Or whatever else you’re having.

Would, but wtf?

 

Did drugs fall out of my butt?

 

0 fucks given, but that’s funny, right there.

 

Tuneage.

  1. Yusef drives a Kia

    Great song, underrated Band,
    First!

    • Yusef drives a Kia

      Robbie Blunt FTW!

    • Yusef drives a Kia

      I never get the GiF anymore, sad Yusef is sad………….

    • DEG

      I’ll second that.

      • Rhywun

        3rd’ed

        Good vibes from that one

      • Gustave Lytton

        And forth it. It’s a happy song for me.

    • The Bearded Hobbit

      Meh. I remember when it came out and my thought was, “wimp rock”.

      YMMV

    • Fourscore

      Meagan would be welcome in my trailer park, IYKWIM

    • The Hyperbole

      I would think five clicks up from trailer trash would be a compliment. How many clicks up do these people think there are?

      • LJW

        5 clicks up is that like marry your 5th cousin white trash? I think you’re safe from having mutant children at that point

      • leon

        So kind of like FDR and Eleanore?

      • Bobarian LMD

        To be fair, there’s probably a lot of inbreeding involved in the family she just married into.

      • leon

        Five seems like an excessive amount of clicks.

    • The Bearded Hobbit

      Four, I’m bid four. Do I hear three?

  2. juris imprudent

    Ima guess the Italian quarantine also precludes refugees entering the country.

  3. juris imprudent

    The WSJ isn’t what it used to be. Or was there a real business angle to that?

  4. Tundra

    Would, but wtf?

    I’m really into my brain, I’m really into my liver, really into my endocrine system. I love taking care of my lymphatic system. Then I started to notice changes creeping in after I hit 35. And I really started to regard the skin as an organ. It’s OK to take care of yourself and love that organ as well. And that doesn’t mean you are any less smart and it doesn’t mean you’re afraid of aging, it just means you’re taking care of the whole system. So once I got into that, I’ve had a lot of fun.

    Yeah, no.

    • hayeksplosives

      All I know for certain is that the quality of Life depends on the Liver.

      • Tundra

        Kidneys want some love, too, but yeah.

      • Crusty Juggler

        That’s why you must beat it sometimes, much like how life beats you.

    • Contrarian P

      That’s some grade A gibberish right there. “I love taking care of my lymphatic system”. Yeah, ok.

      Yes, there are healthy behaviors and diet and exercise are important. Are you going to live forever or not get old because you’re busy loving your organ? Nope.

      • Francisco d'Anconia

        busy loving your organ

  5. hayeksplosives

    That lady is 100% right about Markle.

    • Tundra

      She’s too generous.

      • The Hyperbole

        Okay I’ll bite, I don’t follow celebrity stuff so I gotta ask, what’s the worst thing Meghan Markle has done? beside the odd spelling of her name which I assume is her parents fault anyway.

      • Crusty Juggler

        Infected The Crown with her dirty, Brown, American blood?

      • juris imprudent

        She’s no Wallis Simpson.

      • C. Anacreon

        Nice reference, surprised that hasn’t come up more often related to Markle, and how similar she is to Wallis in several ways (divorcee, for example)

      • mrfamous

        Before she got involved with Royalty, when she was on that silly lawyer show, I thought she was stupid hot. YMMV.

      • The Hyperbole

        That’s a bad thing?

      • Toxteth O’Grady

        Stole Harry and their baby away from their country, insulted the Queen and wasted her money, threw tantrums… I’m sure there’s more.

      • The Last American Hero

        She knew damn well what was involved if you married into the family, but apparently she wanted the money, fame, and celebrity, without the obligations and burdens that come with it.

        And she was mean to the Queen. While I could give 2 fucks, it’s sort of like flipping off the entire country who gave her a title, fame, celebrity and money.

    • Florida Man

      How many clicks are there in this system? I need to know where 5 puts her and how many clicks I’ve got. Are there any clicks below trailer trash?

      • Q Continuum

        “Are there any clicks below trailer trash?”

        Glibertarians.

      • Florida Man

        *high five*

        Oh, wait…

      • Sean

        Q, off the top rope!

      • Bobarian LMD

        Just how many clicks is that?

