This right here is regurgitated nonsense about a world where there is a fictional binary system of economics. Either you are a communist or libertarian. These are schools of thought that have been used to great effect because they appeal to people's emotions by assigning morality to economic theory. They are opposite sides of the same bad idea coin. While you are jerking off to "The Wealth of Nations" tonight, and completly misunderstanding it, why don't you read the section where he talks about the interest of corporations being at odds with public interest and free markets leading to monopolies that are bad for the public and markets themselves. Blended systems have always yielded the best results, but voting for a measured approach would require some critical thinking instead of an emotional, visceral reaction from the idiot general public.

I don't think those graphs are showing what you think they show. I don't have time to go into it, but you're not measuring what you think you are.

DFG already did the floaters and it was actually hilarious.

FLight of the Conchords is probably the best comedy band I've heard. They're really talented song writers (Bret has an Oscar) and make hilarious songs.

Also if anyone likes the NZ humor then you have to check out What We Do in the Shadows. That movie is one of the best hidden gems in comedy.

But you know...the critics just like their politics

During their Theater of Pain tour Motley Cure had backstage passes that looked like this but printed up special ones that had two frowning masks instead of one frowning and one smiling.

If a chick fucked a roadie to get backstage they gave her one of those so that the guys in the band would know.

> It's literally a ponzi scheme now:

It literally isn't a Ponzi scheme.

> First and foremost, Social Security's Trust Fund is invested in real-life assets: special-issue U.S. Treasury bonds.

> Second, Social Security's accounting is about as honest as any accounting based on projections can be.

> Third, Social Security is a mandatory program for nearly all U.S.-based wage-earners. The money coming in to pay benefits will keep coming in unless there's a tremendous shift in the law.

> Fourth and finally, Social Security has a multidecade history of being patched up by Congress.

It's basically nothing at all like a Ponzi scheme. People who say that lose all credibility, either because they know it isn't like a Ponzi scheme and they're trying to sell you on that, anyway (usually for ideological reasons), or because they know so little about how the program works that they don't realize how much it isn't like a Ponzi scheme.

Found it!

Apologies if your joking, but for those that aren't aware.http://pluto.tv/

Pluto is far from perfect, but in an effort to be a step away from the usual cable/satellite companies it's at least a first step.

I loved the Tiny Tim talk today with Howie and Adam. I've always been fascinated by Tiny Tim and he does live on because one of his songs was in the first episode of spongebob squarepants so a whole generation of kids were exposed to him unbeknownst. Im surprised we still haven't gotten a Tiny Tim biopic because the guy was endlessly entertaining and fascinating. Here's a link to a Penn Jillette podcast where he kinda gives a good synopsis of who Tiny Tim was and why he captivated so many people. Starts at 17:55

https://player.fm/series/penns-sunday-school/the-tiny-tim-elevator-pitch

Via the 5/16/11 podcast. Adam acknowledges it by reading the same page live.

> http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Mangria > > An alcoholic drink based off sangria or wine, originally coined by comedian/podcast&radio personality Adam Carolla when he returned to the kitchen to top off his glass of red wine. When he realized he was all out, he ingeniously decided to fortify what was left in his glass with vodka. Realizing no significant change in the taste of the red wine, albeit with a stronger kick, MANgria was born.

Thought the same thing. I'm a big Adam apologist, and actually kinda like Vinnie (I know...), but the cheese thing was fucking stupid. Get a nice crisp, something like this, but the non-flavored variety, apply some nice Humboldt Fog, and tell me its not fucking delicious.

You're a persistent one.

He paints a picture of his early days that is not consistent with what ANY of his coworkers think. That is rewriting history.

Thanks for making my point.

Your link goes to "The Long Walk" written by Richard Bachman. Look how small the Pseudonym is compared to Stephen King. Similar to Mark Twain and Samuel Clemens.

Back in the day, I read the Long Walk from this book.

http://www.amazon.com/Richard-Bachman-Books-Novels-Regulators/dp/B00N4H19U6/ref=sr_1_46/192-9610852-0362412?ie=UTF8&qid=1427388151&sr=8-46&keywords=Richard+bachman

Back in the day , Stephen King wrote under a pseudonym. He did this for a reason. Now, he wants people to read the story based on his Stephen King name, so his name is bigger. Back when he wanted Richard Bachman to get the credit, then that name was huge.

My point is that Adam markets his name - not the product. The product almost seems incidental.

On Adam's other book in which he add's a note about the "co-author" on the front of his book. The color and font dictate that he does not want you to notice Mike Lynch. Because in the end - Adam convinces himself that "writing" can be viewed as someone dictating a 'story' to a ghost writer.

Here is Adam's ghost writer:

But thank you for making my point.

I have not addressed it as "Ego" so much as it is Marketing.

