Thursday Overnight Open Thread - November 20, 2025 [Doof]

Howdy Hordelings! Hope your Thursday has been good. The ONT is here to help you close out your day. Come on in!

Sleepy Joe's Birthday

El Rushbo used to call him "Plugs" Biden. I can think of a whole bunch of things to call him, but I won't. Anyway, today is his 83rd birthday. I have no wishes for him, good or bad. How about we just enjoy some of his "greatest" moments?

Here's a longer video from the same folks

And who can forget this brilliance?

Which inspired this greatness

-----

Let's also revisit this highlight of his career

The Presidential dream was one Biden kept alive for years, and as early as 1984 he was tipped to be a Democratic candidate. Following his announcement for candidacy in 1987, Biden was outlined as one of the stronger hopefuls. However this hope wasn’t reflected in the primaries and his performance in the first in Houston, Texas in July received a mixed bag of responses.
Richard Gephardt and Michael Dukakis were Biden’s main rivals for the Democratic ticket in the election, and by August 1987 both were ahead of his. The following month, on September 12, stories were ran in the New York Times and other large publications about a controversy that would bring Joe Biden’s campaign to a grinding halt.
The reports were damning and suggested that Biden had used extracts of a speech made by the Labour Party leader at the Welsh Labour Party Conference in 1985 in his own.

81 million votes in 2020. Don't ever forget it, and don't you DARE question it!

Speaking of Curmudgeons

Yeah, ol' Scranton Joe could certainly be a grump. Coincidentally, on today's Morning Report thread, commenters were talking about curmudgeons. That inspired me feature some rather grouchy folks here tonight. Just a few of the ones I thought of.

Archie Bunker

Mr. Roper (master of breaking the 4th wall)

Grandpa Simpson

Walter!

Hit up the comments to let us know who else fits the bill.

On This Date in History

Avid readers of Compute! magazine may remember this historic event that occurred 40 years ago today.

Windows 1.0 released 40 years ago today - and started Microsoft's road to success

Windows 1.0 officially released to the public 40 years ago today (November 20), and despite its age, still has some common similarities with what users can expect from the operating system today.
Underpinned by the iconic MS-DOS command line, Windows 1.0 is notable in that it specifically required a computer mouse to navigate the graphical user interface (GUI). When the operating system first launched in the US it cost $99, equivalent to just over $296 in today’s dollars.

It's a no go on having our new dishwasher installed before Thanksgiving.

One company will not install dishwashers and the other is booked up until after Thanksgiving.

We are very rural without any handymen around. We love that, but it is difficult to get stuff done.

"I have good news! At my appointment Monday the Doctor said my bloodwork is nearly perfect and my cancer cell count is dropping. I'm in minimal pain. The chemo is working thanks be to God! I will go back in three weeks for another round of chemo and then they will do a CT scan to see if I can have surgery to clean out the rest of the tumors. I am convinced - CONVINCED - that this is due in no small part to the treasured prayers of friends and family! They gave me weeks, and now I'm looking at possible remission."

37 American Revolution Ep 5. This was one that I saw coming. Early war results, including the Brits abandoning Philadelphia. Washington has no ability to get them out of New York. The French navy comes and abandons the seaboard. Brits turn their interests to the south and take Savannah and Augusta. The French navy comes back but doesn't stop for long. THEN, we get to the relatively vast coverage of the slaves and indians. The slaves are caught no matter which way they turn and many southern slaves turn to the Brits. The indians are massively assaulted and many of their towns burned along with crops and trees. Money is tight on both sides. Washington continues to prevail with the troops, but not with the congress. Stay tuned.

40 Gephardt's main problem was that nobody could spell his name. I still have to look it up...
Anyway in 1987 I recall the Demos figured it was Gary Hart[pence]'s turn. Anyone else running then was there to maybe have a shot at 1992. But Hart couldn't chain down his own dick. So, the "seven dwarfs" of 1988 it was.

My second attempt I ended up shooting myself with a crooked arrow.

Concur. They cherrypicked communications to Burns' own end. Was his attack brutal? Yes. Did it reduce the patriots need to defend against indian attacks? Yes.

Living where I do, I have long been aware of much of the USAs indian history. Long story shortened is that we took the land from them and never made a treaty we kept. The indians are getting back to the US with casinos and tax free tobacco, I guess.

When we were doing final clean up at the MoMe, I grabbed your case to put in the lost & found for next year.

Weasel said that was some black powder stuff that Doof was going to give to someone that was shooting black powder rifles and that I should take it.

I swapped out range guns/ammo today for deer guns/ammo and actually opened the case. It does contain black powder, plus a fair bit of .22LR ammo.

What do you want me to do with all of that? I fear there has been a bit of miscommunication.

72 2News submitted public-records requests for the surveillance footage of Robinson walking into the sheriff’s office and any holding-area video.

“We do not have any records responsive to this portion of the request, as Tyler Robinson did not go to or enter the jail area,” a records officer with the Sheriff’s Office told the station.

The station reported, “Holding room video was denied as part of the investigation.”

When pressed with a broader request for any surveillance video of Robinson entering the building, officials suddenly changed their story, claiming the footage no longer exists because it was automatically deleted after the department’s 30-day retention period.

1. He will be Epsteined
or
2. He will be Escaped (gone forever)
or
3. He will be disappeared (like 2 but never existed)

I am going with 3. I think there will be a Jedi Mind Trick and the entire murder will just go away.

