    Great and might Zardoz; thank you for the links.

    …took long enough

    1. Juvenile Bluster

      I dunno why anyone’s surprised. When she was elected there were articles all over the place about how she was antisemitic and pro-Islamic terrorism.

        So there is a union for students now? Does this mean they are admitting that they are a professional trade organization?

        I always thought a student union was a place to grab a couple beers, when nothing more interesting was happening on campus.

        1. Number.6

          NUS in the UK has been making a goddamn nuisance of itself for a very long time.

          I’ve heard it called “Trots for Tots” since it’s been a thoroughly commie authoritarian cult since at least the time I was at college in the 80’s, and is the petri dish that hatches all the malodorous scum that eventually inhabit the British Parliamentary Labour Party.

  2. dbleagle

    All hail the all knowing and never forgiving Zardoz! His lead link causes me to mutter and draw deeply upon my New Caledonian beer.

    1. Sour Kraut

      I used to drink that stuff. For a macrobrew, I thought Deuchars was pretty good. For micro, I loved St. Andrews.

      1. dbleagle

        I had a couple cans of Manta. I little faith in a South Pacific island beer, but the French influences serve the brewers well.

  3. Juvenile Bluster

    ZARDOZ, I APOLOGIZE FOR QUESTIONING YOUR BRUTALITY LAST WEEK. MAY THE POWER OF ZARDOZ FORGIVE ME.

    As a follower of Zardoz, I wonder if any of his followers near the retched hive of scum and villany known as Washington, DC would like to attend this “how to be antifa” seminar and report back.

    1. Caput Lupinum

      Hours much liquor are you willing to buy me? ‘Cause I ain’t doing that for free.

      1. Juvenile Bluster

        I’ll supply the ski masks and cheap booze for molotov cocktails.

    2. Vhyrus

      Dude, I think it would be awesome if these guys got trolled at their own convention.

      1. mr simple

        The interlopers had better do it en masse if they want to survive.

        1. Vhyrus

          I aint afraid of no ghosts…

          1. mr simple

            That was my high school senior quote.

    3. Playa Manhattan

      Is that one of those things where words mean the opposite of what they actually mean?

      1. np

        “fascism” gets the socialist “liberal” treatment.

        And from their article, so is “anarchism”. Apparently it must mean less Nazis and more righteous thinking socialist progressive archons.

        1. Vhyrus

          See, you misunderstand… their version of anarchy is not the same as ours. In their anarchy they can beat up and steal from anyone they deem to be ‘wrong’.

          1. Lachowsky

            When I first heard about the antifas I heard they were anarchists. I thought cool, maybe we have something in common I gonna look into this. Just a little bit of research was all it took for me to realize that these were not the anarchists I was looking for. Marxists, the whole lot of them.

      2. AlmightyJB

        “Is that one of those things where words mean the opposite of what they actually mean?”

        Of course. The left are from Bizzaro world.

    4. Vhyrus

      I would just like to say that who could have possibly predicted that anti fascists and libertarians would be the one’s fighting in 2017?

      1. The one’s what fighting?

    5. Lachowsky

      I wonder what percentage of the attendees will be FBI agents. O/U set at %30. any takers?

      1. mr simple

        Over.

      2. thrakkorzog

        I gotta figure it’s around the same as a Langely, VA KKK meeting. 70% FBI.

    6. mr simple

      Not all Antifa are Anarchists, but Anarchists are fly

      Do they get all their jargon from the 90s?

      1. Lachowsky

        And all the girlies say I’m pretty fly for an anarchist.

  4. Mike Schmidt

    “I say [to the women], I don’t want just sex, I don’t want to meet for an hour and just have sex, that’s not what I’m into.

    “You have a nice dinner, you chat, they come back to my place, they very quickly treat you as if they’re your girlfriend.

    “It’s like a normal date, yes you get intimate, and then you leave an envelope full of cash in it.”

    So he wants to meet for about 3 hours and then have sex. Totally different.

    1. Vhyrus

      More like he wants to pretend that these women like him for more than just his money, and that he actually did bag them legally.

      See, everyone? Money (and an unhealthy dose of pure psychotic delusion) CAN buy happiness!

      1. Sour Kraut

        In his defense. People pretend they like members of the opposite sex who have money. And men often don’t mind. This just formalizes the arrangement.

    2. And it’s not a “job,” because *he’s* the one paying.

      Unless he’s lying about not getting any money for pimping, er, I mean referrals.

