Well, full disclosure, I knew that drunk driving laws were needed and useful. But I can’t say that I stopped drinking and driving until probably my mid-20s. May be a couple years after. I can say for 30+ years I’ve never driven after I’ve had more than one drink.

These people are idiots, arguing against the law, or, worse, not understanding why we need it. It’s the absolute same mentality of the idiots not understanding why we need gun laws.

They could be trolling in a put on internet thing, afterall. That said there is some guy on my road that tosses beer cans out the window on his way home in the evenings.

That’s cousin Corny! We call him Corny on account of his name being Cornelius and all. Plus, he prit’near died twice in his silo. Dropped right through two stories of corn kernels. We thought he darn near drowned in corn, but Doc said he’d’a been dead from suffocatin and whatnot. But Corny ain’t been right in the head since that second accident kept him from breathing to his brain and all.

An oxygen-deprived brain can sometimes be mistaken for CTE. Just look at Ron DeSantis. He puffs out his chest on the daily and has to hold his breath to keep it puffed out. A brain can’t take that much abuse, much less one as tiny as Florida Ron’s.

Sorry about your cousin Corny, GreenWay. Silo accidents are surprisingly common. Regulators failed Corny and so many others.

Statistically, it more dangerous than mercenary and roofer combined.

Can we gHost back to help AMJ with his story telling? If AMJ was part of the team that raided Bin Laden’s compound he would just say, “I flew in a helicopter in Pakistan once.” That would be it.

AMJ is similar to Ernest Hemingway only on the internet. Not a wasted word as c long as he sticks with the original story. Once he emblishes he is more like Henry James.

Stop defending him, TG. He gets paid to post content here and all we get is “a woman at work brought her dog to the office but then had to stop.” WTF is that? Noting about the dog becoming CFO, or the dog’s affair with sales manager Tina’s dog.

Leaving out the important part where he left the helicopter there.

Have we always been dumb?  Empty Yes, We are this Dumb, Abortion Edition

Post by Trapper Gus 2023-05-09, 08:08

“I think Democrats are pro-life and Republicans are against it,” said one participant in Ohio, when asked what Democrats and Republicans believe on abortion.

In Michigan, a woman was asked how the two parties differ on abortion and how she would describe each party’s position.

“I’m not sure,” the woman answered. “I really haven’t basically heard anything about which party is leaning toward it and which one isn’t.” When the focus group moderator pressed her to guess, she answered: “If I had to guess, I would say Democrat would probably be against it and Republican probably would be for it.”

In North Carolina, a participant said she wasn’t sure where the parties stand on abortion and had been surprised Roe v. Wade was overturned under a Democrat.

“Okay, but did Joe Biden have a say in whether or not it was overturned?” the focus group moderator asked.

“No, but he helped get the Supreme judges where they are.” The moderator then informed the woman that the most recent judges came in under Donald Trump.
