Their cars are stuck in a time when they had no competition and when Tesla has updated them (Model 3 last year) it didn’t move the numbers because their updates were insignificant and the growing number of competitors are better.

He does because it works for him.  Tesla’s stock price has been propped up by hopes, dreams, and Elon’s big promises for years now.  The market has yet to really punish him for it.

And it really sucks. I was very close to pulling the trigger on a Model 3 until he started showing his whole ass after the Twitter purchase. I guess I could buy used. Lord knows they’re cheap enough now.

We’ve been supporting him with tax dollars for years.

Sadly, now as a nation we all get to support him with our tax dollars and natural treasure that’s going to steal/funnel/appropriate into his pocketbook via all his contacts and contracts. The money he loses in Tesla sales will be little more than a rounding error.

I hope I don’t either. But I’m not sure. Much like Nickelback albums, someone is buying them.  Statistically, some of them are people I know.

“he did not disclose his political identity to the authorities”

What the hell is he doing driving himself? He’s a sitting US senator and a stroke survivor. Hire a driver, JF. You’re a millionaire. You can afford it.

Artificial insemination generally is looked at the sperm donor isn’t the father, and thus the children aren’t entitled to any privileges associated from that.  Home sperm donation, either live or turkey baster, doesn’t afford this separation.

He’s *77* and served in the Navy. “Filing papers” is NOT his problem at this point. It wasn’t even required back then in all likelihood since his parents were citizens. I am going to bet he has had a social security number his whole life too. He’s a citizen, full stop. This is first rate petty bureaucratic bullshit…

Any laws with a whiff of religious origin need to be scrubbed from the books.

This means O’Connor is a citizen. He’s voted, paid taxes and has a social security number

They call that “blowback”.

It doesn’t. There are other sections in the linked laws for if the parents are out of wedlock where the baby can still have citizenship, there’s just more requirements about how long they lived in the US for.

More than half the country doesn’t have a passport - IIRC it’s at 42% do currently. Up from 15% pre-9/11.

He doesn’t have a US passport? The whole conversation would’ve ended then and there. 

The Tennessee DMV first got suspicious when they heard his accent, and knew he must be a layaboat. Now they’ll kick him oat!

I’d say we have a winner in the Brutally Funny category.  Just too good.

Any gas station within half a mile of an interstate highway in the south. The incessant smell of pee, pot and gasoline, the humid stickiness of everything you touch, the questionable characters hanging out in the energy-drink bottle littered parking lot, and the cashier barricaded behind milky plexiglass selling lotto…

you just wanted to post the TRD buttplug again, eh
