Dead

Beat up a haole day.  It is a real thing.
My dad, who passed away two years ago, lived in Hawaii for the last decade of his life and there off and on for thirty years before that.  He had a Hawaiian wife and her family is completely awesome.  I don't think Hawaii is any different than anywhere else, lots of cool people and a few a-holes.
Of course they don't like the massive amounts of tourists that hit their beaches but most beach towns in SoCal are the same way toward "inlanders"

Locals here are generally friendly, gracious, and hard working. Just about everyone works multiple jobs. “Island time” is a thing though, things get done at a slower pace than on the mainland. One of the most refreshing things about moving here has been the fact that my patients are appreciative and polite. I had worked for the same hospital on the mainland for more than a decade and the average patient had become incredibly entitled and angry (mostly white people, sorry Cals). There is a some annoyance with tourists, but I don’t find it to be any different than the annoyance locals feel toward tourists anywhere else I have lived. 

Honestly the locals are mostly bums. Their laziness is only surpassed by the Middle East and sub Saharan Africa. Also a very ungrateful group. Without America they’re easily part of Japan or China by now. 

Disagree with first sentence, second one is spot on.

Not to get political but, “let’s go Brandon” is the dumbest fucking thing I’ve every heard. Just say fuck Biden. We said fuck Trump. Also… let’s go Mandon is even dumber than let’s go Brandon.

well this thread has lost any real discussion.
This argument has ruined many a thread.

Half of the posters in this thread thought Maddon was the brains behind the team's success under Sosh.
Regardless, it is one decision in a season of thousands.  

I don't believe I undermined anything.  I didn't like it but he and every other Angel manager has made horrible, head-scratching decisions.  If you want to talk about levels of bad decisions, that is fine.  I still think it is just one decision and to judge anyone on one decision is foolish IMO.

Adam Visits Brandon is a classic comics series that I wish I could find somewhere.
 

I don't think it passes but it shows the elements in this country who believe businesses have that much extra money around to do this while also somehow not believing that it would end up right back on the consumer.
