The representative was calling him out for a threat the bald dude made in the press. Joe Biden is the guy who made threats of violence popular with his threats of taking president Trump "out back."
Eh, nevermind...

It's awful because I don't know the guy's real circumstances (maybe had a kid with cancer or bet a lot of money on the Jets going to the super bowl this year, but I'm laughing very loud.

That repoguy was smooth. Good thing it wasn't a four-wheel drive. Hahaha.

That's what all these tracking devices in these cars have led to, quick and easy repossessions.
Eh, nevermind...

As a former repo guy, well done sir! I hope there were no cancer kids..

You can't do that with a boat though..  :P :-\

This may be somewhat abnormal, but I have been dress rehearsing my Christmas setup. I have more than I did a year ago so I'm planning ahead for the glorious day. Dentist free, or not.   Even made a video of it so I can just GITTERDONE!!

I'm rehearsing my Christmas getaway.  How can I creatively avoid a subpar par dinner with too many people invited I either don't know or wouldn't volunteer to socialize with at any other time?  Thanksgiving first though.  I'd really rather just have the day.

So, do I dare ask how or why there are people that you don't know coming to your house on Christmas day? I've had that happen in my last life once or twice, although that was a Christmas party that we hosted when my wife worked for westjet. Bunch of those airplane types all over the house. Some of them didn't even know who I was. We stopped being large party hosts.

Not my place.  My daughter and my Ex trade off hosting Christmas and Thanksgiving, so they invite who they want.  It's not usually who I want.

And that's fine, their home, their dinner, their party.  Those days, Easter, Super Bowl Sunday, maybe a few others, no one is out on the trails, no one is out anywhere, it's glorious.

With all of my kids relatively young and either still involved in education or mentoring those still being educated, I have an open invitation. This is especially true for people who have no family around.

One of my kids has a classmate who is so at odds with her family that she doesn't even know what her medical insurance is to go to the emergency room. People like that, they come to eat, hang out with my cats and they're invited to stay the whole weekend. I offer my chauffeur services as well. Postgrad education is tough enough as it is, a little brightness over a couple of holidays is the least I can offer

Eh, nevermind...

Kids are one thing, these are bratty 50 - 60 year olds - in-laws, the exes' friends...  The backdrop will be yappy dogs and football games on TV.

You know, it's better than a day at work, but there's a whole world of empty parkland out there...

At that age, fuck them.

That is a bona fide, dyed in the wool, goat sucker. Best view at the 45 to 48 second mark. Best part is those two lads got after it with ass whomping sticks.
