Panty dropper

 

Need some content ya'll. I remember this reaction from a while back, but I don't think I embedded it here. The "panty-dropper" reaction was a winner. It cuts right to the point, you might say.

No Country for Old Men

8/15/25:

It was on Prime, I noticed, so I watched it again. This might be the second or third time that I've seen it. As far as I can recollect, I never reviewed it. Perhaps this shouldn't be a review either.

The movie has a few themes, among which seems to be the degradation of society. It was made in 2007-ish, so it isn't what you'd call an old movie, but not new either. The setting is in 1980, so the setting may be seen as a good deal into the past. So whatever is being said about 1980, it is even more so today.

It has been included in the National Film Registry as culturally significant. That is unfortunate. For being included thusly, it doesn't say much for our culture.

One thing I wanted to write about it... Some folks write this as a hero versus villain story. In my opinion, there IS no hero in this film. There is no redemption of any kind. No defense of values or beliefs. In that sense, I'd say that there is no nobility to it at all. It is very degrading on many levels.

If the character who finds drug money and gets tracked by a psychopath is a hero, then perhaps it may show some sort of degradation in the society that could see his behavior as heroic. The hero gets himself and a number of other people killed. He wants to get rich by stealing another crook's money. He is a crook himself. Not a hero. That is the thing I wanted to say.

1/11/24: Update to 9/30/23 post:

One more thought that I had about this post, which was made just a week before the Hamas massacre in Israel on Oct 7th 2023. It was that the country I'm living in could become unlivable, and it was because of things like this character portrayed in that movie.

But I had no idea it would play out the way it did. I don't own a crystal ball. But you can see the general drift of events. So the massacre was all but inevitable. More events like it are all but inevitable too, unless something changes.

I still haven't seen the movie. Just enough to determine the character being portrayed. An evil character. You have to ask, why would the POTUS make the same kind of characters into a protected class? He has, you know.

end update: The original post is directly below:



This movie came up in conversation recently. I was thinking about it in terms of what the world is coming to. But there are those who think differently from that. I'd say that one reaction (on Youtube) is just another possible reaction of many possible reactions to what this movie is about. By the way, I have not seen the movie.

Don't bet on the "fix" to fix anything

 

Government cannot fix a bowl of soup. Maybe they can "fix" an election. Know what I mean, Vern?

The planners and schemers will get their wishes, though. The dreaded "Pierce Elevated" will become history. Long live Pierce Elevated! These clowns will put in sunken roads that will flood in Houston's flood prone frequent floods. Don't like my alliteration? Your refund check is in the mail.

MAGA is succeeding for now

 

Trump’s Counterrevolution Is Succeeding Beyond Expectations https://t.co/lxf0CPVNUE -- Trump is doing a great job. His chief problem isn't the Democrats, though. The Dems are obviously crazy, but the fakes on the GOP side are the most troublesome. John Cornyn, for example.

The Almighty Grok sez it's real, they really did that. It's called Crime Prevention tactic. Well, if so, it isn't working too well.

Amish Grocery Store?

 

I'm a little confused here. The Amish wouldn't be in the grocery business, now would they? They'd have to modernize a bit in order to do that. The Amish wouldn't have electricity, for example. You need that if you're going to sell perishables.

What does the almighty Grok say to this??? A deep dive is uncertain. What happens on the battlefield may be the deciding factor.

Ghetto-girl from the hood? Here's the real story...

 

Jasmine Crokett is a fake, says this exposé.

Jasmine Crockett built her entire political brand on being a “Ghetto Girl from the Hood”

But is that true? No. It’s a big lie.

I travelled to Jasmine Crockett’s actual hometown to investigate. She grew up waaaay better than you or I did.

Don't let them cause you to check your brain in at the door

 

This message is a break from the usual sarcasm, so listen up carefully! Actually, you should always believe everything I say.

P.S.

Are liberals really stupid? That's because they sure seem to act that way. At least, they say the most amazing things (particularly the one who said DC is safe, but wants to remain anonymous, for personal safety reasons). Art Linkletter once said that about kids--that they said the most amazing things. Who's Art Linkletter? Look it up.

Can the damage ever be undone?

But, but, but! What does the mighty Grok think? Grok doesn't like my sarcasm. Ha, ha!

Well, here's a curveball for ya, X!

 

P.S.

I took a deeper dive with the Grok AI thing on X, and it basically tried to minimize it. Also, to make ME a part of the story. Ha, ha. How can I be a part of the story if I have only a small audience and following?

Methinks AI isn't what it's cracked up to be, but that's just me minimizing Grok. And so it goes...

When did I see this? Can't remember when, but I do remember seeing some of this on TeeVee. The story doesn't stop here. Now they get to study what exactly that they've found.

Former NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly Warns About Mamdani as NYC Mayor

The Conservative Treehouse

Quote:

Mamdani is supported by both the professional political left and the professional political right.

Comment:

Anybody who supports this guy should have their heads examined. Any person in a responsible position should be disqualified from such positions. If this assertion of Sundance's is correct, we need a major re-work of our political parties. I'm not exagerrating. This is NOT something to be entertained.

The public should know better. Not all of this can be blamed upon leadership. It is up to YOU to be informed. Socialists are always BAD NEWS. No exceptions.

The media is lying? I'm shocked

 

There's a lesson in this somewhere, just in case someone really wants to be informed.
