Leperflesh posted:All they can do is attack his credibility, because they're incapable of disputing the facts. Pretty much that. I listened to the opening 5 minutes this morning on NPR as I was pulling up to work and what I gathered from the opener was this is about paying a hooker, sorry adult film star, and a phone call with Assange. NPR kept describing today's events as "bombshell." So, if he would have recorded it and made money on it, then it's totally legit and people aren't supposed to be talking with Assange... Got it, keep on keepin' on congress, good jorb. Also, bombshell should be a code word these days for completely non-newsworthy.

Just no going to get a good reaction when you start dispensing your wisdom with "hey, idiots." I just didn't have the energy to whip out my e-penis yesterday, and ultimately decide to not feed the troll. As I commented, he wouldn't learn or acknowledge that he was wrong regardless. CAT INTERCEPTOR posted:Welp comment is gone now. What? Oh, what a pussy. He did that himself - I didn't delete the comment. He did wander over and slap some stupidity on another of my videos, though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubj_BTvGXVI Adiabatic posted:

General music goon consensus is they suck and I wholeheartedly believe otherwise in no small part due to how awesome this album is. I like Dream Theater when I'm in the mood for Prog Rock, but not a rabid fan. Neat vinyl, though. I do have a Pandora channel with them as a source. cakesmith handyman posted:You sure about that?

Fair point.

I'm hearing that the person that was stalking me about 2 years ago got arrested for stalking someone else a while back. I filed a police report so my incident is on record, I wonder if I should call the detective.

I meant more as a direct result of the respective votes - the Irish border and the economy changes are going to hurt a LOT of people, physically in the case of Ireland. The US was hurting people with their health service, civilian incarceration etc. long before 2016...

Why would you want to be part of that again? Cut yourself out of the weird drama.

Because they avoided the consequences of their actions via some bullshit and I would like to see justice served. If I could extend their stay in jail it would make me smile.

If they are actually facing prosecution, you can be fairly certain that their priors in the system will be reviewed.

Nothing came of my report and there was some fuckery involving their legal name which is how they seemed to avoid being charged. Sounds like that trick stopped working.

Leperflesh posted:In that case, I guess an email can't hurt. Especially if it was in a different state. Oh it was here in town. When I tried to file a protective order (concerned for my wife as they had followed me home) I was told the name I gave them was not their actual, legal name so no order was issued. But for once my prior boss didn't let me down and barred the stalker from the store and went to the mall office and had them banned from the entire property. So I'd kind of forgotten about it until a customer messaged me with a pic asking "isn't this your stalker?" I have no idea what kind of jail time you get for stalking someone but it would be nice if they got punished for what they put me through as well. Edit: The comic shop subjected me to some insane poo poo, being stalked is like a 5 on the weird poo poo o meter.

It's a 00 7.3 - 4r100. It has a rebuilt trans that lost 2nd gear after only a week. Owner gave up and sold it cheap. Wondering what's the best path forward and if there are other trans I should look at swapping in. The 97-00 F250's are known for this issue with the 4r100. I'm not looking to make massive power, I just want a trans that will last 10 years of light duty towing.

Also, I was the one that PM'ed kid sinister to get him involved because I knew he posted in DIY a lot and could hopefully convince the guy that this was a real bad idea. I did NOT realize he would lose all impulse control and go full creepster, threatening to call the guy's local permitting office, lol.

Clearly you've done the right thing and tasted it and decided for yourself, but for your future reference this is pure marketing BS. The whisky will have certainly won an award, most likely paid for in some way. It will not have been judged "best in the world" but more likely won a gold medal (alongside 50 other whiskies also deemed worthy of "gold". Whatever that means) Best case scenario it will have won "best in category", possibly in an astonishingly narrow category. Lidl's marketing team will have then twisted the concept to relate to consumers that their whisky has won "best scotch in the world*" hoping that you'll go drop your hard earned £13.49 on a bottle to see what all the fuss is about. Awards for whiskies and other alcoholic products are handed out like candy at Halloween, usually to those that pay for them. It's a lovely part of the industry and I hate it.
