So much for hot tips…No RAPESQUATCH in Vondelpark, and Tante Zaan’s was STEVE SMITH free as well. Something just doesn’t add up. Well, I have one more place to check, nearby… heard some odd things might be going on down on Willemsparkweg. Close by, so it can’t hurt to look.

@#$% – I am getting played. This is just like the last place. STEVE SMITH couldn’t just stroll into one of these pensions or apartments… and just how did he get past me at Schiphol? I mean there isn’t… OH NO! Water… he came by water… SEA SMITH, DAMN YOU! Now I am worried – BOTH the SMITHS?! There has to be a place down here…Ah! Reijner Vinkelskade is right by here…That had to be where SEA SMITH dropped his cousin off. @#$%

Too late. I am so screwed. Nothing for it but to run over to The Hague and wait for him. #$%& outsmarted by the SMITHS. I won’t be living this down any time soon.

I’m kind of afraid of what will happen to Swiss if Swiss finds STEVE SMITH! It may lose us our Family Friendly certification.
No, the welcome mat would say, “AND BY WELCOME MEAN….”

Christ, what an asshole.
How many of them were adults aged 18-20?
Yeah 18+ does not get the moniker “kid”. Also, this happened in a state where they already have the “common sense” gun restrictions this douche bag is pimping for.
Ignore that most of this is gang violence
Ignore the 15% solve rate
Ignore that no one in these neighborhoods is cooperating
Ignore that the WOD is what makes these thugs money and violent
We should imprison 98% of teenagers as a matter of course. The fact that it’s an incredibly small percentage of them who commit violent crime doesn’t change the fact that it’s teens who commit most of the crimes in the US.
Sorry – “commit a plurality of crimes in the US.”
If piglet wants to self identify as a child, I am more than happy to further ignore his babbling.
It’s “clown nose on, clown nose off” – he’s to be listened to because of his experience, but if you disagree with him you’re attacking a child.
Dear Mr. Hogg,
Profanity is the weapon of the witless, as the saying goes. Once you graduate high school, injecting profanity into a debate or conversation needlessly makes you look immature. Also, while being a hysterical, emotional wreck might feel good, it makes you look like, well, a hysterical, emotional wreck, not like someone who has good ideas.
FUCK YOU IN THE NECK BILL!!!!
I am not a hysterical emotional wreck and you will not steal my voice!

Has anyone told this to Nick Gillespie on TOS?
Take it up with local government. I live half a continent away. No my fault and not my problem.
Andre, Jamal, Trevon, Willie, Darnell, Tyrone, DeShawn, Demetrious. I think that’s probably a good percentage of them.
“Paul Manafort being held in solitary confinement, lawyers say
Paul Manafort, the former Trump campaign manager who was sent to jail in June for allegedly tampering with witnesses in the special counsel investigation, is being held in solitary confinement in a Virginia prison cell for 23 hours a day, his lawyers said on Friday.
Manafort, according to his lawyer, is being secluded because correctional officials “cannot otherwise guarantee his safety.”
He was sent to jail on June 15 pending trial after pleading not guilty to charges filed by the special counsel, which alleged that he and his associate, Konstantin Kilimnik, of Moscow, obstructed justice in the Russia investigation.
Manafort has asked a federal appeals court to order his release from custody pending his separate upcoming federal trials, the earliest of which starts in Virginia later in July.”

“Feminism has destabilized the American family
In 1970, three furious feminist tracts dominated the bestseller lists: Kate Millett’s “Sexual Politics,” Germaine Greer’s “The Female Eunuch,” and Shulamith Firestone’s “The Dialectic of Sex.” They, and others who comprised what was then called the “women’s lib” movement, fulminated against male dominance, endorsed sexual liberation and demanded that the nuclear family be smashed.”

