What ever happened to the counterculture?

[JayhawkCO]

If I'm not mistaken, every other "foray" into acquiring Greenland was via purchase, not the invasion of a NATO partner.

Has he actually explicitly said that?  Other than "one way or the other"?  I've been keeping away from the news but chalking this one up to hype.

He did not rule out military force.

[kphoger]

So someone else said it.  Yeah, OK.

I mean, he was asked if he would rule out using military force, and he said no. That wasn't through an intermediary. Sure, someone else prompted him with the question, but you can't argue that that means he didn't say it.

I think that social media has increased the pressure to conform.

If it outs cretins who think it's appropriate to salute people while looking like a human sundial, then I'm all for their downfall into the dwellings of society's gutter.

Never mind, that's not even fair to the rainwater.

I think seven drinks is my personal best while posting on the forum.  Weddings and booze tend to get me browsing the Internet.

My wife is currently out of the country on vacation leaving me to be the sole caregiver for my son. Once he goes to bed, the stress gets relieved.

On occasion I used to consume a six pack during weekend days off (usually over 6-8 hours).  My girlfriend (now wife) kept mentioning she thought it was an odd way to relax, so I stopped.  A lot of my older forum posts came during that time and things around here in general were more busy.

I'm a sommelier. Sommeliers drink wine. It's just in our nature.

Anything beyond three drinks leaves me feeling like crap and unable to sleep soundly.  Four if they're spread out across the whole evening.

But I only really ever have anything to drink if I'm (a) cooking and eating dinner with wine, (b) enjoying a relaxing weekend afternoon cocktail, (c) chilling with the family in the evening while we watch TV, or (d) with company.  In all of those situations, getting on this forum is the furthest thing from my mind.  So 100% of my posts on here are 100% sober.

Sorry officer, I only check my mirror once before running over sacred cows.

I haven't had three drinks in a day in over twenty years. I might intake that much in 3-6 months.

[Rothman]

I dom't drink and therefore don't have to worry about how much I've drunk before I do anything.

Then why the typo?

Sorry, I just assumed based on your post.

I was trying to say "fuck the Nazis" in a more elegant way.

That would be a lack of...glasses.

Maybe lack of full glasses.... of booze.

Glad you got the pun.

[kphoger]

Lack of glasses, drinking from the bottle instead.

Overall the counter culture just became the norm. It really didn't disappear as those from that era are in charge

Remember Bill Clinton was the first hippie to become president followed by Barack Obama later.

So the protesters of the 60s and 70s are finally in position of where the previous generation was before them.

[kphoger]

Barack Obama

ah the choom gang, def a flower child

[mgk920]

ahhh, when does everyone believe that we'll be seeing the first pre-April of 1865 USA slave-descended POTUS?

Ah yes, famous hippie Barack Obama - who first gained notoriety for skipping two days of third grade to attend Woodstock and who later burned his draft card while at the age of 10.

I'm waiting for him to send the troops in to take Greenland by force.
