3/7 appointed by Democrats.
They’ll stall until they can get a “Stop Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton from taking over your healthcare” referendum on the 2022 midterms.
[ ] Yes I want the government to make life or death decisions for me and my family
[ ] No I want to keep my doctor please
SCOTUS ultimately allows the wording to proceed.

Seems like they’re vacillating. They can’t do that very long.

I mean does the cocksucker mention TN fought for the south while KY fought for the north despite having slavery legal? No of course not. Just rile the rubes up.
Whatever happens, they’re oppressed and they DEMAND to speak to the manager!
Dude should stick to drawing maps.

his actual argument is that if we “cancel” a slave trader, confederate general, and kkk grand wizard, who has been dead for 150 years, then we are not going to stop until we also cancel a bunch of heroes? 
So uh, I just realized why a friend of mine named his dog Forrest instead of Forest and let me say that probably ends the friendship for me. He was kind of right leaning but always tried to pretend to be the reasonable type I guess. I always wondered why it was Forrest and not Forest.
Fuck this hellhole that I live in tbh.
Not a Ted Forrest fan?

Both he and his wife are from Arkansas. Not much of a poker enthusiast lol.
Yeah that’s what I assumed
Would never have even asked and just thought that’s what it was 90%+
Forrest Gump was named after NB Forrest.
They are proud Southerners. I can put 2+2 together. If this was just some random person I could maybe give them the benefit of the doubt it was from the movie but I think not in this case.
Well I wouldn’t end a friendship over just hearing a dog’s name is Forrest unless he’s like “Yea his name is Forrest, named after my favorite and coolest Southerner who also did absolutely nothing wrong”. People name dogs after a lot of things and for various reasons

What if I told you the relationship was already on the ropes due to his reaction to the George Floyd protests? I haven’t hardly talked to him since anyways since. I mean maybe it is innocent but I would guess probably not based on that.
Seems reasonable, but “pet’s name is Forrest” just seems like a really weird last straw.
Obviously if he says that “yeah, he’s named after Nathan Bedford Forrest”, then of course that’s a friendship to dump.
But if it’s just because he likes the movie, that doesn’t seem weird. I had completely forgotten that Gump’s first name comes from NBF until you said it.

First R rated movie I ever saw at 14 or 15. My older brother took me while home on college break.
I used to be able to quote it.
“Get away from those cans”
“I bet you more people see that than the phone book”
“Johnson, Navin R, sounds like your typical bastard”
“I was born a poor black child”
“I will be making money soon. Marie promised me a blow job”
Ok maybe I still can (though I’m sure my quote accuracy is word for word poor).

I still quote it in everyday life, “Oh, that’s where that goes.”, “My special purpose.”, probably others.
Edit: Yup, there’s more, “I just need this one thing. And this thermos.”. I must be irritating to live with. My wife needs an award.

My wife tells me that every day. Then I remind her she picked me.
