Guardians of the Galaxy 2 teaser trailer out. Pretty stoked for that one

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Oct 19, 2016 -> 10:33 AM) How would a lot of people spell it? Realize it is odd coming from me of all people, but I couldn't even think of another way to spell rogue. Rouge

I cant wait until this is over. What a s*** show.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 18, 2016 -> 04:41 PM) Trump is the worst candidate in modern history, by far. Nobody is even close, except Goldwater in 1964. You don't see Dems complaining that McGovern, Carter, Mondale, Dukakis, Gore and Kerrey got hosed (except for the Supreme Court and State of Florida in 2000). Just like the Republicans ran some pretty flawed candidates against Clinton and Obama. Republicans have always been able to outspend Dems by a 3/2 advantage, and Citizens United gave them yet another opening but they've failed to modernize and embrace the changing demographics in America. Before Obama, their use of databases/voter information was twice as good as the Dems as well. Hence 28/40 years with Republican presidents and numerous Congresses since 1994. I think it was proven by the Dems that its pretty easy to beat Clinton if you put a decent candidate against her, shoot even Bernie gave her a run. But instead the GOP put the worst candidate in our lifetimes against her. Thats not a rigged election, thats stupidity by the entire party. Now you have a violent, terribly racist, moronic voting base pretty much representing your party to the world. Just a gigantic error.

Do people really expect more stories on Clinton than Trump at this point? He's a sideshow. People would rather watch the clown.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 16, 2016 -> 10:02 AM) Funny that you ask, Russ. We were going to, but the logos cost about $1200. They offered to throw in one for free, but I used that upgrade to get them to upgrade us to LED lighting fixtures instead. My wife wanted Ohio State and I wanted Oregon, so we compromised and did neither. At least this way it isn't personalized in case we need to move or something. Your wife is a smart lady

OMG that super cut....

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Oct 18, 2016 -> 09:23 AM) The "rigged election!" nonsense is spreading to members of Congress now. Really not cool that they're actively undermining the legitimacy of our democracy because they're losing. https://mobile.twitter.com/PhilipRucker/sta...352690116030464 Sore losers. I'm surprised this many of them actually thought Trump would win this election.

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 17, 2016 -> 08:06 PM) Oh yeah. I forgot about that cOnnector. I still have it in the box. I just so happened to be looking at mine when I posted. Its probably going to live in the case for my headphones

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 17, 2016 -> 06:54 PM) ANyone know if there are speaker decks for iPhone 7? All the ones priced in my range are for the ones with the headjack. What do you mean by speaker deck? Shouldnt they just use the lightning connector or the adapter that came with the 7?

Bonerific

The last GTA I am stuck with nowhere to go. Thats never happened to me before.

That Elliott pick doesn't look so bad does it?

I love how people aren't aware documents can be edited.

Bball is weird for me since Matta completely pivoted the program. I'm anxious to see what happens

The penalties were pretty oddly called against us over and over. Game had a weird vibe to it.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 05:17 PM) Hillary's blunders get ignored by the press; Trump's are headlines. For some reason, Hillary, who isn't even cooperative with the press, is their runaway choice and she benefits from the free publicity. Yes Trump gives the press a lot of material, but they aren't even trying to nail Bill/Hillary. Meghan McCain had a guest yesterday who wrote a book on evil Hillary or whatever he called it and said Bill has had wild parties in the Arkansas museum which includes an apartment he uses. Hillary always stays at the hotel the rare occasions she's been in Arkansas. The writer said Bill is ambivalent about Hillary winning cause he knows if she wins his love life with others has to end. He'll have to be accounted for in D.C. I mean this guy is SAYING it at risk of lawsuits but nobody's checking it out?? Hmmm. The Greg needs to stop it.

I was in rural SW ohio last weekend and there were Trump signs on every front lawn. I do not believe those people are voting for him because of economic reasons since it really doesnt help them, I believe its religion and racism.

Want to know why the emails arent being taken more seriously? Because they are editable and have been changed. Plus they show almost nothing.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 04:09 PM) The "pulling up your bootstraps" method doesn't work for everyone. When in poverty, often the parents get severely depressed and get other mental health issues. A lot of the times those mental health issues are the reason the family is in poverty.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 04:03 PM) Sure. But the truest indicator is the push the kids get from the people around them. I live in a town with about a 50% poverty rate in the schools. My daughter goes to school with kids who are quite literally homeless. Her best friend has a dad who was never around, and mom who lost custody because she is a drug addict and part time criminal to pay for it. An Aunt who is herself working 3 jobs is raising this kid. Despite the situation the kid is close to a straight A student. It is all because the Aunt forced the child to do early education activities from day one of taking over her parenting. For other kids in the situation, school is nothing but a day care and lunch counter. Their performance reflects that as well. I mean government can try to help all it wants, but there is an absolutely vital period very early on that if development doesn't take place, the kid is close to doomed statistically speaking. Parenting is definitely a factor if not the MAIN factor in those kids getting out of that situation.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 02:41 PM) I have actually heard high school girls talk about getting pregnant for the increase in welfare. Of course the few times I heard it, these kids were coming out of extreme situations so it isn't like a common thing. But there are a non-zero percentage of people who see that kid as a paycheck because their situations are so dire and hopeless. This isnt even close to the amount of a welfare check though.

QUOTE (brett05 @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 02:26 PM) Do you personally know anyone that is milking the poverty system? Yes, I am serious. LOL, you seriously think people would have kids to get a $1,000 TAX credit and ultimately lose money in the process? Jesus Christ thats moronic.
