Where the hell is Shay?

I think i sold my soul to that place a while back.....

But i have not yet been summoned, so Shay is usually here...

What's Up Buddy??

You have definitely gone full Alt-Right! :O

[shaina]

What's Up Buddy??

We've solved our mystery.

Who is "We've"??

And what mystery??

I answered your question... I am here........

And you ignored my question....Again.....

What's up buddy??

[IdolEyes787]

Before answering that, it would be smart to first find out which one of shay's personalities you are talking to.
This one seems pretty hostile. For all you know it could be the beast.

[j2k4]

I'm assuming that Texas Governor Greg Abbott's decision to remove all COVID restrictions is just his way of showing how much he really wants Ted Cruz dead.

I'm with you, bud. Who says that the Left and the Right can't agree about anything anymore?

I've never heard that - I think what you're noticing would more properly be described as speech being restricted by the current social conventions favored by the Left.

Agreement is there...sub rosa.





I think i sold my soul to that place a while back.....

But i have not yet been summoned, so Shay is usually here...

What's Up Buddy??

You have definitely gone full Alt-Right! :O

None of us on the Right have the slightest acquaintance with the alt-right.





We've solved our mystery.

Who is "We've"??

And what mystery??

I answered your question... I am here........

And you ignored my question....Again.....

What's up buddy??

The mystery was your sudden and complete absence.

I mentioned it here because people have complained to me recently about my own apparent absence.

I have lots of phone calls to make and locales to frequent.

Okay.

Shay, which one of you are you?

Everything is great, and thank your for caring J2K4, i am glad you are busy buddy, moving, shaking, and dealing;)


Okay.

This was an interesting analogy someone posted in a comment section J2K4, what do you think??;)



See, the democrats see government as their parents. They elect them to rule their lives. Set rules. Impose their will upon the public. Republicans on the other hand, they see government as the hired help. Handymen, security, service providers that we the people tell what we need

[IdolEyes787]

Another perfectly good pop culture reference wasted on you savages. You're like a bunch of Dave Gribbles, you are.

I'm a cat guy myself, but your board persona has not givin me that impression about you.

I'll pay more attention.

[j2k4]

Another perfectly good pop culture reference wasted on you savages. You're like a bunch of Dave Gribbles, you are.

Most of 'pop culture' is itself a waste; if not for osmosis, I would know nothing at all about it.

It's most irritating feature is the extent to which it defies my wish to ignore it.

Big kitties interests me, household ones, to be honest your spidey sense may be correct, i lean more to the Canine side;)

First time i saw Siegfried & Roy live in Vegas blew me away!!! It was a amazing show to see in a lifetime......

But hey knowing you are a conservative, as am i, you know choice is good and not socialists dictatorship forcing you what to like;)

Actually, I kinda know more than I let on.

I covet all big cats but I've also had dogs all my life.

I okayed Missus J picking out a Golden Doodle a little over a year ago (I'm into retrievers, so).

He's 120 lbs, now. :rolleyes:

My wife's family owned a farm/property (now a golf course) in Burlington (stretched from Walkers line to Guelph line)

Had every animal you could think of , like a fucking zoo :lol:, and boarded race and polo horses as well (her cousins played polo)

and had Three of these monsters!!! and 2 little monsters:)

186188

My wife bugs me every once and a while to get another dog, my condo allows pets but i am done with it, my wife is enough work :)

Actually just remembered my wife's friend had a labradoodle, and man it is a big dog!!!!

If you have any pictures you want to show(pup til now) luv to see......

[j2k4]

I'm up in the air on finding a place to host my pics, but I have a bunch.

Bogie (not Bogey) is the idiot's name, though he'll remind you of a bad golf shot.

Missus and I always had 4-5 cats and dogs, but a few years back we lost 4 animals in quick succession - old age-related stuff, and a rescue cat we fought to keep alive for his entire 7-year tenure with us; anyway, by the time it was over, we were wrecked.

Had one cat left, and then we got involved with moving my folks up here from Georgia and the wheels kinda came off everything.

Now, three years later, we still have the cat, inherited another from my folks - both of whom passed last year - and Bogie the pony-dog.

I've done large dogs (a Great Dane and a Mastiff) but lost each of them to hip diisplasia, which limited choices to retrievers and labs.

Last one we lost was a Golden, under really rotten circumstance, and Bogie was our first pup since then.

He's literally too much; Missus is tiny, and my shoulders and knees are trash, so I have to work to lead the pack, so to speak.

But yeah, animals all my life - my folks started the first animal shelter in Michigan back in the day, and I grew up doing euthanasia-duty on weekends with a family friend who was a state veterinary inspector volunteering his services.

I learned how not to cry over animals pretty young, then relearned how to cry as an adult.

Now, I'm inclined to get weepy-eyed watching YouTube videos. :lol:



I gotta put Itunes on this laptop so I can post some pics, that'll have to wait a bit.

I've got a couple of 'puters on every floor, and they aren't all synced, cuz I can't keep up with shit.

[IdolEyes787]

Just curious, j2k4. Are you also in favour of euthanasia/assisted suicide for humans? Btw this isn't some sort of gotcha question. I've known both man and beast where ending their life would be considered a mercy.

[j2k4]

I am in favor of Man's presumptive control of the animal world and hope he handles himself responsibly while observing his/her best idea of mercy.

I am always in favor of self-determination in life/death issues, but the matter is rife with legal, moral, ethical and practical problems.

That's a fancy way of saying I would reserve the option for myself, but prefer not to speak for others.

If anyone has more to say on the subject, please join in.

The answer you just gave would be the same as a person here trying to get 10 posts so he/she could get 2 free NZB's a day:)..or short, useless......

Better that question goes ignored from an obtuse, ignorant, instigator, that originally posted it;)

That is me joining in for you buddy:hug:

To answer your post #1013

Cool:cool:

No rush on the pics buddy, and if you want an email from me for reasons of not posting any on the open forum let me know and i will PM you one ok.....

[IdolEyes787]

[shaina]

Idol:

Lets get something straight here buddy...I am not mad nor do i hate you in any way, i really and truly think that you are an obtuse, ignorant instigator and really have no idea what is real or not....or understand the meaning of the word 'FACT" vs narrative or rumours or propaganda?? The same you have an issue with border line anti-semitism or Jewish hatred or jealousy, why i don't know?? But it is there for sure.....

Again i don't care what you say because you are full of shit and have zero credibility when it comes to politics.

So i have decided that better we talk about things that you are good at , Bicycles, the weather, small minded things where i don't need to look at stupidity....

Because no matter if you agree with conservatism or not, you have no idea what it stands for....

If you are a left wing Liberal?? What does it mean to you?? Then ask what you are seeing in the US is that what you would want??

If yes?? Great!!!, because if that is what you think a country should look like, i can say that is not freedom!!!!, That is for sure!!!!!!!

If you think the majority of the News media is really telling you the truth, and reporting all the news, and not cherry picking , spinning, leaving out FACTS to spin narratives, blatantly lying!!!! ,

Well great and that is your choice....

Lets talk bicycles :hug:

186195

[IdolEyes787]

So you're saying that you're not Kevin?

[shaina]

So you're saying that you're not Kevin?

Who is Kevin :unsure:

186196

[shaina]

Just curious, j2k4. Are you also in favour of euthanasia/assisted suicide for humans? Btw this isn't some sort of gotcha question. I've known both

Here is the difference you ignorant obtuse instigator !!!!

How can you be for any inhuman killing if you are pro life!!!!!!!!!!

You really think you are smart don't you idiot Idol!!!!

