Tundras live: Dumb Dad Jokes, Incorrect Opinions, Relationship Advice, and Parking Etiquette

A favorite movie convo that @LarryDangerfield dissagreed with. Some bad jokes as well as a few people worried about the price hikes were about to see on maple syrup.

 

Well that makes me want to go back and look so I can disagree too!!

And yeah, but us lowly Americans wont have to worry. Big Syrup will just cut our stash more to keep pricing in control.

 

Marketing. Shit ruins everything.

Kinda like naming your kid Andrea but it's pronounced Awndrea.

I do not think I have seen taxi driver, but his review on The Departed makes me immediately not trust him... next thing he will say is Green Street Hooligans is a solid 3 and then I would have to hate him. So I will not be reading more of his reviews at this point.

 

@LarryDangerfield I have to suggest you watch Point Break.

The first one.

 

Four Brothers
Green street hooligans
District 9
3:10 to Yuma
Grit
Inglorious Bastards
Anything with Jason Stathom
The Shawshank Redemption
Pulp Fiction
Fight Club
American History X
Man on Fire
The Departed
No Country for Old Men
American Gangster
Blood Diamond
Schindler's List
Platoon
Tombstone
The Godfather

 

Plus, I need to point out that Point Break is the only good thing Anthony Kiedis from the RH Chili Poopers has ever done.


And when he got shot in the foot, he really brought the method acting to a new level, should have been a new Oscar category, IMO.

 

Yes but in SLC. (I do have a Denver downtown office as well.)

 

I miss SLC, but I do not miss the air quality.

 

The inversions can be bad. This year not so bad. It was 60 today with strong winds which means a storm is brewing.

 

Yes to all these.

I even like the 1956 version of 3:10 to Yuma though I'm sure no one else would.

 

Office in LoDo about two blocks from Union Station

 

I once stayed at the hotel in the old station - very unique crowd of folks there. Never again.

 

I was looking at high crime/shitty counties and came across this.
Houston-check
Austin - check
Denver - check

I reckon, if we concentrated our crime fighting efforts to the "blue" sections, we could lower the stats by 80%.

or thereabouts....


appears to be a correlation with how people vo...........nevermind.

 

Big time facts. I built the I70 tunnel near Purina in Swansea a couple of years ago and the shit we saw wandering around the job was mind blowing. Lots of folks with little to no regard for the law.

 

I live in one of the not blue counties south of Denver and can confirm your hypothesis

 

I can imagine. Nice job on that tunnel btw.

 

Thank you! It was a cool job but I’m very glad it’s over now

 

Me neither. Public streets are also the insane asylums, among other things. It’s an efficiency thing.

It’s not a color thing. People are concentrating where they can get help while they die, or where they can, but they are everywhere in smaller numbers. Except I’m assuming in your neighborhood. That’s not a safe or efficient place for them to hang out, I’d assume.

 

This.

Hospitals & densely populated apartment complexes breed social service dependency.

concentrating, not necessarily to die, but to survive, for free, off the gov dole.

its been instilled/taught for generations.

Austin Tx is ruined.

Houston, TX is ruined.

both, literally, have no-go zones.


I do live far enough to not be directly affected....but, we are now surrounded by "all that". it's only a matter of time.

We moved here because zoning does not allow multi-family dwellings & home must be >3k SqFt.


If we stay on the present course, thing may improve in the next few years.
it will be painful....insert storming, norming, performing graph.

 

They’re going to where they can, to die as slowly as possible, which is a common goal. Until they are put somewhere else, I assume efficiently.

 

Speaking as someone who lived in Surprise, AZ for 5 years (West Valley, Maricopa County), Tuscon had a reputation of being the Arizona version of Berkeley/Oakland of California amongst the native and long term Arizonan's I interacted with. Not surprised you see that kind of craziness on the way to work.

In many places in California if you venture out of the touristy areas you will see stuff like that. You end up with enclaves of very expensive communities with their private security, middle class neighborhoods that are semi-safe but crime bleeds into and everywhere else.
