It's not normal. He's ignoring legal procedure. It's not his kingly decision to make as Lord of America. If he went through proper channels, then fine, I guess. Like I said, it's not in the top 50 bad things he's done. I know MAGa supports it because it triggerz teh libz, but c'mon.

And all of them went through traditional, legal channels to do so.
(In the case of Truman, he had no choice - the interior support beams were rotted and the entire upper floor was threatening to collapse, for crying out loud!)
NOTHING about this administration is normal.  NOTHING!

Bad Movies / Re: RECENT VIEWINGS (Bad Movie...

Last post by Rev. Powell - Today at 08:23:05 PM

Matt Groening, creator of "The Simpsons", used to do a weekly comic strip for years in the 80s and 90s called "Life In Hell". In one fondly remembered strip from my childhood he made this observation:

The French are funny. Sex is funny. Comedies are funny. Yet why are there no funny French sex comedies?    

I agree with him on those first three counts for sure, and still often contemplate the last claim when watching French cinema. I am sure one could debate this premise if one wanted to. But I often wonder what movies Groening was thinking of when he wrote this. Maybe one where the lead falls out of a window at the end of the movie?       "Funny" is all subjective, of course!

I fondly remember Life in Hell, I may even have the book collections around here somewhere. I think there is a problem with that quote, though. The French aren't funny (at least not on purpose).

Doesn't really matter if he's paying for it, it's not his property. You can't knock out a wall in an apartment you're renting just because you pay for it yourself.

Now, he would probably just twist arms and fire people who didn't approve his plans if he submitted them through the proper legal channels, so he can argue he's just cutting corners, and he'd get to do it anyway even if he followed proper procedures.

Anyway, among all the bad things he's done, this isn't even in the top 50.

I dunno what movie this is... but I can relate!  Well, except for the part about eventually becoming handsome.
