How many other polarizing VPs have there been? Is there a list?

I don't necessarily think this is even something that means a lot to Trump, but he could have been asked to put this pressure on by one of his benefactors. Shipping regulations and their opposition pops up a lot in the book Waste Wars by Alex Clapp.

Went to bed after the 6th last night, now reading the play by play going "Oh My God" after each at bat

I wonder if this video is meant to be an experiment in itself.

I hear Bibi said, "he'll never get that Peace Prize, now" and started laughing until he shat himself.

I had my assumptions, so I was a little surprised when the first guy didn't tell any shitty jokes, but that's probably by design. The rest of it was pretty much what I expected and it bums me out. It was kind of interesting that so much of the audience wasn't laughing, though.

I like to believe that the old fuck was yelling at me specifically for not laughing. The amount of times comedians chastised the audience for "pulling back" was kind of pathetic, the crowd work was shit, it was frankly embarrassing.

Then yelled at the crowd for not laughing. There was a Black man who's bit I actually kind of liked but he used the N-word a lot and I looked around the audience and just wondered who that was for. Last comic was a Black woman who made a bunch of jokes about how she got treated like she was trans?

The first guy was decent, the second guy's entire bit was about drunk driving until he started doing crowd work and said he ran out of time to do trans jokes, there was some old guy that was entirely responsible for hitting my over/under 10 times I would hear the R-word...

In Austin for a bachelor party and the host got us tickets to the Comedy Mothership last night. 24 hours later and I'm still marveling about how bad it was.

A family friend is now working for an AI startup getting funding from Meta and when I asked what it was he was working on, it took an awful lot of words to say, "we're still trying to figure it out."

But mostaccioli is just even more boring - and slightly unsettling - penne. It's definitely mostaccioli.