      • DrOtto

        And prison.

      • Sean

        Sure. At least trailer trash has a home.

        Street junkies are a some clicks down from there.

      • Fourscore

        Clicks go up to 11

      • Rhywun

        Are there any clicks below trailer trash?

        Politician?

      • Francisco d'Anconia

        That’s at least five clicks below. Maybe 10

      • juris imprudent

        Markle system or Milgram?

      • Rhywun

        Sometimes I doubt your conviction to Markle Motion!

      • juris imprudent

        I’m sure if you crank the dial up a little I’ll do better.

      • Gustave Lytton

        Makes me think of adjusting wind age and elevation.

  6. Q Continuum

    RE: Sex dust lunatic.

    Agree that would, but only if I could ball gag her. She sounds so self-absorbed, tedious and annoying that I don’t think I could stand to listen to her for more than 20 seconds.

  7. Crusty Juggler

    “Would, but wtf?”

    Keri Russell much?

  8. SUPREME OVERLORD trshmnstr

    OT: amid all the chaos of getting ready to fix up and offload the current trash can and finding a new trash can in the lonestar state, the mrs started getting an extra line showing up on the mandatory weekly pregnancy tests I force her to take as a condition of letting her leave the house on occasion.

    It’s still very early, but assuming all goes well trashprogeny #2 will be here sometime in November.

    • Florida Man

    Trump Admin Infighting Over Open Skies Treaty Infuriates GOP Hawks

    Senior Trump administration officials are working behind the scenes to thwart President Donald Trump’s attempt to pull out of a treaty that allows Russia to conduct surveillance operations in the United States, according to executive and congressional officials.

    The deep state strikes again.

    • hayeksplosives

      Wait—they (Americans) are upset because the Donald wants to BLOCK Russian spying.

      I fail to see the problem.

      • Lord Digby's Spirit Animal

        Hey; if it’s an ‘agreement’, it’s totes legit.

        “Can’t catch me–I had an agreement!”

      • Florida Man

        I’ve never seen vanishing point. Worth the time?

      • Count Potato

        Yes, but it is kind of slow by today’s standards.

      • Florida Man

        I don’t mind slow films if they are taking time to develop characters.

      • Tundra

        I absolutely love it.

        Cleavon Little was awesome.

        Please watch it it and give us your youngster review.

      • Florida Man

        Cleaving Little? ALL IN!

      • dontreadonme

        And Charlotte Rampling. Yum.

      • Bobarian LMD

        So you’ve seen the movie?

      • juris imprudent

        Double feature with Billy Jack.

        “I am going to take my right foot, and wap it right up on the right side of your face, and you know what? There is not a damn thing you can do about it.”

      • Francisco d'Anconia

        Yes. And the remake with Viggo wasn’t bad either.

      • DrOtto

        Avoid the Jason Priestly remake.

      • dontreadonme

        It is very quirky, but with the appropriate buzz you will enjoy spectacularly.

    • DEG

      That is fucking ugly.

      • C. Anacreon

        They should have called it the Nagurski.

    • Stinky Wizzleteats

      I like it, it reminds me of an older model Toyota Land Cruiser more than an older model Bronco though.

    • Timeloose

      I dig it. It has elements from the original 60’s and early 70’s broncos. I would rather the 2 door with the 7speed manual and 2.7l twin turbo version.

      • Tejicano

        My step-brother used to have a similar vintage Bronco – but 100% stock. He let me use it once for about a week when I was back home. That was the last chance I’ve had to drive a stick and really love manual transmissions.

        But one memory that sticks with me about that vehicle was some dude who was insistent about talking to me about selling it to him. He set off multiple “felon” and “grifter” alarms in my head. I barely maintained my cool enough to not start waving an HK USP in his face and coldly telling him where to get off.

      • R C Dean

        Meh. Bland and too much like every other “SUV”.

    • The Last American Hero

      Most cars handle pretty well at 15 mph.

      #1: I was reminiscing about this time I was in a now-long gone Goth club in the Boston area. No one in there looked this woman.

      #2: Very unflattering bottoms and horrible tattoo.

      #3: Looks like a bustier version of someone I know. And I need to get my mind off of, and #4 to the rescue!

