Why do they think we care?

The Oscars is now as irrelevant as a steam engine... 

The 2020 Oscar swag bag contains a $78K trip to Antarctica


Like I said. Relevant? Nah.

The Hard Rock Casino in Vegas is shutting down. Finally.


I think the concept is overplayed and somewhat dated now. The franchise is now owned by the Seminole Indian Nation. 

Fans of the Hard Rock brand in Las Vegas may well not have seen the last of it, with new owners Virgin selling off furniture from the hotel rooms. A two-room package including beds and televisions can be had for $800.

It's about time they stop handing out OUR money.


These dooshtools never ever ask us what we think they should do with the money they rob from us - why should they? They're SO much smarter than we are...

President Trump will move for a dramatic $11.7 billion cut in foreign aid in his annual federal budget set to be released this week. The proposed 21 percent cut is in-line with Trump’s “America First” mantra and will be achieved largely by scrapping economic development aid to other countries, officials said.

“Every country gets this type of development aid [and] we don’t think it serves a significant purpose to be able to continue it,” a senior administration official said. “Obviously this is a priority of the president.” Government data show $4.5 billion was appropriated for economic development in fiscal year 2019, with the top recipient, Jordan, getting $765 million. But officials say it is often wasted.

“We’re cutting $4,800 to send American artists to a poetry festival in Finland … and $10,000 to support the Muppet Retrospectical in New Zealand,” another official said. The first official added: “The Bob Dylan statue in Mozambique, the cricket league in Afghanistan, these are things that we just think are wasteful, and they’re largely funded out of economic development.”

Other cuts to foreign aid will include reduced funding to the PEPFAR anti-HIV program. “We think it’s important to start to pull back. In a situation with trillion- dollar deficits, we can no longer afford that,” an official said. Some federal exchange programs are also expected to be cut.

Yeah - that's my kinda luck.

Do you think it's unrealistic of me to think that there's a real civil war heading our way?

Florida man arrested after van driven through GOP voter registration tent

The man, Gregory William Loel Timm, 27, faces two counts of aggravated assault on a person 65 or older, one count of criminal mischief and one count of driving on a suspended license, the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office said in a statement.

The Republican Party of Duval County said it had set up the voter drive Saturday at a shopping center in Sandalwood, a neighborhood of Jacksonville.


At 2:45 p.m., the group tweeted, a van accelerated into a crowd of volunteers, "intentionally" targeting them. Nobody was injured. The driver sped away after making obscene gestures, the group said. Photos posted by the group showed the tent on its side and signs for President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence scattered across a parking lot.

The White Castle way to dress.


I can get frozen ones at Publix but man, I'd kill to have a White Castle drive-up near me. The closest one is 70 miles from here.

Speaking of burgers, I got one of these from my mother about 15 years ago. I use it for burgers obviously, but also do Cuban Samiches and Pennini on it. 

Steaks for some reason don't work as well but wtf - that's not what it's for anyway. 

Here's a good one - take a look:

Back in the day, these guys defined what it meant to be cool. Nowadays, a guy in a dress is thought to be trendy and hip. Just shoot me. Now.

These people actually believe we give a flying fuck.


This is the female entity who sang and danced the first number of the show. I was really enjoying it until she decided it was very important to let me know that she is a BLACK (I had that one) QUEER woman. As if I gave a fuck about either. Went to bed after that comment.

Do you care if she's black or queer? 


Of course you would. You're both vote whores.

Romney and his sons were riding around in this ridiculous rig. The year was 2007. The presidential election was heating up and Mitt Romney was campaigning across the country to become the Republican nominee for president.

What a fucking dooshtool this guy turned out to be, huh?
