Conservatives on this issue/the dress code: “No, not like that...”

“The best was a local celebrity who apparently swallowed Barbie Doll heads because he enjoyed passing them.”

I’ll assume alcohol was involved. Not really sure how else you’d miss or ignore the multiple warnings, both audible and visual, as well as the giant ass outside air and noise now present in the vehicle.

The next two months in the South are going to be an utter shit show.

You have to do what I do, lock myself in my room when they visit (because my wife is apparently unconcerned and unwilling to tell them not to), and actively decline any and all trips to see any of them. It sucks, and it may one day cause a rift in our marriage, but I only get one shot at life and I’m not going to…

Belief bias.

Counterpoint: Fuck other people. I’m not engaging and waiting to find out just how big of an asshole they are. The upside is not worth it.

Exactly. For a party that believes in local control, they sure don’t seem to believe in local control, do they? Authoritarian fascists gonna fascist.

They’ll get re-elected, absolutely. My in-laws have had multiple family members with Covid still unable to taste or smell almost a year later, some with chronic fatigue, and some of their long-time friends have died. It doesn’t matter to them who is responsible because they still constantly shit on democrats and…

So then every member of congress ever put in congress is guilty of 18 U.S.C. § 1001, correct?

I dunno about “nobody will ever remember”. I fully understand there’s no such thing as ethical consumption in American capitalism, and I’ve been paying for and playing Blizzard games for 20 years so I’m complicit. Even thinking about playing now after all of this leaves me feeling incredibly icky. I know my withdrawal…

Mazepin’s been pretty busy spinning off on his own and damaging his own car for the most part so far.

You mean like the coastal elites the conservative party currently idolizes?

Those questions you posed are NOT ridiculous to any reasonable person, as any reasonable person should be thinking the exact same things. You’re spot on.

Have you seen this country?

My wife’s 2014 Lincoln MKZ 2.0L, making 141 hp and 129 lb-ft in a car weighing 4000 lbs with passengers. That engine is not only loud, but it’s a dog and takes far too long to get up to any reasonable passing speed on any highway. I tried to discourage her from that car, but she wanted the large moon roof and the…

Exactly, if they were actually pro life then most of them wouldn’t also be pro death penalty/execution. The only thing they actually stand for is telling other people what to do at all times.

All of the “people that voted R don’t like how the Republicans handled the Big Lie and Jan 6 and either switch their vote or just don’t vote because they refuse to vote for either party” aren’t real. If there’s anything at all republicans, conservatives and assholes are good at it’s doubling down.

Are we actually learning about it now, though? I don’t know about you, but I just assumed all of it to be the case at the time. I mean anything they said was a lie, and their worst intentions were always the reality, so I just assumed that all of these horrible things were facts and actually happening.

And Italian satellites.
