Kid Rock or Bad Bunny?

"She opened up wide and put my balls in her mouth. Next the cutie started rubbing my back. She put her finger right between my booty crack. So I grabbed her wrist quick and said hold up slut. Ain't nobody sticking nothing in my butt."

Kid Rock or Bad Bunny?

"Young Ladies, young ladies / I like them underage you see / Some call it statutory / I say it's mandatory."

Kid Rock or Bad Bunny?

"I pull them young, start bleeping with their virgin minds. I don't give a bleep and I'll bleep you blind bitch. "

Kid Rock or Bad Bunny?

"If you want to have fun with charm and delight you just have to live a summer in New York, New York."
Watch the super bowl when there's Olympics to watch?  Not a chance.

To be honest, I've never seen a SB (or any NFL game in its entirety for that matter) in my whole life.  Too boring!

I'll take a wild guess and say Kid Rock (who is neither kid nor rock) wrote those lyrics.

Move along, nothing happened in 1989 too, either.
Fixed it.

BTW, what are you doing about it?

Based on your original post, you seem to be blaming people in this country for the problems in China.  Yet here you are.  How are you leading by example? Bitching on this forum doesn't count.

Everyone paying attention to world events knows this but thank you for your unique insight.

Back to your original post - just empty complaining?

BTW, on another note, 2 Thursdays ago, I liquidated the last of my silver bullion at $106.85 per ounce.  So glad I waited, when i purchased it at about $13 per ounce!  smile

In case the group here didn't notice, the DJIA hit 50,000 recently.  So much for the laugh out loud predictions of Rod Kaufman.  wink
On the off chance that you're telling the truth for once, I have to wonder if you spent your $93.85 windfall all in one place. LOL

The Worsening Trump Economy

"Manufacturing employment rebounded slightly, but has lost more than 80,000 jobs since Trump returned to the White House."

"But the largest increase in payrolls in 13 months reported by the Labor Department on Wednesday likely exaggerates the labor market's health, as revisions showed the economy added only 181,000 jobs in 2025 instead of the previously estimated 584,000. That is a fraction of the 1.459 million jobs added in 2024, the final full year of former President Joe Biden's term."

"The only jobs being filled in January are in health care and social assistance, along with some nonresidential specialty trade contractors probably related to AI facilities, all of which do not guarantee the economy's future success," said Christopher Rupkey, chief economist at FWDBONDS. "If you are looking for a job ... you are unlikely to find anything to apply for in today's report."

Only a devout Kool-Aid guzzler would buy into this one: "170,000 new private sector jobs created, while eliminating 40,000 non productive gov't positions."

Many of those so-called non-productive gov positions were eliminated through early retirement offers, which, in our industry countless gov personnel gladly accepted.  Guess where those people are now? Working for the contractors! They are now collecting their pensions (paid for by the gov) and working full time for the gov contractors (again, paid for by the gov) often in the same dept they were working before. So now these folks are costing the taxpayers twice what they were before this idiotic administration's attempt at efficiency.  The funny thing is, we all saw it coming.

Bill is hard to decipher, but at least he's having a good time.
I'm starting to think he just enjoys playing the role of International Man of Mystery. Who knows. May the force be with him.
