Dumb
Isn’t a home made firework wrapped in aluminum and powerful enough to blow off a person’s fingers called a bomb?

Breweries affected by shutdown
So the story goes that breweries can’t release new brews until the ATF reopens after the government shutdown. It seems to me that, if the ATF is closed, there isn’t a whole lot they can do if you just release the beer anyway, and if they CAN stop you from releasing the beer, that simply proves that the government shutdown is a kabuki theater farce.

Government shutdown: Day 19
This is the nineteenth day of the government shutdown.
Still have electricity and water, no purge. no looting, no cool gangs of gangs wearing colanders as face shields. I still have to go to work. Worst apocalypse ever.
Maybe if this shutdown goes on long enough, people will finally see that most of government is a waste of money, and we can make this permanent.

Visitors from behind the Iron Curtain
My brother in law came to see us for the holidays. He brought along his girlfriend and her parents. What makes this unusual is that her parents are from Slovakia and don’t speak English. The girlfriend and her parents grew up in East Europe under the Soviet Union.

School shooting
This shooting will be used to justify a law that only allows cops to have guns on school property.
A Florida sheriff’s deputy killed three relatives, including a child, before killing himself outside of a high school, officials said.

Bad shoot, or am I an anti-gun idiot?
A 17 year old walks into a jewelry store and asks to try on rings. Once he has three of them, worth about $3,000 or so, an employee tells him that he cannot try them all on. The thief threatens her, and then runs from the store. The owner’s husband, along with another employee, chases him out of the store, and this happens:
The man with the gun fires into the fleeing vehicle, hitting the 17 year old in the head.
When I pointed out in the comments on social media that this was a bad shoot because you cannot shoot someone who is fleeing, I was called an idiot, pro criminal, anti-gun, a Democrat, accused of having an “agenda” and every other name you can think of. Even when I pointed out that this case was very similar to another Florida shooting case, it got worse.
Stuff like this is what makes gun owners look bad.

Glad I got out
I had quite a bit of money in the stock market. A few weeks ago, the stock market’s volatility had me down about $30k. I decided enough was enough, and I got out. I moved all of my funds to an online savings account that pays 2.1% interest. Since that day, the DJIA has lost more than 10% of its value, down almost 4000 points from its 52 week high of 26,951.
The Fed appears to be purposely destroying the market with these interest rate increases.

Tranny Miss Universe
The tranny that was running in the Miss Universe contest is claiming that he is a woman because he believes himself to be a woman.
Let’s say that I believe myself to be a gorilla. No matter how strongly I believe it, I am still not a gorilla.
Let’s say that I take pills to make myself grow more hair to look more like a gorilla. I am still not a gorilla.
If I hire a surgeon to perform an operation to make myself look more like a gorilla, I am still not a gorilla.
If I get a million people to say that I can be whatever I identify myself as, and declare than I am a gorilla, I am still not a gorilla.
If I were to believe myself to be a gorilla and took the steps above, people would say I am crazy.
Why doesn’t the same thing go for trannies? Just because you think that you are a woman doesn’t make you a woman, it makes you crazy.
