Maybe so. But a much larger % of my posts are actually engaging in genuine discussion, rather than just shit talking nonsense.

Nah. When I can avoid about 3 (maybe 4) of a select few individuals I am almost 100% talking about the topic at hand. But it's hard to avoid a couple of you fisherman.

Might want to take a look at your posting history.

Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming.

The "American dream" is running onto the rocky shoal of reality.

if you work hard and put your nose to the grindstone, you can accomplish whatever you want. That’s why this country is the greatest country on earth.

anybody can be and do anything they can dream up.

"if you work hard and put your nose to the grindstone, you can accomplish whatever you want".

* Perhaps "can" - but often don't.
As a child I worked my ass off to be a great hockey player because I wanted to play in the NHL. I didn't "accomplish" that goal.


"That's why this country is the greatest country on Earth"?

* Many if not most profession/s wise, what can I (or anyone else) accomplish in the United States that I can't accomplish in another country?


"anybody can be and do anything they can dream up".

* I can be a Unicorn living in the Sahara Desert and be married to a super model?
I can be an 8 foot tall Black MALE WNBA player?
I can single handily eliminate all poverty on the planet?

Lies told by parents, coaches and teachers to their kids and students. No matter how hard I work and how much I want it, I will not be the next center for the New York Knicks.

good god you have a real misplaced superiority complex.

It has nothing to do with bumfuck Oregon. Its a nationwide cement shortage that has been brewing. They started seeing its impacts in the Southeast in March. Its now on the West Coast.

I can get concrete, its just a harder process and not guaranteed the way it has been the last 25 years.


As I said earlier, this isn't directly related to the thread topic but seems as good a place as any to put it. Tough to build a house without concrete. We still have a housing shortage, this doesn't help that problem.

I’ve said this a few different ways, but mich is a real special kind of stupid. He still believes the bullshit myths we tell young kids. He claims to have grandkids which means he’s likely a had a full functioning brain for 50+ years and he still hasn’t figured this stuff out.

Would not be surprised if he still believes in Santa Claus

Having the opportunity to pursue your dream isn't the same as having a guaranteed outcome.

But you know that.

The word he used was "accomplish", not "pursue".
