Religion is just the convenient justification for the feud over who gets what land. If it wasn’t religion, it’d be politics. Or race. Or ethnicity. Or class. Or any of the million other things humans have killed each other over for hundreds of thousands of years.

She lost the election. To a fucking nincompoop. She WASN’T inspiring enough.

Right or wrong, there will never be any serious gun control in America. There are entire swaths of the country that care more for their guns than literally any other kind of freedom.

I was watching some sort of feature about Eddie Alvarez. He had a nice home. A couple of nice cars. For a moment, I thought to myself, “Maybe these guys have it better than I thought.” But then I realized his home was probably around $700,000-$1,000,000, which he can afford now, while he’s still fighting. But, in five…

Exactly. Some people say that the UFC takes better care of its undercard fighters “at least” but I’m not really sure that’s true. I find it hard to believe that an undercard boxer on a major card is making less that $4,000. 

Good points.

Yeah, that’s my point. UFC is a legitimate “big league” promotion. It has a major TV deal with a major sports station. It’s got a multi-million sponsorship deal with Reebok. It’s got significant PPV revenue. Etc.

You and Bix are correct. I totally made that up. For no reason at all. To make some stupid point that maybe 20 people will see.

I’m telling you....

Yep. I’m getting too old for this shit. And I’m getting too old to ignore my own hypocrisy in supporting it.

Yeah, I’m not sure where Bixenspan gets this idea that Professional Wrestling is more culturally effusive these days. Even 10 years ago, people I worked with who don’t watch wrestling would know Cena, Randy Orton or even Seamus. But nobody I work with these days knows Seth Rollins or Balor or Kingston. I guess people…

Thing is, now that you mention it, diarrhea is my go-to excuse when I’m playing hooky from work, because people just sort of get grossed out and accept it and don’t ask anymore questions. Everybody’s been there, everybody knows how miserable it is. Not only do they not question you, they pity you, and they even…

Obviously they meet up in Temecula. 

Purchasing a car different from most other financial investments, because it is a terrible investment, because it begins to depreciate the moment you drive it off the lot. So you take out a loan (go into debt) for money you will never, ever see again. It’s not like buying a house. It’s not like buying an education.…

Yeah, but...I have a hard time seeing how these floating, artificial space stations are going to have more resources than even a highly damaged Earth. So the moon has lots of minerals, but, you know, what about plants and air and shit?

Right. Living in Colorado, we’re pretty blue at this point. Between the yuppies in Denver/Boulder/Fort Collins and the Rich Liberal-types (typically East Coast Blue Blood types) in the Mountain towns, there are a lot of democrats. Conservative stalwarts are now mostly confined to Colorado Springs and and the rural…

Talent and depth-wise, sure the Nugs are genuinely better than Portland. The problem is the Nuggets are young, inexperienced and a bit inconsistent. They probably won’t blow any team away in a series...yet. And, like against the Spurs, they’re liable to get into shooting slumps and defensive lapses that extend series…

Yeah, for the past 40 years being the “adults” in the room has cost this country its entire middle class. 

I’m originally from Denver. I live in Pueblo for the moment. But, yeah, Hancock--another moderate Republican who’s got a bunch of the liberals fooled. I wonder how many homeless people he got locked up on prostitution or soliciting charges while his name is on the guest list of what was once the most prominent brothel…

This man was a scourge on poor minorities as both mayor and governor. But, you know, the hipsters got their craft beers and burgers in LoDo, so all was good.
