You are a state by the proper definition of such.

state
steɪt
noun
1.
the particular condition that someone or something is in at a specific time.
"the state of the company's finances"
synonyms: condition, shape, situation, circumstances, state of affairs, position; More
2.
a nation or territory considered as an organized political community under one government.
"Germany, Italy, and other European states"
synonyms: country, nation, land, sovereign state, nation state, kingdom, empire, republic, confederation, federation, body politic, commonwealth, power, world power, superpower, polity, domain, territory; More

Finally, my International Relations degree is good for something other than teaching English in Asia.

Fun fact: the term "dorp" means a small town in Dutch and Afrikaans. The Dutch were the first Europeans to settle on the land that is now New York City, and there's a town called New Dorp on Staten Island! :eng101: Dutch is a cute language.

If you like listening to people with something stuck in their throat, then yes, it's cute. The word gegiechel means giggle, and you would expect it to sound jovial, but it sounds like a second of white noise followed by an l.

The point of the sandwich video is that you buy freshly baked bread which makes any lovely sandwich palatable, while if you prepare your sandwiches at home, your read is not as fresh by lunch. But it's still dumb as gently caress.

I am not a fan of everything Kanye does, but I did change my opinion of him after listening to more of his stuff. Mainly he is ridiculous and self-obsessed, and that goes into everything he puts out. He's solipsism and egotism in human form. Nobody's had it tougher or worked harder. Nobody's ever turned less into more. He slips between self-awareness and obliviousness, sometimes in the same song. Sometimes he's trite, sometimes he's surprisingly profound, but he's never apologetic.

Maybe you would like the song "power," which features all of his strengths!

Essentially he is ridiculous enough for this to make sense:


I hate when a perfectly good simple gag gets ruined by carelessness.

Like ... are they trying to pull off some second level pun there? Am I out of the loop for not knowing who Kayne is? :saddowns:

Ehh, specifically two scoops is the reference, though.

quote:

The waiters know well Trump’s personal preferences. As he settles down, they bring him a Diet Coke, while the rest of us are served water, with the Vice President sitting at one end of the table. With the salad course, Trump is served what appears to be Thousand Island dressing instead of the creamy vinaigrette for his guests. When the chicken arrives, he is the only one given an extra dish of sauce. At the dessert course, he gets two scoops of vanilla ice cream with his chocolate cream pie, instead of the single scoop for everyone else. The tastes of Pence are also tended to. Instead of the pie, he gets a fruit plate.

Speaking as an Arkansan for his entire relevant political presence, the only time Huckabee was ever either literate or funny was when someone else was writing his material.
