I’m more of a sear it and bourbon it kind of guy and that is, in fact, what I did tonight.
Grilled steak and asparagus with a Freeland Bourbon.
Nice. Sirloin and Bulleit for me.
Does it count as having ribs if you have a microwaved Big AZ rib hoagie sandwich from the gas station mini-mart?
I’ll allow it. but only because I use to work for the company that made those. Or, well, the predecessor. I use to have to eat a bite of those once a week. I loved the whole line of Big Az Sandwiches. But I’m 12 going on 50.
Their jalapeño cheeseburgers are pretty good, too.
I’m always amazed at the breadth of experiences we have on this board.
They are higher quality than you might expect. But the buns are the secret. The facility that makes those sandwiches (Or use to it, was a long time ago) had both the bakery and the assembly line for making the sandwiches. And the bread is pretty amazing in that it tastes good out of the microwave. There’s some combination of the water, and the humidity in that location that we never could replicate at other bakeries. We use to joke there must have been an Indian burial ground or something.
Nothing quite like snagging a fresh piece of the bread rolling out of the oven on the way through the plant in the morning for breakfast.
You mean for “Quality Control”.
Exactly
“Good lord! According to the spectrolyzer, Spargle’s secret ingredient was… water! Ordinary water!”
“Ah, so the real gift Spargle gave you was confidence. The confidence to be your best.”
“Yes, ordinary water, laced with nothing more than a few spoonfuls of LSD.”

I had to do a double take on #1. She looks like someone I used to know from swing dancing.
Unfortunately, there are face diapers later in the gallery. Blech.

11, 29, 37.
#22 for the win. This old man likes DaniDashley because she looks like a hot neighbor that might invite you in for a coffee after you snow-bowed her driveway. I like the real girls.
Yummy.
I realize that I’m biased, but q-ette is objectively the best and anyone who disagrees is a hate filled bigot.
*listens to trashbaby #2 screaming in the background*
I’m tempted to agree with you. ?
“objectively” – I don’t think that means what you think it means.
It literally means what he said.
I’m literally dying over here.
Get back to me after you experience her as a teenager.
There you are! If you’re back home from snowbirding, you may be among those potentially interested in this Forum discussion re: a Miami Valley Glibs meet-up. (Remember the Forum requires a separate log-in, same credentials as for main site.)
I enjoys these guys videos, Swiss. Thanks for sharing!
Sound to me like it worked.
Two drunk friends were left with swollen penises after injecting each other with a piles cream they heard could give them extra girth
Sure am glad I don’t need to try any of those bogus tips.
There’s a cheaper way to do that.

DON’T OTHER THE SHESTICLES!
All hail the do it yourselfers.
Hello all. Shitty week here but the liquor is flowing now.
Sounds like your weekend is starting right.
“First drag queen certified as a candidate for United Methodist ministry ‘speaking in a new way to new people’
“Isaac Simmons is the first openly gay man to be certified within the Illinois Great Rivers Conference and, as far as anyone can tell, the first drag queen certified in the United Methodist Church.”
His drag-queen name is Penny Cost. Really!
https://religionnews.com/2021/04/15/first-drag-queen-certified-as-a-candidate-for-united-methodist-ministry-speaking-in-a-new-way-to-new-people/
Praise She-sus.
The Methodists are definitely keeping it biblical these days.
Im off to work, kids. Don’t burn the place down.
/Stands, salutes Zoom call.
golf Road Trip! we are headed North after Lunch at North Channel brewery, and i get to try out my Tie Dye L3,

We should do a run of glibs discs. $500ish gets us 50 discs with a custom foil.
Innova Destroyers, White with an oil Black stamp, Sweet!
I’ll see if I can get together the scratch to do it next month. I’ll also ping SP and make sure TPTB are cool with us using the logo and selling them here for a bit over cost and donating the proceeds to the site.
Keep me in the loop, I’lll kick in to make sure they are real PDGA discs,
PDGA #169877
We can buy direct from Innova, $9.25/disc for star plastic, $80 fee for custom foil, minimum order of 50. I’m thinking that your idea of white Star Destroyers with a black foil would look good.
Yes! it fits, and they might sell, send me buy in details when you are ready,
I drive a Halo Star Destroyer, when I get it out, the Boys go , Ah fuck, here he goes, and I go, Far…
Trashy, I’m 40000th best, 805 rating, Ha Ha!

