Joe Rogan Interview

What about my post makes you think I give a **** what they think or say or what you think?
That’s the kind of attitude that keeps earning you the “Bitch Boy” tag.

Police officers in my experience are just ordinary humans. No better, no worse. But they signed up for a job that will sometimes ask of them extraordinary things.

Have you ever walked up the a vehicle, driving erratically with tinted windows? Not sure if the first thing you would be confronted with is the barrel of a gun or a mother and her children who were late for school drop off?

Those kind of flashpoints are their daily life. It’s extremely stressful. Even cops in low crime areas are regularly subjected to horrific encounters. OD’s, domestics, etc.

How many dead people have you seen in your life? The average urban cop has seen a half dozen, in the last month.

I don’t think we should attribute them any kind of super human power, or believe in them blindly. I would just say they’re regular people and the same way I wouldn’t say all electricians are

“gigantic pieces of shit. Corrupt. Racist. Sexist. Bullies.”

I wouldn’t say that of any profession (other than public school teacher maybe). Fix yourself.

New Yorkers Lining Up for Trump

How is it "dems being dems" when you guys have a guy on stage calling P.R. trash or saying he hung out with a black guy carving watermelon.

Don't want to be associated with that kind of talk, don't do it. Words matter (which keeps being said here), so don't talk like that when all it does is make the left look like they knew what they were talking about.
I don't fully expect it to make a big difference, but today's NY Daily News cover is pretty wild. Even for th cynical, jaded, the 'MSM is out to get Trump folks,' it'd have to be shocking.

Now I’m the cool friend

I’ve been going to games for 55 years.
Sat through oppressive heat,extreme cold,rain and snow.
Went to games by myself when I couldn’t give away a ticket.
I’ve had numerous surgeries and health issues the past 4 years so I have not been physically able to go to many games.
But I bought tickets for Nebraska,Washington and Michigan.
I was in so much pain yesterday I was almost in tears but I don’t regret going Saturday for a minute.
I’ve been waiting for this for 55 years and if I had to crawl I was I was going to be there.
My Dad started taking me to games when I was 10,sure wish he was still here to see this.
Now my IU basketball buddies who have given me Hell for wasting my time and money on IU football are hitting me up.
Sorry fellas not a chance but enjoy another winter of Woody 🏀
I took my dad and brother to the game this past Saturday. I am Getting older and some of my best memories of going to games as a kid. We had an absolute blast together.

On a side note, I was actually at the Rice game when Coach Cig was a coach there. Needless to say, they got an ass whooping that day.

I feel like most of the people around us at Henke sell their tickets because we see very few of the same faces each week.

At any rate, there were some drunk kids a couple rows back this week yelling that the needed so-and-so to score so they could win their bets.

I like to do a few sports wagers here and there for fun as much as the next guy, but I had to hold back telling them to STFU. Win first. Parlay second. The bandwagon doesn't have a discriminating palette. lol
I'd guess those Henke tickets are a lot of 'office' tickets, where they don't belong to a person, but a school office, department or program and the tickets get distributed out to people within those places. But that's conjecture on my part.

How do you deal with Islam?


JDB, your post called my attention to an interesting author and philosopher Dr. Amin Maalouf. Maaloof, from what I understand, advocates in order to be a well rounded individual we should learn about three languages and become a citizen of a all humanity.

Encourage others to find out about Maalouf and decide for yourself if his teachings have merit.

Fair, but it's easy to get on the bandwagon when you're 8-0 and experiencing unprecedented success. I've got news for everyone, we're not going to go 8-0 (and beyond) every year, so the test will be whether the newbies are still as supportive for teams that might go 8-4.

Joe Rogan Interview

I've got 4 cops in my extended family. All gigantic pieces of shit. Corrupt. Racist. Sexist. Bullies.

I'll grant you that in big cities, they sometimes are putting their lives on the line, depending upon their beat, but for county sheriffs, state cops and small towns and cities, it's mostly just an ego trip and a chance to prop up your tiny dick and big ego at least 50% of the time.
I promise you your extended family hates you right back.

“The Bloomington Bitch Boy” is what they say behind closed doors from what I understand.

I certainly wouldn't say that it's a good thing, if you're Trump (or supporting Trump).

But I also think it comes up extremely short from being a QED about the event being a Nazi rally. That's like "basket of deplorables" on steroids. And what's interesting is that most Dem analysts, strategists, talking heads, etc. said after the 2016 that Hillary's slam of Trump supporters (or some large part of his supporters) was not helpful for her.

A standard maxim in politics is that, you can slam your opponent all you want, but stop short of doing it to their voters....who are the fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, friends, coworkers, neighbors of everybody else.

Joe Rogan Interview

I finished it this morning. It was hard for me to listen to, simply because he never stays on topic.

The amount of tariffs he wants to use is not small. He loves them, and wants to use them as some kind of deterant against some to do what he wants, or at least said he would in his past presidency.

I was also hoping that he would explain how he'd handle Russia and China, but all he said was that he'd talk to them and they wouldn't dare go against his word. What I wanted to know is what if that doesn't work, what's his plan then. We got nothing.

This was basically a puff piece, which is fine. It is what it is. Anybody looking to get anything more out of it shouldn't get their hopes up.
So you expected him to lay out his plan for ending the Russian-Ukraine war? He explained he didn't want to give away his bargaining strategy and explained how, several times when he was President, he solved things with a phone call. Only an idiot would divulge to the public, his plans to end the war.

He stayed on topic, but he likes to give background to what he's talking about. If he did stray too far, Rogan pulled him back.
