this straight. They took his guns because of previous “issues.”....gave them to his Dad...who’s obviously done a bang up job of raising this community pillar....and he gives them back to him!!!!? I’m trying to figure out who gets awarded the Stupid Medal for this one.
  16. That occurred to me....but I expect it could get creepy really fast.
  17. And people think Amazon's primary business is being an online marketplace.
  18. This. I’m going through the process of sponsoring an employee or an H1B. Holy $&@?! Also learning how this particular visa is abused by Indian consulting firms is somewhat eye opening as well. I digress...having dealt with the immigration folks in our govt, these people are either the most overworked people in the country or possibly the most inefficient. My past experience with governmental services has me leaning one way. Quick edit: I think we should accommodate people from all walks of life who want to work hard and build a better life, but I don’t understand why someone would come here and not make an attempt to somewhat assimilate. It doesn’t mean giving up your culture, but they left for a reason.
  19. Damn right he stole the erection. We have multiple threads devoted to it.
  20. Have you gone camping lately. Or tried to cut down a few trees on your property...or build an addition without paying the environmental impact blackmail(your mileage may vary depending on where you live)
  21. Actually that is the point. Regulators have yet to show any sort of restraint when it comes to any sort of legislation when it comes to personal freedoms (see: California.) as a result the gun lobby has decided to not give on anything, wary that an inch provides a crack in the armor for future momentum on restrictions. This creates an environment devoid of logic or rational solutions.
  22. If this was truly about saving lives, they’d be marching for mandatory defensive driving courses. Also the quality of signage flies in the face of an “organic” march.