      1. Suthenboy

        Yeah, I barely got past the headline, muttered “He’s a pimp” and clicked it off.

    3. AlmightyJB

      Mind fuck

  5. Nephilium

    Life is good, tomorrow I pick up my road bike from getting its tune-up, and the weather may actually be good enough to get a ride in. Then I drop off the trail bike for its yearly tune-up. And in three weeks, I’ll be sitting in Vegas, drinking Tiki drinks and enjoying rockabilly music.

    1. AlmightyJB

      Nice. We have a 4 day weekend coming up and we’ve yet to figure out where were going. Guess that will be on today’s agenda.

  6. mr simple

    Great Zardoz, I am thankful for the links,

    ….. but did you have to get me put on a 16th list by linking to infowars? Of course I had no choice but to click and partake in the links provided.

    Very interesting, if not unpredictable, stuff in that link, nonetheless, as well as the Paul and Stone interviews linked on that page.

    1. Lachowsky

      My favorite Alex Jones quote?

      in reference to pot he said,
      “I don’t like it. it makes me paranoid”

    OT: How bad did Kansas shit the bed tonight?

    1. one true athena

      DUCKS SMASH

    2. Juvenile Bluster

      There are three things in life that are certain: Death, taxes and Bill Self shitting the bed in the Elite Eight.

      1. mr simple

        My favorite tactic in the tournament is to see how far I think Kansas should make it and then put them going out in the preceding round. This year I though BIFM could take them to the final, a la Kemba Walker, but apparently my formula holds. There was no excuse for them not being a final four team.

        1. Watch my brackets flame out like the Hindenburg, thanks Jayhawks!

          1. __Warren__

            You know who else flamed out like the HIndenburg?

          2. Graf von Zeppelin?

          3. Chipwooder

            Richard Pryor?

          4. Vhyrus

            Richard Simmons?

          5. Number.6

            The Kurgan?

          6. Vhyrus

            I thought the Hindenburg did quite the opposite of flaming out….

    3. Shpip

      C’mon, they’ve been killing it on their Leftoverture 40th Anniversary Tour.

      I still get a thrill up my leg when I hear the opening bars of “Point of Know Return.”

      1. *narrows gaze, past the point of know return*

    4. Rufus the Monocled

      That was AWFUL.

      Wtf?

    5. Not an Economist

      Just out of curiosity, when is the latest you can enter the JSubD Bracket Challenge? I’m something of a procrastinator (At least people tell me — I haven’t gotten around to finding out what that means), and I’m not quite done filling out my bracket. I should be done in a week or two.

  8. Lachowsky

    In reference to the info wars link.

    Does anyone actually think that Obama’s administration didn’t collect data from trump. There can be debate about whether the data gathering was ordered or politically motivated, but the fact that the NSA gobbles up just about everything kinda makes it obvious that there is a large amount of credulity to the claim.

    1. thrakkorzog

      There have also been quite a few stories of intelligence analyst using collected data to spy on their Significant Others or their ex’s, so I’m not exactly shocked if they also hoovered up Trump campaign details. Even if Obama didn’t directly order the surveillance, he definitely set up the conditions. Especially with easing the rules about information sharing just days before leaving office it certainly looks like he wanted to make it easier for that information to be leaked.

      Obama might has well have given a press conference declaring,, “Who will rid me of this troublesome Trump?”

    2. Number.6

      I don’t think anyone who understands the way surveillance works, doesn’t think he had data collected.

      Bearing in mind his business activities, the chances of Trump’s office not communicating with “foreign individuals of interest” is nil, so his call metadata (at the very least) would be captured and for two pins and a kiss on the scrotum from Lena Dunham, someone somewhere will have logged it all, tagged it with meat-world names and filed it in Utah.

      Now, there’s MEANT to be a firewall between that data, and someone picking it apart on behalf of the alphabet agencies, and any persons who compromise that firewall will be doing it in the full knowledge that they should not be doing it.

      I can only think that someone, somewhere is very worried at the moment, because HRC didn’t win, and is at severe risk of a very long stay in a very inhospitable place somewhere. The evidence is out there regarding who that person is, and if Trump really wants to pursue this, he will be able to gain that evidence.

      1. AlmightyJB

        My guess would be that yes data was collected, but that Obama didn’t order it and probably knew nothing about it. Yes, I know it’s his administration so he’s ultimately responsible. I just don’t know why Obama’s would take the risk on his way out the door. I certainly wouldn’t put this past the Clinton’s or the DNC.