Post #989 Look up the Facts before you try to spew propaganda garbage!!!!!

Tell me Idol, when you look in the mirror do you see a Nazi symbol on your forehead ;)

186198

Post #1000 Again do some fact checking and see how many other US states didn't have or removed the " Mask Mandate" prior you moron !!!!!.. And that doesn't mean not to wear it anymore!!! nor did state governemt ever say that!!!!

It means you have a choice!!!!! You know the fucking citizens not the dictating FAKE SCIENCE!!!!!

Do you know what the word CHOICE means??? or is it just a Conservative thing now:01:

"FACTS"!!!!!

186197

Here is something for ya obtuse one.........

Vaughn is open with restrictions.....

So now you can go to restaurants and dine in....

Now you figure this out smart one!!!!!..

There is a limit of only 10 people at one time... So!!!

The restaurant holds 200 people they can only have 10 people!!!

Another restaurant that holds 25 people also can have 10 people

Does that make sense to you obtuse one?? Show me the science on this logic!!!!!!

The same you can have a fully enclosed tent outside of the restaurant and have 50 people sitting in that with the tables almost of top of each other!!!

Where is the science in that!!!!!!.....Forget about the proven numbers, and you can believe believe the fucking fake science, that restaurants have the least in spreading the Wuhan China Virus, yet they are forced to stay closed!!!!!

That is it for me debating with you about Politics buddy...Anything you post from now on no matter how moronic it is will be ignored by me....

Do you have any pics on the bicycles you have, that would be a better conversation with you:hug:

186199

My weekly golf friend, is getting fitted for these irons, i haven't decided to change my irons, but these do look sexy:naughty:

186201

I already have 2 of these scotty's ....

186203

[IdolEyes787]

So you're saying that you're not Kevin?

Who is Kevin :unsure:

It was either that or tell you how I really feel about a person who pretends they're your friend and then proceeds to publicly and pointedly unprovoked say such terrible things about you.

Btw "qwack" ie "fake" science is a term for a type of fraud and has nothing to do with the carefully researched and documented studies about a cabal of lizard people who eat children.

[IdolEyes787]

I'm also buying all my future bike stuff from China now, just because I'm that petty.

Fuck you, Western society.

[IdolEyes787]

You really think you are smart don't you idiot Idol!!!!

I've never claimed to be smart, just a SEAL, CIA officer, astronaut, model, Black, Asian, giving Elon Musk his first break , inventing the phrase "that'll do pig", spending six months at sea on the Calypso with Jacques Cousteau, and being the one time lover friend of Meg's.

[IdolEyes787]

Those golf clubs look really appealing to beat you over the head with right about now.

[j2k4]

Oh, you guys.

You've been itching to do your act for a while, and finally you have.

My advice:

Don't take it on the road.


The only reason to be less-than-serious is to be funny.


And just to be clear, Shay, I can't reject assisted suicide - that is to say, when the one suffering chooses it - out of hand.

[j2k4]

So you would participate??

Interesting scenario....

A senior living on the 18th floor of a condo, showing signs of dementia/alzheimer's decides to open the balcony door go out and get some fresh air, not long after you get a call that he is in pieces in the parking lot....

What would you call that death??

This becomes important in certain faiths where and how you will be put in your final resting place.....

I have seen many loved ones suffer, and had thoughts of putting a pillow over there head to stop the pain/suffering, but to me that is just not right....

Again saying "I can't reject " is not the same as doing /action...

The same if it was passed to be legal, is that a good or bad thing??...

If a abortion law is passed it is ok for a the mother that just gave birth to a beautiful child, then tells the doctor i don't want to be a mother, while you are standing next to her and you have zero rights/ say!!!, just the Mother and the Doctor!!!....

Saying "I cant reject that" does that thinking work??

Again these are discussions that are close to heart for me..

[shaina]

Idol, you have a lot going for you, which makes the 'Meg' part all the more tragic.

Shay, Idol, Meg, think of the buddy system....

That was once upon a time.......

[shaina]

Those golf clubs look really appealing to beat you over the head with right about now.

:lips: :artist: :lips:

Speaking of beat over the head.......

Big UFC PPV Card tonight!!! 3 Belts on the line.......

[shaina]

It was either that or tell you how I really feel about a person who pretends they're your friend and then proceeds to publicly and pointedly unprovoked say such terrible things about you.

Really!!!!, you have enough nerve to say something like that!!!!!

Saying my hand is not always out and has there back.....How do you reciprocate that?? By me being in the shadows and then seeing your Anti-Semitic posts, that have zero and i mean zero to do with the debate/posts prior!!!!!

Do you really know what you type for people to see on the screen?? Especially when you claim to be a friend, that is laughable Idol.......

How can you not use obtuse ignorant hypocrite after reading that. Even know i do take everything you post with a grain of salt.....

Think about that.....

We'll save abortion for another time, if you don't mind; the death penalty as well.


As to the other-

Would you, if your faith allowed it, reserve the choice for yourself?

Self-determination, and all that?

I am NOT talking about anything else, here - if you're not lucid enough to entertain the idea, well, then, the normal variety of eventualities will take place.

But if, while you are of sound mind. you set your wishes to paper as with a will?

What of that?

In the end, we answer to our religious and other beliefs...or we don't.

No matter what, I don't see the point in wrangling whether it needs legal sanction or not, because I'd be dead.

Of course, Democrats would like to sort a way to make money from it - make you buy a permit, perhaps, or penalize whatever estate you may have left.

If, as I suspect, you've lost people close to you to cancer, dementia, or other malady (as have I), you have seen the sort of misery that begs the question.

[shaina]

We'll save abortion for another time, if you don't mind; the death penalty as well.

I will agree , if you just think that everything we are discussing now will be lumped together by the left to dictate there beliefs/narrative/agenda....

Well what you are saying is not easy when it does become reality... Example....

My mother wanted to be cremated vs the fear of being in the ground, and it was known for a very long time... Now family faith denies that request, so it didn't happen...Now until if and i mean if we do see each other again, then she can do what she wishes with me, i feel that i did the right thing in my heart...
Again i am far from religious, but some things just need to be followed if you have any belief what happens after you leave this earth:unsure:


In the end, we answer to our religious and other beliefs...or we don't.

Answered above.....


No matter what, I don't see the point in wrangling whether it needs legal sanction or not, because I'd be dead.

Again i wish no harm and hope you live to 180:)

Again begs the question, the thoughts of someone suffering may outweigh the thought of some sort of recovery, cure, selfishness of difficulty of letting go....

The same goes who would be the one(s) that will have the power to do this?? Will it be a senior "Planned Parenthood"??

You have many siblings will they all agree or just the minority ??

It is a discussion that we may have but will have an outcome of nowhere?? Life is short and precious as i think we both can agree....

True Story....

Being the baby of 5 kids, my mother told me stories when i was young that she felt she lost a child she went into labour when i was born , funny how faith of someone up there gave me a healthy boy and girl at the same time:angel1:....

The other problem J2K4, is using faith as a weapon to get things or use them in arguments, that is not my intention, to me it is more of a guide of moral thinking towards others, and family, and then you can grow a society with human decency /nature. So saying that faith shouldn't run a society may be FAKE NEWS, but it has to start somewhere right......

The same trying to erase history and thinking you can write your own is just ridiculous as well, again how do you learn..

What is going on now just causes more divide and removes the thought of freedom be it right or wrong.......

I guess i could say that ........