      #33: Beth Lily.

      #34 is not whom I thought was, but thanks to Google image search you can find more of #34 here.

      #52: That glass is bigger than any I received in a Kölner bar.

    “Beer is the answer”

    Yes. Though it was probably smarter to abstain today.

    Originally a pressed-juice bar with adaptogenic dusts (supplements made from herbs and mushrooms)

    WTF?

    Who wouldn’t love it if red wine started flowing from their kitchen sink?

    As long as I have a faucet where I can get water, having red wine flow from the kitchen sink is OK by me.

    • Florida Man

      Water? Glib-card REVOKED!

    • Sean

      A box of wine is a suitable substitute.

    • Florida Man

      If you wash your hands too much you can cause cracking leading to another entry vector.

      • Sean

        Wait, does that apply to my penis too?

      • Florida Man

        If you’re washing your penis more than once a week, you’re doing it wrong.

      • Tres Cool

        “Its mine and Ill wash it as fast as I want!”

      • Sean

        ⬆⬆

      • Bobarian LMD

        If you’re continuously washing it, it only counts as one time, right?

      • Gustave Lytton

        I’m fucked. My hands already get dried out in the winter.

    • DEG

      • Fourscore

        No gouging here, no product available to gouge

    “This interview has been edited and condensed for clarity.”

    Oh good, otherwise it would have read like pretentious gibberish.

    • Count Potato

      “Our enzyme-rich, activated, and dehydrated California almonds are an alkaline, mineral-dense protein. Pure, alkaline water awakens the nuts’ dormant properties, increasing digestibility and micronutrient, vitamin, and enzyme count.”

      That really activates the almonds.

    Ill see you “In The Mood” and raise you a Big Log.

    (good thing none of that is secretly ghey. /looks at Judas Priest)

    • Tejicano

      “Big Log” is one of my favorite road trip songs. Not just because the video and theme of the song seems to be about a road trip but the mood of it all just feels that way.
      I’m looking forward to a long road trip in the US west in about a month. Much coolness.

        What part of National Crisis don’t you understand?

      • straffinrun

        Always err on the side of more govt control.

      • RAHeinlein

        The article was certainly correct regarding the CDC sitting back – incompetent fucks.

      • straffinrun

        What government has handled this well?

      • leon

        I heard North Korea was executing people who had it.

      • Gustave Lytton

        Maybe Singapore?

      • straffinrun

        Tried and true method.

      • Gustave Lytton

        And Taiwan perhaps.

      • Gustave Lytton

        South Korea also.

      • Jarflax

        Government can do one thing in a disease situation. Quarantine. Quarantine relly only works if imposed brutally and very early on. But, you cannot justify the required brutality unless the disease is killing a lot of people, which with a real pandemic means it is already too late to be effective, so quarantines only work with horribly deadly, but not particularly contagious diseases.

      • straffinrun

        “Well” is an ill defined term. Singapore and Taiwan seem to be doing better because the people aren’t spitting on the street. But, to be honest, I don’t really know what those governments are doing.

      • RAHeinlein

        I don’t have a response – it’s unclear what other governments are doing. CDC has screwed the pooch – bad test kits, extreme delay for accurate kits, poor guidance, websites updates, etc.

        My son’s college sent emails last week (Spring break) urging students to check the CDC website for updates, particularly related to travel. I had several email communications with the Dean of Students asking whether he had looked at the CDC website, and ultimately provided links with better information.

      • Gustave Lytton

        Singapore was aggressive in contact tracing when it first started, and following up with to contacts for a period after. They’ve also been very transparent about what’s going on with the cases

        https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/7e30edc490a5441a874f9efe67bd8b89

        They requested businesses track their employees’ travel as well as logging visitors to assist in contact tracing when there’s been a case. A lot of things that wouldn’t go over here but typical Singapore. I know our companies’ offices there were very quick to start isolating from the other and encourage work from home. I’ve heard part of it is from the SARS experience the first time around.

      • straffinrun

        Just remember, that while some of they top players have changed, these are mostly the same people that gave us the Iraq war, Obamacare and NPR. Being disappointed at govt incompetence isn’t in my arsenal.

