Almost all NFL games are played on Sunday, hence Monday morning quarterbacking.

It's a prime example of ideology over reality. Yeah, I love how Keynes' economics has in some circumstances had flawed predictions but in general seems to work in practice, whereas the Austrian school has beautifully consistent theorems that frequently fall over when exposed to the real world. We've been doing this Supply Side poo poo for at least forty years, we have lots of evidence the theory doesn't match the practice.

See, that's just it; there is a gently caress load of Actually Real Proof from the Real World of Reality on the Real Earth that the austerity Austrian economists love so much has disastrous results while Keynsian economics aren't perfect but actually work pretty well most of the time. The Austrian school just goes "well nobody has used our ideas hard enough yet. The problem is them not us."

I don’t think “black people” is in their vocabulary.

Nerd happiness is WAY higher around age 20, wth. That's when you go to college and get a clean slate w/o your high school bully-down baggage and can plaster your dorm room with posters of shows you enjoyed at age 9, and play video games w/out your parents telling you to go the gently caress to bed