[IdolEyes787]

Saying my hand is not always out and has there back.....How do you reciprocate that?? By me being in the shadows and then seeing your Anti-Semitic posts, that have zero and i mean zero to do with the debate/posts prior!!!!!
I didn't realize there was a law. I'm sorry, let me beg your forgiveness. All this time I'm been labouring under the misconception that if I didn't have any interest in what the pervious schlub posted then I was free to say whatever I wanted.
Again please forgive me. Clearly I am a bad man who does bad things and I hope the thought police don't arrest me.

Anti-semitic? As you've established in your own mind that my grades in school, all the tests I've ever taken and my skipping of two grades were cleverly faked by figures on the Left funded by Soros and I'm obviously a fucking idiot then how come a literal moron like me can tell when someone is attempting to make a joke and an astute fellow like yourself seemingly cannot?

If I didn't know any better and being me I obviously don't, then I would suggest that you are trying to cancel me and take away my right to free speech. What's next, radical socialist swine? Taking away my Confederate statues?

Also call me crazy but I prefer my Potato Heads to not have genitalia. Here, me and Tucker Carlson clearly disagree.

I read the other day Bette Midler took umbrage at the fact Mr. Potato Head's spare parts were stored in his ass.

I guess, then, knowing what faith means to me, and knowing as well what it means to others, I can't find grounds to quibble with anyone's choices relative to their ends.

As you say you are "far from religious" you nonetheless adhered to your religion, rather than your personal preference.

My stance assumes anyone making these decisions for themselves can be assured of follow-through.

In any case, I don't feel such decisions should be informed/regulated/dictated by the state.

If I am correct in taking it you are the father of twins, I must congratulate you - I always thought that would have been a treat. :)


At some point we'll have the abortion/death-penalty discussion; I find it can more easily be couched in logic than what we are currently talking about.

[j2k4]

Makes sense


As you say you are "far from religious" you nonetheless adhered to your religion, rather than your personal preference.

Because of my beliefs there was no other preferences/thoughts other then the one i chose....


My stance assumes anyone making these decisions for themselves can be assured of follow-through.

;)


In any case, I don't feel such decisions should be informed/regulated/dictated by the state.

But that debate falls into chaos when there isn't some sort of regulation or laws of the land if you know what i mean. Again, to debate that life and human nature should be respected.... How else can this be explained....My thinking having a name of "Planed Parenthood" and your main agenda is profiting on Abortions does not have the meaning of there name... Saying that, using the word "Suicide" in anything doesn't either...


If I am correct in taking it you are the father of twins, I must congratulate you - I always thought that would have been a treat. :)

I have been blessed with 3 kids,an older boy and yes i have a twin boy and girl, thanks for the congrats, and yes it was fun raising 2 at a time:)



At some point we'll have the abortion/death-penalty discussion; I find it can more easily be couched in logic than what we are currently talking about.

Sounds good, whenever you are ready buddy, i am here;)

[IdolEyes787]

Religion is a standardized set of rules, maybe. Faith on the other hand is the belief in something that defies proof. As such while it exists within every religion is not confined to any. I have faith you'll agree.

I read the other day Bette Midler took umbrage at the fact Mr. Potato Head's spare parts were stored in his ass.

Somehow I'm not surprised she chose to point this out.

I've always considered Bette Midler to be a less talented version of Barbara Streisand but one with more chutzpah.

A person who steals bread to feed his family is not evil. The love not the lack of money is root of most evil.

Shay, I think the real reason that j2k4 and not yourself will engage me on certain contentious topics is that while j2k4 is at least as entrenched in his beliefs as you are, he has determined in his own mind through reasoning that they are valid and therefore defensible against anything I may say while you on the other hand are merely repeating wank talking points that you read or heard elsewhere and therefore lack the necessary internal belief that they are true. In other words "Nahnahnahnah. I have my fingers in my ears. I can't hear you", sheeple. Bleat once if I'm in the ballpark.

I humbly await your lack of reply or angry rant as proof of the above run-on assertion.

[IdolEyes787]

Idol, you have a lot going for you, which makes the 'Meg' part all the more tragic. If loving Meg is wrong, I don't want to be right.

My uncle was a Baltimore fireman who drove a limo for spare cash.

He told me stories of watching Bette Midler in the mirror having her rug munched.

I don't have to rant nor do i have to reply to nonsense, nor do you really understand religion or faith because you have none;)

Now i see you type words on a page yet i don't really think you understand what you type.. Now getting into the reasons , calling it profiling or reading a person, it is not worth it to embarrass you, and being a bigger man i just wouldn't do it on an open forum.......

You are always entitled to you opinions..... But always remember just a few things.....

Having a Family makes a difference.....

Being in a place talking face to face with a crowd of people, and not sitting in a corner makes a difference......

And i will finish with this.....

When my mother died i went to shul every morning for a few months, now even know i am not religious i give donations to this synagogue, because i have seen they do good things for society.....

When is the last time you stepped into a place or worship?? Be it a joy of a wedding or that sadness of a death?? I would say a very very long time......

So saying your nonsense in this post, i know you have problems understanding certain things and again i will never embarrass you to that degree on a open forum.....

Getting back to my point....

Now when i lost my father i didn't go to shul i just mourned and prayed for him at home........

But i do remember something that my friend and Chabad-Lubavitch Rabbi said to me......

He said and knows that i will never be a religious person, but seeing you here knowing that some religion/faith is better than none......

Now i know for someone like you, that is difficult to understand, and there is reasons for it....

But i think you don't understand the difference between having thoughts and actions... This is where you get lost....

Having a conversation with you typing words on a page and actions in the real world i think you mix those things up...........

Again i have no reason to rant or rave what you typed on this page , i will say that you remind me of a person that thinks he knows but has never experienced...

So instead of asking the right questions , looks in a reply/answer that will align with your thinking.....

Example JK24 never answered your question with fully he kept it open or vague.....you seem to like that, where I would answer it straight and you just don't like that......

I am not comparing lives buddy in any way, i am just telling you that your post is obtuse and ignorant..

I am not a phony person, and don't have two visions one for typing words here ,and one in reality, i can say i hope you do because what you typed is just nonsense...

Again not like you i don't wish harm on people and i care, and that shows that i will apologize if i have offended people here, you have proved over and over you really don't give a shit, and if someone is not here for a few days you start with anti-Semitic comments and try to gather more into your garbage....

Now i know some people are just in denial and really don't see it....."How can i be that i have Jewish friends" , look at that quote and see if that makes sense to you....

And once you type something in and see the next replies,, I know you have some issues buddy, but i won't type something on this page that wouldn't say to your face...

If we were sitting in a bar together, and 2 of my friends walked in and you spoke what you type here what do you think would happen???

Keep that in mind on my style of communicating and yours.......

G-D ( HaShem) Bless Idol.......

PS.. I have my own beliefs and views, and when i post things here they either align with them or the opposite, and that shows in my comments about said post...

I have a family i raised children, i am a Role Model/Father/Husband/Provider/Life Educator/Leader, i am not a follower, i don't have that if you want to call it a luxury Idol............

The same if you ever ask me a personal/opinion question, you will get my answer, not vague, straight in your face, if you understand that, that is the way i am built... If you don't want to see that don't ask:hug:

[shaina]

They have matching beaks, though.

Actually Barbra's is bigger, makeup and screen shots fix that:)

Truth... There was always rumours and questions why she never got a nose job?? But she always said she is who she is and of course fear of losing her vocal levels.....


My uncle was a Baltimore fireman who drove a limo for spare cash.

He told me stories of watching Bette Midler in the mirror having her rug munched.

Boy i can tell you i better bring a wallet full of cash, because it seems we would be in the bar together for a long time listening and telling all the stories

I've always considered Bette Midler to be a less talented version of Barbara Streisand but one with more chutzpah.


