Joe Biden 2022: Enter Dark Brandon
@Trey3216 - you may have missed this but just wanted to confirm. Your thought is that if the execution of Afghanistan withdrawal went super smooth, Putin wouldn't have invaded Ukraine, or even been less likely to invade? How would that have impacted his thinking?

2022 NBA Draft
I think the big 3 all have more potential / higher ceiling than Ivey (not by a lot) but that Ivey has a significantly higher floor than Paolo and Chet (and similar to Jabari). I have a really hard time not seeing Ivey be at least very good, but I can see both Paolo and Chet being mediocre. I agree that it wouldn't surprise me at all to see the Thunder take Ivey but not necessarily because he has more upside.

NBA Playoffs 2022
So far the Warriors have outscored the Celtics in the 3rd quarter by 14, 21, 8, and 6. Hot take alert but if the Celtics can't come out hot in the 3rd they might need to start sizing the Warriors for some rings.

Post a pic that makes you say "Holy shit."
It's really not that hard. See this handy rules explainer. Balk Rules You can't just be up there and just doin' a balk like that. 1a. A balk is when you 1b. Okay well listen. A balk is when you balk the 1c. Let me start over 1c-a. The pitcher is not allowed to do a motion to the, uh, batter, that prohibits the batter from doing, you know, just trying to hit the ball. You can't do that. 1c-b. Once the pitcher is in the stretch, he can't be over here and say to the runner, like, "I'm gonna get ya! I'm gonna tag you out! You better watch your butt!" and then just be like he didn't even do that. 1c-b(1). Like, if you're about to pitch and then don't pitch, you have to still pitch. You cannot not pitch. Does that make any sense? 1c-b(2). You gotta be, throwing motion of the ball, and then, until you just throw it. 1c-b(2)-a. Okay, well, you can have the ball up here, like this, but then there's the balk you gotta think about. 1c-b(2)-b. Fairuza Balk hasn't been in any movies in forever. I hope she wasn't typecast as that racist lady in American History X. 1c-b(2)-b(i). Oh wait, she was in The Waterboy too! That would be even worse. 1c-b(2)-b(ii). "get in mah bellah" -- Adam Water, "The Waterboy." Haha, classic... 1c-b(3). Okay seriously though. A balk is when the pitcher makes a movement that, as determined by, when you do a move involving the baseball and field of 2) Do not do a balk please.

(Discussion) how surly is too surly? where does the line get drawn?
Full disclosure. I negged solely to have @slorch pos rep @Iceman. I want to see the duality of man, the Jungian thing.

Boo fucking hoo Ashli Babbitt
Fair enough. While I wouldn't say "absolutely" that is only in a pedantic sense in that we can't know for certainty. But I would at least say very likely saved lives. I certainly think the officer made the correct decision so not trying to cast any aspersion on the shooting itself, but I also think the ghoulish glee is over the top.

Boo fucking hoo Ashli Babbitt
Babbitt sucked and her death, on balance, may have saved lives by preventing further intrusion. But celebrating her death with such glee is pretty gross.

January 6th Committee Hearings Thread of Dominance
@ChickenSandwich - Apologies, I just realized I mixed up you and @Cheeseweasel. I must have had food on the brain. You may have been a bit confused but cheese was recently complaining about the silencing / negging of decent discourse in the CR. With that said, @Cheeseweasel - is this the type of discourse that you think is missing in the CR? Or will you find a random post from @DalTxHornFan somewhere that seems fine at first glance but has negs and just blame the CR?

January 6th Committee Hearings Thread of Dominance
Do you often start conversations with your wife of 40 years with "Hey dumb cunt, what do you want for dinner?" and then calmly ask for reasoned response afterwards?

@ChickenSandwich - is this more of that principled conservative discussion that you think is unfairly attacked in the CR?

Tell Me About Texas a&m
You can have any opinion you want about Rittenhouse but him tweeting about going to aggy, being publicly rejected, then tweeting about going to Blinn and being publicly rejected is pretty fucking on brand for aggy. That should be fully celebrated in this thread.

Active shooter thread
As is often the case the argument is both right and wrong. The essence is that FMJ rounds are less lethal to what they hit but are more likely to penetrate the target and/or walls and hit a secondary target. Hollow points are more lethal to what they hit but less likely to hit secondary targets. I don't know enough to make any assumptions on average accuracy, total damage done, etc., but I do get that a case could be made for either as a "safer" bullet.

2022 MLB thread
Can you explain why Roberts should not have subjected a pitcher to the exact same heinous fate that he was going to subject a position player to? Did Pujols throw warm up pitches before he threw a few weeks ago? I don't this this is a top 10 ever MLB scandal or anything but it just baffles me how it is being ignored.

Fucking electric rates are nuts
It is 100% true <if> as Quagmire noted you owe for the panels because of a lease (not just through a loan). The lease payments are generally not favorable after the first few years and most purchasers don't want to make high payments for panels that are a generation (or two) out of date. Are there exceptions? Of course, but every realtor I know suggested we avoid panels until we could purchase rather than lease as they tend to subtract from house value.

2022 MLB thread
Have him throw warm up pitches in the game. Give up hits or walks. I mean do you see pitchers blow out their arms warming up in the bullpen on a regular basis? Just ask the pitcher to do the same damn thing the position player was going to do.

2022 MLB thread
Which is funny, but then they just delayed the game for 15 minutes so the Dodgers could warm someone up. What the fuck? Do opponents of the Dodgers now get to just randomly delay a game 15 minutes because they forgot to have someone warm up? Some Dodgers reliever should have gone out and tossed meatballs or just walked 3-4 dudes. MLB just deciding to let the Dodgers get special rules in pretty on par for MLB.

Русский корабль - иди нахуй
Holy shit, @MillerEP must be asleep, I can't believe I'm beating him on this, but it's actually a somewhat even fight. The Trebuchet has 20 tons on the Javelin but the Jav has jump jets and is way more maneuverable.
