    I don't believe Carson was ever even remotely in the running. Good tactic though. They throw out some names of batshit crazy, basically non-functional people, pretend like they're being considered, and when they end up not being the choice people are fooled into feeling relieved about choices that are probably worse and definitely more sinister, but not so openly cuckoo bananas.
    What happened to Kasich? Too rational? Didn't grab enough p***y in his 50's?
    Kasich didn't vote for Trump....he's on the outs
    Most likely on the revenge list...

    and yes, your country is being taken from you, you fucking idiots. by people who did their homework in school. by people who get up every morning and work their asses off until they can't work anymore.

    all i've seen in the people that whine about losing their country is ENTITLEMENT.

    how bout you fucking pick up a book instead of that god damn X-box? And if reading cramps your style, just do anything else besides putting on that ridiculous looking headgear and pretending like you are solider.

    This is a theory from someone who doesn't read much.
    not trying to present any theories here or even suggest that I'm an avid reader...Just observations over the last 20 years going back to college when these types of games rose to prominence.
    Saying it's a result of the younger generation is a bad theory. Tying in video games is odd. And did you observe gen x with Atari and Nintendo?
    it's the way these games have found a way to consume people's lives for day's on end. i've seen countless people kicked out of school for giving priority to a game console over a final exam. dont get me wrong, i fucked around a lot in school. i still fuck around a lot.

    it's a little judgmental, i know...but really, when you go to a 35 year old man's house, and he basically ignores everyone in the room (kids, friends etc) cuz he's busy playing Call of Duty or whatever, I see something a bit off. Oh and not to mention hogging the TV. Us liberals are tired of watching John Oliver on a laptop. I am want my 80" 5k back!!!! hahahah

    That Atari, Nintendo generation games never had the internet or even computational power to make games like we've from PS, Xbox and PC platforms. so, there's no comparison.
    I'm still not sure what your video game theory has to do with the election. And maybe you're a bit young, but I saw many people consumed with Atari and Nintendo.
    again, you can't compare the level of immersive violence and collaboration these games bring. innovative, yes. entertaining, yes. does they contribute to groupthink and a tendency to embrace the so called alt-right. i believe so. but that's my opinion.

    i don't mind being called ignorant either. i just want one of you to explain to me a how you can vote for a p***y grabber who doesn't say what he means?
    I don't expect you to track my posts in here, but I wouldn't vote for trump even with a gun to my head. I'm still putting together why people voted for him. The theme seems to be that they suspended whatever ability they had to think critically.

    I was trying to reference this thread and give some humour since the OP in no longer w/ us.
    Maybe it's time to end this thread w/ a close...
    Trump is done

    Where is the OP?

    Has GF been banned?

    You'll have to forgive me and my granny panties. I'm usually pretty sharp on the intake, but I just didn't recognize your post as something humorous- you're on a slightly different page than I these days.

    To the topic... Trump is orange lol. Oh yeah... sexist and racist as well! I would like to say something about the fact that women alone had enough voting power to knock the orange pussy grabber out in the 1st round... but I won't. I wouldn't want to offend those women that are okay with such an obscenity.
    Yup he was. Lukin2006 as well.
    Took his hate a tad too far (gf)
    Maybe it's just a 60 or 90 day rip
    Also muskydan and cliffy.
    Not trying to gossip, just information.
    I am sorry to learn that Cliffy was banned.
    yes, children. we are all adults now. we have to pretend like nothing bothers and we are all about unity. seriously, fuck that. we are at a new low in this country. A known p***y grabbing, racist man with no plan is now president of the world's largest superpower. He might 'succeed' that's fine. But at what point did winning become more important than being decent?

    This seems pretty contradictory...
    Are we supposed to be brothers, all about unity and being decent, or are we supposed to say fuck that?

    This is a difficult time, I have had as much trouble keeping it decent as anybody has.
    My natural inclination is to say, "so we want to be a country that speaks it's mind without regard for decency? We want to be done with PC? Ok, well here's what the fuck I think about you fuckers..."
    But, sinking to Trump's level is not the solution.

    The mods have a job to do, it's as simple as that.
    just want explanations. i am not Anderson Cooper or Oprah and so I have the luxury of being a little bitch about this.

    A reminder. When referring to the sexual assault and using the P word, please ghost it because we are an all-ages forum and it is offensive. Thank you.

    I keep wanting to give Trump the benefit of the doubt but I'm concerned. I think we are on the verge of a major political disaster.

    Oil prices are complete bullshit - they mean nothing about anybody besides the fuckers running the oil and gas companies (of course Trump invests in them). Gas prices are a complete scam at all times, whether they're high or low.

    The oil and gas industry has been hurting for a long time now due to low crude and NG prices.

    I'm not sad about it.

    I say the higher gas prices are the better. I actually support artificially high gas prices (well, no, because of where the money goes... but i would if the money went somewhere useful), or a bunch of taxes tacked onto the price. Anything that encourages people to drive less is a-okay in my book. If people could be priced out of the gasoline market and forced to find alternatives, that would be good in the long run IMO. I know most disagree with me, so sorry about my opinion, lol. I realize almost everyone has what they consider great and logical reasons for needing to drive everywhere ... I just think people and their lives have become way too dependent on gasoline. I say tax the living shit out of gasoline and parking and put that money straight into public transit development.

    Taxing is fine by me! When gas prices are high the energy companies go nuts with extraction, but people drive less.
    It's a give and take, for sure.

    One thing that I am always conscious of is the differing opinions and goals of people who live in urban vs rural areas.
    You live in a place where getting around without driving ranges from easy to difficult but possible.
    Where I live, it is impossible.
    Where I live is also where the food "you" eat is produced.
    When gas prices go up, food prices do too. We pay remarkably little for our food here in the "western" bubble, so increases aren't so terrible, but eliminating fossil fuels is going to be a very difficult problem that will require people to abandon long held habits.
