Yep. The missus and I are still in The Gulch. We’ve been working dinner service for a couple of nights, and I’m ready to go back to being retired. On the plus side, the new bar is now in place and much more user friendly.
Links?
England continues it’s descent into insanity.
Canadian gypsies are the worst.
Lyndsey and John look down with approval, while wildly rubbing their war boners together.
Quit promoting commie Popes and boinking the alter boys.
Redfield was a Trump appointee. He wasn’t in any of the incriminating e-mail chains.
Bourbon virus?!? NOOO!!! NOOO!!! Oh, Bourbon County, Kansas.
Okay, that’s it for me. Time to go hawk some more booze and tell the wife she needs to wipe a couple of tables. Peace out, Glibbies.
That’s a handsome bar (although it’d pull it together better if the mirror also had a dark finish).
Thanks for the links, Spud.
(And I enjoyed the song, even if it’s not my normal thing)
I’m not sure about the gray haired umpalumpa behind it though.
Looks shady
That’s just hurtful. He’s not _that_ grey.
It’s like looking in a (different) mirror.
Don’t trust that dude.
The bar kind of ties the room together.
The popcorn on the floor makes a serious ambiance, lacking in lesser places.
I don’t trust myself.
Somehow I still end up giving people the benefit of the doubt.
Two days ago neighbors dog bit me.
He called the cops, on me. Had to preempt me with a false report and have me trespassed. SMH.
Makes me look good.
There ought to be a law…
By some accounts. Legit LOL.
The Catholic church of my youth is Pentecostal now. 😱
My wife is at Mass as I type this.
There has been a resurgence of interest in younger generations in RCC, but the middle has indeed declined.
In my opinion has nothing to do with the current commie pope and more the general rise of secularism.
Less buggery.
More snake bites.
Hear hear!
*Shakes rattlesnake rattle
Nor the scandals, but neither helps.
But yeah I believe the fastest growing religion is “none”. Unless you count “climate” or “DEI” or “‘the science'”.

“When men choose not to believe in God, they do not thereafter believe in nothing, they then become capable of believing in anything.”
(Not us, of course)
And that’s in a solidly middle-class mostly Italian-ethnic suburb. I haven’t been in the neighborhood in 40 years, though.
Yeah, I’ve been hearing that for many years… and I think there might be something to it for a lot of people… just people who aren’t me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Rhy, belief in free will.
See you don’t behave in the god of the Calvinists.
“When men choose not to believe in God, they do not thereafter believe in nothing, they then become capable of believing in anything.”
Holds true for God believers too. Slavery, killing infidels, burning heretics, compassionately opening one’s borders to a billion new immigrants.
I sure do.
But the things I believe in are so self-evidently obvious that I have to wonder what the hell is wrong with people who don’t.
🤨
A link to a Rush song?
Yeah you’re going to hell.
That’s just mean.
See you don’t behave in the god of the Calvinists.
Every sect has its own version of God.
Snakes on a praying
a lot of people… just people who aren’t me.
I think people attracted to this site and libertarianism in general are just a bit different in that regard.
I don’t mean that in a way to pat ourselves on the back. I just think that if you like this philosophy, you understand the responsibility of being in charge of yourself
I submit the enduring unpopularity of our opinions as proof of that.
+ I am comfortable with people who are religious, as long they don’t try to assume power over me.
Yeah, we are weird.
Disbelief in the greatness of Rush though… I have a hard time tolerating that heresy.
I’m not saying that religion is the answer, but the decline of Christianity was a big element of the rise of fascism and communism. Fascism itself inherited Europe’s anti-Semitism, but none of the restraining power that Christianity offered. So you could kill a subhuman Jew without having to worry about any punishment. And as hated as Jews were, they still had a role to play in Christianity.
Nothing grinds my gears more than hearing people talk about the supposed evils perpetrated from religion while so many themselves follow what could fairly be called secular religious dogma.
There’s few wars fought over truly just religion. And don’t get me started on the morons who act like The Crusades were some great historical evil and an example of Christian extremism…
JFC I’m all wore out from packing. I should just pay somebody to do this shit.
Need another Cromwell to sort this shit out.
And for some enterprising Americans to run them ARs
Let Italy have it back. They can have Gaul, err France, too.
I found out today that Wegmans around the country sell Buffalo Bills gear.
Huh. I’ll have to check on our next visit here in Mass
Krogers should sell Bengals gear nationwide.
I know some are big fans of The Critical Drinker here, but I’ve always leaned towards Gary/Nerdrotic. As obnoxious as something such as Friday Night Tights can get with everyone yelling over one another, I don’t know. He’s got the sort of retarded humor I have and seems kind of genuine. He tries to paint that picture.
Chrisse Mayre was one of the 12 or whatever fucking co-hosts of FNT. Was. She got involved in the retarded drama with The Quartering striking down some other channel. Kino Casino boys who seemed kind of cringy from any clips I saw. Not the point. Quartering is a giant douchebag (which didn’t surprise me) who let them talking shit about him (and admittedly his wife and their relationship) who apparently has connections to someone at Youtube. Apparently his rep which they appoint to big channels as I understand it as a mere pleb. They banned a few of their secondary channels with bogus strikes and there was a big fight on it, though I don’t think he’s ever admitted to doing it.
The Quartering had a ‘friend’ in Melanie Mac who was affiliated with FNT and Chrissie. She got involved because she refused to throw Quartering under the bus and supported him. Chrissie had Melanie on her livestream that no one normally watches anyway, and the super chats were all angling for her to go after her despite them being friends. Stream had nothing to do with that controversy, but this blew up into a huge mess for her as she didn’t ever address any of that internet chatter and claimed to not know about it while some other Youtuber was trying to join and private messaging Chrissie.
So Mayre told some dumb lies to justify it all. But the option is basically throw her friend under the bus for something she undoubtedly couldn’t give two fucks about. I genuinely don’t think she had her on to feed off the controversy, but who the fuck cares if she did?
The audience members got up in arms and Gary acted like a bitch putting Chrissie in a “timeout” that was obviously going to be permanent. Officially Chrissie now says she’s off the show.
So it kind of goes against the whole “anti-cancel culture” and pro free speech elements of what FNT claims to support. Though they can hide behind their general opposition to striking down other channels. No one accuses Chrissie of having any part in that. Just not going after Melanie Mac who herself had no actual role in it and just failed to condemn The Quartering as a witch herself.
It’s all rather stupid. But yea FNT caved to the mob and ditched a co-host who wasn’t all that important over a dumb controversy that had their corner of the internet up in arms. Hasn’t hurt the show any, but it still rubs me the wrong way for obvious reasons. Not the least of which it kind of shows how fake these Youtubers are pretending to be actual ‘friends’ with co-hosts. It’s not as bad as like Howie Stern’s fall to whatever the fuck he is now (an old yenta basically, which he used to mock).
Most of the mouth breathers won’t care and will just keep watching. Most people don’t have principles or real devotion to shit.
Do I have a point here? Not much of one. Just e-drama at the end of the day.
Also, Chrissie Mayr: would?
Always had a thing for red heads, but the horse mouth breaks it for me.

Youtubers might make good money, but I refuse to call them celebrities or think of them like that. It’s some asshole in his bedroom with a camera on him. Not that celebrities or celebrity are anything to aspire to in the first place.