Why do you say that??

Can you explain??

And when you try to answer look up the meaning of "Jino" , and the reason why she has to be that way......

And think is it parenting?? Weak minded influence? Denial?? Human Nature??

In my opinion Bette and Barbra are not even close to the same league of vocal abilities, Barbra blows her away!!!!!!

The questions now.....

Celine Dion vs Mariah Carey?? (Even know Celine has been compared to Barbra)

Beyoncé vs Whitney Houston??

An interesting comparison....

Judas priest vs Freddie Mercury (Queen)??

Add on............

Ms Midler was far more flamboyant in her younger days for one thing and I felt that chutzpah was as good a word as any to use to describe her type of audaciousness.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYM-_yyOpec


Streisand may have starred in The Owl and the Pussycat but as a singer she was generally far more classy.



Celine Dion is a better singer than Carey. Both are extremely technically proficient but Dion brings more emotion to a song.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUTH1plKYhw

Never cared for Beyonce so Whitney.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxYw0XPEoKE

Freddie Mercury is the pinnacle of what every male singer aspires to so him versus Rob Halford or anyone is rather a moot point, innit?

Second, a census taker once tried to profile me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti.

Sorry with respect, if I continue to disappoint you by my inability to bring your level of seriousness to an internet forum about thievery, shay.

As for why, I think the fact I skipped two grades while in my formative years possibly has something to do with how I interact with people in general and foolish ones in particular.

Idol - Shay essentially thinks I am wishy-washy, but diplomatic.

He takes pains to be diplomatic while communicating this. :D

I promise as some point to take a hard stance on something in order to prove my mettle.


Actually Barbra's is bigger, makeup and screen shots fix that:)

Truth... There was always rumours and questions why she never got a nose job?? But she always said she is who she is and of course fear of losing her vocal levels.....

She's said she didn't want to get nose-job because it would disappoint her mother.

As to her voice, I think she had the same suspicion as Freddie Mercury Bulsara, who refused to fix his teeth.

Also, I think her voice was pretty strong, but Aretha could have put her away pretty easily.

Your seem to use the excuse of skipping two grades and having to sit in a principals office every day for lunch for fear of getting the shit kicked out of you a popular thing.


The same religion or faith doesn't need to be used to have a humorous post , more of a child crying for attention would be more accurate for that reasoning....

But that is hard for you to comprehend because maybe the 2 grades you skipped actually would have taught you that;).....

Again moving forward will show , if you choose a friendship or not, there is no sense going back and forth with garbage, it really is a wast of time....

Almost like using the example of a digital/Cd version vs a vinyl lp which is becoming very popular again for music aficionados:)

The same i will agree with you as long as it can be repeated in a live concert and not just used on a track,......

Here is a comparison....

Max Webster vs Bon Jovi??

Don't Canadians have to default to Max Webster, because of Rush?

I'll go with Webster; I'm torn on any act from New Jersey - Bo Jovi and Springsteen have both pissed me off with their politics...

[IdolEyes787]

Here is some comparisons....

Max Webster vs Bon Jovi??

Led Zeppelin vs The Who??

Genesis vs King Crimson??

Janet Jackson vs Madonna ??

Taylor Swift vs Lady GaGa

Drake vs Eminem ??

Rush vs :unsure:

I honestly have a hard time comparing some (not all) of those. I even tried Googling " bands similar to Max Webster" and nothing that came up seemed that close to me. Therefore I'll just say who I like better.

Max Webster. I like some of Bon Jovi's music but it is a lot more generic than Webster's
Led Zeppelin I love The Who but Zeppelin, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones in that order.
Genesis v King Crimson is a good one. Pre Peter Gabriel leaving the band Genesis. Post Peter Gabriel leaving the band King Crimson.
Jackson vs Madonna. I shall pass as either's main talent had anything to do with music.
Swift v GaGa. Both are only interested in maxing income so again, pass. Taylor is the better song writer though while GaGa is the better singer.
Rush vs Yes or Emerson, Lake and Palmer maybe? Anyway Rush until you can come up with a better Progressive/hard rock band with questionable vocals.

I liked "Red Barchetta" a lot when I was younger as it really seemed to tell a story I wanted at that time to hear.

[IdolEyes787]

You guys should invest in cyber-ink.

I don't know what that is but it sounds subversive, commie.

Btw and this is maybe a totally true story, Shay describes me to his friends as "You know Joe Pesci's character in Goodfellas? He's like that only less reasonable".

[IdolEyes787]

Top singers minus the most obvious Ian Gillan and David Coverdale both at one time with Deep Purple, Chris Cornell and Eddie Vetter both at one time with Temple of the Dog. Vetter is a bit like Johnny Cash in that he's a really great singer without being a great singer.

I can agree with a lot of your picks for sure.....

Here is something interesting....

In my move to the condo i went through a ton of records that i had in boxes in the basement, some were mine but most of them were my brothers......

Now i think i have mentioned that i have/had 2 older brothers one 3 years older and my oldest other olav ha-sholom that just past away 10 years.....

Now my oldest olav ha-sholom loved Rock, and couldn't stand Disco/Pop etc....

Second oldest brother loved disco!!!! I mean i had every bloody extended album in a box that you can think of in his box.....

I myself when i was a teenager leaned more towards rock/metal........, Then as i got older every genre opened up.......

I just had that thought......

Even know i don't listen to some of these for personal reasons.....

Pink Floyd vs.......

Tragically Hip vs.....

Nash the Slash/FM vs......


I liked "Red Barchetta" a lot when I was younger as it really seemed to tell a story I wanted at that time to hear.

Saying that can you think really of a bad song from the Album Moving Pictures???

Better J2K4's suggestion, think of how many albums made you can listen to it complete without the urge of skipping a song??

I can start off with....

Pink Floyd... The Wall....... For sure if i ever decide to listen to it again.........

The Cars.....First Album..........

Queen... Jazz:unsure:

Black Sabbath......Master of Reality.......
And no compilations or best of :)

Actually the way i look at it, Rush made it world wide, the same i am wondering if you can thank Kiss (Gene Simmons) for that......

But really there is always a few local bands that are just great!!, yet they never make it to world fame status, Max Webster would be one of those bands for me....

Does Kurt Cobain fit in here somewhere??

No, Cobain is singular, I think - like him or not.


I honestly have a hard time comparing some (not all) of those. I even tried Googling " bands similar to Max Webster" and nothing that came up seemed that close to me. Therefore I'll just say who I like better.
Max Webster. I like some of Bon Jovi's music but it is a lot more generic than Webster's
Led Zeppelin I love The Who but Zeppelin, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones in that order.
Genesis v King Crimson is a good one. Pre Peter Gabriel leaving the band Genesis. Post Peter Gabriel leaving the band King Crimson.
Jackson vs Madonna. I shall pass as either's main talent had anything to do with music.
Swift v GaGa. Both are only interested in maxing income so again, pass. Taylor is the better song writer though while GaGa is the better singer.
Rush vs Yes or Emerson, Lake and Palmer maybe? Anyway Rush until you can come up with a better Progressive/hard rock band with questionable vocals.

I can agree with a lot of your picks for sure.....




I can start off with....

Pink Floyd... The Wall.......

Thought-provoking...

Yeah, Webster over Bon Jovi for sure.

Certain bands are incomparable, and I count Zeppelin, The Who, Pink Floyd and Rush, right at the top.

I will shock you both and add Toto - watch/listen to Live in Poland for some of the best progressive power-pop you'll ever hear:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0k5MzMTt4k0

We could go on with this, and we probably should.


