    Apparently it's a blend of seven batches of varying age, which makes it scarce and therefore expensive. Boon is great. My go-to everyday geuze is Lindeman's oude geuze.

    My geuze was $66 USD (750 mL), will probably be a once or twice a year thing.

    Saved one of my bucket list guezes for NYE. Been wanting to try this for a while, finally found it locally.

    Wow, that Evidence certainly was Scary. I love how these Morons capitalize words for Emphasis.

    Few days back the wife was exposed to someone who tested positive yesterday. She's getting tested today and I will get tested Monday. Both fully jabbed and boosted (her with m-RNA and me with 2 JnJ). Hopefully we come out negative so I can see my family next week for the holidays. Omicron is not messing around. Tons of people at my workplace are testing positive.

    Because of my path in school / university, I've been pretty lucky to have never had a job that paid hourly (except one for a few summers and it was fine), and my salaried jobs have been pretty sweet thus far. Guess that makes me the bourgeois and ur all beneath me.

    Maybe we're overdue for a "dummy" revolution like this. I mean, if you think about it, if you take a sample size as large as the population of a large country and assume any personality or intelligence trait follows a Gaussian distribution across the population (which is a pretty good assumption), there's going to be 50% of the people below average on that trait. We've had a good, long run of the competent people being in charge (perhaps they were selfish or exhibited other negative traits, but they were at least competent in building and running a country). I think in the past, the dummies never rose to power because they lacked the ability to rise to the top of the social structure, and that was really the only way to really effect change. Seems that the internet has provided a means for the dummies to band together (or be manipulated by more intelligent people into banding together) to effect change of their own. Seems like they might start to get seats at the table and turns at the wheel.

    That's my point. A mob was incited to storm a full session of Congress; members of Congress narrowly escaped and one person was shot dead on the scene. Nobody who was truly responsible has been taken to task for it. With this precedent, what greater violence could FN "incite" that such a big company could be successfully sued? The individual actors will always take the fall, and probably do so "bravely" as self-proclaimed "patriots".

    They'd have to say / publish something pretty egregious. I mean, if the president can incite an insurrection and get away scot free, there's no way anything FN is doing now can stick to them.

    It would be interesting to study how susceptible people are to the kind of misinformation that brought about this army of Q-nuts, as a function of developed vs. underdeveloped countries. Of course there's the factor of access to information, internet, etc., but I'm guessing that a lot of the people in the underdeveloped world are too busy thinking about sustaining food and shelter or worrying about their unstable government / social systems that they have no time for these BS conspiracy theories. 1st world problems.

    Pretty sure the J&J is a different (inactive) virus (adenovirus) that's been modified to have the COVID spike proteins on the surface. There's some pretty good info in the article I linked a page or two earlier in the thread.

    Dude don't u know I saw this youtube vid saying John Hopkins was the most influential of all the Johns Hopkins he didn't sell out to big pharma so u should totally trust that graph.

    My wife bought that one for herself to build (6+ months ago). I'll let you know how it is if she ever gets around to building it.

    https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2021/12/vaccine-durability-annual-covid-boosters/620863/ Interesting article about what remains to be seen regarding the J&J "slow burn" vaccine.

    Yeah after I thought about it more, I came to the same conclusion that this was a big deal and it was a fair question. But then I thought of what the response from the right would be if Biden gave a reasonable answer, and it would probably be to attack / ridicule him making the point lost. Perhaps it's better that the journalists find a way to get the important information out there (that Trump knowingly exposed Biden) in a way where Biden can also get in a dig at Trump that doesn't allow for an inflammatory response from the right.

    I hope he is forced to use his full name on the ballot because his bread and butter will have to come from rural, backwoods Pennsylvanians, and I'd love to see the mental gymnastics when a lot of these good ol' boys place their checkmark next to a dude named Mehmet Cengiz Öz.
  25. EdamAnchorman
    IMO that's the perfect response for him to have about any question regarding Trump. It's so obvious that these kinds of questions are designed to stir the pot and create clickbait headlines, and it's sad that journalists do that kind of stuff. It's part of the reason why we are so polarized right now.