        1. They collected the data without Obama ordering it, since they collect data on everybody. But once Obama realized they had the data, dollars to doughnuts he had people in the administration get it.

      2. Suthenboy

        “… if Trump really wants to pursue this, he will be able to gain that evidence.”

        So the genius’ on the left decided to make a big deal about this and hammer the “Trump is paranoid and unfit, wears a tinfoil hat” instead of shutting up about it and letting it die. Good.

        1. Number.6

          The left in this country have been underpants gnomes for years, it’s all

          1. Decide to do something with no planning
          2. ???
          3. Success!

    3. Credibility, not credulity.

    4. Rufus the Monocled

      “Does anyone actually think that Obama’s administration didn’t collect data from trump.”

      Nope.

    Out of nowhere my wife brought up Diane Lane which got me thinking about Streets of Fire. As a product it did not do well, but I’ve seen it like 10 times although not at all in the last 20 years.

    Like Hawk the Slayer, which i also watched numerous times, it’s a movie that has left me with a lot of mental images of sequences that jumble about in my memory out of order but still vivid.

    I can remember whole scenes but can I put them in order? Not really. With Hawk that’s not so much a problem now since I just watched it again recently, but it still happens with Streets.

    There are not many other movies that do that to me. The Wild Bunch made a similar powerful impression but I could put the movie in the right sequence pretty easily. The same with Micheal Caine’s, first and far superior, version of Get Carter.

    I don’t know what it is about that movie as opposed to others.

    Anyone else have a similar thing?

    1. mr simple

      Probably, but I can’t remember.

    2. Lachowsky

      Movies I watched 20 years ago. Let me think.

      The land before time.
      Toy Story.
      Alladin.

      Damn you’re an old fucker.

    3. thrakkorzog

      I’d say Little Big Man is kind of a semi-obscure movies these days that has some scenes that stick with me. (Although the Vietnam parallels are a bit over the top. Way to turn subtext into supertext.)

      The scene where the titular character marries three widows and has a honeymoon with three women, isn’t so much sexy as it is reality ensues.

      It’s #2 on my list of best ending scenes. (#1 is Some Like it Hot.)

      Also, Faye Dunaway in her prime. Gawd Damn, you gotta be like a 12 on the Kinsey scale to not appreciate that.

      1. Other great ending scenes are the Carole Lombard version of To Be or Not to Be, and the pre-code Red-Headed Woman.

    4. Number.6

      Don’t laugh – Krull.

      I guess the problem is that Lysette Anthony kinda scrambled mah brain.

      1. thrakkorzog

        I hate to admit but watching The Beastmaster kind of scrambled my childhood brains. I had nightmares about those guys that just popped out of the sand, wrapped people in batwings and turned them to goo.

        Those were my childhood nightmares. Looking back Beastmaster is laughably bad and low budget film. But I crawled out of bed to watch the film my parents didn’t want me see, and they were right. I probably shouldn’t have watched that film that gave me nightmares.

        But It still hangs around in my head as a standard nightmare, like showing up for a test I didn’t study for in my underwear. But stupid shit still shows up in my dreams.

        1. AlmightyJB

          When I was like 6 or 7 they showed Hunchback of Notre Dame in our classroom. I had nightmares for a long time about that creepy dude.

          1. Trials and Trippelations

            Gremlins scared me

          2. AlmightyJB

            I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been somewhere and Gremlins have been on the TV but other than a few minutes here or there, I’ve never actually watched it. I actually drove my parents old AMC Gremlin back in the day. Talk about scary. Twas a hideous green.

          3. Trials and Trippelations

            One the members at the church my wife interned at still had the mustang convertible he bought in high school (one of the 1960s model years), but he kept the original ugly 1960s lime avacado green. Yuck. Really reduced the awe factor

          4. AlmightyJB

            I still remember being a little kid at the drive in watching Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and hiding my eyes behind the bench seat everytime the child catcher came on.

          5. AlmightyJB

            Maybe explains why I hate authority so much:) lol

        2. Number.6

          True story.

          My mother took me to see “Sound of Music” when it first came out. I can’t remember why it was just my mother and myself and not the rest of the family. I must have been 4 or 5, and had never been to a movie before.

          So we sit down, in great anticipation, listening to the sound system (they didn’t punish moviegoers with long, dreadful previews and adverts back then) and eventually the curtain raised and the movie starts.

          I think the movie had run for under 20 minutes when I whispered in a very loud kid voice:

          “MOM! When are they gonna let us out?”

