The great Trump thread (it's gonna be tremendous)

omg is this something media really need to talk about at all? xD

I'm the enemy, 'cause I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech, and freedom of choice. I'm the kinda guy that likes to sit in a greasy spoon and wonder, "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecue ribs with the side-order of gravy fries?" I want high cholesterol! I wanna eat bacon, and butter, and buckets of cheese, okay?! I wanna smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section! I wanna run naked through the street, with green Jell-O all over my body, reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly may feel the need to, okay, pal? I've SEEN the future. Do you know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sitting around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake, singing "I'm an Oscar Meyer Wiene"

It's like that one time Obama had a photo taken with his feet up inside the Oval Office.

Ah I see. I had steak medium and wasn't amazed by the reduced doneness. Usually just get mine well done, haven't really had a dry one that I haven't cooked. But doing it does provoke people so that's another mark for it. :p

 

Conway should know better. Well, as with a lot of things she should..

Except nodody whined?

 

Google "pictures of presidents with feet on desk" and enjoy!

 

 

I distinctly remember hearing/reading right wingers complain about it at the time and then being silenced with a myriad of pictures of presidents with feet on the desk.

 

Meanwhile, more important things are going on:

Er what party are you breaking up? Not exactly an unpopular opinion being expressed there.

Well seeing how you think they read here, no need.

Good Lord are people still whining about President Fart? Get on with your lives, one lying, scumbag politician replaced another, and Del Amitri were proven to be prophetic again.

Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it? That's what it is to be married with children.

I've seen things you people can't even imagine. Pearly Kings glittering on the Elephant and Castle, Morris Men dancing 'til the last light of midsummer. I watched Druid fires burning in the ruins of Stonehenge, and Yorkshiremen gurning for prizes. All these things will be lost in time, like alopecia on a skinhead. Time for tiffin.

 

Tea for the teapot!

You, sir, are a better man than I

 

If we are having people over and I know they only like overcooked steak then steak is just off the menu. That includes most nearly one whole side of my family who for some reason cook all the flavor and juices out of the meat then slather it in too much sauce to compensate. It wouldn't be quite so bad if I knew that's just how they really like it but almost to a person none of them have ever or are even willing to try even a medium

 

I'm more than willing to make other cuts that are supposed to be cooked well done

 

To be fair, I wonder how much of it really comes from a desire (even if passed down through the family) to eliminate parasites from meat rather than any real concern regarding taste.

I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man

Yeah, you want some steaks well done to eliminate parasites- pork (trichinosis) especially. Also chicken, if you count that due to Salmonella/ Campylobacter.

 

 

And if you eat your steak well done and especially if it's grilled you remove most of the fat which then makes it healthier for your heart. Six of one half dozen of the other.

 

Medium rare/ rare master race personally, but as with many health benefits it's largely a wash in practice.

Some of them are totally selective germophobes but I think for most it's more that it's just outside their comfort zones

 

I had a few well done onlys visting here recently who I gave up on taking them to anything not fast food. So it's not like health was a big concern

Only the first one is relevant, though.

Hmm. I would argue that in fact the first one is not relevant, considering that this is the Trump thread. From what I've read, the jobs market was already recovering before he took office.

 

I seem to vaguely recall someone here predicting that this would happen a few months back. Enoch? Agiel? Bah, crap memory.

Point taken. Have to say I am amused at hiring due to confidence that things will pick up knowing how it goes in my company. :lol:

Kind of a shame that the positive things that Trump tweeted about International Women's Day were overshadowed by his lousy Gitmo and wiretapping claims.
