I went shopping at the butcher shop a couple miles down the road from
me. I was amused at the sign in front..... We Have Flower and Yeast

Church??? Is that another one of the characteristics I am supposed to
share with all the other legally licensed and law abiding gun owners
here. You are even stupider that I thought. It's funny to see you
trying to belittle my sexuality, considering that between your looks and
you personality you couldn't get fucked on a Saturday night in a bar
full of drunken seamen.

It's easier for Moron to make a personal attack than to deal with the
facts. I provided a good example of a high profile case of three women
trying to get in on the Me Too movement and when their case got to court
the guy was acquitted because they were found to be lying about just
about everything regarding the case.
 
 
Maybe we should have raised the issue of Anthony Bourdain's partner Asia
Argento who was one of the founder's of Me Too and was busy gaining fame
for having been assaulted by Harvey Winestein, and it turned out she was
also in the process of settling an assault case laid against her by an
underage actor.

And your response causes you to lose face and shows
just how biased you are. So you believe
women no matter what they claim? It must be true?
Every single claim?
 
I have no doubt that many claims are true but not so
many that we have seen in the past few years.
I suspect that many are also just vindictive women
finally going after revenge for being jilted.
 
Ever heard of "copy cat" crimes?
 
Maybe it's time for an "US TOO" rampage.
Men claiming how some women scorned have a life-long
issue and hatred after giving up their goodies
in hopes of a life-long relationship. Fair is fair right?

what I meant by that comment was that Pence righteously will not be
alone with any female because of religious beliefs. However,
distancing does not keep him from 'sinning in his mind' or in the
shower.

Maybe you just shouldn't be in their living space if their presence
scares you. I have been on canoe trips where we paddled several days to
the more remote areas. Bears are only interested in your food. Put it in
a bag and hang it from a tree.

It sure says a lot about you inability to read of you think I said he
should be free. Maybe if I do a short summary it won't exceed your
attention span. A woman complained. Three more jumped in the band wagon
and made similar accusations. He admitted the rough sex and said it
was consensual.... evidenced by subsequent dates with similar low level
violence and emails saying how much they had enjoyed it. All three were
caught in a web of lies and lost their credibility.
 
I never liked the guy. I was glad to see him get fired. I was especially
glad because his radio persona was Mr. PC all inclusive CBC diversity,
and he was caught in the hypocrisy.

He wasn't wrong! She was, and she had an agenda! Look up Eddie
Greenspan's commentary on the case in the G&M. That's the Toronto Globe
and Mail, not a RW PostMedia paper!

The scary thing that I see is that someone hates Trump so much
that they actually spent the time and energy to compose such a
long list. NPLS. (No Personal Life Syndrome).

Yeah...for beloved Biden, he only innocently touched women
on their shoulders. Do I see a double standard here?

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
 
Q: I suppose with the feminist thing, did you also
support women's right to fight in combat? Should they
also be drafted if a draft ever happens again?
Not YOUR daughter though.

That's bullshit and demonstrates the level of ignorance about the
Canadian gun control regulations that is typical of the people who are
opposed to firearms. They can be used for hunting and they can be used
for target shooting. There was always a limit on magazine capacity.
Automatic weapons were already prohibited.

Well look at that... another pseudo psychologist. Sometimes men lose
their hair before they can afford a Maserati. Maybe you could explain
how shooting has become so popular with women.

The legislation should also have included an absolute ban on hand guns.
And before you spit out your coffee, don't bother spouting that NRA crap
that "it won't stop criminals" etc.
That guy in Nova Scotia only became a criminal when he used the guns.

Fred had to point the car in the desired direction before leaving. To get back home required turning the car 180 degrees or driving in reverse. The newer models are a lot more practical.
 
Please don't go all technical about the cartoon Flintstones car,
for God's sake. :o

Next time I make fries I'll have to post a pic.
I salt them then literally frost them with pepper.
I rarely use ketchup. The salt and mass quantities of
pepper is the taste I like.
 
One thing I've found and is interesting. You can definitely
add too much black pepper to some dishes and it turns
annoying too hot. Potatoes however are immune to a black
pepper overdose.

It made my taste buds cringe to see him sprinkling more pepper on a
forkful of egg that was already black with the stuff.

> I also found the saying "what will the neighbors think" archaic and weird in general
 
When I was still living at home, that's exactly what my father
said to me when he was complaining about my long hair.
And my hair then wasn't long at all. Just not a short office
haircut like he got every Saturday.
 
> and my mother never uttered certain other cliches either,
> such as "just wait till YOU have children."
 
Ha Ha...I do remember saying just that to my teenage daughter
once. It's true though. Teens think they know everything and
they often fight for more and more freedom.
 
I explained to her that a parent is not your best friend.
A good parent has to be the RAT that says, "NO" sometimes.
Then I added, "just wait till YOU have children."
 
> (Any parent who talks like that is foolish, since many teens
> might well say "what makes you think I'll ever WANT any?")
 
I never got that response.
 
Lenona, you do have an interest in teen sex or sex before
marriage and also teens fighting for their "rights."
 
As I stated, a good parent is NOT a teen's best friend.
They will go for anything they can and a good parent will
say no - often to their dismay.
 
You sound to me like someone that never had kids of your
own. Sounds like you base your beliefs on yourself growing
up as a kid. Am I wrong?

I had a telephone video tour of my son's new house yesterday and he
showed me the washer and dryer in the master bedroom. He had no idea why
it was there. Then when he got to the basement there was another set
down there. He also has spare bathrooms. They have three bedrooms, one
of which is his partner's office, and four bathrooms. That is overkill.