Genesis pre/post Peter Gabriel/King Crimson are all tops.

Janet Jackson was/is a doll - Madonna is a whore, and uglier than homemade sin.

Jackson gets the nod musically, too.

Swift nor GaGa; yuck, ew, etc.

ELP was the first brush with prog-rock for a lot of people; Yes, as well.

I'll leave you with this:

I am bored Obtuse one........

I just bought shares in a nightclub Downtown Toronto.......

The place is packed!!!!!!

There is a huge lineup outside from people trying to get in, and i see you in line and think you are the ugliest transgender i have ever seen!!!!!!


And i am letting in people behind you in line constantly....

Now being your right you try to sue me for not letting you in because you still have your small penis and again are one of the ugliest Transgenders i have ever seen......


Is it legally my right who i let into my establishment??


Next.....

Now i am running a State, and i am charge/represent/elected to run the state and protect the legal people/citizens that live in that state.....

Again your face is plastered all over the border and in there computer system, that you are a drug mule and child molester, and occasionally disguise yourself as a different cross dresser and keep getting across and getting caught and sent back....

Now there is a new sheriff in town and he has different feelings about you, and thinks what the heck let the piece of shit in no matter he poses a threat to people in the state!!!.. Heck if i do that give him free shit and give him citizenship and the right to vote, heck it may vote for me every time...........

What do you do if you live on the border and have a family, and your guns are taken away from you because Left Wing Government doesn't give a shit what happens to you ??


Now i know obtuse one, this may be hard for you to understand , but hey, sometimes you can't please everyone, but some laws do protect everyone, even know they might not think so or like it..........

Mississippi governor signs bill banning transgender students from women's sports, approving first anti-trans law of 2021

Transgender athletes in Mississippi's public schools and colleges will no longer be allowed to compete in women's sports after the state's Republican governor on Thursday signed the first statewide anti-trans law of 2021.

Keep going American States!!!!!!

Hey Obtuse one, i think you can relate to this right;)

Heat's Meyers Leonard punished for using anti-Semitic slur during video game livestream

Leonard is barred from Miami's facilities and activities for one week and is subjected to a large fine

Leonard came under immediate scrutiny as videos circulated on social media. He apparently directed the slur to somebody else he was playing with during the livestream. At the time, he had more than 69,000 followers on Twitch, and over 550,000 between his Twitter and Instagram platforms.

"F--king cowards. Don’t f--king snipe me. You f--king k--e b--ch," Leonard said during the stream.

Leonard claimed in an apology note that he did not know what the word meant at the time.

"I am deeply sorry for using an anti-Semitic slur during a livestream yesterday," Leonard said in a statement. "While I didn't know what the word meant at the time, my ignorance about its history and how offensive it is to the Jewish community is absolutely not an excuse and I was just wrong."


What do you think there Obtuse ignorant one:)......

Is he really sorry or is he sorry he got caught?? The same being of his age and born in Woodbridge, Virginia USA, do you really buy he didn't know what it meant??

Not sure if you can learn from this Obtuse one nor do i think you care too, but hey there is always faith maybe you will;)...

Leonard will also be required to participate in a cultural diversity program.

Ya!!, like that would do you any good to you obtuse one:lol:

[IdolEyes787]

In defense of the puerile anti-semite, there's zero percent chance he wasn't molested growing up.:mellow:

When he was in second grade, the young Leonard gained a surrogate family. Brian Siler, an insurance agent in Robinson who had a son of the same age, was aware of Leonard's family situation, and eventually became a father figure. Leonard regularly attended the Silers' church and went on family vacations.

Anyway, if I were betting my life, I would bet that Leonard is lying about not knowing what the k word meant , the fucking, lying cracker.

[IdolEyes787]

I dunno but personally I find this to be pretty offensive. Probably more so because he isn't even fucking Canadian.

Ah, that is strange if it is true:unsure:....

Hey if you look at this, there is roads that are privately owned but deemed "Right Away", they can not be charged to use as far as i know........

Reading/Skimming through that article....It makes zero sense how that is allowed............

Even say you have a cottage and the person you purchased it from , the only way in is a "Right Away" and the same a man made body of water, or lake front,

Does any person have the right to charge you from going on there side of the water?? I never saw that before, the same if you have a lakefront property, and have a dock, i assume even if you build it do you really own it?? The same knowing that can anyone use it??

Now this....

Have you ever gone on vacation and the hotel has blocked off parts of the beach and deemed it private?? Again do they really own the land?? The same who owned it originally to sell it??

Now the question is Idol, and being honest , i don't really know what it means, but i know it is considered bad to say so it is better to avoid it.......

the same , that word can be avoided in the English language, because really does it have any other meanings to use it ???

Now the word "Cracker" that is a word with so many uses and meanings, it can't be avoided...

And funny even if you removed it saying cancel/culture really the "N" word and the "K" word would they be missed??

Now getting into muddy waters........

The "N" word is ok for 2 or more of the said colour use the word themselves....So really do they want it cancelled ?? And if they use it themselves how can they call it racists??

Now the "K" word, 2 or more the same that it is against, this word will never be used in any way or form..........

And the word "Cracker" well i have said my piece and interesting in the English language , there are many words spelled the same and have different meaning right :)

Does that make sense what i said Idol?? Do you have anything to add??

[IdolEyes787]

Right and wrong aside, I personally lean towards not saying any words that might get me killed.

Speaking of cunts,
Majority of New York congressional Democrats call for Gov. Cuomo's resignation
Their decision follows another, less than 24 hours earlier, by Democrats in the state Assembly to launch an impeachment investigation that will be carried out concurrently with the state attorney general's independent probe.

This is a case of supreme arrogance. Nothing good can possibly come from Cuomo refusal to resign.
Remember the innocent days of Al Franken having to resign because some woman of questionable morals and strong Republican Party affiliation, accused him of talking in an off colour way about her?

[IdolEyes787]

I bought something from New Jersey on Feb 28 and because there weren't any other options I had to use USPS. A seven hour drive from the warehouse to my door. Two weeks later and it still hasn't even made it to the Canadian border. I literally could have walked it here quicker myself. Fucktards.

Well if i do say i agree with you, it may be for different reasons, and not the women coming out with allegations, and i am not saying i don't believe them, but Cuomo has the right and assumption of innocence Idol, i don't have agendas to guilt on either side.....

But the 15 thousand seniors that is a different story. And as you said that is not being spoken and deflected in the news media for sexual assault assumptions......

Lives don't matter and make people talk about him to resign :rolleyes:

And the question Idol where is all the people that went after Kavanaugh!!!!!!

The same do you remember the now vice President call the now President a "RACISTS"!!!!! and we are talking to millions of people watching and hearing it!!!!

When she was asked that question after being picked for her new Title/Job.. She is in record saying "That is just Politics" Idol!!!!

Like i said the true meaning of the word "RACISTS" is gone, and just used as a tool!!!





Remember the innocent days of Al Franken having to resign because some woman of questionable morals and strong Republican Party affiliation, accused him of talking in an off colour way about her?

Again i don't remember seeing the push from the Republican Party as much as the Me Too movement and Kirsten Gillibrand being the most outspoken.......

And really did he have to resign ?? That to me was questionable Idol......

The same what Trudeau did, it never came to mind nor would i ever say that Trudeau was or is a racists, a fucking moron yes but not a racists.........

What about this... We never discussed .....

Gov. Ralph Northam

Can't get better proof, and this Governor admitted it was him....

186239

And Northam saying i don't have a racists bone in my body and i have African Americans on my staff;)

Again you get my point, even trying to say it was wrong or saying i didn't understand it was wrong, what say you??

