War Room Lounge v123: I will powerbomb you on legos and micro machines

[Higus]

I also keep a couple of those giant blue IKEA bags in my car trunk for things like groceries or whatnot.

that's actually pretty fashionable, very sleek looking....too bourgeois for me. I'm sure @Trotsky would agree

Nope, I like it

It fucking better.

Really though I'll go to paying off extra each month on my student loan and paying down CC debt.

It didn’t Greg, save your money for your own place.

random question gentlemen, I started this thread in Mayberry, just wanted to get your guys's opinion as well.

What is your primary backpack of use, for everyday purposes, be it a gym bag, or a bag you carry to work and back that has a change of clothes, food, etc?

or your favorite bag for hiking and/or recreational use?

I don’t know how to post pictures but I’ve had my JAN sport back packs for over 18 years. It has like a rubber bottom.

I always end up picking up a couple whenever I'm there. Super cheap, reusable, portable, etc. Easily one of the best purchases there.

Those things are gold , great as laundry bags , as a recycling bin and even in the garden .

I'm nervous. Worried that he'll have a completely fucktarded Libertarian take on COVID that won't be funny. But also excited, hoping he'll have a completely fucktarded Libertarian take on COVID that's really, really funny.

I smell a conspiracy

I have an Osprey 34 Commuter. Awesome backpack for long hikes or traveling.

Sdw, mine basically looks like this but grey. Can't find it now, though. Haven't used it since traveling in January.

Maybe he’ll have a segment on Asian males.

Look, I like the annexation of Hawaii (which occurred before his presidency) less than literally anyone else here. But I think you’re really ignoring how great of a domestic president he was. His work trust busting and in conservation is enough for me to think highly of him.

I don’t really consider personal failings either. So vanity or racism or whatever is meaningless to rating his presidency; especially when in practice he was less racist and less self-serving than the average person of the time despite being far, far, more capable.

You’re also underrating Tim Duncan. But I get it, you’re a Houston guy.

I gave him his due on domestic policy, hence my "good president" and B- grade.

But his racism was more than personal. Yeah, everyone at the time was racist but there were degrees to it. For some, you have to dig real deep into their journals or letters to a friend or something to find it. Teddy has a bunch of public speeches and even published books with his ideas spelled out.

And these did carry out into policy. He's really the one that started the large-scale militarism that we're used to now:

Not disqualifying stuff but enough for me to regard him as not great.

And Mr. Fundamentals is boring as fuck. The crappiest of the all-time greats. I do hate the Spurs overall but as a fan, I used to dread facing David Robinson more. Duncan with his 20 and 12 every night wasn't scaring anyone.

I have a Dynamic Discs Trooper bag that holds about 15 discs plus plenty of room for a few microfiber towels, 32 oz of water and keys/wallet/phone.

Oh wait, you mean bags that real people use for real things.

I have an old Dana Design pack w/internal skeleton that is absolutely bombproof, nary a stitch askew from a decade of being hauled up cliffs and through forests.

Also @Sara those old school JanSport packs are the truth and the light, I have a few of those lying around still.

I got my first one in middle school, lasted all of high school as well, bought a second one in college, then I used both, one was my Monday and Wednesday class bag, the other was my Tuesday and Thursday bag, and I use them both still for travelling. Best bags ever.

How's the disc golf thing going for you lately? Are parks in your hood shut down due to Covid?

Yeah a number of them are shut down (all of the county-maintained ones). But my "home course" is still open. Just played this morning. Got caught in a wee monsoon and then a hooded man suddenly appeared from deep in the deluged forest with a disc I thought I had lost. It was weird. I'm still losing weight. Today I took just a few discs and jogged in between shots. I think I've found a cardio activity I like!

One of the funniest posts I've ever seen on here was back in the day some poster was harassing my bud @axhand1e so he made a thread titled "Online Mods help!!" And described the harrassment in the OP.

One of the first replies was a mod saying "uhhh log out?"

Fucking killed me

I have a hydration pack similar to this , it probably ten years old now ,had to replace the reservoir but it's still going strong .
