Andrew Scheer awards carton of chocolate milk medal of bravery for saving son’s life -- (link) - Beaker Jul 18, 14:00 10
- I know what he was trying to say - and wasn't inherently wrong - but sounded so dumb. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jul 18, 14:01 9
  - Can you explain it to me because the article doesn't say why he thinks it saved his son's life. -- nm - Krusty Jul 18, 14:22 3
    - His son was an extreme picky eater and wasn't getting enough calicum and nutrients until they gave him chocolate milk. - Name Withheld By Request Jul 18, 14:28 2
      - if anything was ideologically driven it was the original food guide. - Reagen Jul 18, 14:45
      - Thanks! -- nm - Krusty Jul 18, 14:41
  - he would say anything to any group if he thought it would get him an extra vote -- nm - Beaker Jul 18, 14:02 4
    - I don't think that's fair, but I also don't think I could change your mind on that. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jul 18, 14:20 3
      - Well, I mean, he *is* a politician. Haven't people said the same thing of JT (apology tour) or J. Singh (???)? -- nm - Beryllium Jul 18, 14:46
      - I don't think it's fair either, but I did find this tweet pretty funny -- (link) - Roger More Jul 18, 14:34 1

Toyota is deploying electric shuttles for the Tokyo Olympics. One driver and five passengers? Seems incredibly inefficient. -- (link) - Mop Jul 18, 13:37 2
- "There's a good reason why. Toyota intends it to be a "last mile" solution for staff and athletes, as well as visitors with accessibility needs" - JD Jul 18, 13:56 1
  - We invented... the electric golf cart! -- nm - Mop Jul 18, 14:40
Trollhunters:Tales of Arcadia. Surprisingly good A- for the whole series. Final episode incredible - Amoxy Jul 18, 13:36
Apparently someone wrote a rant about hating American Airlines that went viral. The person isn't faultless but it remind me just how arcane airline - ty97 Jul 18, 13:34 11
- Whenever I fly, I'm appalled by the process. It's equal parts draconian, inefficient, and elitist. -- nm - David Jul 18, 13:45 4
  - The Green New Deal would phase out air travel in favor of HSR domestically. Wondering, do we support the Green New Deal? - con_carne Jul 18, 14:50 1
    - There's very little reason to have short haul flights in the US (<1.5 hr). - Reagen Jul 18, 14:52
  - So this interested me enough to go find the source material. Draconian, inefficient, elitist for flying in general is accurate. AA not specific - JD Jul 18, 14:18 1
    - I didn’t like that writer’s voice at first, but after I understood what they were doing, I ended up loving it. -- nm - Qale Jul 18, 14:47
- AA sucks and I hope they choke on it. I wouldn't know but aren't International Airlines doing things so much better? -- nm - Pippy - full time Jokester Jul 18, 13:36 5
  - AA operationally is the pits currently but the policies this person ran into are basically common with all US airlines - ty97 Jul 18, 13:56 2
    - Doesn't that policy go back to when R/T tickets substantially cheaper that a one-way and people would just fly the one leg? -- nm - Meg Jul 18, 14:28
    - good to know -- nm - Pippy - full time Jokester Jul 18, 14:23
  - We don't have a national flag carrier (PanAm) I'm sure most nations subsidize theirs -- nm - zeitgeist Jul 18, 13:41

RC, please go here as soon as possible. you will not be upset. you will be thrilled one of the biggest lightsaber manufacturers is in Portland -- (link) - peglegpete Jul 18, 13:15 6
- Oh hell yes. I'll head there this weekend. I'm going trap shooting in Oregon City anyway, so this will make a nice stop, too! -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jul 18, 13:55 3
  - almost every saber is modular and the bodies, pummels and emitters [top part] are interchangeable. I bought 1 saber and several pummels & emitters -- nm - peglegpete Jul 18, 14:05 2
    - Ultrasaber has several I bought. azure mantis -- (pic) - peglegpete Jul 18, 14:07 [Attachment] 1

Speaking of wrestling -- pay attention, Dollface -- CM Punk to headline Starrcast 3 with 90-minute interview. -- nm - David Jul 18, 12:52 4
- Good lord it’s the greatest Starcast ever. - Dark Callisto Jul 18, 13:18
- That is about 90 minutes longer than I’d like to hear from him. -- nm - Qale Jul 18, 13:15

