Amongst family and friends I’m still considered the black sheep conservative. Yet here on Jazzfanz I don’t think there’s a single self-applied conservative I agree with on much of anything. Then there’s the Trump supporters, all of whom read as radically reactionary, rather than calm, considered...

It may not be wrong doing in the sense that it's illegal but political corruption takes many forms. Biden’s son sold himself for access, even if it was only the perception of access, something the Clinton’s turned into an art form over that last twenty years and created generational wealth in...

Not true. The guest is misinformed or lying. The term “capitalist” was used many times by many authors (see David Ricardo for just one example) for many years before Marx. My guess is that Johnson’s guest is lying because a good faith argument on the various forms of capitalism is too hard and...

The important thing is we now all have a place to air our petty grievances safe in the knowledge that the despicable poster will never read them since he has the OP on ignore. Stand up behavior all around. . .

I know and agree. Just a little joke. A lot of us around here are a little unbalanced but not necessarily totally nuts.

Let’s relax and calm down. Nobody here is sick or mentally ill (that we know of for a certainty) and it would be wrong to imply anything of the sort.

People accuse posters of being an alt often enough, not a big deal in and of itself. However, you left out the part where you tracked him down and called him at his work, thereby taking a silly online disagreement into seriously unbalanced territory.

Babe gets way too much flak on this site. I appreciate his posts and his point of view even though I rarely agree and even when they go off the rails. His stream of consciousness style and jaded sense of humor is unique and would be missed. Knowing down deep you’re fighting a lost cause can get...

Dude, you’re not exactly the best person on this site to be giving advice on crazy and the need to seek professional help.

It hasn’t been cancelled. It has sold out nationwide. Popeyes working with its suppliers to bring it back as soon as possible.

This is not entirely true. If the target short term interest rate gets lower bound the Fed can still try quantitative easing (e.g. large-scale buying of treasury bonds and/or mortgage backed securities) as it did with good success when interest rates reached near zero during the recession that...

The best advice is to not worry or try too hard to time the market and, instead, invest for the long-term. Warren Buffett recommends most low information investors just put whatever they can save each year into a quality low-fee S&P Fund and the miracle of compounding will earn your way to a...

That’s good advice, babe. I’ve been investing in stocks since I was a paperboy in junior high school and my favorite television show was Wall Street Week. As far as your political prognostications go, you have to admit you’re not exactly objective. 2020 will likely be another close election. My...

The original is wild on its own. Funny and well done photoshop though.

Living comfortably without debt is a solid scenario for accumulating a sizable nest egg for retirement. It’s certainly the risk adverse and fiscally conservative approach. Hope that’s what you’re working toward and why you don’t have any financial worries.

I was confused right up until Siro came back to slice and dice Uncle Frank into little pieces.

We rarely use air conditioning in SLC, mostly just on weekends here and there. Not home much on weekdays during the heat of the day. Open windows at night and in the morning helps the house stay well ventilated and cool until late afternoon, then ceiling fans into the evening keeps things...

From the history I’ve read the NRA was all for gun control back in the 60s, mainly because of the Black Panthers who openly carried in order to “police the police”. The NRA backed the bill that ended open carry in California in 1967. It wasn’t until the 70s, after the Panthers were largely...

Who was Alfalfa? Alt13 or Siro or someone else? I thought he was Alt13 but I think another poster mentioned Siro. Doesn’t really matter, all are missed.

Last week the survey was interesting to some because Trump was down by three in Utah! As of a few days ago he’s up by four! It’s too early to matter either way so everyone can relax. Furthermore, the survey is about job approval, not how people will vote. In the actual election, the vast...