And ya he didn't resign, he finished his term and then disappeared.... Again that may end up happening with Cuomo ....And that outcome will be decided by the Left Wing Media and big Tech....That is if he gets away with what he did when it comes to killing 15 thousand seniors..........

You have had that problem before??

Did you contact the people you ordered it from?? They can track it or find out the issue as well???


I know there was a problem on our side with a Wuhan China Virus outbreak and they replaced all the staff, the international postal sorting was backed up........

You have a tracking number?? And the same not sure what the package is again but is customs an issue...

[IdolEyes787]

I'm pretty sure it's a laziness/I missed slavery issue because somehow Amazon can get me something from Colorado in 48 hrs.
Btw regular tracking updates that shows it's moving albeit like a glacier and not in customs. Weird though it went through customs in the States about a week ago and I've never known anything to be checked by customs in the originating country before.

Sure it is , consider it double checked, because believe it or not does the US really care what comes into Canada???

As long as it is not harmful chemicals etc. for either side the US is lax if it comes from there to here, or of course duties or tariffs right

And the same coming from Canada is lax shipping and the US really checks......

PS. And the mention of Amazon.... Well as long as it is not 3rd party, then yes you are correct....

If you go on Best Buys site idol, there is 3rd party products that they sell as well and give no guarantee on them..........

Again i remember you did finally get the other package you spoke of, so ya it is fucking slow but i think you will get it:)

Again the Canadian side for sure checks shit too.......


PS.. I do also know there is a priority mail service also available and you pay a bit more and that speeds up delivery as well??

You know like the next day service charge from private delivery services......

Again i don't know if it is always available:unsure:

Hot from Fox News my obtuse ignorant friend;)

Amazon slammed after banning books it says frames transgenderism as mental illness

‘Amazon is using its massive power to distort the marketplace of ideas,’ author tells Wall Street Journal

Liberal billionaire Jeff Bezos's behemoth online retailer Amazon is receiving fierce criticism after announcing it would no longer sell books that it says frame transgender and other sexual identities as mental illnesses.

Amazon announced the decision in a letter sent to Republican lawmakers that was obtained and published by the Wall Street Journal. Sens. Marco Rubio, Mike Lee, Mike Braun, and Josh Hawley had inquired why the online retailer pulled Ryan T. Anderson’s bestselling book, "When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment," which has been characterized by the Bezos-owned Washington Post as anti-transgender.

Why is this happening, is Amazon the police of free speech or are they supposed to be a hub for selling products!!!!!


Again it is amazing all the other conspiracy theory and propaganda books easily available for purchase:noes:

[Caballero]

Why is this happening, is Amazon the police of free speech or are they supposed to be a hub for selling products!!!!!

There's that free market for you, that we all cherish. A private entity making decisions what to buy or sell without government pressure or influence. Ain't life grand?

Feel free to buy the book at your local Barnes & Noble (oh, wait... free market and all that!). I mean, it's not like there aren't other book stores or libraries where you might get the book in case you want to get your grubby mittens on a copy. I mean, it's just like with those Dr. Seuss books, which I think Idol already explained to you.

I'm sorry, where's the outrage again? Or did I misunderstand and you want the government to tell you what to read? I'm confused.

[shaina]

I saw this headline and it got me thinking , about my comments and how i feel and look at things.......

Sharon Osbourne apologizes for defending Piers Morgan amid Meghan Markle debate: 'I felt blindsided'

The former 'Good Morning Britain' co-host severed ties with ITV following critical comments he made about the Duchess of Sussex

Sharon Osbourne is walking back her previous support of British television personality Piers Morgan, who left "Good Morning Britain" as co-host this week following a heated debate over Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey.

Osbourne, 68, fired off a tweet in support of Morgan after he came under fire for claiming he "didn’t believe Meghan Markle in her Oprah interview," among other intense claims. Morgan's remarks drew more than 41,000 complaints to the ITV network.

I ask this,, how many people dislike Howard Stern and how many love him??

Now i can say that i have had disagreements with peoples ideals and thoughts, and the same i have said many many times that i can't stand Trump but yet if i like his polices or the parties , right away i am considered a "Trump Supporter"....

Now i really ask how many people that voted for Biden are really Biden supporters or Anti Trump Supporters, including the corrupt Lincoln Project, that those supporters probably voted Republican down ballad and left the President out, which means in my view a vote for Biden:yup:...

Now i Take someone like Cabby, J2K4 or any of my friends here that have children.... and we can argue back and forth about politics etc...and i saw one of there family members in trouble i would protect them with all of my heart, and i do think Cabby would do the same, again politics don't matter.....Could you call that Patriotism?? I am not sure......

Now Saying if i was teamed up with Piers Morgan on the golf course or Trump i would play the round with them no problem....

But if it was Roger Waters or Mel Gibson, i would pass, but the question is would i help there family members if they were in trouble?? I would have to say yes i would.....

It is almost the same if i am forced to go out in couples with one of the wife's friends or vice versa, being civil is not my strong suit if i don't like you but getting older that has tamed down and works or is tolerable for a short span.. But saying that it doesn't happen too often so i guess i am lucky that way.......

Sometimes life can be very strange....

The same Cabby may have his ways how he raises his kids, and the same myself, i can say that i would not try to change or influence my ways on them, i would respect Cabby's ways of his kids upbringing and adapt and respect it.....

Now the question, there are times where i have gone to restaurants with other families , and they let there kids run around all over , where my kids do not!!!!, the same some kids are not allowed to order certain things on a menu or say drink sodas etc.. My kids can do what they want when it comes to those things........

Now where does politics or race , gender beliefs partners picked come in or even need to be mentioned!!!! The answer is never!!!!!!

So ask yourself this you have a divided country yet there is a lot of things in common... Truly i find that there isn't a party that overlaps agendas or beliefs!!!.. They are extreme opposites!!!!!....

Does anyone really see that as a problem....

[shaina]

I'm sorry, where's the outrage again? Or did I misunderstand and you want the government to tell you what to read? I'm confused.

No Cabby i want the government to have the least control of everything possible.........

But now how is the question to stop big monopoly businesses to take that choice away from you...

Again you saw my post on my choice of letting small penis Trans Gender Idol into my bar....

So your alternative of using other choices for sourcing things sounds great, but look what happens if you try to go against the grain of the big Monopolies???

Does it work... And if it does what is the cost to purchase it??

Now i know you are like me and if you really want something you will buy it, again look for the best deal but still buy it.....Now the question is where sometimes right......

Does Free Market really exist?? You know the saying there is no such thing as a Free Lunch :lol:....

I think they all start out like that then they get too fat then they get political , and the people they hire to run things makes it worse!!!!

Don't you ever notice when you walk into a store and really look at the staff, and then see the Manager or the person in charge of hiring...

Ask if the owners have a certain view, do you think they are going to hire someone running day to day operations that have a different one??

Is there such a thing today as a person that stands on equal party lines???

If you claim to be the largest seller of something yet you refuse to sell something because of your own political views, what type of reputation do you think they end up with??

And now do they really care because they do have all the "POWER" and political influence??

Here is a question for everyone.......

Do you think local police that is supposed to protect society.....Do you think it is a branch of government???

[Caballero]

So you are for the free market, until you are not. And government intervention is bad, until it is not. Sounds to me like you aspire to a form of a regulated capitalistic market economy, like they have in Germany or Scandinavia.

I did not know you were such a fan of Elizabeth W. and Bernie S. :)

ROTFLMAO no Cabby..

I said i wish there was a way didn't i LOL!!!

