  1. I have a hard time putting myself in the mindset of these hypothetical overweight people who are fat but just don't know it. Perhaps they have been obese since childhood and so have no frame of reference? Personally, I got about 20 pounds over what I would consider my normal weight at one point, and I felt it every time I would bend over or sit up. And this was at a point where I was just barely over the "overweight" line on BMI charts.
  2. Wisconsin is one of the states Trump won with a razor thin margin to put him over the top. Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan by just over 75,000 votes combined. Just 22,000 votes in Wisconsin, or .7 percentage points.
  3. Becky's husband died, and Darlene divorced David. I don't think they went into enough detail in the new season to know for sure what name they go by, but it wouldn't be a big stretch to say they're both Conners. The Conners aren't hicks.....they're white trash. Get it right I find myself conflicted in that I find some of the remorse Roseanne has shown to be more sincere than you're typical "I am sorry if anyone was offended" boilerplate stuff. But then she still goes off on crazy Twitter rants, so how sorry can you really be if you continue the behavior(even if not quite as blatantly racist). You know what's easier than going on a redemption tour, and apologizing for the stuff you did? Shutting down the damn Twitter account the moment your series got rebooted in the first place. I remain convinced the cancellation was as much, if not more, about Roseanne's comments and actions before the show came back. She should have appreciated that it was a minor miracle that the show ever got green lit in the first place since she had a dozen or more Tweets in her back catalog that were enough to get a show cancelled. I am glad the cast and crew get another chance, but it's hard to see Roseanne without Roseanne.
  4. So what you're telling us is that pulling power moves on message boards gives you an erection?
  5. The most worrying thing about all this punting is that I've heard arguments for and against why it hints at Kennedy retiring. And I find the "yes, he's retiring" argument to be more convincing. Kennedy's recent nod towards overturning Chevron deference could be seen as indicating he is looking at being on the court to do so. But I also see it as indicating Gorsuch has been in his ear and, despite all Trump's flaws, Kennedy would still trust Trump to nominate his replacement then a Democrat. After all, Trump didn't do such a bad job with his buddy Gorsuch, amirite?
  6. Right. The article seems to be of the "damn millenials!" variety, but I would chalk this up to the improving job market. We went from about 7 or 8 years of employers generally being able to treat employees like trash because unemployment was high and they were disposable. The reason there is an uptick in employees ghosting is because more people have the ability to take or leave a certain job.
  7. "When you dance with the devil, the devil doesn't change. The devil changes you."
  8. The hardest part of not having this board was probably not having somewhere to funnel my all consuming rage and disdain for this orange neon nazi we call a president.
  9. I was worried the boards might be gone for good. Sucks hard that we lost the entire archive. There are some old Ohioguy threads that I would probably choose to keep over old family albums Good to be back....I was hoping that if I was steadfast in my determination to refuse to use things like Facebook, Twitter, and Discord that Wade would eventually get around to fixing my account without me asking
