And the shooter incident here in Colorado, the one out in West Bumfuck county or somewhere, the guy killed a sheriff's deputy and another is in bad shape but alive, yeah, he's a poster boy for the Democrats.

Trump's bothered by the word fuck.
Really? Ages ago I had a job to manage in Manhattan. My employer supplied many truckloads of custom windows to a job Trump was doing on Central Park South at 6th Ave. I was one of many subs and attended the periodic site meetings, run by Trump's project manager, a woman, 45 or so, who always had her assistant, a guy in his 30s, alongside. That woman was the most foul-mouthed construction exec I had ever run across, and in that biz, mouths are all quite foul. Every other word was fuck. I figured it came from the top at Trump. But I guess it bothers him now. Sure. Posted by: the littl shyning man at February 25, 2016 11:28 PM (U6f54) Posted by: Yellowstone Caldera at February 25, 2016 11:28 PM (NGd+i) 114

Posted by: Burn It Down at February 25, 2016 11:29 PM (qHgBB) The thought just occurred to me. Say you were on a website years ago. You were banned. What idiot goes back to the website using the same name? I mean, I'd think you'd have better things to do than go back to a website that banned you, period, purely out of pride. I was banned from a website one time on the internet. I've never been back, because, f'k them. But what sort of attachment would you have to insist on using the same name? Greg, you gotta admit that's pretty f'king stupid. Apparently, it actually is him, though. Posted by: AD at February 25, 2016 11:34 PM (QWY55) 142

The sidebar about the Atlantic meteor reminded me of something I meant to say earlier.
I would like to point out that had the Chelyabinsk meteor struck LA instead of a high latitude Russian city, the resulting more direct route toward the ground instead of the glancing path it did take would have resulted in far more damage than did occur. Maybe a hundred thousand people would have been killed and most of the city would have been flattened. Incoming asteroids do far more blast damage along the flight path than along side of it - plus the more direct path toward the ground would have meant the meteor would have been closer to the ground when it exploded. By the way the people telling you that the Russian meteor was a once per century event are - surprise - lying. The actual number is closer to once per 10 years. Most of these strike over the ocean and they are generally ignored. Posted by: An Observation at February 25, 2016 11:43 PM (bzIWr) 180

Not sure if this is intended to be humorous or not. Just because the IRS is a corrupt government department riddled with democrats and in league with the DNC does not mean that every decision that the IRS makes is part of a grand strategy.

That cereal article is hysterical but I don't think much of it makes sense. It claims that kids don't eat cereal because they have to clean the bowl but then goes on to say that most kids aren't made to do any chores (on top of which many households let their kids just throw bowls in the dishwasher) which seems to contradict the anti-cereal reason they cited. I have yet to see any kid who is put off by some abstract need to wash a dish.
I think that delicious, tasty cereals are suffering because of the general attacks on all things good and tasty. The kids are admonished by their demented teachers not to eat sugar or sugary cereals and all the McDonalds type places don't even offer any good food for kids any more (do you want apple slices or broccoli with your burger? Apple juice or soy milk?). Any kid left to himself would eat nothing but cereal, especially if it's Apple Jacks or Fruit Loops or Lucky Charms (with most of the grain pieces taken out).

OT, I posted this this morning on the art thread and Ace's first post. I wanted to post it one last time on Maet's great ONT so the night shift see's it too:
I've been pretty combative and full of vitriol towards Trump and my fellow Morons lately. I got off my computer yesterday feeling frustrated and disappointed by all the Trump support. I feel it's foolish to put so much expectation and hope in that man. What bothered me the most is my attitude toward you guys. AosHQ and you Morons are my little slice of heaven I have everyday from all the crap that happens in the political world and I love the camaraderie here. Point is I'm sorry for being such a bastard lately. You guys are weird and wonderful and so what if you guys like Trump? Ace doesn't call us Morons for nothing, right? So here's my heartfelt apology to the Horde, I'm sorry to those I've pissed off. I'm sorry to the lurkers who've been turned off by it. With that said I'll tell you my feelings on Trump.

s'fine. There's been too much war among the Horde lately, and it's nice to see someone apologizing. I think we've all, no matter what side we're on, gotten a little too heated about it from time to time. When you get down to it, we're left with nothing but a bunch of question marks about everyone. You can't truly know what a man will do with power until he has it, and at that point, it's too late. The people who made this country were wise to hand out as few powers as possible, and hand them out piecemeal. One day, we'll have to figure out how to get back to that. But it won't be today, and tomorrow's not looking good either. Keep the faith, hold onto hope. This is God's world, and we know how it all turns out in the end. Spoiler alert, the assholes lose.

Maet -- what part of quoting is problematic? -- is it where a cob holds the nic in front of TBH3K to catch the scent?; is it the content?; is it the timestamp and sig block? Is it that noting their existence at all redoubles their efforts? I think we're mostly all on Team Cob here, and are willing to do what is best to thwart the trolls, but it is awkward for commenters to merely try and pretend they don't exist -- especially without a full appreciation of why this might be the optimal tactic.