The same if you say i want the government to implement laws to protect citizens is that Socialism LOL!!!!

Not bail outs, again you would misunderstand right;)...

The problem is when a big company becomes more powerful then government, then what??

The same right now the majority of the changes are being done by executive order not legislative branches, is that Democratic or Socialist......

Compare how many presidents prior combined and Biden has done that deed...... Again we all know why , but hey when you control the White House you live by the sword and die by it as well.....

So i believe in free capitalism , and really don't see how only a few can control the outcome but there has to be a solution for that........

[shaina]

Here is the thing Cabby....

I am old, and yes i am not saying that you are as young as my kids but you may have some thinking the same as them vs myself......

Now my kids think that if we live in a Democratic Capitalist society why do we not get to vote on changes that do affect the people/society........


Now this would make sense on what is going on now......

So lets sum this up.... When Trump was President, he campaigned on policies and made them happen, there was no secrets period, nor did he lie on what the agenda was........
Now i know you didn't like it but the people voted then and he won and implemented the promises or agenda that is just plain FACTS!!!!!

Now lets talk about this election that just passed.....

Now you have All Left Wing candidates out there in the Democratic Primary and none of them had any chance of winning with there policies..In other words the majority of the people said they didn't want anything that radical or if you want toe call it like it is a Socialists Communists Agenda right......

So now you introduce a candidate , lock him in a basement and when he was allowed out he spewed things that Moderates could grab on to.........

So in short.... Keeping him out of the media, and let them run the campaign and any time you let the candidate running for president , make sure he knows his lines and never asked any questions from the media , and now run a i guess good ground campaign throw some cheating in there and boom bang bing you have a new President......


Now lets get this straight!!!!. what this president told the majority of the people who voted for him was all bullshit!!!!!!......

The Agenda that was spewed on the campaign is not being implemented, a Far Left Wing Agenda is!!!! Again you may like it........

Now here is the question, the Mass Left Wing Media today is still protecting this President, but how much longer do you think they can..........

Again you may be happy, but are you the majority of the people that voted for Biden?? Considered Moderate, Or did because of the alternate choice........

Now if you are in denial and don't agree with me , well that is very interesting........Especially the media suppression of the people that voted Democrat are not very happy, no matter how you try to spin this, Moderates are not happy, especially hard working ones..In Democrat run states;)

Again this my opinion.....

PS... And the real disturbing question, Is Biden really running the country?? Or a head that pops out every once and while?? And just told what to do by others??....

Over 50 days, no press conference , and i mean able to ask questions!!!! , no pictures with other countries leaders, the Vice President is speaking implementing foreign policy???

Again you don't find it strange Cabby??

And ya he didn't resign, he finished his term and then disappeared.... Again that may end up happening with Cuomo ....And that outcome will be decided by the Left Wing Media and big Tech....That is if he gets away with what he did when it comes to killing 15 thousand seniors..........

Northam hasn't gone anywhere, Shay.

The strategy is the same, however:

Northam's truest problem was his abortion stance, which today equates to Cuomo's Nursing Home trespasses.

The black-face in Northam's case is Cuomo's habit of physical overstep.

Distractions for deflection, you see.

I'd be more outraged if it were umm, you know... true. Also seemed to have heard incorrectly and Republicans apparently aren't strongly in favour of anything that could get the economy and the schools up and running again, where the majority of those missing percentages lie.
Btw if you can't be buggered to read the link, that 9% was also before a minimum wage increase was excised from the Bill.

In defense of the puerile anti-semite, there's zero percent chance he wasn't molested growing up.:mellow:


Anyway, if I were betting my life, I would bet that Leonard is lying about not knowing what the k word meant , the fucking, lying cracker.

Now the question is Idol, and being honest , i don't really know what it means, but i know it is considered bad to say so it is better to avoid it.......

the same , that word can be avoided in the English language, because really does it have any other meanings to use it ???

Now the word "Cracker" that is a word with so many uses and meanings, it can't be avoided...

And funny even if you removed it saying cancel/culture really the "N" word and the "K" word would they be missed??

Now getting into muddy waters........

The "N" word is ok for 2 or more of the said colour use the word themselves....So really do they want it cancelled ?? And if they use it themselves how can they call it racists??

Now the "K" word, 2 or more the same that it is against, this word will never be used in any way or form..........

And the word "Cracker" well i have said my piece and interesting in the English language , there are many words spelled the same and have different meaning right :)

Does that make sense what i said Idol?? Do you have anything to add??

Exactly so, Shay, but we have such a variety of generational manifestation it may easily have been that Leonard's digestion of the K-word went no further than as a vague colloquialism, perhaps even one he had only previously heard from someone else playing a game.

I think possibly this case - while not necessarily textbook - yanks enough of cancel-culture's triggers to have gotten Leonard his very own flash-impeachment.


Right and wrong aside, I personally lean towards not saying any words that might get me killed.

Ultimately, yes.

I've taken enough chances to know.

I and two buddies were shooting pool out-of-town in a little brick grotto alongside a bowling alley one time.

The pool table was in a room accessed through a about a triple-wide hole in a brick wall - the alley had found the space when they updated their pin-setting gear, and were able to rid themselves of some storage.

At some point, we became aware the entire hole-in-the-wall was filled and then some by huge bull-dykes as far as we could see; a dozen or more.

All of them had cues-in-hand.

We had no idea it was ladies night for these...ladies.

My pals looked at each other and one of them said "gotta go, we literally blow them down like bowling pins and got out of there.

My buddy asked me why I hadn't stopped to tell them to fuck off.

He was just kidding, but.


I bought something from New Jersey on Feb 28 and because there weren't any other options I had to use USPS. A seven hour drive from the warehouse to my door. Two weeks later and it still hasn't even made it to the Canadian border. I literally could have walked it here quicker myself. Fucktards.

Welcome to our BEST GSE.



Why is this happening, is Amazon the police of free speech or are they supposed to be a hub for selling products!!!!!


There's that free market for you, that we all cherish. A private entity making decisions what to buy or sell without government pressure or influence. Ain't life grand?

Feel free to buy the book at your local Barnes & Noble (oh, wait... free market and all that!). I mean, it's not like there aren't other book stores or libraries where you might get the book in case you want to get your grubby mittens on a copy. I mean, it's just like with those Dr. Seuss books, which I think Idol already explained to you.

I'm sorry, where's the outrage again? Or did I misunderstand and you want the government to tell you what to read? I'm confused.


Acquiescence in aid of better sales...or so they think.

Not yet universal, but influence is influential, you know?

Occasionally you'll hear it's blown up in someone's face, but not too often.



I'd be more outraged if it were umm, you know... true. Also seemed to have heard incorrectly and Republicans apparently aren't strongly in favour of anything that could get the economy and the schools up and running again, where the majority of those missing percentages lie.
Btw if you can't be buggered to read the link, that 9% was also before a minimum wage increase was excised from the Bill.

You're the victim of misperception, Idol.


Have you tumbled to the fact Snopes is compromised as well?

[j2k4]

I forgot to point out that $15/hr minimum wage will undeniably be a brake on employment, but aside from that, all it does is move the bottom wage - it's still the bottom, and so will be eternally viable as a political football, only needing a bit of new air, now and then.


Fuck this, I'm exhausted.

[IdolEyes787]

It was $15 at the end of the next five years and only an increase to $9.50 initially. If the minimum wage had been tied to inflation, it would have risen to ~$12.11 since the last increase. I don't ask for any businesses to go belly up over this but seriously, your workers wages can't reflect the cost of inflation? because as a consumer I can state emphatically that your prices sure do and then some.
Btw $9.50/hr is $1520/mth which pretty much lands you right square in the middle of you're fucked. Sure it would be nice if everyone could find a better job but fact is many, many people simply can't. Maybe if higher education was free or something, maybe.

