Correct! Well done, hedge. But your new interest in religion might not be welcome by your Leftist colleagues. You may want to keep such subversive thoughts to yourself. I would hate to see you lose your sterling reputation among your friends as a religion hater. Your secret is safe with me.

Knowledge of the bible isn't mutually exclusive with hatred of religion. Quite the opposite in my case. Actually, hatred is far too strong a word. Mind-numbing boredom is more like it. Fairy tales about illiterate herdsmen and the things that evidently they found wondrous don't really impress me. Never did...

I always liked how God sends a flood to wipe out the entire planet except for 1 family

and Satan is over here like "and I'm the bad guy"

I’m not admitting to the humor I found in this article.

Natural selection at work.

[Jungle Rat]

I wish they would select you next

[Professor Tiger]

C, at best. Go back to hedge and get some more lessons how to do the “I wish you _____” meme more effectively.

[Jungle Rat]

Why are you so jealous of my dominance? I raised hedge as a pup. Bow down peasant. Claming C only says it hurt.

[Professor Tiger]

Try aricept. It might help you.

I know a woman who was so upset at the election that she moved to Mexico with her 2 kids.
People came out of the woodwork to try to warn her, she cut off family, etc
First 2 days she was on the beach - its great, why didn't I do this sooner. She was back in America begging for a place to live within the week.

I just wonder how many people tried to tell this couple they were fucking up and they got pissy with them for trying to intervene.

solid effort by rat

I always forget to take my aricept

Elizabeth Warren touches on something I've been talking about for a few years

--


Traditionally, she writes in a companion op-ed for the Wall Street Journal, “corporations sought to succeed in the marketplace, but they also recognized their obligations to employees, customers and the community.” In recent decades they stopped, in favor of a singular devotion to enriching shareholders. And that’s what Warren wants to change.

----

I can't imagine what she proposes not being a huge power grab however as a pre-emptive strike against any progressives seeking to win the 2020 nomination

I don't see enough movies in the theater to justify movie pass, even at $10.

I read a story about how the company is in turmoil. Basically it started a business model it couldn't sustain and burned thru cash like crazy when it got wildly popular.

the story ends with this


MoviePass amassed millions of subscribers after it stormed onto the scene last year promising unlimited movies in theaters. But it's down to its last $15 million in cash.

Stock in its parent company, Helios and Matheson (HMNY), was trading at 4 cents Thursday — down from a split-adjusted high of more than $8,000 last fall.

Every time we go to Mexico, the MIF is like "Why do they keep coming to America? Why would anybody want to leave here?" and I'm like "we're in fucking Cozumel, try going to Juarez and see how you feel"...

Well, doesn't she have to live in Wilson, NC or some shit? Understandable.

"I don't see enough movies in the theater to justify movie pass, even at $10."

I knew you were cheap, but not even $10?? Goddamn, that pays for itself with one movie...

[eCat]

its not the money, I just go to a theater maybe 2 or 3 times a year.

This year I've seen Deadpool 2 and I took a group to see Mission Impossible just as a company outing. I don't know of any movies between now and Xmas that I plan on seeing.

Now if I were 22 years old, I'd definitely have a movie pass

same reason I don't buy a pass to Kings Island anymore. I didn't even go last year.

[hedge]

Come on man, the clout alone of being able to flash the pass is worth 10 bucks. I bet Mecca has one. Poppin' collars and movie passes...

One of my buddies who is has been dating and living with this women for several years dropped by the office today. She has been out of town for 2 weeks, he said he hadn't gotten this much pussy since college. Said women our age are out there everywhere on the prowl. He made a circuit from Raleigh to Greenville to Little Washington to Okracoke to Atlantic Beach and then worked his way back to Raleigh. Goddamn, I can't even get the MIF to go out for the evening, much less two weeks. He said one of his hook-up's shaved his balls, I was like, goddamn, isn't your girlfriend going to be suspicious? he was like, I'll deal with it when the time comes, but it was worth it...

I can imagine

Hell, right after my divorce, I was single, good job, no kids. People were going out of their way to set me up. I was getting more ass than a toilet seat.

Didn't last long though. use a condom guys.
