Social WR Lounge v212: Chili is disgusting

[LazaRRus]

It should be an immediate ban for not liking chili

 

[CubicleGangster]

Like race ?
Like culture?

I'm a fat white trash American redneck. By stereotypes I should love the stuff but im a very fussy eater and I have texture issues with a lot of foods.

This you?

The skyler hate was completely unreasonable imo.

I thought she handled that....entire situation pretty well, all things considered.

She drew firm boundaries, tried to protect her family...then tried to make it work with Walter....

Yea and Jesse was trash.

Hes essentially the Ginger (from Casino, Sharon stone's character) of that show

Could not disagree more
She is a hypocritical cunt who was planting the seeds for an affair with her boss long before she even knew Walt had cancer

She is garbage and Walt should have never saved her ass

Probably one of my most controversial opinions, it seems, is that Season 5 was fundamentally bad. And a huge decline in quality from Season 4. One of the biggest reason for that was the sudden transformation of Walt into this evil cartoon villain and the subsequent changes in the relationships with Skyler and Jesse. Also the forced plot resolutions ("I watched...."), the gratuitous "make Jesse sympathetic" move, the overall decision to make lame new characters the Big Bad, and of course the logistically asinine concluding sequence.

@Social Distance Warrior Also, Jesse was peak douche in Season 4 imo. Walt upends his entire life and career, and puts his own life and the lives of his family in danger, to save Jesse from a gunfight that he chose to enter. Then Jesse immediately falls for Gus's telegraphed attempts at flattery and turning him against Walt. They exchange words and get in a fight. After a cool down, Jesse sucker punches Walt and beats him to shit. Then, after that, he becomes a tight shirt-wearing badass for the rest of the season that can physically threaten Walt just for showing his face? He returned back to his "regular" self in the first half of Season 5, but that still annoyed me. The Gus-Jesse subplot was the worst part of Season 4 because of how unrealistic it was.

I retired my storm troopers of death shirt from gym duty when it was down to one sleeve and had a half dozen thread bare holes. Sad day.

I've got an Iron Maiden and a Pantera about to age out, the Slayers and Megadeths and such are doing OK. I don't let any one band drop below maintenance level. Of course the Ratts and Whitesnakes of the world are but distant memories.

Any of you guys dig the movie Stranger than Fiction? A favorite of mine

Good movie

I'll never get over Jesse performing an Olympic level rings routine to escape from the Nazis despite being a weak little bitch who could barely beat up an old man with cancer

What'd you get your dubs for?

I'm taking this idea to the booth right now.

Being flippant about Mitch McConnell's claimed fears for his safety after that graffiti on his house. It was on the first page of that thread on the story, so you probably saw the post.

Did meal team 6 buy up all the spare parts in preparation of a showdown with Beijing Biden or something?

Maybe it was Meal Team Six members but it's also the fucking scalping assholes that will panic buy everything and then when nothing happens... they'll try to sell it on the third party market at like a $100 markup the same way you can't get a graphics card right now.

I'd say @Falsedawn would understand what I'm saying then I remember he's a member of the 1% and has a fucking 3000 series GPU.

Greg I've got to think that it's time to invest in additional workout apparel, I don't think one shirt is going to do it. Perhaps withdraw a few bucks from the money you're saving for that .50 AE Desert Eagle or something and head to Dick's and just go crazy man.

Right now I'm picturing you toiling away at the squat rack with a 20 year old System of a Down t-shirt barely hanging on and it's not a happy vision.

I use an old Duluth Trading Post shirt lol. Was my old work shirt when I did manual labor and maintenance for the city at the wastewater treatment plant that I ended up chopping the sleeves off of right near the seam because I tore the shit out of one sleeve dealing with blackberry bushes.

I'll just buy some cheap shirts from like Fanatics or something of sports teams I like to replace the ones I have had for 2-3 years and those older shirts will become workout shirts.

I don’t think Keuchly was overrated tbh. He still has some NFL records if I’m not mistaken. Short career but when he was at his best he was a beast. He was very good in pass coverage as well.

Overrated was probably wrong but I felt like he got a tad more credit than deserved at times.

The one that always annoyed me was Bobby Wagner. The guy is a great interior LB but the way they talk him up using just tackle numbers always made me scratch my head when bonafide mediocre guys like Blake Martinez would pace him with tackles or get more than Wagner.

 

[Deleted member 579584]

I was hoping to make you change that AV, but oh well. He fucked it up. So, give 'er. What's it going to be?

Joe Biden running

 

[Andy Capp]

Joe Biden running

Dude, you can't assign me an avatar and then tell me to go get it myself. Get me an AV I can use and I will honor the wager.

This was not the way I wanted to go

Come on Greg, it's not all babies.

I got a Mercedes-Benz GLC300 a week ago, and I had to settle for white. White, Greg. I've driven blacked out and gunmetal joints all my life, I'm fucking my brand up in a white car.

What about me? What about my pain?

 

[JDragon]

I want to make an 'Evidence-based politics' thread. The basic idea: I will try to identify meta analyses for contentious (e.g. 'Does more police reduce crime?') and compile it.

Topic proposals?

 

[Jack V Savage]

Thanks. For some reason I thought it was only one day but it was just about 2 days exactly in between. Still, kind of an odd thing for both of us to bring up. Sadly, it didn't really sink in with the person I was talking to. How did you make out?

Not sure. @JDragon?

You mean to tell me, the stereotype from Family Guy of the dude in the white convertible isn't true? WHAT ELSE HAVE CARTOONS LIED TO ME ABOUT?!

TBF, me not having a truck payment now and my folks letting me live rent free as long as I help around the house (and I have forced my way into cooking dinner twice a week as well to give my mom a break in the kitchen) is helping me immensely play catch up and save money. Maybe I'll finally get to fix my windshield.

I should get a second car though someday. When I had to take my truck to the shop last year for the tranny replacement (giggity) it sucked not having transportation. But I have no clue what I can go get. I know what I would want.


But not idea what I could afford or would go with.

Also, you're opposite of me. Every vehicle in my family and the two vehicles I have used/owned were white or at least primarily white.
