What does this have to do with Hunter, whose tax charges were just dropped? 😂
Has your broken brain finally snapped completely and now you can do nothing but post random nonsense videos that are 100% unrelated to the topic of the video and the comment thread? Seems like it. Your next video comment was more “no topic nonsense” too.

What nominee for what position? This clip made no point. You can’t honestly believe anyone is going to trust Ted Cruz about anything can you?

Whoever it is, their record beats Amy Coney Barrett‘s complete lack of qualifications and experience having never tried a single case when Trump nominated her to be an appeals judge and barely a tiny bit more more when he appointed her as a Supreme Court justice less than 3 years later purely because she would vote to overturn Roe despite saying it was settled and well tested law she wouldn’t ever even consider overturning at her confirmation.

Judges...makes me wonder. Has Amy Coney Barrett--do you think she has had "the talk" with her two adopted black children about how they should respond to, approach, expect to interact with police?

It's amazing what the assumption of privilege provides as armor for someone in interacting with someone armed with a gun...

I feel that he probably won't make it. Sadly once you are accused of sexual anything with a female, you are pretty much fucked. There is no more innocent until proven guilty. Were I him, even though it has been scientifically proven that lie detector tests are inherently flawed, I would have volunteered to take one just to push past this.

On the flip side, the possible next nominee is Judge Amy Coney Barrett and there is precedent for them to completely skip the committee vote, so there is a good possibility that we can still get a conservative judge on the court. She has not been as harsh towards abortion rights either, so there is a silver lining.

... Every weekend of this summer I went down to the Briton Beach area (next to Coney Island in NYC) which has a big Caspian-Russian/Ukrainian populace. Me and my friend try to arrive early in the morning in order to take full advantage of our day, because by lunchtime is when all the non-locals from other parts of the city start pouring in.

The beach is noticeably cleaner and quieter in the morning even when there are several people running about, generally getting a tan or going in for a quick swim. And as soon as 10:30am hits, locals start folding their beach towels and walk off, and you begin to see the non-locals and tourists moving in. You start to hear loud music, you hear vendors selling water and beer, cellphones and loud laughter.

Over the past few months I've noticed a major difference between beach habits of locals and non-locals, which is that non-locals usually brought big coolers filled with food and drinks, while as the locals didn't. Those who were hungry usually had some fruits or a piece of pastry in plastic bags, and left no crumbs on the sand. Meanwhile the non-locals were having a feast, opening bags of chips, fried chicken and what have you, and the seagulls start showing up.

When we arrive at the beach in the morning there were maybe 1 to 0 seagulls to be seen. In the afternoon, packs of seagulls with about 4 or 5 seagulls per pack were roaming around on different areas of the beach. Then you start hearing such complaints from these people as "Omaigawd this beach is so dirty" or "F*cking seagulls, they're everywhere!" This goes to tell you that it isn't just the seagulls that are annoying, it's the people who lack proper beach etiquette that ruin it for the rest of us. Tourists are bad, but it's mostly the non-locals coming in from other parts of the city that are the worst, because they 'think' they know the city. They mouth off the tourists coming outside of NYC, and yet to the locals of Brighton Beach, the non-local New Yorkers are the most annoying rats of all.

Anyways, don't bring food into the sand people. Goto a deli and eat it at the boardwalk or something.

I wasn't trying to argue about the existence of a god, I was expressing my anger that she is a shitty parent that thinks a higher being is going to do her parenting for her. Essentially we're on the same page if for different reasons...>> ^thumpa28:
Yeah, the theological angle is the one to concentrate on, how fucking predictably boring. Back on topic, the mother needs a slap.



I'm curious: did you read the links I posted? Did you research this story at all? Because it sounds like you're judging this woman based on one quote you cherry-picked from a YouTube description which was itself cherry-picked by a reporter covering the story. It doesn't bother you at all that your rant at this woman is completely based on your imaginary conjecture of who she is or what actually happened?

EDIT:

This news story seems to confirm your assumptions that this woman is not a great parent, though how religion fits into all of that is still unclear.

Now time for a corkscrew coney!

Suck it, coney!>> ^alien_concept:

Some hare somewhere's gonna get some motherfuckin' karma!

That wasn't much consolation to Topsy, who was dead, nor to Luna Park, which was eventually destroyed in a horrible fire. Today, nothing remains of either except for Edison's film. If you ask the folks at the Coney Island Museum, they'll show it to you.

I bet that would gather quite the strange looks from someone.

Either way Edison was still a bit of a dick. He was really pissed off after the World's Columbian Exhibition and tried everything he could to discredit the use of AC, including this. There was alot invested into DC power distribution so there was alot to lose.

now.. to be SLIGHTLY fair to Edison:

"On one of the more notable occasions, in 1903, Edison's workers electrocuted Topsy the elephant at Luna Park, near Coney Island, after she had killed several men and her owners wanted her put to death"

so, at the very least he didn't walk into a circus and think "Alright, what can I zap today?"

oh and Christian Scientists??...the hardcore ones??...They refuse aspirin and stiches...y stereotypin' poser.....refute the refuters with tomes of datum...adinfinitum, I had a full battery of the needles and look at me now!?....oh..ok, point taken, I'm smart and as fast as a fucking brand new roller- coaster on opening day at Coney in 1920.

Don't you like when the winter's gone
And all of a sudden it starts gettin warm
The trees and the grass start lookin fresh
And the sun and sky be lookin their best
Birds be singin, flowers be bloomin
A lot of brand new cars be zoomin
Fly girls lookin the best they can be
And the guys be dukey dukey Dan you see
Besides all that I like the warm weather
Cause that's when you can get yourself together
But I like Easter time with a grin
Cause when I was little we used to go to Coney I-sland
We used to eat a lot of stuff like cotton candy
Cause back then, it was like fine and dandy
You used to get dressed up in double knits
And your plaid suit jackets, they were the shits
The good ol' days, was back then
And the reason I reminisce, cause..

Now girls - have you ever broke up with your boyfriend
And you felt that the world was comin to an end
Sittin around the house poutin for no reason
Just because you thought your man was skeezin
For a couple of days, look gloomy and gray
Thinkin about the ol' happy days
All of a sudden, the telephone ring
He beg for your forgiveness and you know what that brings
Joy and happiness into your life
Before you felt like your heart was stabbed by a knife
I'm tellin you girl

I'm a New York City native living in Taipei for a bit and I heard that Coney Island is getting totally shut down, everything except two or three landmark rides. Is this what getting old feels like?

random fact, the poster for the warriors movie, where the gang is standing infront of their tag on the wall, they actually painted over another gang tag and to appease that gang they gave them a role in the movie. The movie also had alot of equipment damaged and various threats from the actual gang that was in Coney Island.
