  1. Agreed. Seems like here in IL they have swarms of drones that will blowdart you with the vaccine if you walk outside. I guess Ive just lucked out so far that they havent yet found any issues with the Moderna shot.
  2. The whole fam already has their first shot. You can count on that, Jack. At least the threat of some superspreader coughing into my mouth when Im yawning, penetrating my mask, and getting me sick is reduced. As is the possibility of my potentially asymptomatic oral and nasal mists infecting a high risk individual.
  3. I get my second shot in a little over a week. I guess it will move me from 80%-->90% resistant? Cool cool.
  4. Eh, if China gets too big for its britches then we can just send Japan over to give them the pimp hand. Again.
  5. I wasnt quite sure either so I just checked and youre spot on: Cole Young
  6. I watched Mortal Kombat too and imo, the first 7 minutes are the best part of the movie. The rest was fine, just meh. I did lol hard at
  7. True dat. Ive LITERALLY never gotten the flu vaccine.
  8. Its not what you know, its who you know. Trust me.
  9. Not a fan, I think I can count on one hand the times Ive said "mmm, good cornbread". It always seems dry to me and I like it moist. How is it intended, dry or moist?
  10. Luckily for Giants fans, Alex was not asked to leave. When I first glanced at the headline I thought the poor thing got hit by a foul ball.
  11. That, and my complete lack of skill while executing the move.
  12. Some mornings, when Im working from home but my wife is going into work, Ill do a little jig for her in the garage as shes backing down the driveway. Todays routine was the floss...and it did not go well. Hysterical giggling could be heard as she motored away.
  13. Therapy bunny in Oracle Park stands a hit with San Francisco Giants' fans.
  14. Its the times we live in. Also see the state of mind thread for a clear examples of how people consume their "facts" via social media posts that confirm their bias, and then regurgitate them as facts around the world. If thats as far as a person will research, then you cant expect much. Mobs gonna mob.
  15. My memory is a little foggy, but I didnt pay anything (or very very little) for the birth of my child.
  16. NASA's Mars helicopter Ingenuity will attempt its 2nd flight Thursday. "According to Aung, the images from Ingenuity's second flight should begin to arrive at approximately 9:21 a.m. EDT (1321 GMT)."
  17. Theres probably a Reddit thread about it, but one thing you absolutely do not want to happen to you in the US, and I cannot stress this enough, is to get bitten by a venomous snake. The price of anti-venom is so astronomical they will just come over, put your house on jacks, and tow that thing right off the foundation.
  18. Its interesting to compare the "new housing starts" from 1968-2021. In my case, the early-mid 90's seems worse or equivalent to today, but Im sure youre right about the geographic location being a big factor.
  19. No need for nuclear missiles or scawy Russian tsunami torpedoes, global warming is past the "tipping point". But I realize that Im the dinosaur in the room and I think things have changed in the real estate market. Back in my day, my first home was what was coined a "starter home". It was modest, a simple 3BR / 2Bath ranch style, in a quiet suburb of FL. I sure as hell didnt have the full down payment so I had to get PMI. Anywho, fast forward a few years, and property appreciates as property do, and when I sold it I made a nice profit, which I was able to apply to a nicer house. Rinse and repeat. But maybe such opportunities no longer exist or are too far away from their desired location?
  20. A different coastline is on the way. A wise investor should buy up properties a little inland and then in a couple decades they will be able to leave their descendants beachfront property. Follow me for more tips.
  21. Youve got it exactly wrong, yet again. Those are the only things I need to worry about. The rest of the world can form a queue and Ill get to you as my interest and resources permit. UHC! UHC! UHC! and UBI!
  22. Whoa, some old names in this thread. As to your topic, to legally purchase a weapon, I think we need to incorporate some kind of psychological exam. But theres no realistic way to comb someone social media posts. Of course that does nothing to control the sales of illegal guns but its a start.
