James Comey being investigated by the Secret Service

[Healing]

Comey’s new book is about a right wing radio talk show host who urges his followers to “do something” about liberal politicians, media personalities and intellectuals. His followers obliged by attacking and killing his foes.

I mean, this happened, except it was every right wing radio/podcast/fox host plus …. the president of the US. It’s like a Law & Order “ripped from the headlines” episode.

The fuck your feelings crowd so desperately wants validation for their feelings. They especially want validation their not so comfortable feelings are the fault of “others”.

40-50% of society desperately needs an external locus of control for damn near everything. Life can be scary, and some folks simply can’t cope.

So, his book wasn’t about left or Liberal radio talk show hosts encouraging their followers to “do something” about right-wingers or “conservatives.”

Context matters. We are anonymous posters on a semi private message board. Your comment was not widely published by the former director of the FBI directed towards POTUS - who has had two assassination attempts against him during the last 10 months.

Let's put the 86 thing to the ultimate test.

I vote we 86 Ramrouser from the board.

Ramrouser should now feel compelled to make a fool of himself and report me to the mods for suggesting someone take him 8 miles out of town and bury him 6 feet under.

Wouldn’t that be Deep-Sixing him? Nonetheless, would appreciate you guys not putting us in the position of having to arbitrate the question of the understanding of 86-ing someone. My husband is convinced everyone knows it is mob-speak for murder. I thought that was deep six, not 86. But TBH I think many of those 8646 posts I added earlier do look like they intended more than impeaching Biden but that is not how I generally understood them.

Still, seriously, given that we’ve had a positive response to our request to restrain language implying political violence, would appreciate not asking us to moderate this question in this way.

How about we all agree it just applies to pickles?

86 does NOT mean to kill someone.

I’d venture that the first time I ever heard it the phrase was, “86 Arroz con Pollo!”

 

[DiehardHeelFan]

From roughly the 2:50 mark to the 3:10 mark. Seriously doubt 86 is referencing murder.

 

[ChileG]

I wasn’t aware Comey was in the restaurant industry. I seem to recall that he spent his career in law enforcement.

By your logic, you must have killed for the mob.

Did the talk show host use the term “86?”

86 does NOT mean to kill someone.

Would be the first time I've heard it used that way. Like I said earlier, I bet it's the seashells that's making it more ominous. After all, they were once living things and now look at them lying there all dead and sending a message. I'd even put it right up there with putting a horse head in someone's bed.

I found this important piece of research

Well now we know where Ramrouser got his talking points from.

I think everyone with 2 brain cells already knew that he got it from right-wing media.

I don't know why y'all engage with him, he's fundamentally stupid plus he's brainwashed by propaganda...do y'all really think he's ever going to have a rational thought based in facts? Of course not.

How the hell can you be out of arroz or pollo?

Or maybe that is ramrouser….

You could be out of the combination. Or you could have arroz and pollo but that doesn't much if it's uncooked.

Slack day prep cook. That pollo had to be cooked beginning first thing in the morning in great big pots. Then it had to sit in the walk-in for a couple of hours to cool down. Next was to "Pick the Chicken," i.e. debone it. This was often done when the chicken was still uncomfortably hot and would be the thing that might keep a day prep cook around much longer than they cared and after the evening cooks had arrived. Here I am referring to how things went at Tijuana Fats where I eventually held every job, including day prep. Truly hated "Picking Chicken."
