Maybe, but no gun legislation will ever keep a gun out of a criminal’s hand - only a law abiding citizen’s. That is the problem I have with *most* gun laws.

This really is a great article. Well laid out and written. But, alas, I cannot resist being snarky about living in Texas and riding year-round. Yes, today, I am that asshole.

Occam’s razor: Marriage does not kill an organism while abortion does?

I’ve seen a Hell’s Angels and a Banditos club house both in Germany. HA is near Frankenstein, Banditos was in Stuttgart.

That was definitely funny.

For the folks who don’t know, OMG, in this instance, stands for “Outlaw Motorcycle Gang”

What? How? I’m only 6’2” (albeit mostly legs, 36”-38” inseam depending) and I rented one of those in Germany and my knees surrounded the wheel. I was utterly cramped. My knees/legs were making contact with the dash/firewall/bulkhead/whatever.

I’ve got a pair of 22 year old Red Wing work boots that have been resoled twice and had a split seam repaired once. The boots were a gift and I’ve put about $100 into their repairs. It is a frugal thing, not a 1% thing.
Also, I now wear cowboy boots daily (long story: military base + motorcyclist = boot requirement,…

Why did this story immediately remind me of Playing for Pizza?

As a man who has had his own child aborted and got zero say in the matter, you and your 66 stars can kiss my ass.

There is a world of difference between Holy Matrimony (ie. Biblical marriage) and a contractual agreement between two people (state sanctioned marriage). Somehow we need to divorce the two definitions. The state should not be involved in Holy Matrimony and the Church should not be involved in interpersonal contracts…

She certainly doesn’t look 64 years old in that photo!

This is exactly why I will never buy any of his PPV events. Nor will I go to a business/bar that purchased it. The only “power” I have over this little, unrepentant shit is with my wallet.

Actually, cheetahs are easily domesticated. They were kept as pets to hunt with for millennia. It wasn’t until the Brits colonized the world and said, “you hunt with dogs, not cheetahs, silly” that the practice died off.

Meh. You don’t understand. I get it. I provided a different prospective and you failed to see it/care. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I said nothing of the thing. I said, “every one of them regret not having sex on the honeymoon.” I placed zero “blame”. All of the previous comments in the thread were “it was no big deal”. I guarantee you, it was a deal (big or not, I don’t know, but the guy has thought about it/regretted it).

Just hopping into this thread to put a male perspective on it. I believe you are all naive if you think your husband doesn’t begrudge not having had fun sexy times on your honeymoon. Sure, he had a great time adventuring. Sure, the sunburn sucked. Yep, a boogie board to the mouth is irritating. But men, for the most…

Showing my Iowa roots: damn, I miss truck and tractor pulls! I couldn’t give two shits about monster trucks. Living in the south now, I don’t get to experience the old Midwestern redneck “sports” anymore. The county fair had tractor pulls, truck pulls, combine demolition derby, car demolition derby, flat track…

I chugged a bottle of that when I was two and got my stomach pumped. Good times. My mom likes to remind me of that.

I miss CART so much! The IRL is lame. No driver there has won anything (other than IRL). I can't get into F1. I tried. I went to a couple races when I lived in Germany. Too snooty. I like the NASCAR atmosphere and mentality, but the racing is a snoozer. Bring back good open wheel (paved) racing!

Winged sprint car…

Since when is retirement a requirement? My grandparents all worked until their deaths. My parents will, too. The same can be said for my aunts and uncles. My family was/is decidedly "working class".
