    Bruce Willis retires

    Actually a pretty profound reply. There is more to life than what can be expressed in language. Still sucks I am sure but its a thought worth considering, whats left after language is gone?

    Its not an especially easy area for newcomers to learn. I am very grateful for this resource and not complaining, but just to explain what I mean - sometimes the words of wisdom from our resident experts look pretty cryptic to the uninitiated. As an example, Sanriths response to Zog about the...

    I'm not doubting covid hastened it but I had the same experience shortly pre covid. I was like what the fuck, do you not actually understand what the word "reservation" means? Turns out, they redefined it and I was the one who didnt understand the new meaning

    Good, now they can just drop him and get Jim Parsons himself instead of some half-rate Jim Parsons impersonator

    Yeah, I agree, this is the only kind of approach I can see right now. Not an efficient way to ask the question unfortunately, going one by one to finally make a sortable list. The investing information space is weird to me. The kinds of information I expect to find in searchable databases is...

    I'm thinking about REITs and interested in searching based on where their properties are located. Not finding a good resource - anyone know of one? I can find lots of stuff that says "yes this REIT has properties in state X" or "here are the REITs with property in state X", but what I want is...

    Will Smith n Oscar Town

    Funny thing is I had no idea Will Smith let people plow his wife til this happened. If he'd just left it at a joke about hair loss I still wouldnt. Fucking city people, they are all fucked in the head and its hilarious.

    Justice League (2017)

    I dunno. Chuk talks about the original Superman but that was before any of our lifetimes. The superman comics I remember most always featured pretty retarded, superman-specific villains that made it like he wasnt even part of the bigger DCU. Shit like Mister Mxyzptlk. Bizarro. Superman vs...

    Justice League (2017)

    This is it, its exactly why MCU worked. Prior to the Iron Man movie, the Avengers were C-list Marvel superheroes. Every comic reader knew who they were, and a little about them, but they were basically nobody's favorite superheroes. (somebody always wants to chime in and be the exception on...

Rubles, Russian stocks, any other plays for a Russian recovery after the conflict ends or at least fades...

    Its only a month or two ago I was getting kicked off other forums for mentioning inflation. They said it was "too political" and asked me for sources. lol.

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    eh - theres a huge amount of unknowns. Mysteries. Shit we don't understand. The default starting position in the universe is "I don't know shit" and for 99.99999+% of the universe - including our own history - we're still at that stage. Actual evidence of a non-human intelligence anywhere in...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    lol no, while I agree with your assertion that there are likely many unknown, lost ancient civilizations, Occams razor clearly points to a different conclusion than you've reached about UFOs. its all made up, 100%. Not even convincingly. Not even the kind of thing where you come away thinking...

    This is one of the things you guys talk about that still sounds like magic. The twitching becomes uncontrollable long before I see 133%. Good example, I caught a nice short term run on AVAV. Trimmed half at 24%. It dipped then back up, I sold the rest at 33%. If I'd held just a couple days...

    Fuck IPA. IPA is like if someone tasted coffee, with its rich and complex profile of bitter and aromatic tastes... and said "hey I bet I can make this MORE BITTER!"

    The period joke goes on way too fucking long for a kids movie. I was like ok, I guess theyre gonna do a bunch of jokes about diarrhea and masturbation too? No, just periods. For like a solid 5 minutes. In a kids movie that young boys may be watching. Yeah, thats good clean fun.

    This is useful, thanks. I will say that my ignorance is not for a lack of reading the thread; what I've found (maybe just some defect in how I'm wired) is its difficult to reconstruct the previous discussion because I wasnt watching the market at the time. What has been incredibly useful is...

    What I don't understand about this position is, its certainly true long term but inflation doesnt cut 20-50% of your value overnight, while in theory a market crash can. Why not pull back for a short period when things are shit? Seems like a minor loss for a large benefit (if done at the right...

    Yesterday was quite a ride. My USEG fluctuated between +180% and +70% throughout the course of the day; my total portfolio ranged from +2 to +4 over the same range.

    I'd be curious to hear some thoughts on cutting losses in a trading context (stocks I have no interest in holding long term). Any general rules of thumb you guys go by? e.g. I had a couple that were down like 1-2% and didnt foresee them recovering in the time frame I wanted so I had no major...

    Whats an overcooked chicken wing? Never been to BWW but if they cook their wings crispy by default I'm gonna have to try it.

    On reflection, I don't think they actually explained to the German wagon train folks what the danger was. At least not on camera. I mean, it wasnt just the usual dangers of the trail. There was a very specific reason why they all needed to get the fuck out right away. When the Germans said they...

    I've never understood the choice of 50 and 200. I get that once the market starts using a certain level like that it becomes self fulfilling, but what I'm wondering about is why those levels were chosen in the first place. Arbitrary round numbers or more than that? Seems like something based...

    While "miss" isnt the right word I do think every now and then that Keg and GeneralAntony would fit in well on todays FOH and contribute some quality entertainment. Is Lithose gone? things have been kind of concise around here lately