What do you think? P.S.: You got me into looking for the "The Long Walk" - I think I read that in H.S. . It predates "The Hunger Games" and I think the Long Walk followed another work called "The Lottery". I need to find at the library.

Take careful

I have no connection to this site, I just signed up yesterday, but Green Chef is essentially the same concept, but all organic (I'm not an organic blowhard, it's just their niche) and Groupon is having a killer deal. It's $35 for 3 2-serving meals. This would be $60 on Blue Apron.

Podkicker for android suits my needs. I've used it for 2 years for all of my podcasts. Never found a better app.

Also Sirius offers free trials with only an email address as verification. I've gotten free Sirius for years by just creating 12 email addresses a year and verifying my account that way.

Educate yourself dipshit. Here is the complete arrest of Alton Sterling. This shows his history. Was he going for a gun when he was killed, don't know, the video doesn't show that CLEARLY. But what is clear is he was in and out of jail his adult life and a criminal, none of which means his death was justified. https://www.scribd.com/document/317643395/AS-Court-Documents Here is a picture of him with his children. Residents of BR have confirmed that this is indeed him and his kids. What does this picture say, those guns aren't toys.http://www.snopes.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/parental-guidance-alton-sterling.jpg

There's a few YouTube clips around. I think the 24.6 MB zip file here works. Basically the guy that voices Jack from the commercials comes on as a guest (There was a lot of unique and/or bad guests at the time) and stays in character the whole time.

my search for staple gun: https://www.bing.com/search?q=staple+gun&go=Submit&qs=n&form=CHRDEF&pc=U316&pq=staple+gun&sc=8-10&sp=-1&sk=&cvid=6D3D92A76E344E46854813EAE6F5547C

His employees were correct. He told them to build with a staple gun not the nail gun. He wanted them to make a decision - but then they get yelled at if they divert from his instructions.

Boss says build it with a staple gun - the world - would use a staple gun.

Adam can't admit that he told them the wrong tool to use. I am on lackey's side with this one.

You're just making terrible strawman arguments now, so I'm not even going to bother replying to your points.

>all companies must be all doing poorly according to your logic

If you got that from what I said, you need to work on your reading skills.

I said there is a DIFFERENCE between financials reported and taxable income. My primary argument goes back to the fact that what's reported to investors is not what the company is paying tax on. That is a simple fact.

Here is a semi-dumbed down explanation: https://www.fool.com/knowledge-center/whats-the-difference-between-taxable-income-and-pr.aspx

According to Linkedin he still is.

I'm sure everyone's seen the Johns-Hopkins live infographic by now. It shows 32 deaths in Los Angeles and climbing. Also shows that LA leads California in cases, and is knocking on the door of Top 10 cities nationally for number of cases.

Curious if this "moves the needle" for Ace or if those deaths don't count because their ages were concealed, or perhaps the dead simply weren't gritty enough.

If anybody's still looking for a way to get the latest show despite the hopefully-in-error paywall, see here and here (search the page for "buckman").

Interesting - the movie I referenced was 25% with critics and 75% with audience. I agree that I liked the toned down version from a few years ago.

This seems like a good time to remind you of this.

Don't pay this guy. Don't feel bad for him. He's a manipulator exploiting people for sympathy.

Not saying he is funny per say (I don't find him that funny) but check out his documentary on amazon prime. Pauly seems like a real crowd pleaser and overall nice guy.

Also I paid to see Steve do "Comedy" so .... ya maybe I shouldn't comment on who is good haha!

I agree with your statement and believe you are correct.

I did not mean that he was/is an imbecile or 'dumb'. My point is that he could read at the 6th grade level as to his admission that his last book read and H.S. book reports were written on a children's grade school book. Excellent book by the way.

Had he said he read: '1984' or 'All Quiet on the Western Front' or 'Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl'; I would believe that he was pulling the wool over our eye's.

Thank you for clarifying my omission.

I guess Dennis Prager read this book-

The "cancelled event" is a publicity stunt. Im sure this whole thing will be a part of Pragers doc. He cant go around screaming "Im a fag!!" for attention so he has to get it somehow.

iTunes presale price of 4.99, after it goes up to 6.99. 8.99 on amazon and 9.49 on Google Play (publishing limitations) if and when there is a Volume #2 it should be double or 3x the length and should be the same price on all 3 platforms if all goes correctly.

If you're trying to spin this into an Adam only reflection of his ego then you're way off the mark. The bigger and more famous the author is, the larger their name is on the book so it attracts attention. Take a look at Stephen King's latest books. His name practically covers the entire cover.

Calvin Klein Men's 3-Pack Cotton Stretch Boxer Brief, Your welcome.

Edit: I used to wear the cheap Haynes from walmart. I saw a post on /r/frugalmalefashion about what not to skimp on and the top post was underwear. So I went with one of their suggestions that I posted above. It was like having my nether regions supported by fluffy clouds. I bought more as well as their undershirts and threw away all my cheap ones. There was no going back.
