I remember listening to his VP speech at the DNC in 2004. Edwards was a charismatic dude who could say all the right things.

It's easy to forget that the country had never elected a black man or a woman and a lot of people on the left thought that even though obama or clinton probably were way better, they might be literally unelectable due to racism and gender bias. John Edwards was a tactical choice for a lot of Democrats.

Her whole job was to watch their kids while his wife slept off the chemo and john ran on an elliptical for like 3 hours at a time. One time she brought her BF or he picked her up or whatever. His kids were so hosed up they thought he was their dad. Also John Edwards house is the ugliest drat thing you've ever seen.

The thing is that everyone knew he was cheating on his wife. This was a century ago in 2003 but it was just waiting to drop. The right didn't need it since Dick Cheney slaughtered him so bad in the VP debate.

God our DSA general meeting is going to be a shitshow since all the people we are endorsing for elections are going to be there to ask for our endorsement and already it looks like we are going to tell John Fetterman to gently caress off to Braddock because he doesn't identify as socialist and also supports a Costa over another candidate we are probably going to endorse. Guy is built like a brick shithouse and is known to be a bully (which is why he supported Hillary after failing to make any waves in the Sanders camp)

FizFashizzle posted:Also John Edwards house is the ugliest drat thing you've ever seen. Well see you park over on the right. You go through the visitor's center, maybe you'd like to pick up a map. Then you walk past the silo masquerading as a lighthouse and through the barn. After that you go through a series of utility sheds. Then go past a room or two and hang a left, that's where we'll be having dinner.

It's exactly like living in a hotel except you pay millions of dollars to stay there and it's easier to get away with loving the help.

Ehud posted:On their phone? One time in a traffic jam I'm next to some douche in a convertible on his phone. A few car lengths ahead of him clear out and he doesn't notice, and suddenly the truck behind him I guess didn't see him and drove into him, pushing him a few feet. Guy drops his phone, freaks the gently caress out and I'm trying really hard not to explode with laughter.

Yeah, one of the owner of my company's daughters has been the interior designer for the company for decades, and every wall has pieces of art she's picked out. Rich people hobbies means I'm sitting 5 feet away from some 4 sq. ft paintings of vegetables.

My wife and I moved to a smaller apartment back in May and it was really nice to have an excuse to finally offload some poo poo. Still got some stuff to get rid of though, I have three old laptops that I've been meaning to recycle but I want to take the hard drives out first. I've just been too lazy to look up how to do it properly

I've just been too lazy to look up how to do it properly unscrew panels on the underside until you find the hard drive, it'll pop out. Destroy it by running a drill through it. If you don't have a drill, a sledgehammer will do. If you don't have either, you can try baking it at 500 degrees for half an hour, but I would not suggest doing that in your kitchen. Another option is to immerse it in salt water for a few days, although I'm not sure if you'd get into the mostly-sealed compartment with the platters that way.