This is my surprised face.
Mona Charen? Isn’t she a Republican? What could she know?
Looks like the hooligans are going to get a tired, injured team in the semis. 😡
Glad Russia lost: it’s a small measure of justice for their interference that got Trump elected.
Good. We need a healthy team to take out France or Belgium.
Good luck with that. Not saying it’s not possible, just that I know how I’d be betting.
(Which I wouldn’t in this tournament)
Oh well. I suppose I can console myself with the fact that one of France or Belgium won’t win.
Then Rhywun guide to the 2018 World Cup.
Sorry, douche move. I don’t know who you’re supporting.
I’m just glad to see Brazil and Germany out, so someone (relatively) new can win. Despite the fact that I won $400 off Brazil winning in 2002.
Heh no prob. Of the teams that are left I suppose sure why not England. More importantly, anyone but France or Belgium.
Is there a SLEET SMITH?
::surreptitiously places hand over frostbit rectum::
Um, no. Never heard of SLEET SMITH here in Minnesoda. There are no legends up here about a large beast that prowls the villages of fish houses on a frozen lake during the dark of a new moon, looking to check anglers for their licenses and by check licenses I mean …
Nope. Nosirree.
We traced the call. STEVE SMITH is calling from inside the house…
?
Awesome horror flick.
As it turns out, cocaine actually is a helluva drug.

Just spent the afernoon doing one of those tasks that makes me question the wisdon of owning my own home – relpaced the leaking garbage disposal, 200 bucks and an afternoon under the sink later and we’re right back to where we were before my wife noticed the leak. Wish I could still drink
That sucks. Blame your wife. She’s the one that noticed the leak.
I’d follow the “whoever smelt it, dealt it” system of assigning home repair but it would all get passed over to me anyway, so I might as well nip it in the bud.
I pick my battles with home repairs. Minor, easy stuff I’ll do and the rest goes to my contractor BIL.
Where is it leaking? Between the sink and disposal? Did you layer down a circle of plumber’s putty? Tighten the nut really, really tight?
All the joints were fine.
It was coming from INSIDE the disposal!!
Disposal runs when you turn the water on? Manual switch? Seems strange. NIB I presume?
Sorry, you’re on your own at this point
Disposal ran with the water on, but that wasn’t going to last long. It was dripping insde when I took it off – lucky it didn’t catch on fire.
Did you check the thermostat?
Did you turn it off, wait 30 seconds, and turn it on again?
Did you layer down a circle of plumber’s putty? Tighten the nut really, really tight?
Are you talking about his garbage disposal, or him and his wife’s sex life?
No matter where the conversation starts it ends up here.
One reason I keep coming back.
For me, that task was the leak in the main drainage line that required me to climb into my almost century-old crawlspace. Whatever entrance once existed had been boarded up and carpeted over ages ago, so I had to bust a hole in the limestone wall with a sledgehammer. I climbed in, and there’s only about one to two feet of vertical clearance. I found where the pipe was leaking, and there was a whole fucking jungle of spiderwebs around the thing. The water was apparently supporting life, which led to an entire ecosystem with golf-ball sized spiders as the apex predators. There must have been hundreds of fully grown black widows, brown recluses, and wolf spiders. I had to sweep the spiderwebs away with my hand (thankfully, I wore gloves) and pinpoint where the leak was. The pipe was actually halfway in the dirt, so I had to dig around it so that the plumbers would be able to access it. All the while, I’m frantically swatting spiders before they can crawl up my sleeve and bite me.
That is precisely why, as I pointed out to Yufus yesterday, that as an HVAC person I would cherry-pick the rooftop/attic jobs. Fuck a crawlspace.
The house I’m buying had the evaporator condensation overflowing the drip pan for a few weeks. The attic job at some point added on a crawl space job. Soaked the ceilings, wall, and subfloor. Although the HVAC guy isn’t going to be replacing soaked subfloor.
Glad I didn’t buy the place yet.
Attic crawls can suck just as much as a crawlspace. Just about everything down there can be up there, along with enough concentrated heat to bring a smile to Colonel Saito’s face.
Fuck crawlspaces and double fuck spiders
My dad always had me do the crawlspace work. Claimed he was too big. Yeah, Dad.
California so – earwigs!!! I hate fucking earwigs.
And aligator lizards. Those suckers are mean.
Yeah, that’s way past my line. I’ll swap out a ceiling fan or garbage disposal, but not that.
“There must have been hundreds of fully grown black widows, brown recluses, and wolf spiders.”
I would have burned it down for the insurance money.
I’d be busting out either a hose or air compressor or…. i don’t know, some sort of ‘area weapon’ at that point.
Mankind didn’t rise to become the dominant species by NOT mass-murdering icky things when necessary
In hindsight, I think my course of action if faced with that challenge would be to buy half a dozen bug-bombs, shut-off all pilot lights and open flames, toss em under there grenade style, and take the kids/wife/pets out for a leisurely picnic for 4-6 hours. Let it settle overnight, then commence work the next morning. Or as CP said, arson it and move.
You can live with a leaking disposal. But you can’t live with a wife who knows about the leaking disposal.
Wise words.
How hasn’t this been linked yet??
Apropos of nothing: dark chocolate (and I eat the 90% cocoa stuff) goes well paired with cashews.
It goes well with every nut I’ve encountered.
Including Michael Hihn?
Get out of my head. As I was relaxing in my palatial pool this afternoon I was knocking around the drunken thought of writing an article about dark chocolate and other stuff. I don’t have cashews though.
Do it. DO IT.

