POLITICAL THREAD

[warrior-cat]

I've read a bit of it so far, and I think it is a seriously shitty article. I picked a random sentence ... 61 words. Writers use a run-on sentence either when they cannot fit an idea into straightforward sentences with hyperbolic descriptors that are often unnecessary and distract from the main point of the sentence or article all while creating a false sense of superiority between the extremely verbose author who experiences diarrhea of the fingers and the supposed simpleton reader who must decipher the many directional changes in the stupid-ass run on sentence. I've seen a few of those.

Whaaaaaaaat?

Shoo whee. Everyone relax. NetCat assures us Tren de Aragua will assimilate to our culture. Will just take some time.

Whew! That's good news.

The tricky thing is that the Democrat party USED all those weird catch phrases and terminology. He's trying to deconstruct it so it makes sense. I get the point, which is cognitive dissonance doesn't work in the long run. People can only be guilt tripped into voting against their best interests a limited number of times. Eventually people are going to say, "Enough of this, this is stupid." Like Lindy Li.

Well, that cleared it up. Thanks.🥹

So.....sat down yesterday to watch my first b'ball game since 'the kneel' by Calipari.
Must say....wasn't impressed. But my expectations for year one after a 100% rebuild by Pope were never that high.
Hopefully it was just a bad game.

99% of the 3rd world trash are coming here for the freebies

Now you are just exaggerating with that percentage. Everyone knows that it is only 98.9%. Please.

 

[BBUK]

I'm not whining at all. I'm pointing out the ridiculousness of the author. Sorry, if it was yours!

Even HeismanNole and I were having fun with it.

EDIT: the article was an outlandish exploration of solipsistic ad hominems.

Wait ... are you mooslim? haha.

If you EVER do that in this thread YOU clean it up!!!

Whoever did this, some of these political sweaters are pretty funny. Worth a watch. They hit you with them fast.

A new version of Mike and Ike??? I know it 'ain't" Mike and Dike...

So the illegals wont assimilate and choose not to? That’s fear mongering. The illegals will probably be deported and the legal immigrants will transition just fine in their community.

Legal=high probability of good intentions.
Illegal= high probability of secondary crimes and straight up mooching from the teet of gubmint freebies. Or, reorganizing into their criminal gangs to terrorize our citizens.
I prefer #1 please.

What Kay Granger’s staff did was pretty deplorable, and I’m certainly not condoning their actions, but they saw how the media pretty much failed to challenge Biden’s declining mental faculties and acted accordingly.

Shame on the media, her colleagues in Congress, and yes even her constituents for allowing this fraud to go on for so long.

 

[ukalum1988]

You attacked me twice. You implied I wrote the article and then asked if I was "mooslim." And now you're name calling. You should lighten up. You're the one who got angry over an article just because you couldn't understand a couple of monosyllabic words. (That means more than one syllable)

Lighten up, Francis

 

[HymanKaplan]

I'm in a surly mood after the game last night, so factor this:

x^2 +4x +10 (non-factorable won't be accepted, so it will involve an imaginary number, and show your work)

Oh, WITHOUT using the quadratic formula, LOL (or rather, just plugging it into the quadratic formula, longhand so to speak)

Double ouch, hope all is going okay at home.... A little much...

Good quote from that interview (has Don Lemon ever won an argument against anyone?)

Speaking of Elon, 100 New Yorkers asked about him. Which side seems rational?

That lemon/ lime thing needs to be slapped across his face. And seriously hard. He is WAY past being slapped across it's face seriously hard...

I'm in a surly mood after the game last night, so factor this quadratic

x^2 +4x +10 (non-factorable won't be accepted, so it will involve an imaginary number, and show your work)

Math Kaplan? Really?

A new meaning to fingering.... 😆

Wow, you are red assed.
Hang in there.

Ash, I'm sorry I made you upset. I like our "Lakeland" connection man. Honestly, I didn't realize you posted it and was just poking fun with you when you commented about me not liking it. Was trying to be humorous, looks like some got it and some didn't. I'll try harder.

What is bolded is pretty dam funny, if you meant that as a joke. Anyway, peace brother. Tis the season.

It's Cleatortoises,

all the way down... LOL

I never "factored" that in...

Wimp...

Go ahead and mess-up a good internet fight.. Geez...


A good man though...

How's this professor? My guess:
x^2 + 4x + 10 = (x^2 + 4x + 4) + 6 = (x+2)^2 + 6 = (x+2)^2 - 6i
(x+2-sqrt6i) (x+2+sqrt6i)

I see where Trump advisors are saying Vance was a generational pick because he wants the MAGA movement to go on after him.

x^2 + 4x + 10 = (x^2 + 4x + 4) + 6 = (x+2)^2 + 6 = (x+2)^2 - 6i

Bite me....


But only in the spirit of Christmas kind of way...

No way, Jose. You'd like that too much...

I feel like lot of your problems could have been avoided had you just saw this ABC afterschool special in 1980:





(I like in the description that his parents are worried cause Jack finally has friends haha)

[x + 2 + i(sqrt 6)] [x + 2 - i(sqrt 6)]

(in case you were wondering)

dangit. close. maybe i should work for nasa and we can launch a rocket 100 feet into mars again.

 

[BBUK]

[x + 2 + i(sqrt 6)] [x + 2 - i(sqrt 6)]

Bunch of derned eggheads...

It WAS the dearndest thing...

Let’s preserve this for giggles.

I know right? I was half asleep when I posted that.

 

[HymanKaplan]

It was a spurious question to begin with. either way, you're completing the square. I was watching a video, and apparently, in some other countries they teach solving these w/o plugging a,b,c into the formula.

It's truly captivating stuff. LOL

 

[Lost In FL]

LostinFL - close? It seems like you got it.

I don't think so ... for the answer you had "i(sqrt 6)" and I guessed "sqrt6i".

So, I totally blew it. Back to detention.
