    Politics Iran Catch-All | IRAN WAR

    Those cars were all pieces of crap and they even looked horrible. The Pinto was famous for catching on fire if it was hit in the back by another vehicle, even just enough to cause slight damage. I'm just old enough to remember the oil embargo and gas stations putting handwritten cardboard signs...

    Sports College Basketball 2025-26 Season Thread

    Had he stayed at State he would likely have built a pretty consistent program there, and they would have far more wins than they've gotten since he left. They likely never would have been a power program under Herb, but they would have been consistently competitive and made the NCAA tourney most...

    Politics Iran Catch-All | IRAN WAR

    Agree completely, except that Trump TACOing this time won't necessarily help right away, as the mess we've created this time is going to take longer to recover from. Now that Iran knows it can disrupt our oil supplies and hurt our economy they'll likely continue doing so to bring pain to Dear...

    Yeah, with Tuberville and Markwayne leaving the Senate she's definitely in the running for the dubious honor of dumbest Senator.

    Sports College Basketball 2025-26 Season Thread

    TBH I always liked Lefty, although I don't think he was all that ethical in some respects and I certainly wouldn't have wanted him at UNC. I mainly liked him because he was a real character and had some pretty funny quotes back in the day. I still remember him getting mad and stomping around the...

    Barry Jacob's The ACC Basketball Handbook was money. I used to love reading through that thing back in the day.

    Politics The Trump cult

    There's no way in hell that Trump isn't the lowest person on that list - below Biden, Ford, and all of them. He's always been as ignorant, shallow, dumb, and lacking in critical thinking skills as anyone who has been in politics. His only real skills lie in his instinct for bringing attention to...

    Politics Iran Catch-All | IRAN WAR

    It's like watching spoiled five-year-old boys playing a violent combat video game in their parent's basement. Except that these are real people we're killing and blowing up - not that they seem to care or notice.

    Politics 2026 Midterm Elections

    So I guess ol'Phil has reached the FAFO karma phase. Having said that, I still wouldn't rule out that s.o.b. somehow finding the votes/disqualifying the votes he needs to win. He's as ruthless and devious as they come in politics, he has no ethics whatsoever, and he's made many powerful and...

    UNC Sports Biorhythms for UNC @dook: 6:30 Start

    Can't speak for other seasons, but for this season if we had Seth, Veesaar, and Caleb healthy for the entire season then I think we'd have at least one other win under our belt and would be playing like a Top 10 team by this point, even if we weren't ranked quite that high. Of course that's just...

    Politics IEDs thrown at anti-Islam/ anti-Mandami rally @ Gracie Mansion

    There is no doubt in my mind that, at a minimum, at least two-thirds of all Republicans, and likely more, would gladly and enthusiastically support deporting every single Muslim in the US, and by force if necessary. America's growing diversity terrifies most of them, and getting rid of American...

    Politics CURRENT EVENTS General | March

    People who are MAGA today are the ones who saw Obama's first election and didn't feel optimistic, they felt anger and even fear that the America they knew was changing in ways they didn't like, and that people like them might not be running things in the future. And that led directly to Trump...

    Politics CURRENT EVENTS General | March

    It's not just Muslims, these people hate diversity of almost any kind. They still want an America that looks like the cast of a 1950s/1960s sitcom - all smiling, happy, middle-class white people who look alike, dress alike, and think alike. Not that the country was ever really like that, even in...

    DOGE cutting the National Weather Service was such a brilliant effing idea - no one could have seen this coming! And sadly I doubt that these people will be the last to die thanks to all of these cuts.

    Politics Shit Trump Says 💩

    This Religious Right/End Times/Rapture bullshit is going to be the death of the country, including the dummies who honestly think that Jesus is going to call them all up into heaven when they're following a fake version of his teachings and blindly following a man who is the exact opposite of...
