When I was a teenager my friend had all these Big Johnson t shirts and one of them said “Liquor up front, poker in the rear!” and even as a kid I thought what kind of asshole wears this in public
It's like watching a Catholic priest interact with a possessed object or a virologist working on a petri dish of smallpox.
These people have a deep seated ontological fear of these things.
It represents everything their worldview abhors.
A neoliberal cognito hazard.
Also fun trivia that Caesar's famous line during the event ,"the die is cast" was him quoting a comedic play from the Greek playwright Menander. He was going to make history or die trying and did the ancient equivalent of quoting the Simpsons

Listen, the first time I ever went paintballing when I was about twelve I did that to stay low to the ground and move through cover to avoid being seen. It’s a perfectly intuitive way of moving that does not require military training.
Charmaine sees through the whole Mafia fantasy, refuses to be impressed by it, and never sells her dignity for status
On a show built to make you love a charming monster, she's the one who won't laugh at the jokes. She makes Artie turn down the gifts. She calls the restaurant what it would become if Tony got his hooks in. A front
Melfi judges Tony from outside the world. Charmaine does it from inside it. Same block, same schools, dated him before Carmela did, and still says no
A lot of people found her exhausting for exactly that reason. She's the friction in a fantasy everyone else is enjoying. She keeps her family out of it while Carmela sells hers off in installments and calls it providing
The show never gives her a speech. She's just standing there being the road Tony swears up and down he never got offered
My feeling about this is that if you have such a serious problem with women in skimpy clothing that you can barely restrain yourself from wanting to whip out your pee-pee and start thrashing it like a schoolmaster, the problem is you. You are a literal slave.
It’s not a constitutional right when you have a pardon.
But they know we’re weak and cowardly and will do nothing. Nothing but crickets from the Trump admin.
Hey how’s that ballroom going? Got any more crypto for me Donnie? Ayatollah surrender yet? BRB see u in Buenos Aires
@ASavageNation Boomercons like you who condescend to youth that they're lazy & whining when they complain the economy is rigged against them (before you preach how God commands us to serve a genocidal foreign ethnostate at the expense of our own country) help push young people to socialism.
The single thing that has armed me against marketing and propaganda for the last 30 years is how incredibly racist I am.
Like, if there's a black anywhere in view of the product or message, I do not want it at all.
Get fucked breakfast cereal
The whole of my political philosophy can be summed up in a single piece of advice Emperor Pertinax gave to his two sons.
“Lift up your soldiers and spurn all other men.”
