The Confederate Battle Flag was fought under by troops actively trying to kill soldiers flying under the American Flag. That’s reason enough for me to consider it something that should not be celebrated in the US.

For cases like me, I already turn my nose up at the current price of movie tickets coupled with the price of concessions which is why before Movie Pass, I hadn’t been to a theater in years. I honestly think the last movie I saw in a theater was Wedding Crashers before starting Movie Pass last November. Now I don’t…

You can’t ignore morality and it’s connection with the law when so many laws are based on a code of morality like ‘don’t kill people’ and ‘don’t take shit that isn’t yours’ in the first place. Hell, the LAW that says that officers (or any citizen) can use lethal force to kill somebody who is a threat to themselves or…

Why the fuck is initiating a high speed chase warranted in the first place? They had his plates. They knew who he was. Stop by his house the next morning or his job.

I will feel bad for Minnesota but I’m rooting for North Korea’s nuke to take out both teams, Roger and the other NFL owners during the game. Hopefully the nuke isn’t too big and the damage is only complete and total at the stadium. Maybe a partial dud that doesn’t go nuclear but wipes the dome off of the face of the…

They’ve been dead to me ever since they stopped making the cream cheese brownies. Those things were amazing and the only reason I even went to one for lunch. I was OK with the overpriced sandwich in return for the ability to buy a box of the cream cheese brownies.

It is most certainly trickling down. The part they leave out is that the rich are being fed champagne but what trickles down is piss.

Ah, but maybe that’s the problem. The whitest states are saying their crime and such dropped. Sessions is just smarter than us and knows that weed has the opposite effect on black and brown people.

I already have the first two of the three covered. I rarely cook and I weigh a little over 300 pounds even though it doesn’t look like it (did recently start going to the gym and paid for a few sessions with a personal trainer to fix that). I turn 40 in May so dying young is still on the table depending on one’s…

Yep, definitely rooting for Jacksonville even more now. The next few weeks are going to be rough at work when the Patriots win. I’m the only one in my group not based in Boston so at least I will only have to hear about it once or twice a day on calls.

This obsession with ‘elevating’ simple, good food so they can charge three times what it is worth is complete bullshit. That and ‘deconstructed’ anything.

Of all the teams in the NL Central, I would LOVE for the Pirates to spend some money to field a better team and pack the stadium. I would much rather see their fans enjoy being on top of the division than any other fanbase. The fans in Pittsburgh deserve much better than they are getting right now. At least they got…

Bring it on. Lion’s Choice for life!!! Of course Lion’s Choice is only in the St. Louis Metro area. Love that medium rare (leaning towards rare but not as rare as the picture makes it look) roast beef.

In my 20s a friend and I would play 4 or 5 rounds a month but in the past few years, that’s gone downhill and I only get out for the company tournament every June. I’d probably cry when I looked at my score if I played a round completely sober these days. I was never very good even when I played regularly and my…

Getting bombed AFTER the 18th hole? You aren’t doing it right. Granted, I only play once a year these days and that is in a company tournament but myself and my team are generally bombed by our 9th hole. We do a shot to start the round. We do a shot for every birdie. If we go more than two holes without a birdie or…

Nowhere did Ortiz say it was the greatest job in the world. The key is “Around these parts.” If Ortiz was writing about a baseball team’s annual fan event in Chicago, would saying, “Around these parts, there is no greater job title than Chicago Cub”?

I worked at Fazoli’s during high school and there was a guy who would come in three or four times a week and always order the exact same thing. It didn’t take long to realize that is all he was ever going to order so when I was on the steam table, I would have his order ready as he stepped up to the register. The…

Airflow is a funny thing. I once drove about 20 miles before realizing that the gas cap was sitting on the back of the hatch of my ‘86 Z28. I have no idea how it managed to stay on there especially as I got off of the highway and turned into another gas station to put it back where it belonged.

I managed the final 200 yards down a small local slope once after losing a ski and it was terrifying. I wish I’d gone down within the first seconds but I was going to fast and couldn’t come up with a decent plan to bail. Instead the only thing I could do was try to stay up until I got to the bottom where everything…

And your last point brings up another HUGE beef I have with this shit. Funding infrastructure helps everybody and creates working class jobs to build the infrastructure. That theoretical $4k that a family gets and spends on a TV and microwave is probably going to be purchased at a big box store where the profits all…