“7 Gender-Neutral Terms We Should All Be Using”

And here I was certain Mx was ‘motocross’.
I just realized I’m at the “Get off my lawn” phase of my life.
I don’t give a shit for the most part if some kid calls me Mr or not, but if some punk called me Mx, I would fucking lose it. Of course, I don’t even know what that would sound like, so maybe it has already happened and I just didn’t realize it.
p.s. I have gotten more compliments from people because I raised all my kids to call any adult Mr or Mrs (until the adult told them to do otherwise). People are freaked out by the smallest bits of civility.
Profanity is the weapon of the witless, as the saying goes.
Well, fuck.

EEK!
That gives me the agita just reading about it. I would have to fall back on the old reliable field expedient flame-thrower (a can of the extra long reach wasp/hornet spray and a Zippo).
“White nationalists kicked out of Louisville rally by Trump supporters and Proud Boys”
https://twitter.com/JackPosobiec/status/1015619258326319104
Not relevant, but when did Gavin McInnes make the leap from quasi-tolerable righty to the completely insane Canadian Alex Jones/Glenn Beck hybrid ?
The name “Proud Boys” just makes me think of the Blue Blazers in Buckaroo Banzai.
Proud Boys is such a cringeworthy name. It sounds like a “specialized” video series. NTTIATWWT.
Did I not already declare that it was the gayest gang name since the Chicago Gaylords?
Why are you repeating yourself?
Makes me think of the Ducky Boys for some reason.
Make me thing of this.
Damn, I’ve not heard that song forever.
A special guest star is in that twitter thread’s comments…did you see him?

Wait…isnt the answer always Hitler?

The answer is DONDERO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, who has really let his “piece of shit racist” flag fly since leaving the cradle of HnR.
Is he the answer to your riddle from months ago?
Are you talking about Dondero?//
I can dig it.
I saw Just Say’n. Or did you have someone else in mind?
I did not see him. I assume his twitter handle is different?

Came down with a horrible cold on Friday. So drinking as much as I can to take the agony away.
Amazing how I crave sweet or spicy food when I’m sick like this.
I hope you are feeling better.
For a cold? Sweet bad, spicy good.
Hot and sour soap is my go-to cold treatment
Er, soup
woah – thought this was getting kinky
Not if you add cilantro to your soup. It immediately becomes soap.
High-five!
“Canada PM Justin Trudeau denies groping allegation
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has denied allegations that he groped a reporter at a festival in 2000.
The event in Creston, British Columbia, was held to raise money for an avalanche safety charity with which Mr Trudeau was involved.
Days afterwards, an unsigned editorial appeared in a local paper accusing him of “groping” a young female reporter.
The prime minister said he did not recall any “negative interactions” at the event.”
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-44687654
He should just come out as gay. It’s not like anyone would disbelieve him.
Free pass. I’m sure the derptards on the view will come out and say they wish he would group them.

