  1. I wonder where we are on the schedule of lefty goalpost moving: 1) Nobody’s eating cats 2) Well, maybe there was a video of someone eating a cat, but it was a white lady 3) Okay, so she is black. But that doesn’t mean she’s an immigrant. 4) So maybe she is an immigrant, but that doesn’t mean she’s a Haitian 5) So what if they found more witnesses that dined with Haitians eating cats? 6) Cat’s aren’t an endangered species, what’s the big deal? 7) They’re just practicing voodoo, an indigenous religion 😎 Cat eating is a protected religious activity. 9) Anyone who’s against eating cats is racist and intolerant and anti-religion Reminds me of the “illegals voting” lefty goalpost. Went from “impossible, can’t happen, that's been conclusively debunked” to “it’s a small number” to “well, it wouldn’t have changed the election results anyway”.
  2. That is an impossibility. How, exactly, did they conclusively debunk it? Unless they have footage of every soul in the town, 24/7 and watching the footage revealed that nobody ate a cat. Do you have a link to that footage?
  3. Can't say I'm surprised. The Dem elite have been cheezed off at him since he publicly revealed that the cost of caring for NYC's 110,000 Harris/Biden "newcomers" is $12 billion over 3 years. That's $36k per head per year. He painted a target on himself when he said the quiet part out loud, and in public. Multiply $36k by 10 million guests of Harris/Biden policies, and we're talking real money... Every year.
  4. Trump does his best campaigning at big outdoor rallies. If they can convince him to quit doing big outdoor rallies, it will help Harris. Is this coming from the same 700 intelligence officers that just endorsed Harris?
  5. Let me guess... Is the discount against some ridiculous list price that nobody except gub'ment officials on a boondoggle would ever pay? Like you could go onto Agoda and get an even bigger discount no matter who you are? Like the shopping malls that offer an 80% "discount" against a price that they jacked up by a factor of 5 yesterday. Or, my favorite sign: Up to 80% off.
  6. Be careful what you wish for. Every time he gets indicted, his poll numbers go up. Most Americans have watched way too many NatGeo and Disc Channel documentaries about the bush meat trade to believe it's not happening, with a 20,000 sample size.
  7. If a pollster called me and asked, I'd never say I was voting for Trump and risk joining Tulsi Gabbard on a terror watch list. You never know who's really on the other end of the phone line.
  8. Dollars to donuts Texas Chicken will reopen once the Thai partner ditches their western partner. They learned all they needed and now it's time to quit splitting the proceeds. It's a familiar story... I wonder what they'll call it?
  9. Having been both a speedboat operator and a rowboat/canoe/kayak operator, I can confirm that rowboats can change direction on a dime, and speedboats can't. It's not unusual for a slow boat to change direction unexpectedly and turn into the path of a speedboat, causing all kinds of problems. (It's the same with bicycles and cars) Regarding the semantics, it's probably an article from a source that's been translated to English, So I wouldn't get bent out of shape over word choice.
  10. That's a great question, and thank you for asking. You know, I grew up in a middle class family, and that's why it's so important to me to focus on stuff that makes life better for the middle class...
  11. Still interested in any other battery shops, but closing the loop here... I found my Lumix battery at Mr Battery on the 2nd floor of Fortune Town, in the same area as the 7/11. It was over twice the online price (650baht vs 260baht), but I'm still all in at $45 for a camera that cost about $500 new. So if you have time to order online, that's the way to go. I used to buy assorted camera batteries on the same floor (the camera floor..), but that shop's gone. They sold mostly Nikon, so it's not surprising they're not there any more.
  12. If it's working 100%, I'd stock a little extra just in case and file that under "stuff I'll worry about when it happens"
  13. When you're a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. When you're a Dem, every problem looks like Russkie collusion.
  14. I'm only in Bangkok for one more day, so Lazada isn't an option. Is there a physical shop that stocks eclectic batteries for cameras? Preferably unlike the one I found in Icon Siam that wanted more for batteries than I paid for the camera... (They didn't have my specific battery anyway.) Lots of choices online, but I need one today. TIA.
  15. That's a negotiating tactic. He'd agree in a heartbeat to a debate on Fox or Rogan. But not to another 3 on 1 from another lefty outlet. If Harris wants another debate, all she has to do is agree to a not so friendly venue. She won't. Her handlers won't let her.
  16. I know nothing about the airline, but when I think "Condor" my mind conjures up images of vultures and death and rotting corpses.
  17. I've got this vision of a couple of activist trans caretakers trying to push their ideology on an entire wing of their facility.
  18. Republicans aren't touching this meme with a 10' pole. This is the wingnuts harvesting clicks. And most of us following are just having a good laugh. It's fun to troll the lefties, though. They take everything so deadly serious... I can just imagine the spittle all over their keyboards as they feverishly bang on those keys.
  19. Yeah. 'Cause the Matthew Perry case (and a zillion others) are proof positive that psychiatrists would never whore themselves for money.
  20. I'm wondering when someone's going to accuse Trump of filling that hole in his ear with an implanted audio earpiece.
  21. I'd be more inclined to believe that the Harris campaign submitted a list of acceptable questions (that she had canned answers for). That way ABC could pinky swear that they didn't provide the answers in advance. And not be prosecuted when the truth comes out. The congressional investigation is going to be good...
  22. I liked Risky Business better of his early stuff. But I was referring to the Mission Impossible and Jack Reacher franchises.
  23. If only it were that simple... https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2022/06/05/mass-shooting-defined-meaning/7481731001/ The definition depends on their political goals.
  24. The Dems may be duplicitous, but they're not stupid. They have the best silversmiths on speed dial and have 700 intelligence "experts" on their side. You don't think that collectively they could have modified the Nova audio earpieces to look like a Tiffany ear ring? Gotta give props to the company behind the audio earpieces. They're making the best of their 15 minutes of fame. Here's how they initially responded to the rumors: {They later changed their website to be more politically correct, but the interweb's wayback machine is forever). "We do not know whether Mrs. Harris wore one of our products. The resemblance is striking and while our product was not specifically developed for the use at presidential debates, it is nonetheless suited for it," Malte Iversen, managing director at Icebach Sound, told Just the News on Wednesday. "To ensure a level playing field for both candidates, we are currently developing a male version and will soon be able to offer it to the Trump campaign. The choice of colour is a bit challenging though as orange does not go well with a lot of colours. Here's the boring version: https://icebachsound.com/press/
  25. 2 weeks ago, would you have believed over 3000 pagers were going to explode at the same time? That's life, imitating art. Making an audio earpiece look like a Tiffany earring is something they can do on Khao San Road...