Also, this blue State bailout talking point bullshit ,when it's been shown time and time again that it's some of the reddest States who lean most heavily on the government for funding.

This is the first thing that popped up when Googled.

Look at this-

https://wallethub.com/edu/states-most-least-dependent-on-the-federal-government/2700

-and pick out the states you would regard as most indicative of an intuitive order.

Without getting too far into the weeds, tell me why New York, California, Florida, and Illinois shouldn't be right at the bottom of the list?

Better yet, tell me why you think they rank as they do?

Why do you think Montana is as high as it is?

Why is Kansas last?

Does New Jersey's position strike you as at all curious?


While you're at it, take a peek at this:

Why should there be anything in this "relief" bill that is not strictly Covid-related?

[IdolEyes787]

Like most/any other Bills there are always unrelated things attached just to ensure they are passed and usually to the benefit of some politician. Almost a kind of blackmail. I agree that most of those things could/ should have been left out. One that I saw before and is really galling to me is paying funeral expenses for COVID related deaths which is sort of devaluing all the people who died during that period but not from the virus.

Sorry but the State dependency article is a little over my head so I can't really comment on it. Financial stuff is really my kryptonite.

So does that work the same for you considering there are more conservatives in Canada???

I would say your comment is obtuse and ignorant again buddy;).. Or do i owe you an apology , that is not what you meant??

The question always is , how in different States people talk/communicate with you.....

Some states i would say "thank you" and they would say "Ah HuH" now is that rude or is it there way of saying your welcome??

I would say what pops do you have?? And they would look at me like i am nuts!!!.. Then i would correct myself and ask what sodas do you offer?

It is like talking to someone from Newfoundland and if you are on the phone with them i usually have to say pardon about 10 time in a 3 minute conversation :lol:....

I don't play golf, I play cribbage. I used to play cribbage with my father a long time ago. He was the only person that I've come across that played. I've since forgotten how to play myself although I still have the board.

I played Euchre with my parents....

I played a lot of euchre with my buds way back.

Loved it, I remember that.

[j2k4]

I don't fawn over people: I insist on courtesy.

People who do not practice normal courtesy find themselves saying please and thank you when dealing with me.

Again my point was not all American use the words Please and Thank You but they have there terms of endearment with different words/ways.....

And yes the lake is divider, but not a deterrent to keep out friendlies :hug::cheers:

You all live a less purposely-colloquial life than we do, I think.

Tribalisms in search of a lobby proliferate over here - as if we weren't diverse enough.

I'm not widely traveled in Canadiaville, but I really liked the little big-town-ness of Toronto.

Once a day I'd like to walk into that Holiday Inn and have two hundred people turn to greet me anew. :)

I wasn't across the lobby when a fellow invited me to a party up top, "and we're gonna take you to the top of the CN Tower, too..."

Missus J said no. :lol:

[IdolEyes787]

I am waiting for the Left to go after the sport name "Golf" , even know other than Augusta every other golf course is open to both sexes. but not emphasized to transgenders..

I am not sure if i heard it right or not, but there was a man claiming to be a woman in the UFC now:unsure:.....

You should check this movie out Idol, if you haven't yet.....

Was this any good??

186267 Both Wil Smith and the film grew some liberal criticism for having him speak in the language of an unschool Southern black person circa the 1920's if that makes you feel any better.
I have seen Stroke of Genius with the guy from Person of Interest. About all I remember of it is him playing in the British Open.
Didn't know the cycling film existed. Not sure I'd watch as seems to deal with the darker side of people that I'm not a fan of. Anyway I'm sure you've had this happen. You watch a movie about something that you know a lot about in your case probably pedophilia, and the film makers take liberties with it because they are more interested in telling a good story than being factually precise and so you spend a lot of the time going "that's stupid. They would never do that" and it ends up spoiling the entire movie for you.

[j2k4]

I haven't heard any stories that watch better than they read.

[IdolEyes787]

I played a lot of euchre with my buds way back.

Loved it, I remember that. I played a lot of euchre at the cottage in the olden tyme before the internet turned the World to shit.

[Something Else]

I play Go a fair bit. I instantly loved it, the first time I played. It took me to another plaice in another thyme. I also frequent the carom board, but that's more for the disco powder.

[IdolEyes787]

Not missing your point but never heard of carom before now. Seems to be very similar to crokinole.

I think everything can be neatly tied back to Dominion Voting Systems, the Clintons and George Soros.
Also are we absolutely sure that COVID doesn't turn some people into cannibals? I mean, it probably does but all the evidence is likely being buried by the liberal elite.

Fits speculation I have heard, which says the Chinese tried to engineer Covid to include cannibalist tendencies so they could feed the dead to the survivors instead of burying them.

They could have lost several million and no one would ever know.

[IdolEyes787]

Shay, you have a criminal background and know a lot of crooks, I bet you could tell a lot of stories about auto repair fraud. Also probably dismembering the corpses of witnesses but I don't think that would make for funny stories.

I knew a guy that worked at Canadian Tire and he told me that when someone brought in a car and there weren't any problems then they would take a hammer and create some.:blink:

It's funny because it wasn't my car.

[IdolEyes787]

Btw although pennies are legal tender in the US, all businesses still have the right to refuse to take them as payment.

I think that means the CRA would have told you to fuck off.

[IdolEyes787]

I've been working on an obituary for you Shay, in case. Tell me what you think.

Here lies Dick. Not his name but well, you know.

Again it is like a person using slang or saying in different languages of an opposite faith, really who the fuck cares!!!!

If you tell me you like Chicken soup with Matzoh Balls!!!, am i supposes to go after you with rage!!!

There is a big difference between language used and remembering history, and learning from it good or bad idol.....

In anything someone can take misery or negativity out of something, you do it all the time, but you seem to forget the good , even know you claim to be a person of it;)...

And your post #1200

Because of your obtuse ignorance, no one can refuse Canadian currency in Canada, unless it is either written/marked or deemed by law.. Pennies were never deemed unlawful currency until they were taken out of circulation.....The same with the Thousand dollar bill recently (I have a few of them;). Yet, they are still considered currency, the same with any bill or coin removed out of circulation......

So now if i want to pay a bill in nickles, you are fucking right i can do it!!!!.... The same with a bank (as long as it is rolled or the way they accept it)...

I am thinking you may have known that if you actually worked for a living at one time or another ;)...

So why did they bring the car in ??

Now if you weren't an obtuse instigating moron, and said they brought the car in for an oil change and found many more issues that would make sense;)..

I wanted to make sure my facts were right so I Googled "Canadian nickel" and this is what it said.

Nickel: The smallest denomination of currency used in Canada. Usually what a person on social assistance has left in their pocket after paying for food and housing. Also known as the poor man's hundred.

As to the former, it seems odd to report on this 'severing' so thoroughly while failing to recount the specific 'slur' so the reader could entertain the idea as the school district did in reaching it's decision.

A flaw in the ointment, so-to-speak.

To the latter; it only seems to make strategic sense for the Left to erase the history it seems intent on repeating.

I tend to agree with you about the slur. That's why I tried to find further information. So that I could judge for myself. As for "rebroadcasting" the slur, whatever malice there might have been it's in the original intent not in the words themselves.

No, my point stems from the old saw 'those who don't study history are condemned to repeat it.'

Libs have discovered the inconvenience of ignoring history, so they seek to erase it, which frees them to make their mistakes 'anew', you see?
