was it a subtle dig at ku, sure.  did it hurt insecure ku fans online, yeah it did.

I'm doing just fine, buddy. I think it makes KSU Athletics look insecure.

The New Joe Montgomery Birther Pit / Re: Joe's Extremely Aggressive Dog(s)

« on: Today at 02:51:40 PM »

My grandpa killed a dog that bit me when I was a toddler. More accurately it kind of mauled me and I have scars on my face from it. I don't care to dive into the details of Noem's case (or debate how my grandpa managed his dog) but I don't think farmers killing dogs is quite as uncommon as the reaction makes it seem.

She wasn't exactly a farmer

She sounds like more of a hobby rancher in the Land of the Cheap. But the optics of it are crap. Yes, cats kind of suck. But anyone who can't connect with a dog is a sociopath, IMO. I also recognize that rural types sometimes view dogs as mere property that they can dispose of willy-nilly. I, and many Americans, do not share that viewpoint.

I guess this could go into 3 different threads but given we were talking about it here, I guess it fits.

K-State Athletics is being a bit Tom Petty, here. It's an unnecessary comment, and as Goff explained to Fitz, the bonds were actually federal dollars, so, mostly paid by California, Texas, New York, etc. (I will continue to pretend they are dollars directly out of your Kansan pockets, though.)

tough day for Melania

thought we would see more of her using her command of multiple languages to help Trump out on the campaign trail by now

anxious to see what American Family Radio's take on the testimony will be

  Nice callback.

Also, prepare for an ungodly number of Buc-ees billboards everywhere. Holy crap do they love billboards. They seem to have a decent ad agency, though. Some are pretty cheeky.

The number of people that wear branded merchandise from a rough ridin' gas station is a testament to their marketing.

Quiktrips merch is actually fire tho. https://quiktripshop.com/

Why the hell would I buy this crap?

So you can blend in with all the other tourists.

Is there a lot of QuikTrip tourism?

"I can neither confirm nor deny that I have met kim jung un"

That's the weirdest part. You are asked a direct question. You respond with "When we discovered the issue we removed it from the book." When asked the same direct question again, you respond "I don't discuss my conversations with world leaders."

Also, she managed to read the whole book for the audiobook recording and didn't become aware of the issue until the press started asking questions.

lmao

Also, I'm certain that the King Jong-Un copies have already been printed and distributed. Might those become collectible? Eh, probably not.

Voting for someone who isn’t an obvious narcissist, an obvious liar, and obviously has no interest in anyone’s benefit other than his own.

Because of my feelings.

Does this strike you as odd somehow? El Arroyo is a Tex-Mex place in Austin that is known for their cheeky signs (marquees? kayos?). It seems like a viral marketing thing, because I've seen these kinds of posts quite a few times on the internet. Of course, I've also seen them in person a lot.

I had a Lombardi yesterday. Will start keeping track of how much clams spends because they are $15 a pop. 

That's a lot of clams.

Also, 'clams is driving a ton of business there. Do we know he doesn't have a financial stake in the operation?

Actual LOL if that's real.

W/r/t Noem's book, it's a bit ironic that they're issuing a retraction in "No Going Back."

Wait, frogs eat mice?!

I fell down a "Pac Man frog" feeding compilation rabbit hole on youtube a couple of years ago.  I'm still slightly haunted by it.

What the hell do those words mean?

Narcissists can never be wrong. It’s weakness.

I think that the % of narcissists in politics must be multiples higher than other professions, which sucks because potentially great public servants don't want anything to do with that shitshow. So we get what we have now.

As for me personally, I view admitting wrongness as a strength. Makes you appear more credible, IMO.
