I don't know what WI people you're dealing with, although I've lived in Madison or the Milwaukee area for my whole life. I wager that there is some self selection going on by visiting The Mall of America. That place is a depressing hellhole.

I've taken to tying the number of Mossy Oak/Realtree Decals and gear to the level of poverty in the region.

Yeah, the thing is WI is solidly average to above average in per capita income. There is poverty, but it's mostly concentrated in urban areas. I'd just chalk it up to a lot of hicks living in northern WI or Minnesota. Fargo (TV and movie) is a pretty great take on the culture of the rural upper Midwest.

The only way I see NK being 'fixed' is if China takes his rear end out on a state visit or something meanwhile they sit down all their generals and explain how its gonna work. Thats probably the only way we end the dynasty without getting shitloads of South Koreans killed.

And I don't know what WI people you've been dealing with, but the small army of F-450s and Dodge Ram Super Cabs that invade Bloomington every weekend don't drive here from Iowa. And yes, the MOA is a depressing hellhole. Where else can you buy a $50 spray-on gold watch and bear witness to a bum fight while eating Panda Express?

God, I remember as a kid in the 90's that place always getting hyped up for no apparent reason and how it was this great mall that was also like a theme park. Also it had the only Lego store for years. Though the adult in me realizes it sounds like a total shithole both then and now. Kid me also knew it couldn't compare to the West Edmonton Mall that I got to go every time we went to go visit my grandparents.

I used to stay after school when I was in early elementary school and we were poor and my mom had to work like 70 hours a week so that I could eat food and not die. Hopefully they cut those programs so people like me will go hungry.

Reverand maynard posted:Short of the US invading, how does North Korea fix itself? Coup? Hope Jim Jong-un has no male heirs and then wait for him to die? Wait until everyone literally starves to death then simply repopulate it? Annihilate the entire country after they launch a fizzled nuclear weapon? Honestly? Best case scenario is that they have a military clique off Un and take over with one of the other kids as a figurehead and then pull a Burma and agree to scrap their nukes/drug mills/whatever for a couple of really fat aid packages from the US and China. Let them stay independent and develop their economy without some crazed fattie at the top loving things up. Pretty sure that it was fear of that happening which prompted Un to have his brother murdered.

facialimpediment posted:Welcome to history, y'all. I don't see anything coming of this. Honestly, I think the whole issue of CRIMINALLY INVESTIGATING the president and his campaign's efforts is a massive waste of time. I personally, with my own eyes and ears witnessed a candidate for president praise the hacking of their opponent, and ask for more. That's all the shameful and shady poo poo I need to know, and while I realize that may not be in breach of any legal statute, I don't really think this continuous horse-beating is really helping anything, because I don't think there's anything there. The president said "Yo, please hack my opponent", and the Russians were like "lol, we were doing so anyway". The president losing his poo poo on Twitter over this makes me think there MAY actually be something more there. OR IS THAT WHAT HE WANTS ME TO THINK?

If Comey doesn't say another thing, Donnie's hosed, or someone in his orbit is hosed. That's because Comey has something and is saving it. If Comey says more, it's just political poo poo and nothing will come of it. That's because it has been investigated and there isn't anything much there. We don't know which one it is yet.

The irony is that my sister is a mini-Paul Ryan in that she's *~conservative~* and think's we shouldn't give money away. It was a lot nicer when it first opened, and Camp Snoopy was awesome. For a long time it was a 'shopping destination', where you could buy stuff no one else had. Vintage records, designer labels, Italian shoes and four major department stores under one roof? Break out the 90's-era credit cards that had high interest and annual fees with no rewards! But Camp Snoopy got shut down after they lost the rights to Peanuts, Bloomingdale's pulled out the day after their lease was up, Sears is on life support and will (probably) be shutting down for good this year, and people realized they could buy the same stuff or better online for a lot less. Today it functions as a major tourist trap, daytime homeless shelter and place to wait after your flight is delayed.
