  1. "Despite creating some confusion with his remarks, Trump did not call the coronavirus itself a hoax." https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/trump-coronavirus-rally-remark/ And If he thinks it a hoax, then pretty odd he signed an $8 billion dollar bill to contain the virus. No. She liked a post where someone ELSE said they would. Definitely a stupid thing to do. Not the same as saying she would do it. Tho I agree she was being sarcastic and that the headline was a bit misleading, she responded with #solidarity. Do you people know what solidarity means? I wonder if any of her followers believe in solidarity, yet may not be as sarcastic?
  2. Then why is it you that has such a problem with the facts that Phil posted? My original post that started all this was independent enough - and fairly accurate, apparently.
  3. He clearly quoted the text and provided a linked citation which is more than what most people here care to bother with. They just spout their BS and expect everyone to take their word for it. It's refreshing to have these links as a decent starting place, especially for those of us that don't have time to sail around on their yacht all day talking shit on the internet. The last poster that I can remember to cite this many sources was nerdgirl.
  4. Damn, thanks for all the info Phil. Much appreciated!
  5. How very American of you. You have the developed worlds most unfair health care system. With the poorest average outcomes. And you want to blame it on the rest of the world. No that's not what I'm doing at all. Your ability to accurately comprehend some posts here is just about as bad as your political predictions.
  6. Part of me wonders if our high costs are subsidizing other countries indirectly. Also, are these high costs essential to the quality of medicine and development of pharmaceuticals? If the U.S had a system similar to other countries, would the high costs then be spread out and passed on to other countries?
  7. Don't you know - its not about what you pay for them now. They are socialist entities and the public needs to pay for them. They pay for them when they are made available for them. No, I don't know what you're talking about. I'm just saying that these costs should be built into the cost of the room that insurance should pay. And even if some insurances do pay, why is the hospital trying to make a profit off cable TV and phones that people didn't ask for or may not even use? I mean the hospitals are charging at least 5 times more in two weeks for TV than what cable companies charge for 1 month. I mean it's almost as ridiculous if they started charging you for toilet paper and sending you electric/water bills for your hospital stay.
  8. I think the key word you're missing there is "affordable." Do you think it's affordable for cancer patients to be billed $200 for 2 weeks of TV (40 stations) and $100 for a room phone regardless of whether or not they even used them? How much do you pay for cable per month? How many stations do you get? How much do you pay for your landline per month?

    Sounds like good news, but is the info coming out of China reliable at this point?

    Also wanted to add that it might be wise to do an absentee ballot this year just in case things get worse or if you'd rather not be around the crowds.

    Kinda like choosing to avoid cruise ships... Be smarter than the virus! We've considered going on a cruise in December, January, February and now maybe in April, but in every instance it just seemed like a bad time to go, especially now. I wonder how this will affect the polls and which side it'll affect more. So far Biden supporters seem fearless: https://www.realclearpolitics.com/elections/betting_odds/democratic_2020_nomination/ Scared money never wins. . .
  12. What about child support? This is California - I've heard the horror stories about "father's rights." I mean if you don't pay don't they shake you down and toss your ass out naked in the middle of skid row or something?
  13. Hi Coreece, If this is a fact. how is it you know this? Because it is both you and John that typically are the ones talking about penises when we're talking about guns. You referred to gun owners as having a "dick stretcher delusion"
  14. That was citing an article by a psychologist Lol, still trying to wiggle out, eh John? The part I quoted was not from the article. Those were YOUR words. And that article is really about the association of the penis to weapons, and therefore applies more to you than it does Brent or any other gun owner.
  15. Citation? https://www.dropzone.com/forums/topic/266065-stupid-firearm-accident-thread/?do=findComment&comment=4866020
  16. I know you're joking around, but again, as in the other thread awhile back wrt law enforcement, I think you're ignoring the idea of having discretion. (or perhaps even grace) Also, you don't know if he used the new system and gave him a warning shot. In any event, Bill has seemed to be consistently more lenient when dealing with attacks against himself as apposed to attacks against other posters, which IMO is rather admirable.
  17. I didn't mention "dick" or "penis". YOU inferred that. John Kallend: "Owning a gun in compensation for penile inadequacy" So no, it was a little bit more than just an inference. You just weasel word things like that so you can try wiggling your way out when needed - otherwise why not just be a straight up guy and say what you really mean in the fist place?
  18. Yep, and they get it. Capitalism in action. I know, that's why it's so fucking mad. . . but to each their own I guess.
  19. Hey, it's Pink Floyd, give us a break. Their albums have been the soundtrack to people's lives for about three generations!
  20. Usually poor whites venture to trailer parks, but in Santa Cruz trailers can cost 600k - no shit, that's fucking mad. Cheapest one I saw with a quick search was like 3k per month, so that would be a no go for her.
  21. Also, it's curious that it always seems to be John and Jerry that are preoccupied with penises when the subject comes up.

    Nah, no worries Phil. And in the future I'll try to respond to you with more substantive replies. Seriously tho, welcome back. Cheers!
  23. Given all the sentiments shared here lately, I think an appropriate song for the Bonfire would be wish you were here. . .

    How about LSHS - Laughing So Hard I Snorted Do you think. It will catch on?