You know that German word for having a face worthy of a punch?
Zuckerberg's does that for me. It's not the money and not that he's so young it's that you can tell he thinks he's a f**king genius of the Universe because he is smart and had an idea that took off. Somehow suddenly he's all knowing about everything and the world should totes listen to him. I remember Bill Gates being like that but the social network wasn't available to spread his stupidity around for all to see. As it's grown and he's got older, we get a glimpse of what it would've been like and it's just like how Zuckerberg is acting now. And NO. George Lucas isn't the luckiest man alive, Bill Gates is.

It did change. This was your hash for the posts that got modded: Posted by: Blano at February 26, 2016 12:47 AM (uiVGU) That IP (that got the hash "uiVGU") is blocked, evidently. Have no idea what Opera is. Posted by: Blano at February 26, 2016 01:12 AM (sdPF/) A browser. Lots of people use it on phones and tablets and it has a feature to save them bandwidth that sends them through a proxy server and compresses the pages. There aren't all that many of these proxy servers so if some troll was coming through one and got banned you will end up on the same banned IP list via the proxy server. You can check your IP by going to any "what is my IP" website. Some of them will show the true IP you are coming from and some will show the proxy. Pixy identifies the proxy, so it's easy to be mistakenly banned if your browser happens to send you through one of them. Posted by: ThePrimordialOrderedPair at February 26, 2016 01:17 AM (zc3Db) 536

Hi,
I'm here only to offer Thank You to my AoS friends & others who prayed, so lovingly or beautifully for my friend Gayle that I & Sherry & Cthulhu & more that I can think of, Sherry also asked for Tuesday night/Wednesday morning,on ONT. Thank you. Sherry has had two losses & I apologize for not seeing it until Wednesday when it was daylight. Sherry I'm very sorry that that effing disease took your fiancée. Gayle fell at a hospital Monday while her husband Paul was packing up car to take her home for 4-6 days. She was trying to use ladies room. Now she's unresponsive & I hope that's a good sign that she's not in any pain. Thank you, I didn't see all that early in the morning, I responded to Ace post at 2:53 am or approximately that time. Please pray for Gayle & her husband Paul ( Paul & her children probably need more prayers than Gayle now) Thank you,Carol Posted by: Carol at February 26, 2016 02:14 AM (sj3Ax) 579

*Laughs and points at IL residents, as a +former+ IL resident*
SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) -- In the latest twist in Illinois' financial crisis, the state is getting a windfall of $1.2 million - and growing - thanks to its decision to stop mailing reminders to motorists to renew their license plate stickers. You see, in previous years the state would send out reminder notices (like most states do, I suspect) that it is time to renew your plates. In IL, there is a $20 fine if you fail to renew within 30 days of expiration. So by stopping sending of the notices, they are reaping a windfall of many more late fines from the unsuspecting rubes, er citizens, of IL. *Laughs and points at IL residents, as a +former+ IL resident* Posted by: GnuBreed at February 26, 2016 02:40 AM (gyKtp) 587

Plus I am really relying on Acetaminophen as a prescription tells me to avoid NSAIDS and mixing that with alcohol is a spectacularly not good idea.

On the way we came across numerous orange barrels and each had a sign _just_ before it announcing a 10 mph drop in the speed limit along with a sign saying ot was camera enforced.

Bete: did you check w/ your pharmacist?
technically acetaminophen is a NASID too... "Acetaminophen (a seet" a min' oh fen), which is known as paracetamol in Europe, is an aminophenol that is believed to act centrally as an analgesic and antipyretic agent. While technically a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID), acetaminophen unlike typical NSAIDs (ibuprofen, naproxen, indomethacin) has only minor effects on tissue cyclooxygenase activity (Cox-1 and Cox-2) and appears to produce analgesia by increasing pain thresholds, perhaps through inhibition of the nitric oxide pathway which is activated by many pain neurotransmitter receptors. Acetaminophen has lower antiinflammatory activity than aspirin or typical NSAIDs. " from the NIH website Posted by: redc1c4 at February 26, 2016 03:02 AM (Nf7bW) 602

Bete: did you check w/ your pharmacist?
Posted by: redc1c4 at February 26, 2016 03:02 AM (Nf7bW) Yep. I got my prescription from Wally World and have had 4 different pharmacists now- the first said nothing about "do not take with", the second said "Don't take with Aspirin" (as I was buying a 500 ct bottle at the same time), the third offered nothing new and the 4th said all the traditional NSADIS (Asprin, Ibuprofen, etc) were right out but I could use Acetaminophen. Which is wonderful as I've gone through an almost 500 ct bottle of Ibuprofen while on this prescription. So my confidence in the consistency at Wally is near my confidence that the GoPe will stick to its "No judicial hearing before the election" pledge right now.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) -- In the latest twist in Illinois' financial crisis, the state is getting a windfall of $1.2 million - and growing - thanks to its decision to stop mailing reminders to motorists to renew their license plate stickers.
You see, in previous years the state would send out reminder notices (like most states do, I suspect) that it is time to renew your plates. In IL, there is a $20 fine if you fail to renew within 30 days of expiration. So by stopping sending of the notices, they are reaping a windfall of many more late fines from the unsuspecting rubes, er citizens, of IL. *Laughs and points at IL residents, as a +former+ IL resident* Posted by: GnuBreed at February 26, 2016 02:40 AM Doesn't surprise me. One time I failed to renew my driver's license. Didn't know until we went on vacation and I tried to rent a car. Boy was the wife pissed when she had to do all the driving! For some reason my county wasn't listed and so I never got a reminder. Hi VIA. *waves* What are you doing up at this unearthly time? Posted by: Farmer at February 26, 2016 06:34 AM (o/90i) 645