How convenient that the latest shooting incident involves a failure of red flag type action. Guess that’s another loophole that needs to be tightened.
This is the one they’ve been waiting for; white male, red flag failure, AR-15. It checks all the boxes.
You asked for miracles. I give you the F.B.I.
More like Dewey, who, let’s be honest, was all red flags.
That must be what Q meant because right on both counts

How the fuck are we suddenly getting one of these every few days? Did they all base their decision on who’s in the white house? Is TMITE just hunting these down and pushing them? Fucking perplexing. It’s as if these whack jobs are on the dem’s payroll or something.
They’re assets being activated.
Not a link to this classic?
I don’t like that they gave him a MAGA cap
Well, MAGA Prime is a Russian asset.
“Is TMITE just hunting these down and pushing them?”
Bingo.
It’s because everyone’s mental health is all fucked up after a year-long house arrest. And, because effective psychological treatment is no longer generally available since the advent of ‘talk therapy’.
What constitutes effective psychological treatment?
Powerful pharmaceuticals?
For me, motorsports and living near Idaho. The last six months I’ve been going snowmobiling almost every weekend in Idaho. There I could shop in a store and walk into a bar/restaurant sans mask.
Hilarious to watch people fall over themselves defend the senile imbecile’s use of “Japanese boy” for a 29 year old man.
‘He didn’t mean anything by it. He’s an old man!’
Yeah right. This is the same guy who called Obama clean and articulate. But he gets a pass because team uber alles.
Then there’s the fact that the president of the US lacks the manners to address a foreign dignitary properly but instead uses a diminutive of his given name. Grow the fuck up, man.
TMITE
100%. I don’t think he’s malicious. But he is incompetent. He should be called out for it.
It’s always worthwhile to point out an inconsistency between someone’s actions and the standard that they impose on everyone else, even if the action in question is trivial.
With all the cries of ‘Das Rayciss’ with regards to media, I am loathe to throw out such an accusation. But, I’ve been reading old public domain pulp magazines, and just went through a story in a detective rag from 1931 which contain a story that was positively vaudevillian in its depictions. I don’t think the people throwing around the accusation these days have got any perspective.
And to top it all off, the mystery wasn’t even that good.
I don’t think many people dispute the fact that America was a much more racist country back then.
My beef is with the lying media and lying politicians who pretend that nothing has changed since then.
I had a bit of a thought.
In the current state, there’s no one who would regard the story as fit for publication. But if I took and made some judicious edits to give it a race lift and make the cast a bunch of rednecks and the stolen patent medicines fish tank cleaner, I’d wager a not-insignificant number of people would have no problems whatsoever.
Malice often makes the point (with reference to the original source, whom I can’t remember) that the modern opprobrium suffered by white trash Americans, with the hick accent and the implied ignorance and cousin-fucking and so forth, is pretty much identical to how old-school racists impugned blacks. The races changed, the tropes didn’t.
And VDH.
VDH?
He’s a venereal disease hero? With a burning desire to help?
That or Victor Davis Hanson. Possibly both.
Listen, I took the pills and my VDH cleared up fine.
Honestly, if you put a gun to my head and asked me to pick out VDH from Scott Adams in a lineup… I’d probably wet myself, you have a gun to my head
Also, VDH sounds like John Malkovich, except I’m sure Malkovich isn’t based.
That’s Daria, right?
Barely before my time
Chafed, got it in one.
Half Daria, half her best friend Jane. 3 unvetted minutes of S1E1 clips: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=D2sp0UOEmok
PS. Just realized Dar has a monocle: how apt.
Sorry, I hate to be a pain, but I had it all along. And I’m willing to give it to anyone who asks,
It’s a psychological warfare tactic; the end result of watering down terms like “racist” (and xenophobic, homophobic, misogynistic, etc.) so that they’re essentially meaningless and anything can be labeled as such. The terms still carry emotional impact but have been totally divorced from reality. It’s a way of gaslighting and manipulating people’s responses.
I’m thinking (hoping) the opposite is true… there’s not central authority over these thing, they’re squabbling pigs in shit, and all these ists and isms are the only purchases they have on power. And they’re wearing out their welcome, even among one another. They’re the only assholes being gaslighted.
I’ve noticed that the overuse has dulled the emotional impact of the accusation.
“Yeah, sure, whatever” being more and more common a reaction.
Some people mine history for examples of white racism to prove that whites are tainted by original sin and must be re-educated.
Others check history, including the history of other countries with racial diversity, and think the improvement in white public opinion since 1931 is pretty good for government work. The reason the racism of the past is shocking is that it’s less frequent nowadays.
Think of the Orcs after the overthrow of Morgoth and, later, the destruction of the Ring. (Morgoth being African slavery and Sauron being Jim Crow and associated evils). Without Morgoth and Sauron the Orcs (white supremacism) have no organizing power and they’re scattered and *lots* less powerful.
But to get away from that particular metaphor, other racist monsters will come up, not always white racists (though they still exist) – the puke-inducing woke ideology has racist components essential to its existence, but it’s called “reverse racism” or something euphemistic.
Cheers! Liquor!
Cheers!!
Hey-yoooo!!!
Been day drinking.
Been day drinking
Once, before 5
I enjoy drinking
It’s just as simple as that
Well, it’s just a simple fact
We had a few at the office last night after work. The CEO drinks Chu-hai but I can’t stand them – they really screw up my gut the next day. She also bought a bunch of low carb beer – bleah, so I went out and bought some proper beer.
When you want to drink
and the sun hasn’t set quite yet
Night drinking here but hard.