  - Catch anything? -- nm - Super Daddy Princess Jul 18, 14:14
- do any of the salmon ever actually make it over the falls? -- nm - decline Jul 18, 12:58 2
  - Some of those aren't salmon, they're controllers being thrown in frustration. -- nm - Max Jul 18, 13:22
  - I think they'd have to. Or they'd die out. -- nm - mara Jul 18, 13:01
- I would like some "Whee!" sound effects for the salmon. - Max Jul 18, 12:56
- you have no idea how happy I am to have this be the first thing I saw when I logged onto the board. -- nm* - amanda Jul 18, 12:52

The entire People's Party of Canada board in a Winnipeg riding has resigned in disgust -- (link) - Beaker Jul 18, 12:44 1

Just took a substantial load of old appliances and electronics to Goodwill. Garage doesn't really look any different :/ - Meg Jul 18, 12:41 2

- I love doing purges like this :) -- nm - decline Jul 18, 12:43
Fox/WWE: Talks have started to bring NXT to Fox. -- nm - Remlik Jul 18, 12:40 9
- Is Fox just giving up prime time broadcasting? - Will Hunting Jul 18, 12:47 7
  - It's truly lousy media reporting. They -could- get on FS1 if some things happen. Fox was never in the conversation. - David Jul 18, 12:49 6
    - Fox just had the affliate meeting...51 episodes to air on Fox... - Remlik Jul 18, 13:12 5
      - Yes, Pete. I know. The affiliate meeting addressed it in detail because everyone is so worried about the WWE's atrocious ratings. - David Jul 18, 13:27 4
        
        Does the deal explicitly preclude cancellation? - the wrong element, bad guy Jul 18, 13:37 3
        
        It's a five-year deal that required a lot of constraints on Fox's part. They had Disney money they were splashing around at the time. - David Jul 18, 13:43 2
        
        So, is someone at Fox or someone at Disney an idiot? - the wrong element, bad guy Jul 18, 13:49 1
        
        Clarifying: this is 100% Fox. - David Jul 18, 13:53
- “You can keep Smackdown, we’ll take the good wrestling show.” — FOX, probably -- nm - Qale Jul 18, 12:44
Top gun: Maverick trailer -- (link) - decline Jul 18, 12:39 [youtube] 27
- The flying shots are fantastic. I have a really hard time watching Tom Cruise movies now, but I might force myself to this one. -- nm - pmb Jul 18, 14:54
- I don't even like Top Gun and I'm in 100% for this. -- nm - MDH Jul 18, 13:20
- This both the greatest and worst post ever made on ST. -- nm - Mop Jul 18, 13:17 1
  - delcine is nothing if not extreme. -- nm - Spawn Jul 18, 13:18

- Well hell, I hate when I want to see a Tom Cruise movie. -- nm - Spawn Jul 18, 13:02 5
  - I know what you mean, but : Oblivion, Edge of Tomorrow, M:I - which keep getting better -- nm - mud Jul 18, 13:08 4
    - Over the weekend SyFy (I think it was) played Edge and then Oblivion back-to-back. I ended up watching both. Had not revisited them. - Spawn Jul 18, 13:12 2
      - I guess if there was ever a post that it would be appropriate for a double post...... -- nm - JD Jul 18, 13:15 1
        
        heh. Hey bery, on that one I clicked post and nothing happened. Think I clicked it twice more and did not get a warning. -- nm - Spawn Jul 18, 13:17
    - Over the weekend SyFy (I think it was) played Edge and then Oblivion back-to-back. I ended up watching both. Had not revisited them. - Spawn Jul 18, 13:12

  - OT IX (Operating Thetan Level 9): Mastery of All Machines -- nm - Spawn Jul 18, 13:05

- Tom Cruise personally shot down multiple jets to train for this movie. -- nm - Max Jul 18, 12:43 1

- (I hope they end up fighting an alien invasion) -- nm* - decline Jul 18, 12:42
- the fighter jet scenes are glorious -- nm - Beaker Jul 18, 12:42 5
  - Make no mistake, that's Tom Cruise in the cockpit in all those scenes. The man is a machine. -- nm - Mop Jul 18, 13:08
  - Yeah, but... - JaxSean Jul 18, 12:51 2
    - it sort of looks like a rehash of the 1st one. - Pippy - full time Jokester Jul 18, 12:55 1
      - I'm glad to see a reasonably good check-in (spoils) - Will Hunting Jul 18, 13:13

Oh, look at that, another storm rolling through. How totally unexpected. - kelly Jul 18, 12:27