I got to "meet" Walter back in the early days of Jeff Dunham's career. Saw Jeff several times at a small comedy club in Baltimore as he was getting his start. He'd come out after the shows and talk to the fans. He brought Walter out one time and let us all talk to him. Such a talented guy. We kinda knew he'd become yuuuuuge.

Every case now is a Test Case on who the Courts can let back into society. Type in a crime in the next major city near you and the arrest record will look like a CVS receipt. 30 or more arrest.
100% of Liberals have no issues with a criminal, low trust mindset as they think that the next case will be about guns (to take them away) or speech (to take that away) or police (no realtime interactions).

100 When pressed with a broader request for any surveillance video of Robinson entering the building, officials suddenly changed their story, claiming the footage no longer exists because it was automatically deleted after the department’s 30-day retention period.

1. He will be Epsteined
or
2. He will be Escaped (gone forever)
or
3. He will be disappeared (like 2 but never existed)

Speaking of, there's an interview of Charlie Kirk's head of security on the Shawn Ryan show that really doesn't make him look good. The rooftop was an area of concern but it seems like the UVU Police Chief told him "we've got you covered" but the security guy never followed up. Didn't ask what that entailed, didn't have anyone check on it, anything. I'm no expert but it just sounds like he dropped the ball. I know hindsight is 20/20 and all that but it seems negligent.

104 Long story shortened is that we took the land from them and never made a treaty we kept.
——

“We” did no such thing, that stuff was all a long, long time ago. Everyone involved is long dead.

Not to put too fine a point on it, but the Indians weren’t all that much into treaties either. One problem, they didn’t have a hierarchical system of formal government. They had Chiefs, but he wasn’t necessarily in charge, per se. The warriors held sway.

When say, a peace treaty was brokered between two warring tribes they often didn’t last long, and the fact that it had failed didn’t seem to faze the signers. “We can’t control those young bucks” was their explanation, and they were probably correct.

But - they still felt they were due the “presents” and payments and the rest of it under the terms of the treaty just the same. They didn’t acknowledge any contradiction there.

161 In more mundane matters, I can report that the natural peanut butter purchases were, in my view, a success - and simply pouring off the excess peanut oil at the top, (save it for frying) and then stirring makes a peanut butter that no longer resembles pancake batter in consistency.

They don’t add any sweeteners, in any of the brands I’ve tried at least. Many of the big brands add mollasses, so it’s not immediately sweet like you might be used to. And some of the natural peanut butter brands skimp a bit too much on the salt. The Kroger branded was good, the Simple Truth not so much. The Adams could use more salt. All of them are a lot more expensive than the hydrogenated oil types. I’m not sure why that is, exactly. I assume they strip off the peanut oil and sell it for more money. Something like that?

167 In a fit of nostalgia I looked up the address where I first grew up on Google Street View. A couple of years ago, the house was still there, altered somewhat but recognizable. Now it’s a parking lot for a bunch of medical clinics. They must have rezoned the neighborhood, although houses still appear a couple of blocks to the south. Plus ça change… My paternal grandmother’s house is still there: it fronts a city park and was in a very desirable neighborhood. I guess it will last a while.

169 It's spooky what cities can do sometimes.
There's entire streets and neighborhoods in downtown Long Beach that are now gone.

OTOH, they actually have some ancient streets downtown that today are barely wide enough for an alley. It's obvious they were built for 1910-size cars. And in nearby Signal Hill, there are spots near old oil derricks where there's a street sign, but no surviving street to be found.

I don't think either house has regular tours since both are occupied by private owners, at least when I was in Liverpool a few years ago.

Lennon's house does have a blue plaque on it. Not sure about McCartney's.

178 "1965: Mike D (Diamond), American rapper, musician, and music producer. He is a founding member of the hip hop group Beastie Boys"

Sabotage was a great, great video. Brings back memories.

Back in the 80s, I was a real nightclub goer. We even had a public access cable show where we'd go to clubs, get free drinks, and hang out in VIP areas just to have fun. It was amazing what a camera could do for you back then.

Anyway, I remember hanging out at the Palladium nightclub on E. 14th St. in NYC (that site is now a dorm at NYU called...Palladium). We were in the Mike Todd Room, which was the VIP club at the place. Beastie Boys did a short set there, where they dressed up as Hasids and rapped a parody of My Adidas called My Big Deli. Hilarious. A great group of guys, and an unforgettable night.

When we moved to Wyoming ten years ago we rented a house for a few years. It was an awesome old house that a lot of cool old fashioned features. It had an ironing board that was built into a wall, that kind of stuff. We loved the house.

The next tenants decided to hook up a ratty ass camper to the electric in the old house and burned down the house.

House was condemned and demolished.

"Natural" peanut butter is the only way to go, both for eating and, especially, for cooking (eg, hot peanut sauce for Indonesian dishes). "Regular" peanut butter is simply peanut-flavored margarine. If the list of ingredients has anything other than peanuts and salt, it's not worth eating.

The Fresh Thyme chain has a store-brand natural peanut butter that is really good. Loblaws (the Canadian chain) has a natural peanut butter in their President's Choice house brand that also is excellent.

188 Only one house (of the 2 houses and 2 apartments) that I lived in before age 18 is still standing . The other 3 have been "urban renewal"ed out of existence. With one, they actually rerouted the street right through where it was.

Urban renewal is where they buy properties in lower class neighborhoods, tear down any structures on them, then sell the bare land for a fraction of what their cost was to the politically connected, usually with some sweetheart (taxpayer-funded) financing to go along with it.
IOW, the usual graft.
