Pro tip: buy all of your shit a couple days after the holiday. Bored-ass folks in the store will start making up discounts just to unload some stock. After a weekend in Ogunquit a couple years ago I walked out of the store with so much kablooey that I still have some goodies left. Plus a couple t-shirts and pint…

Easy fix: Rebrand and keep the manchild away from it.

I’ve worked at bases all over the world and I can say that the Filipino folks contracting for AAFES or the DoD are some of the nicest, most helpful people you will run into.

There’s a (broad brush) reason for this: Men outnumber women in the military about 3 to 1. This gives even the least attractive, least intelligent, most toxic women a hotness handicap. An Orange County “3" is a Fort Liberty “10". That, and male GIs will stick it in anything with bewbs and a hoo-ha.

And we know that Dr. Johnson Jackson whateverthefuck LOVES to hand out pills.

Dad took me to Supercross at the LA Coliseum when I was about 5. The Big Stunt between heats was a dude on a chopper with a hang glider who jumped from the top of the coliseum down to the track. In anticipation of the stunt I thought I was about to witness the birth of a new form of transportation.

This would have been so much better with an explosion.

“Brokeback Dictators” plot synopsis:

Well the Republican frontrunner is a convicted felon, so...

I’m waiting for a Qanon reality show where we tell them they’ll find The Truth by making toast in the bathtub.

I believe the argument is “because they are”

Oh sure, Jake Gyllenhal shouldn’t have played Prince of Persia, but a gay woman can play an anti-gay anti-trans arsehole?

Maybe we’ll get lucky and the Dipshit Orange Man’s heart will explode from all the Smart Brain Pills that Dr. Ronny Feelgood gives him.

They have a different level of acceptable public risk.

I watched a few episodes of this while working in a hotel room and I just didn’t last. These Superheroes don’t actually do ANYTHING besides being horrible and being “superheroes”. So I guess the parallels with the real life conservativism are apt...

Golden Ballfield has his finger on the pulse of the Giz. Fantastic screenname, BTW.

Most of their issues happened whilst trying to charge the bikes outdoors, overnight, in the cold, in southern Chile. I don’t even ride my Energica in the winter; that’s what my poseur ADV bike is for (yes, I bought a Bimmer GS after watching LWR).

The ONLY downside to no more Jones is: what will happen to the Knowledge Fight podcast? I love those guys.

Long Way Up is a lesson in mitigating range anxiety.

Anytime I hear “Coffee & TV” by Blur I feel the need to stop being such a pansie-arsed asrsehole and just get on with it. BTW, when Prime or whoever bought it they stripped out the original score and replaced it with garbage uncopyrighted music.
