  1. What the hell happened? The Jets looked like they had their shit together today.
  2. Happy Birth..... Wait, where is she?
  3. How many of those rolls have a little extra candy in them? Yes, I know they're white chocolate. It's perfect.
  4. Good point. Completely missed the driveway paved with homeless people. That's half the charm right there.
  5. It's nice, but you need at lest five AC Units with little death clouds coming out of the top of them.
  6. He's not saying that, but, at the same time, he's not exactly right either. Giving people money does not remove the the impetus to work, but it does make low paying, unskilled jobs unattractive, and that has problems too. The reality is that some people do need to occupy the unfulfilling jobs, like being a janitor, because they don't have the intelligence or physical ability to do something with more permanent and tangible results. You give a man a million dollars, he's not going to want to haul trash bags around for 8 hours a day unless he's an exceptionally stupid man. I mean, like single digit IQ kind of stupid.
  7. OK that was not the kind of pussy I was looking for.
  8. I’m replying because you posted in this thread. I could get a lot of pussy for a million dollars.
  9. I .... enjoyed the read. 6.9/10.
  10. I forgot what I had for lunch.
  11. Isn't that kind of big to be an aborted fetus?
  12. I don't see the problem with Werther's, but wintergreen life savers suck.
  13. Not to piggy back on to Benji, but my cousin butt dialed his mom while we were in the office today. Like seven times, while riding on a jet ski out in the Caribbean. I was kind of pissed.
  14. There's probably a reason most celebrity restaurant settle on overpriced burgers. Trejo's Tacos is also only ok.
  15. Literally, you say? Want to know what "literal" means?
  16. Sure, when I'm fucking with them, or, more specifically, you.
  17. Holy fucking shit. Where have you been that you didn't know this?
  18. Well, the bigger issue with San Diego was the location. Mission Valley is cold as fuck in the winter, and the only place the city was willing to work with them on a new stadium was going to be there on the same property as their (then) current stadium. It also isn't central like Petco is, and that's what Spanos really wanted. That being said, it was a case of neither side wanting to really budge, and, really, the city admnistration not being as enamored with the Chargers as they needed to be to make a deal. Spanos seems to be a nice enough guy, but he lacks the developer's instinct (ruthlessness?) that Kroenke has. St. Louis wasn't going to full fund a new stadium after being on the hook for the one that the Rams left behind (and that was only a little more than 20 years old), and getting a perennial also ran like the Chargers wasn't going to be an equal trade for the marginally better run Rams. Putting out $400million for the partial cost of a new stadium was already a stretch and a last ditch for St. Louis (and the state of Missouri), and it was more contingent on keeping the Rams and their infrastructure in place. Spending that and other tax incentives to get the Chargers there would not have been particularly cost effective trade off for the local economy. In fact, I think the only reason they even tried it is because they knew Kroenke was stringing the along and they wanted to force his hand.
  19. They weren't going to give the Rams a new stadium, why would they give the Chargers one?
  20. No, it's a coating, not a paint. You can't coat walls with it and expect it to actually cover like a paint would.
  21. Happy Birthday! This should have been in Rants.
