  1. The disc version was on sale for $35, so what the hell, why not?! Even if I wait for the PS5 upgrade, might as well get in on it at that price.
  2. Because you are a pervert.
  3. There is a local bar that does really crispy breaded wings, so don’t knock it until you find a place that can rock it. I’m not adding the olive/sardine opinion because I’m lazy and don’t feel like editing the poll (also, I agree).
  4. I don't particularly like pineapple on pizza, but I don't think it ruins pizza the same way cooking a nice cut of meat well-done ruins a steak.
  5. As long as you are accepting of places who jack their prices up on the app in order to make up the cut, you are permitted to use the apps.
  6. I just remembered kitty’s bad fried egg opinion and now I’m disappointed you can’t edit polls.
  7. One thing that haunts me is the photo of the officers pointing their guns at the door. In the grand scheme of things these jamokes and dweebs didn’t do nearly as much damage as they could have, but before that became apparent that photo was the first thing I saw, and it hits home how close we came.
  8. I don’t know but it’s fun picking on Jason, so I had to think of *something*.
  9. There have been some terrible food posts on this board; now we see what reigns supreme.
  10. This is why the left fucking sucks; too busy arguing about what constitutes $2,000 to take a W that will truly, meaningfully help people.
  11. I’ve never understood how concealed carry is suppose to protect you in most situations. If someone is mugging or attacking you, they have the drop on you; I’m not about to play Doc Holiday and try to quick draw some dude who’s waiting for me to hand over my wallet.
  12. I mean, how is he wrong? Tribalism is so strong within the party that those folks are going to vote red no matter what, and there’s no chance a viable third-party would come to pass. Better the rip the bandaid off now and suffer relatively light consequences short term than allow him to remain a power vacuum within the party going into 2024.
  13. Hey man I’m not saying we don’t need to fix zoning laws, I’m just saying that fully funding the existing housing program would have an incredible impact on homelessness or poverty. This is an instance where you absolutely cannot miss the forest for the trees.
  14. I mean, the graph you just posted shows LA has the capacity. Zoning is a problem, but it’s not a problem that necessarily needs to be solved with a fully funded voucher program.
  15. Unless the existing stock is so expensive that the difference between the voucher ceiling and total rent is untenable, that shouldn’t be an issue, and I have never read anything indicating that is a widespread issue with Section 8. The biggest issue with the program is that it is severely underfunded. Voucher recipients can select single family homes. Again I won’t pretend to be an expert in LA housing, but I think you are conflating two separate (but related) issues.
  16. I wouldn’t pretend to be an expert in LA housing stock, but there is a 0% chance a fully-funded Section 8 would have little to no impact on LA homelessness.
  17. Uh, housing vouchers absolutely will ‘do shit’ because there is more than enough supply; zoning and new development impact market pricing and affordability, but housing vouchers sidestep those issues by just getting people into existing housing (of which there is enough).
  18. Nintendo needs to recognize our needs and release Joy-Cons that are the same color as the ‘Spice’ GameCube.
  19. I pray the McNair family is dumb enough to take TJ Watt for Watson straight up. Would be the fucking steal of the century, and I think they might be dumb enough to see it through!
