Participant[quote=scaredyclassic]But seriously, why are u.s. soldiers always perceived as tough. A guerrilla fighter in the jungle with no support and no hope is tough.
A cog in the worlds largest military machine just isn’t tough in the same way.[/quote]
That’s pretty much what Batman said to Superman during their duel.

Participant[quote=burghMan][quote=outtamojo]I dont like that Biden sent a letter to tv media asking them not to put Giuliani on
That is downright lame, as if Biden could not come up with other ways to fight the smear job.[/quote]It was a weak move, but are there other ways?
These days, smear jobs are more effective than ever. Much of Trump’s success can be attributed to his effective use of smear jobs. The “birther” claims were absurd and idiotic but literally millions believe them. Most of Trump’s approach to fighting his own misdeeds is to basically repeat “I know you are but what am I” over and over through right wing media.
There’s a saying: Teaching truth requires evidence but teaching falsehoods only requires confusion. Social media and 24 hour news have amplified this effect. Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes truth to many.
I think Biden has done everything that reasonably can be done to fight the smear job. Unfortunately it probably won’t be enough.[/quote]
You are dead on about how effective smear jobs are- people think Biden Sr. strong armed the removal of a prosecutor in Ukraine all by himself.

ParticipantI keep seeing this on the news too- beyond me to know if this turns out to be a missed sign or nothing at all.

ParticipantGood riddance to uber and and other crap companies whose business model is to take advantage of those unable to figure hidden costs.
Just cause you are an employee rather than an independent contractor doesn’t mean you cannot have flexible hours- that is decided by management, not by law.
Yes it’s more work/ requires more creativity dealing with employees/ Unions
but companies that will have a hard time have stupid management who well, dont deserve to be management.outtamojo
Participant3 mile drives are perfect for all electric- ice cars barely have time to warm up.

ParticipantTo be fair all cars in the luxury category have astounding rates of depreciation but if you want all electric you gotta get a Tesla. The base 3 leaves the new leaf and new korean evs in the dust.
That said, do not buy a new all electric to save money on gas- not gonna beat the total cost of ownership for this Prius.
We have a Model 3 long range- we bot it in lieu of the 4 series bmw the wife wanted. We bot it because it was the better car, not for economy. I wanna see the model Y- supposedly they got the wiring down to about 100 meters vs about a mile’s worth for a car with bells and whistles.outtamojo
ParticipantThat is an insane deal for a new car.

I think Mexico is gonna want to pay for the wall now- neighbors up north are too violent.

Participant[quote=FlyerInHi]Ah, scaredy, you identified what makes American men insecure.
Real “men” should be secure in their own skin and they would not hate soyboys. Why do they hate? Because they are aging and are getting weak. They are worried that soyboys are onto something that they are being left out of.
I know that I am healthier and have more endurance than my college friends who didn’t change their life habits. I eat tofu all the time. In fact, I love to order mixed veggies or fresh ginger with tofu at the Thai restaurant. I ask them to make it less salty so I don’t consume too much high blood pressure inducing sodium Plain food is actually delicious because you can taste the natural flavors of the ingredients.
If you watch old movies, you will notice that the urbane sophisticated person was admired through the 1960s. The Kennedys represented sophistication. Nixon and Reagan represented the ordinary blue collar guys. Obama is the educated new economy and the future. Trump is “we want our America back.”
soyboys will win in the end. Brains over brawn. A soyboy actually has more endurance/brawn (long term strength) than a football player. The soyboy will also live longer.[/quote]
If you wanna feel manly go hiking with your wife or woman friend and keep up.
My wife picked up hiking and without any training did 6-10 mile “moderate” rated trails every single day for like a month. I can easily run and jump circles around her but endurance wise it is no contest. She and her woman friends try to drag me along to hike but I can only do every other day at the most ( without whining about sore muscles and aching knees.) -