      Does anyone remember this kind of panic about the Swine Flu in 2009? That eventually killed more than 12,000 Americans.

      • Lord Digby's Spirit Animal

        Eh, the flu is just something that happens these days, and, putting a nice piggy on it makes it even less bad. Besides, it’s usually only the old-timers and AIDS folk that really have to really worry.

        It’s weird because it does put to me to sleep now but back then it did not.

    Re: the article Drake linked during the noon post about the Missouri morons who broke quarantine for a father-daughter dance, Mr. GT confirmed my recollection that Ladue is the big moneybags ‘burb of St. Louis, so my guess is they assumed quarantines didn’t apply to Their Sort of People.

      See North Korea above.

      • Lord Digby's Spirit Animal

        So……a cure, then?

      • Gustave Lytton

        Yes

      • Lord Digby's Spirit Animal

        I didn’t see one gun in that video.

        For shame!

      • Lord Digby's Spirit Animal

        That is fantastic research. I approve.

      “Has anyone reputable looked into the use of lead for dealing with COVID-19?”

      Who are among those that you consider reputable, LDSA?

      • Lord Digby's Spirit Animal

        Just off the top of my head, any medical researcher/clinician/doctor not affiliated with a political entity. If they exist.

        Also, maybe Jerry Miculek.

      • Charles Easterly

        Thank you for responding and I will look into the matter (although I am not one who has greater access than you do).

    • Chafed

      That article would have been even better without the copsucking.

      • Lord Digby's Spirit Animal

        That article would have been even better without the copsucking.

        There ya go.

      • Chafed

        Thanks for the assist. In fairness, if the cops didn’t come the homeowner would have had to bury the body which is unfair to him.

      • Lord Digby's Spirit Animal

        He didn’t shoot the guy in the arms, so, in theory, Mr. Burglar-Wannabe could still dig. Would take an extra-long time, but, fair’s fair.

      • Lord Digby's Spirit Animal

        And, we joke (the copsucking was unnecessary), but, if we are talking about an attempted burglary, I would put that squarely in the ‘legitimate’ category for cops.

        Of course, robust self-defense FTW!!

    • hayeksplosives

      Is it just me, or are the majority of these things hoaxes?

      • Lord Digby's Spirit Animal

        Most do seem to be. Miss Meth was, apparently, caught on camera doing it. I can only guess that she was ‘paid’ to do it.

      • Lord Digby's Spirit Animal

        Not a meth-head; lines are too clean.

      • Charles Easterly

        Q?

      • Charles Easterly

        Without clicking on the links, it seems to me that your response gives strong evidence that it is indeed you, the “Q” (or “QC”) who seems fond to posting such links.

        Even if you do take offense from me at this posting, might you consider providing more links to “(L) libertarian” leaning thoughts for individuals who are not familiar with such thoughts?

        I understand (and have read here on this website) that many individuals find commonality with you regarding what you have and will probably offer in the future. Might I recommend including other links?

        This may be an awkward combination for you (as clearly it would be for many others): Juxtaposing principles with pictures.

        I look forward to your success in this regard.

        Not your best work, Q. That third one seems to have some kind of infection down there and the first one is just unattractive. #2 looka like a man.

  19. Mojeaux

    Just so you know, my Kung-Flu-in-St-Louis source was dead on.

    @Trashy, congrats on the wee muppet.

    @pistoffnick, you gave me my first laugh of the day. Why yes, it IS 11:10 p.m. God’s chosen time.

    A couple of things about Meghan Markle: (1) She comes off as trailer trash because she comes off as a gold-digger. She must have a magic coochie or something. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again—8 years total, then it’s divorce court. I do not for one second believe she loves that kid. (2) You know going into that family it’s a job and you’re being vetted for the position. If she didn’t want to do it, she could’ve been the mistress like every other respectable royal has ever had.

    Re Plant. “Ship of Fools” better song, but I’m not linking it because my brain hurts.

    @HM, I am still waiting to see your manager.

    • Rhywun

      Obligatory.

      I’ve paid zero attention to the Markle kerfuffle but the one thing I’ve noted is that she obviously carries Harry’s balls around in her purse. That hit home to me when he suddenly started parroting her Hollywood political causes.