          Never understood why I got a clip around the ear. It was a perfectly civil question.

    5. AlmightyJB

      “I can remember whole scenes but can I put them in order?”

      Yeah, that was pretty much describes how I remember my life. Especially the late 70’s and most of the 80’s. The whole scenes part is even in question.

    6. RBS

      Arachnophobia terrified me. I wad scared of spiders for about 2 decades after.

  10. Playa Manhattan

    I watched Jason Bourne with the wife tonight.

    God damn what a stupid fucking movie.

    1. Old Mans and Trail 2

      Which one? Not that it matters but all three were meh. The fight scenes had a strobe light effect on me. What is up with the .5 second clips one after the other?

      1. Playa Manhattan

        The one that just came out. Jason Bourne.

        My 9 year old could have written a better screenplay.

        1. Why not? Correct the spelling, put your name on it, and see if it goes anywhere.

    2. Sour Kraut

      Shit all over the original trilogy, did they?

      The first ones were good. Some say Bourne Identity had the best car chase since French Connection.

    3. AlmightyJB

      Was that one of Ludlum’s books?

  11. thrakkorzog

    Ok, So some late night links setting Politics aside Miley Cyrus is a pretty good C&W singer, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOwblaKmyVw

    1. Sour Kraut

      Not surprised she’s talented. Why she felt driven to become a punchline I’ll never understand. Surely she was already making plenty of money.

      She looks pretty respectable without all the silly finger tattoos.

      1. thrakkorzog

        Miley Cyrus is rebelling against child stardom foisted upon her by her dad, Her Achey Breaky dad, but, she has pair of brass vocal cords on her.

    2. thrakkorzog

      Miley Cyrus has a voice custom made for Country music, but she’s stuck singing – Pop crap, Watch her cover of 50 ways to leave your lover https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pB_V7cwbyY8&index=8&list=RDwOwblaKmyVw ,She’s wasted on those stupid teens,

      1. I bet she’s crying all the way to the bank.

      2. AlmightyJB

        That was pretty good

    3. AlmightyJB

      I like Miley. It’s sad that her generation took such a brutal brainwashing. Hopefully, most will be able to eventually recover and acquire some sense of rational perspective. It’s the ones doing the brainwashing I dispise the most including her older celebrity counterparts.

    4. Not an Economist

      I’ve always thought Miley had a good voice (even in her pop songs) but when she broke from her Disney image she decided to follow Lady Gaga by being shocking, not realizing it could make her a joke rather quickly. It is hard to constantly shock people. Even Lady Gaga has changed her style because the old one stopped working.

  12. “You feel guilty about it, I don’t really want my marriage to get ruined, but when you get older you get that, ‘you only live once’ attitude.”

    Well, since he has a spare $65,000 of discretionary funds lying around, and he TOTALLY DOESN’T EARN ANY MONEY FROM PIMPING, so he can give that up without any financial sacrifice, it sounds like he’s rich enough to set up a charitable foundation and provide clean water or vaccinations to people who need same.

    Now *there’s* a way to get a rush out of life.

    1. “Waah, I’m a rich guy with a wife and kids but I’m dissatisfied because my wife doesn’t bone me enough.” There’s lots of people in the world who would *love* to have your “problems.”

      If excitement is what you’re looking for, go hunt drop bears in the Outback.

      1. Lachowsky

        What is a drop bear?

        1. Suthenboy

          A mythical Antipodean bear that lives in the forest canopy. It drops down on your head to attack you when you walk under it.

          https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drop_bear

          It is the Australian version of a jackelope.

          1. Lachowsky

            Gotcha. Must be a northern critter. We don’t have none down here.

  13. Sour Kraut

    MY EYES! I just saw one of these on the road.

    A Range Rover Cabriolet — some things you just can’t unsee.

    1. AlmightyJB

      Pretty ugly

    2. I like it, what do find unappealing, too boxy?

      1. Sour Kraut

        That picture is actually kind of flattering. It just looks like a SUV with a missing roof on the road. That was squashed somehow.

      2. AlmightyJB

        Exactly, just a rectangle with wheels.

    3. Lachowsky

      True story. A friend of mine a few weeks ago was visiting his family in pine bluff, AR. He took a picture of a 80’s model station wagon with a 4 wheeler strapped to the roof. He sent me the image, and I thought it was pretty funny.

      At work a few days later, I see the same same station wagon pop up on my FB as a meme with the title, Only in Arkansas.