Picked up a dry aged ribeye (45 day) from the butcher tonight. For Sunday dinner.
Cook that mofo up good.
I just took a half brisket out of the freezer to defrost so I can smoke it tomorrow. Also will be grilling an angus ribeye and a tenderloin. Burgers for the kids.
Well, speaking of racism, it seems Ted Cruz is against saving Asians from Hate.
“Ted Cruz among a small number of Republicans opposing bill to address hate crimes against Asian Americans
“The junior senator was among only six Republicans who opposed advancing a bill that would expedite the processing of hate crimes against Asian Americans by the Justice Department….
“The COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act was introduced in March by U.S. Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, and U.S. Rep. Grace Meng, D-New York. It aims to expedite the process of reviewing “COVID-19 hate crimes” by designating a specific employee in the U.S. Justice Department for that task.”
Ted Cruz babbled something about corrupt Democrats and their lying messaging tactics, and something about a lawsuit against Yale. I wasn’t paying attention because of his hatey-hatingness and Republicans like him causing attacks on Asians by saying the coronavirus comes from China.
https://www.texastribune.org/2021/04/16/ted-cruz-asian-americans-hate-crimes/
These thoughtcrime laws are unconscionable.
And I doubt the authority of the feds to even create general police laws. That is a power of the states.
If the Republicans had any balls they’d offer an amendment requiring the IRS to give a report on anti-Asian discrimination by 501(c)(3) organizations, including universities.
*watches ship sailing far off into the distance*
OFFS. Can they throw any more buzzwords into it?
According to pundits, the purpose of this silly and pointless law was to goad Republicans into filibustering it thereby giving them an excuse to end the filibuster without it tying it to one of their blatant power grabs.
Only six? The Republicans are bought and paid for pussies.
Ontario, Canada is now officially a police state?
https://mobile.twitter.com/CanAditude/status/1383163526710185985
JFC. Let’s see if they get swept out in the next election or reelected. I increasingly believe Canadians are, for the most part, spineless.
That’s just fucking disgusting.
Even if you support the COVID restrictions 110%, you should be able to acknowledge that these power grabs are setting a dreadful precedent for the future and that there needs to be a serious debate about what exactly is keeping our governments in check (spoiler: nothing)
The same people who lambasted the PATRIOT Act are now cheering on all of this shit. They’ve been convinced that “Reopen” protesters are more dangerous than the military-industrial-intelligence complex.
If only. They’re convinced it’s only for the good and nothing bad can come of it. And covid is an existential threat so anything goes.
They’ll also be completely shocked when they’re up against the wall as well. “But the test is wrong!” “There must be a mistake!” “If only Comrade Kamala knew!”
Yea, they seem to love existential threats, don’t they?
“Climate change” comes to mind. In 2016, I tried to persuade countless people that Hillary is THE most corrupt, plutocratic, hypocritical, warmongering politician in the country. Most of the time, they reluctantly acknowledged how horrible she is on all these things, but they’d fire back with “But none of that matters if climate change destroys the planet, so I’m going to have to vote for her. Even if she makes some bad policies, we can move back on those later. We on the precipice of irreversibly damaging the planet, though.”
It was a fucking chore to try and tell them:
– Most climate scientists are not predicting any kind of existential threat to humans. The ones who do predict that get the lion’s share of publicity though.
– It’s not a simple matter to just “move back” when civil liberties have been taken away. There’s not much incentive for politicians to give them back since even a few deaths that could tangentially be connected to that would be blamed on them. It’s safer to just leave it be until everyone forgets about it.
Got way off topic there, but yea, COVID provides them the logical “out” to any argument about civil liberties.
Not that far off topic. It’s the same authoritarianism throughout, and the judgement of the chosen elite should rule over individual voluntary choice.
My kid is totally obsesses with Rainbow’s Stargazer. He is approximating the sound on his guitar without playing any of the chords. Or any actual chords for that matter. Yet, it still has the unmistakable sound of the song. I really need to get him in some lessons.
My son is obsessed with Rainbow Six, and wondering why these bitch ass Ubisoft shitheads aren’t developing a proper tactical squad shooter in the vein of Rogue Spear or Ghost Recon, instead focusing on multiplayer trash…
One word – Microtransactions
You can churn more in multiplayer trash than in any other game format.
We need to do away with capitalism… so we can properly portray the capitalist 1990s glory.
I should have realized that Las Vegas was the end of what I wanted, not an anomaly.
With creative content, if you really want something, put in the effort to be able to create it yourself.
Indie devs still pop up and fill the market niches all the time.
What I’m saying is, your son should learn to code.
There is no son. There’s only disappointment… which you can’t spell without son.
Can’t also spell learn to code without son.
Also, put in the effort to be able to create it yourself you can also almost spell with son.
But with creative content, even the last you can spell with son.
I hope you sing along. I don’t think I could stop myself.
Hopefully this guy has a lot of money she can take in the divorce.