If this continues I may have to just DC the daily news links. My guess is that less than half the Morons here actually read them anyway. In fact, my guess is at least 25% of the audience here don't read any comments, they just post and move on. When I can't keep up with the comments on some of these threads as fast as I read there have to be a LOT of people who do nothing but post.

In Ill you now register online for a reminder to get new plates and in my area, a reminder for emissions testing. I can see a lot of people will have expired tags this year and any money saved (bullshit) on not doing the mail outs, will be sucked up by cops pulling over expired tags.

"donktards pandering and the most stupid change to the Il Constitution
will guarantee that Il will be the first State to declare bankruptcy." Tim The best, or maybe only way to change things is to show public unions are fraudulent quid quo pro operations, and they give unfair advantages to for their union dues. As obvious as that is, they have run the state for so long it will take something extreme to release us from the Chicago mob. Blago went to prison, then Quinn got in winning three or four counties, but only needs Cook. Now we got Rauner who seems to be standing up to the Democrats that still dominates the legislature. But a deal made with the unions to reduce their freebies was fought in court and Illinois lost. So all those golden entitlements that went underfunded for decades are supposed to be paid out. Now Chicago wants some bailouts from the state as well. Jesse Jackson's son is out of the big house and in the half way house, but all the "Jesse hires" are still sucking in their checks. If the economy (finally) turns after so much easy money manipulation, we are in a worse position than most of the country. Worst credit rating in the country.

He wasn't in the room when the Senate voted on Loretta Lynch, was elsewhere when they voted for Choom Boy's Iranian nuke deal. In essence, that was two "yea" votes for the Choom Gang.

Good Morning Morons. Today is Friday, February 26, 2016. Today will be cut short because I have a doctor's appointment early this morning. Also, I am going to do something a little different with the "day in history" thing. I am going to use the same one from last year and you will see why.
On this day in 1987 the Tower Commission "rebuked" RR over the Iran-Contra deal. Compare Iran-Contra to the general lawlessness of the current administration. Now we have an administration where the major lieutenants are using the IRS as a political weapon, lying to congress, ignoring court orders, giving weapons to Mexican drug dealers which they use to shoot and kill border patrol agents and al infinitem. The list of felonies and lawbreaking is so large it would take too long to list them. So what is the difference?

A special counsel accuses the IG office of a lax investigation into the VA. She even went so far as to say the IG went after the whistleblowers that ratted them out in the first place. Having worked in QA for a few years (expected rotation for senior people) I can tell you that is a VERY serious allegation. It can even result in criminal charges in some cases. But the other thing about this charge is that, if born out, it would be indicative of heavy pressure from above to cover up VA malfeasance. If I were doing the investigation into this that is exactly the string I would be pulling. It would probably be a waste of time though, since impeachment is off the table, even for sub-lieutenants.

Finally; a group of false charging blacks get what the asked for. The stupid bents charged whites with assault and making racial slurs (hate crime). After review of the us video (bet they didn't know the camera was there) the police found that not only was there no attack by whites and no racial slurs by whites, but the blacks were actually the aggressors who attacked the whites. There is no word on racial slurs by the blacks because probably the camera had no sound, but I'll bet there were plenty. Incredibly the blacks have been charged with a misdemeanor for making a false police report (this would have been a felony in SC) and two black girls were charged with misdemeanor assault. Good thing this did not go to a University star panel.

It seems that Iowa had this hidden law that prevented parents from teaching their children gun shooting and safety because it made children handling a gun a crime. The legislature fielded a bill to correct this and of course the anti-gun nuts, big mommy government freaks, and general idiots have come out of the woodwork to oppose it . . . in the name of safety of course.

Seattle not satisfied with running the hamburger heavens out of town now wants to get the city involved in how employers build the schedules for workers. Seattle is really turning into a Fascist empire. If you think these proposed rules are "reasonable" just remember one thing, in most cases these rules always start out reasonable but after a while the idiocy always creeps in. The secret is to never ever let the camel's nose into the tent. But some people never learn that.

__________________________ It's also against the law (and the constitution) for Obama to issue executive order amnesties to millions of illegal aliens (as both Obama himself admitted, and two federal courts have since confirmed), yet Loretta went in front of the senate and testified during her AG confirmation hearings that she had no problem with Obama's EO's. And yet those assholes still went ahead and voted to confirm Lynch as the nation's top law enforcement officer. And they still can't understand why American voters are so pissed off.
