The Quotes of The Day


Quote I

“The pampered ones forget why police exist and assume everyone is like them. Unfortunately, some humans actually enjoy using violence against others. If they are not stopped, they will come for you.” Elon Musk


Older story while I was enjoying my AoS weekend. I still have a schadenboner about the 'victim'.

Quote II

“It just meant I needed to push myself to jump a little higher,” Pfc. Nathaniel Laprade, a Marine with Hotel Company, 2nd Recruit Training Battalion


Quote III

Do yourself a favor: if you ever write a will, select an executor who isn't a selfish, sanctimonious ass with a streak of passive-aggressive nine miles wide, no work ethic and no sense of gratitude). Matthew Noto


Quote IV

"I was livid. Like, how dare you force me out of a career that I've dedicated my whole life to, take away my livelihood, my ability to earn a good income, and now you think I'm gonna come grovel back to you? Former registered nurse Terry Poland

I hope Terry schedules an interview and tells them all to go Fuck themselves. But, that's me.

Quote V

“Why wouldn’t we as a tribe deserve the same internet service that you guys have in the cities? We are reliant on internet service just as much as anyone else." Sunshine Thomas-Bear, the tribe’s historic preservation officer.


Gambling revenues down a tad there Sunshine?

I'm guessing there will not be 'Price Rollbacks' at this store.

An Atlanta Walmart will add a distinctive feature to combat retail theft: an on-site police substation or a mini precinct that will double as a deterrent to shoplifters and a working space for officers.

The store is set to open in May of 2024, following a nearly year-long closure after shoplifters set the building on fire to distract from their thieving.

The Walmart fire was one of many arsons involving major retailers, such as Target and another Walmart, in Atlanta.

If I tell myself a lie long enough I might believe it. Those with 2 eyes and any common sense will not.

Although the current government has just announced an easing of these rules, they still give plenty of power to objectors. But I would ask country dwellers still inclined to block them to see that they are in fact beautiful. They are prettier than power stations, less destructive than fracking, certainly lovelier than floods, fires, droughts and other effects of climate change. They enrich the nation with the help of its abundant wind, and make us less dependent on fossil-fuel despots.

Senator Bill Cassidy (R-LA) tells us it is raining while urinating on our backs.
Are his lips attached to Sen. Mitch McConnell's:
A) [ ] Ass,
B) [ ] Dick or
C) [ ] Both.

A Trump-hating Republican senator clapped back at Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), whose remarks about Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s freezing during a recent press conference possibly being related to a “neurological event” caused a stir.

Senator Bill Cassidy (R-LA) who is a doctor by trade appeared on the grand finale of host Chuck Todd’s stint heading up NBC’s Sunday morning flagship “Meet the Press” where he scoffed at his Kentucky colleague’s “limitations of training” while defending the 81-year-old McConnell’s fitness which has come under question after a series of health-related incidents and growing criticism about the geriatric congressional leadership in general.


Hey, the answer is C.

How drunk was he that the store refused a sale? Genius Award Winner.

A Florida Man was arrested early yesterday after allegedly pelting a pair of Walgreens workers with Snickers bars during a 1:20 AM confrontation, police report.

The employees were not injured in the candy fusillade.

Cops say that Idel Noy-Quesada, 23, tangled with workers after unsuccessfully trying to buy cigarettes at a Walgreens store in Clearwater.

Noy-Quesada had shown a photo of an ID card, but “was refused service due to the business’s policy,” according to a criminal complaint.

Denied his smokes, Noy-Quesada reportedly became “irate” and began throwing Snickers bars at a female employee, who was hit in the face by the airborne candy, which contains nougat, caramel, and peanuts, all of which are enrobed in milk chocolate.