It’s also not in time.
I have no interest in World Cup soccer, but i do think it would be kind of nice to see England vs. France.
so i will reach out to god and say, “hey god, set up my preferred matchup”, because for some reason, those sorts of prayers seem more-often answered than less-sporting-related-stuff. I think my god is also a sports fan.
So longbows vs. artillery?
Not today. White flag vs White flag. Tomorrow maybe Green flags with a white star and crescent moon.
The oddsmaker are favoring that matchup.
These posts make me want to visit Amsterdam. I am so envious of all the Jet Set Glibs!
If it makes you feel better, it’s utterly teeming in Hawaii right now. Hopefully it knocks off in time for the wedding in two hours.
“Tupac murder: Police close to making arrest, report says
Friday, July 06, 2018 07:58AM
LAS VEGAS —
An arrest is close in the murder of Tupac Shakur, according to a Las Vegas television station.
Las Vegas police, meanwhile, say that is not the case.
The rapper was killed in his car on a Las Vegas street 21 years ago.”
http://abc7chicago.com/3711167/
What a shit clickbait headline.
Was it the same person who killed JonBenet?
They allow black people in Boulder?
I thought they both committed suicide.
Real name: Lesane Crooks.
Heh.
Do you know who else was cursed right up the canal?

+1 multiculturalism
My gardening this year consists of one lone basil plant since I was such a failure last year. Yes, I am a quitter. At least this year.
isn’t this already a crime?
I’m certainly no legal scholar, but I think it would fall under “murder”, ‘accessory to murder’, or some other host of killing-people related charges already.
Best to ask some glib thats been to an actual law school, tho.
Good thing they’re on this. Thats right up there with banning bayonet lugs!
I propose a rough idea for a new iron law:
When a law seems unnecessary, it means the actual purpose differs from the stated purpose
Absolutely. The actual purpose of this one is to ferret out wrongthinkers and club them over the head.
Reading between the lines, it looks like the goal might be to create a felony murder rule for “lynching”. You may not have held the metaphorical noose, you may not even have had any intent to cause harm yourself, but if you were with a group that did, you’re guilty too.
In other words, taking what happened in Charlottesville as an example, the goal would be to throw everybody on the “wrong” side of the protest/riot into jail because one guy ran someone over with his car.
Well, and that’s why I’d think current laws regarding “conspiracy to commit _____ ” would suffice. Although old laws, written by white guys, just aren’t signal-y enough for today.
Also, I think, ‘hate crime’ is a specification/enhancement tacked-on to a current criminal charge, not a charge on its own.
Again with the SLD- I only watch People’s Court, and 99% of that is for Marilyn Milian. I dont pay attention actual cases.
Of course. But it’s not a hate crime. And not supporting this “historic legislation” means you’re racist and evil. Or evil and racist.
I’m just gonna guess that this ties in with this.
I remember that skit. Funny. WOD is stupid. Let the poor girl go. She has enough problems.
“The baggie contained three other baggies that held cocaine, meth, Ecstasy pills, marijuana, and synthetic cannabinoids. And three three Filipino fishermen still in their boat.”
When the SMITHs get together, does one of them get raped by the other? Or do they take turns based on seniority?
That’s what the phrase “rape and pillage” was invented for.
They probably spend the whole day trying to trick each other. Look out behind you! Pounce.
There’s a Morrissey joke in there somewhere that I’m too polite to formulate.

“The bill would define lynching as “the willful act of murder by a collection of people assembled with the intention of committing an act of violence upon any person” and make it a hate crime.”
