    Schools that do time capsules and expect you to remember when they will be dug back up.

    When I was 8 years old in 4th grade my middle school buried a time capsule that each student was asked to submit an item(s) to.

    35 years later and I'm still wondering what the heck I put into it, when it will be dig up(or if it already was) or if anyone who was involved in coordinating is still alive to carry out the digging it back up.

    That thing could be a treasure trove. All the items from 1983 or older....

    remember when calling someone a "commie" was worse than calling them an MFer? Up until about 1990 I would have seriously punched someone in the face if they called me a commie.

    Trump 2016 "Only I can fix everything"

    Trump 2017 "Everything is great because of me"

    Trump 2018 "it's not my fault, I didn't do anything"

    I give the man credit he is worth the price of admission to watch this **** show.

    He's the first anybody in DC whose tried to address our butterfly net border security. He has my full support. My message to every other American president and member of congress of the last forty years is simple: YOU SUCK.

    WTH are you talking about?
    First of all, you just basically described Rush Limbaugh's Obama Theory verbatim (only applying it to Trump)
    Secondly, what exactly is not his fault? More importantly what exactly is not his fault that is really his fault?

    You know germ, in the 3 years since I joined I can't say I have ever seen you post anything about hunting. Might be better off selling that nonsense on a CNN forum.

    Not that the fed should also be concerned with other concerns, like the economic cycle, inflation and other macroeconomic & political concerns... and with recent bear markets activity increasing a flight to high quality bonds, GICS and such...since investors like pension funds and 401Ks, states and federal debt are heavily invested in...

    Oh, and this earlier article before the "irrational exuberance" broke out in the market yesterday...
    Fed warns that a 'particularly large' plunge in market prices is possible if risks materialize - https://www.cnbc.com/2018/11/28/fed...-prices-is-possible-if-risks-materialize.html

    Next economic lull should be 2021 based on the economic cycle, with a typical couple year slide top the low.

    Hey jerkoffs - this is the rant thread. Get back to complaining about nonsense and leave poor Germ alone. You can fight about Trumpy in another thread.

    I know we've talked about the guys who feel the need to walk around the locker room at the gym buck ass naked for excessive amounts of time. That's an old rant. But today I had a guy getting changed next to me and as he was removing his underwear he bent over so far his bunghole almost reached out and grabbed me. I felt that was entirely unnecessary. Squat my man. Squat! Don't bend over.

    how does a grown man even do that? bending over to touch my toes = stretching, not bending over to pick something up.

    I think something happened in my sleep last night, I have about a dozen replies in my head and I am going to just not go there.

    Having spent the last 11 years working in the fitness industry, I have always wanted to walk into the locker room with a 45lb bar to use as an object lesson for old men who do not get personal space. Unfortunately, that would quickly get me fired.
