Calling him a conman turns his supporters into victims, and at this stage that's no longer an acceptable explanation of events.

I grew up with and am surrounded by a large number of them. They are victims, imo.

Conman. Noun.

A man who cheats or tricks someone by gaining their trust and persuading them to believe something that is not true.

Yup. Trying to say he’s not one is just semantics at best.

tbh I doubt the vast majority of people who support him will ever believe they were conned. Like, what can he do/what can be revealed at this point to show them that he’s conning them? It’s morphed into more of a religious kind of con at this point. Many go to their graves not knowing the whole thi...

A fool and his money…

Bingo. He’s a con man… takes people a loooooong time to figure out they’ve been conned. It’s painful. It’s embarrassing. It’s not easy to admit to yourself let alone to others.

Passed first time crew, checking in.

That was a fun game in Happy Valley. I went, tailgated, chatted to a bunch of nice WVU fans, weather was gorgeous, had a hell of a time. Hopefully Morgantown will return the favor to traveling Nittany Lion fans.

Not me, but a story I recall from a guy in high school. Apparently there was a lot of construction going on near and around the DMV at the time (It's Pennsyvlania in the summer, so it checks out). The tester said they'd go on a route he doesn't normally go due to said construction. The tester said "...

Sorry I missed that, I got my license in '99.

Were you in PA at the time?

Seems like it was 99 when it went into effect in PA, and before that (according to the article) the limit was midnight.

Yeah, we weren't allowed out past 11 when I got my license. That was until you turn 18 then you're allowed. I drove past 11 all the time, but it was mostly for work reasons which was an allowable exception. I never got pulled over though.

This was spring of 2003.

The latter. I'm sure there are political operatives working 24/7 to try and make Biden look as bad as possible (Trump does not need such help), but he's not doing himself any favors with the way he's handling Israel, student loans, inflation, housing, women's health and a variety of other factors. T...

Oh **** it embeds????

It's not X... of course it embeds.

Unfortunately, looking more and more like that's gonna be the case.

Super excited for the Trump trial to go to the jury, they'll find him guilty, and he'll get fined and move on with his life.

Are we forgetting one of the best rock ballads disney has ever produced?

It's kinda neat to see that we still use the same camera angle they used back then. One of the comments says this is from '57.

I'm one of six kids, and we spread out all across the East Coast (from oldest to youngest: Altoona, Vermont, me (State College), NYC, North Carolina, Philly). Vermont, me, and North Carolina are the only ones with kids (1 each). So, as you can imagine, visiting nieces and nephews are pretty much min...

Am I the only moron just now realizing OceanGate was the name of a company and not a stupid play off Watergate to name the implosion situation?

I don't think there's any connection at all. They just found a list of chains that are closing and decided to read them outloud.

They easily could have done the same with ones that are opening new places... https://www.eatthis.com/fastest-growing ... ains-2024/ take your pick.

Youth soccer being more exciting than youth baseball/softball is a wild take

What age are we talking? I'd say 10 years old and younger, soccer is far more enjoyable to watch than baseball. After that, it's personal preference.

I'm not gonna watch that but did they rearrange the first letters of each restaurant to spell FAUCI or something stupid like that? I watched... it's just a list of franchise restaurants that are closing places. I don't get the text in the tweet, though: "What do you notice about this new list of re...

If I don't believe it yet, I guess I'm never going to believe that otherwise seemingly sane people read that ish and still want to vote for the guy, because "sanctity of life" or "Biden's policies are worse" or whatever. The otherwise seemingly sane people that are going to vote for him will never ...