It’s The Sun so I’m not sure how accurate any of that is. And who knows what she was like before he went rogue.
Maybe she should put out.
The poor guy is addicted to escorts. There is no way he can just go cold turkey. He has to slowly be weaned off them.
He should get the patch.
So I guess an escort ranks below a courtesan, but above a regular hooker.
So from most to least respectable it’s courtesan, escort, fille de joie, hooker, guy who gives hand-jobs in parking lots, journalist.
You forgot to put crack whore in there just above journalist.
Rules For Thee But Not For Me
Yeah, but the left doesn’t have any shame so it’s not like her followers care. Oh, you might peel one or two off but in the grand scheme of things it sadly doesn’t accomplish anything to point out their hypocrisy.
Please pardon my oldness, but can someone please re-post the friday Zoom link??
Try https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81197592540?pwd=ZTJlS2tYODM1TFBpbmo4czlJWlJDZz09
I’m guessing the host is asleep at the wheel. *Knock, Knock*
Anybody still there?
Looking around to find a new show to watch and stumbled upon Mythic Quest. Not bad. Like a toned down Silicon Valley.
Don’t riot, he was white! White I tells ya!!
https://archive.is/FjYL3
Scroll down slightly for the money shot (cops shot a guy), not Babylon Bee.
OFFS.
But it’s Portland so there will be a riot anyway.
My asshole is spitting ?.
One of my worst days on this earth was 12 hours after drinking a 12 pack of beer and eating a full bottle of Pace hot picante sauce so I can relate. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger though.
Avatar checks out.
I’m being flirted with by a young tomato at work and my inner asshole is doing cartwheels. This ends now.
Jeez, that Ontario expansion of police powers from further up in the thread is something else. Talk about overstepping what ought to be their bounds.
Ford is a “Conservative”. What’s become of my Country? This is nut-bags crazy. We’re next.
Ford’s a shitbag and any cops that enforce this are shitbags too. I’d say y’all are in trouble but we aren’t far behind I’m afraid.
Justin wanted Chinese vaccines. That never panned out so we are currently at about 20% of the vaccination rate as compared to America. Lockdowns in place and looming. Company is lighting its hair on fire.
I guess buying Sputnik is out for political reasons? The Russians are pumping that stuff out like gangbusters.
Amazing how draconian they go so quickly. You would think this was weaponized Ebola – something with a death rate of over 30% of infected people.
If it was anywhere nearly as dangerous as these measures should imply people would be doing this voluntarily. Heck, it would be immoral to ask police to interact with people ignoring the guidelines.
It’s batshit crazy and is a declaration of war on the people regardless of the motivation.
True. But the bigger problem is how many people are joining the enemy and making their job of ruling us all like sheep so much easier.
We’re cut from a different branch, up here. The only maskers you see outside are the young and the very old. Mid-lifers like me wear it for get along to go along purposes. Why make trouble for that kid that you’ve been buying beer from for two years. It’s cowardly but I’m not willing to die on that hill.
Good to see that some jurisdictions are refusing to follow along. Ontario has their own Provincial Police. We are strictly Mounties aside from a few larger centers like Vancouver and Victoria. They will come for us in the end. Judi was shopping today and she said it was like Xmas. We’re in the middle of of an April heat wave and everybody is headed out camping even though ice-off is probably still a couple of weeks away. I don’t blame them. Weenie roast at the lakeside is fun.
