dammit, sneaky filter...

I meant ar$e

Most of us have the profanity filter turned off. Join us.

I was genuinely not aware of this option, thank you for enlightening me.  (Although I do enjoy seeing some of the replacements for naughty words)

When the British spell "erm" when they mean "um"

Along these lines, when Americans use "ass" in a tweet or a blog instead of "ass" because for some reason they think "ass" is vulgar but "ass" is somehow not?

Anyone ever heard Trump actually discuss a policy detail?

What part of "There's tremendous amounts of things and numbers of things you can do" don't you understand?

40 years ago Kornheiser would have said "Georgetown, Indiana and UCLA" there and he would have been wrong then too.

It's time for some new blood at the top anyways.

Rivian R2 just announced for 2026. I might put an order in. 2 more years on my 2019 Tesla and closer to battery warranty. I'll most likely still have very low mileage so who knows if i'll pull the trigger. They look pretty sweet though.

The R3 is perfect for me

Yeah me too...it's got a little bit of the Lancia Delta Integrale to it which I always thought was a handsome car.

He has another quote about how black people aren't owed reparations, but should be paying them.

this is the political equivalent of uploading a video of yourself pretending to be blown away listening to Free Bird for the first time.

ooh, yeah.  x-post to pet peeves thread on this one.

I have a 2019 Tesla that has under 30k miles on it. Working from home so I drive like 1 mile per day mostly. I'm hoping it last another 5 or so and it will be my kids first car, but we will see. I was hoping it would just be driving them around itself by the time my kids could drive but Elon went bonkers and bought twitter instead.

Yeah, I have a 2018 and while I finally got the heat replaced here in Canadia, having it go out really soured me even more beyond just ol Musk. I really want to see what the Ford T3 is, or if they'll make like an electric Maverick. Or I'll go with a Kia EV6/similar. With Tesla opening up their supercharger network/winning the NACS vs CCS, while a great move for everyone, also to me takes the last sort of advantage they had. And that is with their Highland Model 3 getting actually good reviews on build quality/drive quality improvements. I'll almost certainly be going elsewhere when I make the change (2025 or 2026).

I will also say though, their service center in Saskatoon kicked ass on helping me with getting the heat fixed, I am very appreciative of them.

I'll prob look elsewhere as well, but I don't have any complaints with my car outside of the jinx I just gave myself. I'd love to go Rivian, but I just can't bring myself to spend that much money on a vehicle. I'm def staying EV so it will just depend on what else is out there. The main appeal to Tesla for me was that they built a normal/good looking car as opposed to the other companies that think an EV needs to look like my kid designed it from a lego set or a sci fi movie. I'm convinced none of the other companies want to sell them so they put out these shitty looking things only to say they tried. Just make a normal looking EV you dumbasses!

Hazy smoky skies in KC yesterday confirm this.  Had someone come in to my office yesterday to warn me that she thought something in the building was on fire and I had to tell her "nope...it's just Kansas farmers".   :Carl:

Dax, can you create a new thread for this scrolling thing you are doing here?

you are really unnecessarily mucking up the Zero Hedge thread

Whoever added the /move tags to this blog should be fired...into the sun.

In early January Herman Miller had a 20% off sale going for Aerons and so I finally decided to get one. It took about a month to ship but I got all the customizations that I've been looking at for a while. Figured if I was gonna drop $1700 I might as well get everything I want. First full day sitting in it and I like it. The adjustable lumbar support and the adjustable lean back are probably my favorite so far. I think when it gets super hot this summer I will appreciate the mesh more, my leather chair was always hot af in the summer.

I got a Herman Miller task chair about a year ago and I like it!

Montreal is nice. Best to have your hotel in (or walkable to) the old quarter, though they more pricey. Bagels are amazing, and they have their own amazing pastrami ("smoked meat"). Walk up Mount Royal; it's a lovely park. I really love Quebec City, too, if you can swing part of your trip up there. I had a breakfast I will never forget in Quebec City, but would have to look up the name of the place.

I've been to Toronto a few times and do like the city -- it reminds me of a smaller NYC. But there wasn't a single meal I ate there that was memorable.

What about french whores?  While watching Kids in the Hall I was lead to believe there were loads of french whores there.

They can all be found in the northeast end of downtown on St Catherine St.

The strip clubs there have this tradition of getting the groom from bachelor parties up on stage then stripping then down to the full monty, so if you aren't interested in showing your bird to a bunch of strangers and strippers on stage, then maybe don't go there for bachelor parties.

Jazz Fest is from June 27th to July 6th this year, that would be my choice of time to be there.

Made it!   :excited:  Three years in a row now.

Here's my dilemma, now that it's February and I am allowed to imbibe with impunity, I am not certain that I really want to...but do I break the seal tonight anyway just so I don't get into this stupid competition with myself or do I just see how long I can go for?
