There were some cool things that cross fit kind of made mainstream in the fitness world. Being able to work out without a ton of fancy gym equipment was really appealing back when I was 15 years younger and sitting in rear end crack Afghanistan with a kettle bell and some sand bags.

That poo poo went off the rails super fast though. I have no idea what went wrong but it feels like Cross Fit should own some land in Oregon and be tainting local buffets with E. coli in an attempt to take over area politics.

Wonder how many points they lost for touching MTG when she first arrived. Party of Jesus and Morality after all.

It took me a couple of times reading that to realize that, in this context, MTG did not stand for Magic The Gathering.

Wow real glad we implemented these idiot kings in here, poo poo has been super exciting ever since that happened

Probating you for being an rear end in a top hat would just feed into whatever persecution complex you seem to have.

Have you considered trying to make this place better instead of being one of the reasons IKs got brought back into GIP?

OpenJDK has had a Java runtime environment included in Linux distros since the early 2000s. Oracle hasn’t gotten a dime from that either.

You guys are saying these things like Groundhog Day or Scrooged were good with him.

Really making me wanna abuse IK powers with this hot take. Groundhog Day is a great movie that popularized an entire sub genre.

I have more fun watching you try to get probated for being an rear end in a top hat and failing because your antics aren’t interesting enough to prompt me to stop using the Awful App and actually log into the forums.

Me and one of my college buddies both joined the local VFW. It's been a great place for us to go have a super cheap beer on a sunny patio to ourselves this past year with actual tavern culture being more or less dead. The old timers in there are always giving us this little pep talk about how we need to take the place over, but I don't think I could deal with the chuds on my own. It is nice that they let us talk our commie poo poo and just kind of respect that this new generation of veteran hits a little different. I totally understand why most of you would avoid the local vets org post, though. The one time we went to the local Legion post I almost got in a fistfight with a 50 year old man after his rant about how too much democracy is the real problem

One of my coworkers husband runs the local Marine Corps league and drops newsletters off at my desk when I am not there. She seems like the nicest lady ever but I saw her reading Tucker Carlson and remembered that most vet organizations would not be a good fit for me and my belief system.

Just join the masons and have better social connects.

Or do the masons not exist in the form I remember.

I was a mason and all I got was a secret handshake, an apron, and a bunch of volunteer hours at the local food bank. My lodge was mostly geriatric dudes hiding from their wives on a Wednesday night.

Going from a Marine Corps base over to a Navy base was night and day with how much more the Navy enforced social distancing and wearing masks.

All this tells me is that they are aware of how the public will react to the decision to charge or not. Which tells me what the decision is.

Maybe I’m being pessimistic.

Seeing what parts of Minneapolis still look like from the George Floyd murder and the unrest that followed, I suspect that some concrete barriers and a fence won’t be a real deterrent.

Can we all please take a step back on the cops killing people thing for a bit? Folks are rightfully emotional about this subject but maybe we don’t tell each other to gently caress off multiple times a page?

Take a walk outside. Hug your family or your pets or whatever you care about in this world. The policing problem in the US will be here when you get back.

First time I was in Australia I asked the woman at a package store what the locals were into. I walked out with a slab of Victoria Bitter and spent the evening too proud to go back and buy something that tasted less like straight rear end.
