Staind featuring Ted Nugent covering a song by Daughtry

Wait you’re telling me if I really wanted to I could find Brian “Head” Welch solo records full of Christian Rock? Now I’m intrigued.

Yea, me too. Rocked Korn pretty hard in oh, 97-99, right about the time I was trying to convince my parents I shouldn’t go to church anymore. My dad got laid off right around the time he turned 40 and has an existential crisis and went through a few years of weird Born-Againism. I came THIS close to having to attend

Unfortunately Scientology has considerable power as well. And they like, actually enslave and torture people. Mainstream Christians gave up on that years ago! Strictly speaking from an existential perspective, it’s disheartening and I lose at least a modicum of respect for someone when I find out they’re actively

I only vaguely have any interest in learning the truth about this, but I can only guess that Mr. Head has a drug and/or alcohol problem that Birthing Again helped him overcome? Much like Dave Mustaine  and Alice Cooper? Except far less talented to begin with...

Mike Huckabee has never, EVER dreamed about “sex” let alone for an entire day. His mind’s clean as a shiny new whistle, I tells ya.

Everything recorded before Mustaine went Must-insaine is fair game. As is anything Alice Cooper recorded when he was still a drunk.

The guy who made a lot of money lending to private insurance providers doesn’t want to abolish private health care entirely despite the evidence that it would be the best path forward for the country and the majority of individual taxpayers? WHO COULD HAVE SEEN THIS COMING?

Crystalis is probably still my favorite game of all time. Nostalgia likely has a lot to do with that, but fuck I spent so much time playing that as a kid and I have gone back to it on ROMs over the years and it still holds up.

It’s also disingenuous because Medicaire for All IS the alternative viewpoint. Only in the last 2 or 3 years has it gained even an ounce of mainstream traction. This guy’s dumbass half-measure was already done! This Wonderbread motherfucker doesn’t get that his bullshit isn’t fucking new or novel. It’s the same

The problem as Adams see it is none of those qualities in and of themselves. Dilbert the character is the smart, hardworking Computerman and the boss is evil because he isn’t as smart as Dilbert and doesn’t know anything about computers. Adams’ conservatism is of that slightly libertarian, completely ego-driven

Nnobody has ever said a company should not be making lots of money. The point I think you must be referring to is the argument that as a company becomes more profitable, everybody involved should make more money, not just the people at the top. 

It’s also been routinely discussed how Vampire Weekend basically heard some 70s African rock and said “what a fresh, cool sound brruhhh” and decided they could do that too.

Kimmel was on Conan’s podcast recently and basically said he hates every minute of having a nightly talk show but basically wants the money and doesnt know what he would do after its over. He was always pretty aloof about being a late night host but I think Trump has broken him. 

I just don’t get why DCCC funds are used for primaries. If the incumbent sucks, why would you not want a more electable candidate? They should stay the fuck out of primaries altogether.

I mean is it not fairly obvious here all those “losses” from his casino were the result of paying out money that was intended to be laundered? What an amazing scam. Trump launders dirty Russian mob money by paying out at his casino, then gets to claim losses and pay no taxes as a result.

Because you are paying out winnings intended to launder money. Being able to claim losses as a result is just icing on the cake. 

Wait he is an alien? Jesus Christ.

Oobviously PFT is the ultimate guest and Andy Daly has some of the strongest characters and fleshed out histories, but Will Hines has quietly become one of the all-timers. I was glad to see him get a nod from Scott.

Oh and I think she also frames it around “well this is what Steve Jobs did, to save mental energy. You know, THE Steve Jobs?"
