“Look at me! I’m presidenting!”

Am I the only one that thinks Bannon looks like he’d be a great protagonist for a Bukowski novel?

That’s a pretty big mistake to make. Also, remorse requires contrition, which you show none of.

Well, he is employed by Duke, which is a plantation school.

Best de-smell tip I got was from Martha Stewart: stainless steel. After you’re done chopping, run water over your blade and carefully rub your fingers along the top, unsharpened part of the knife. It’s freaking magic.

Totally. Armangac or nothing.

You sound like fun and not at all pretentious. What? You mean this wine DIDN’T get it’s minerality from loamy French soil and instead from loamy Spanish soil? DILETTANTE.

If you’re in San Francisco, check out Bar Crudo. I mean, there are tons of places to get seafood and oysters in the Bay Area, but Crudo had an incredible happy hour with a nice Alsatian white (or maybe it was a vinho verde) by the glass for like $5, dollar oysters, and dollar mussels that were cooked with some kind of…

Yeah, but the sugar content is pretty high.

Yeah, but the sugar content is pretty high.

That’s a horrible idea. It violates trust in a really profound way and it smothers communication. It’s a much better and much more mature idea to break things off, let her do her thing, he does his thing, and they agree to talk about their respective experiences and whether they were happier in a relationship together…

I ran a similarly influenced season in a fantasy football league one year. My roommate and I got ripped and decided to make all draft, trade, and bench/play decisions while completely baked out of our gourds. It did not end well, but we did manage to end up with a better win percentage than these Knicks.

This isn’t a question of if the correction will come, but when. Hell, even Goldman Sachs said they only expect this to continue until like March (but you can bet they’re paring back their equity exposure as we speak, either with outright selling or options).

As a Warriors fan, I’d love to see Melo go to the Cavs. Anthony refuses to play defense and just fucking LOVES to shoot the ball. There’s no way he and LeBron could ever see eye to eye. The infighting would cripple the team and the salary commitments to Melo would handicap the Cavs roster until the end of the 2022…

Fistfuck? Ass-blast? Heinous ratfuck pile? I’m just spitballing here.

To be fair, a lot of the subsequent FF games have paled in comparison to VI in a lot of ways. VII was spectacular and the game systems never felt like an impediment the way the magic system felt in VIII, which, in hindsight, really killed my interest in the franchise for quite a while.

In the two comment threads I’ve seen you in, I’ve decided that I like you very much.

Normally I’d push back against this kind of pile on, but in this case, you deserve it. Your argument rests on untruth and proceeds poorly from there, for all the reasons laid out. No other nation had nukes when we used ours. The development of modern nuclear strategy began after we dropped those two on Japan. No…

I dunno, I think you could make a pretty strong case for Terra being the protagonist of FFVI. Everyone has their storyline, for sure, but the whole game hinges on Terra and she’s the literal bridge between all the factions involved in the central conflict (first the rebels vs. the empire, then humans vs. espers). Then…

Then explain this guy:

I...uh...I never thought I’d say that I enjoyed anything Ted Cruz did, but here we are: Trump is president, Indiana isn’t a frozen hellscape this winter, and Ted Cruz did something funny. This is truly the end of times.