      • Chafed

        Bingo. Give this man a cigar.

    • Tres Cool

      Nah…Harry knocked her up, and she knew she had the ticket.

      Her cooch is prolly sub-par

      • Lord Digby's Spirit Animal

        Harlem Nights, anyone?

    • straffinrun

      Instead of incest and creating retarded children, Harry went and married one. Step up for the royals.

    Should I Pause My Open Marriage Because of the Coronavirus?

    My husband and I have an open marriage. My mother is immunocompromised. Is it unreasonable to ask my husband not to swap fluids with his girlfriend until the coronavirus blows over?

    • Gustave Lytton

      Yes, and I still think the reveal is that the mother is the husband’s girlfriend.

    • Charles Easterly

      J.FP,

      I read a portion of article to which you provided a link .

      What are your (or other individual’s) thoughts regarding such matters?

      • Mojeaux

        Cooties. Lots and lots of cooties.

      • Chafed

        These people should learn about con oms.

    • Charles Easterly

      J.FP,

    Nite kids…..this DST has me fucked-up
    Handily, Im fucked-up

    • Chafed

      You and me both.

    • Gustave Lytton

      Gotta remember to take the sunglasses off before looking at a picture of Biden.

    • Rhywun

      Her pronouns are “she/her”. What a crashing bore.

      • Lord Digby's Spirit Animal

        “Her” pronouns are whatever I use if/when I talk about her. Which I’m hoping to do less of after this.

      • KSuellington

        Yeah, come on Kammy, get a bit more original
        She does have quite the fetish for old men that can get her more power though.

      • Lord Digby's Spirit Animal

        Either that, or, she likes having her hair sniffed.

        Or, could be both!

      • Gustave Lytton

        髪 (kami) is hair… perhaps Joe is on to something…

      • Rhywun

        I have wondered why cissies even bother.

      It’s nice to see him plagiarized for once.

    That the Canadians had a pop up logoed tent for processing their citizens off the Grand Princess just amazes me. Why is Trump allowing this tent gap to exist?

    #MakeAmericaBrandedAgain

    • KSuellington

      We have the best quarantines, just the best. People don’t want to leave these places, so nice. It’s hard to believe. I saw one myself and thought this could be a nice hotel. The Canadians, you know, they have their tents and all.

    • Chafed

      That is one patient cat.

      • Lord Digby's Spirit Animal

        And, a lucky bird. Then again, African Grays are supposed to be intelligent. Enough so that this one can effectively pester the cat.

  23. UnCivilServant

    Well, fever broke. Still have a cough and congestion but my temperature is normal without any overnight meds.

    Now I have to figure out if I burn another sick day, ask to work from home, or go and and spread nurgle’s blessings.

    • Sean

      Burn another sick day.

      • UnCivilServant

        I put in the request to work remotely, and I’m filling in time cards while I wait.

        I’m not going into the office to spread the joy.

  24. Gender Traitor

    ***SIGH*** It’s going to be a long day. I was up in the wee hours with a rambunctious cat. Finally got him settled down and sleeping on the bed, but then I couldn’t get back to sleep.

    • UnCivilServant

      I can empathize, though I’ve never had the issue with a cat, I do know the effect of insomnia.

      • Gender Traitor

        I’ve long been prone to insomnia. I have to watch my caffeine intake past noon, and I don’t dare take pseudoephedrine any time other than first thing in the morning. (That is, before it was effectively outlawed.)

      • Festus

        I’ve suffered since I was 8-9 years old. Doctor at the time prescribed sleeping pills. The early 70’s were a different world.

  25. Festus

    Going back to the earlier comments regarding “Vanishing Point” my buddy owned a ’71 Challenger with the 383 hemi and the slap shift. Good lord that car was fast. The first and only time that I’ve ever driven 140 MPH. This was 1982 so just imagine the abuse that poor thing must have suffered up until that point. He traded his stereo straight across for the car but rolled it on ice just a few months later. Wound up driving a Fargo pick-up for awhile and stepped down to a Datsun and finally a Maverick. That early 80’s blight was real, yo! The Maverick wound up on top of a bonfire while we danced around and cheered. Rednecks playing.
