Did anyone archive AI Coffee with AI Scott Adams?

The people at Scott Adams School (the successor to Scott's channel) got it taken down in a blunder of hilarious proportions. They have also disabled comments as of yesterday.

Much like IT, the jeets have completely taken over the medical field as well. which also includes the Pharmacy. It's not just CVS either, its ALL drug stores, even the local no-named ones.

So essentially every time you're sick, you're rolling the dice on whether or not you wind up getting cured or more sick because the jeets don't give enough of a shit or have any fucking clue what they are doing. Even the ones that sound smart are just retards acting and trying to "fit in" with everyone else.

I’m just grateful to work in a hospital pharamacy where there isn’t a single jeet/jeeta.

We did however have a pharmacy student jeeta last year. Was constantly bitching about how her parents want her/forcing her to be in the medical field.

Chinese use English names because Chinese names are hard for English speakers to say. The practice started in Hong Kong because Britain controlled it and business was done in English. Japanese people usually don’t have English names because Japanese is easy to pronounce. It’s not really about assimilation. It’s pragmatic.

Having been to China, I ran into more people with names like Li Lu than those with "complicated" names like Xiaofeng Zhoujie.

Having to tell your colleagues that you're waiting for a response from Rashinvja Pootarputyah is however not easy.

I strongly suspect it'll be this
it's a lot harder to run them over with tanks when the tanks are an ocean away

It's been a mixture of both so far, depending on how much the army gets bribed. Of course, the best thing China can do to secure investments is to build military bases along with the other infrastructure.

Quick question: Why are there so many "conservatives" planning to watch the Superbowl? I've had the misfortune of being in the room when my folks watching Fox News and so many self-professed "culturally conservative" personalities are either planning to watch, have tickets themselves, or are planning to take their children. Discounting the 15+ years of anti-American, anti-Christian, and anti-White behavior from the NFL, this is all done in full knowledge that the half time show is being performed by a gay Puerto Rican anti ICE rapper who plans to perform entirely in Spanish, wear a dress, and kiss a man on stage.

Why is there no movement for a boycott? Is nothing worth missing out on a minute of precious niggerball?

Because I like football.

Shamwow guy, Vince Offer(Offer Vince Shlomi) still wants you to vote for him for Texas' 31st congressional seat. This is like the fifth video he's made this week.

Not loving Vince’s nuts will be punishable by death!

People watch the Superbowl for three reasons :

1) They love football that much
2) Team loyalty
3) The commercials

4) It's the only show about nigger ass that isn't explicitly gay (but this year it is).

Bigger booms are not useful anymore. In the old days, we deployed weapons with yields in the multi megaton range because our missiles and bombs could not be guaranteed to be a direct hit. on a hard target, even a miss of a few hundred yards can make the difference between a kill or survival. so, to make up the difference, yields increased. with modern fusing a warhead can be delivered through the front door of Xi's palace.

The highest yield warhead in the enduring stockpile is the B83 at 1.2 megatons, but it is slated to be retired and replaced with the B61-13. The highest yield deployed warhead is the navy's W88 aboard the Trident SLBM at a max yield of 455 kilotons. The B61-13 has a yield up to 340 kilotons. This bomb is carried by fighter-bombers and the B-2/B-21. The Minuteman ICBM has a yield of only 170 kilotons.

After a certain point, the blast just vents out into space and just wastes material.

But big boom make my peepee tingle

Why do people waste their time watching sportsball when they could engage in intellectual activities such as gooning

The older I get the more I realize how much of this effect permeates all of Asian culture. Appearances are extremely important and should ALWAYS take priority over functionality. Their martial arts, politics, warfare, internet trolling, movies, tech, cars, women, families, women, buildings, it's all a massive show trying to win people's approval. Izzat is not exclusive to India.

It worked on me when I was younger but as you get older it's impossible not to notice.

Izzat is just the Indian cultural variant of face/ mianzi 面子.

The issue is that due to Jeets being a literal slave race that deified their conquerors and kept the caste system they created in place. Face in most other Asian cultures is kind of collective, but due to the caste system Indians are retarded.

Also @Null the reason why Indians worship cows and are obsessed with chariots are due to the Aryans. Aryans were pastoralists (cow herders) who came with chariots to enslave the natives to the sub-continent. The Aryans were from what I remember basically from the Caspian Steppe and the genetic markers we have they are basically Europeans/ Afghans (before Arab invasion, Pashtun are pretty Huwhite. Alexander didn’t fall for a Jeet).

They literally got enslaved, got beaten if they touched any of the Aryan Steppe Chad cows (their word for war I believe originates for looking for cow), had their family destroyed for harming one, village razed for killing one, and this got beaten into their genetics after millennia.

Nixon and Kissinger were basically right that they are a race of ass kissers.

Climate change = climate emergency. Literally a call to action. First was global warming but global temps are always in flux so they went with climate change. They've been warning about it for years but since we're now in 2020+ and all the doom and gloom of an Inconvenient Truth hasn't happened they've had to switch gears again to make it more urgent, "THIS time in the next (nebulous time frame) if we don't change course (with progressive policy that mysteriously omits any country that isnt the US or Europe) then the Earth will become uninhabitable!"
I haven't heard "Global Majority" being used, but that just is stupid on multiple levels.

Some warmunists are pushing 2100 as the new climate doomsday, ostensibly to preempt anyone in living memory from calling out how many times their bullshit predictions were wrong.

Q: Pope Leo cited Matthew 25:35 to critique Donald Trump's mass deportation agenda. How would you respond to Pope Leo in scripture?

HOUSE SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON: Sovereign borders are biblical and right and just. It's not because we hate the people on the outside. It's because we love the people on the inside.

You seriously need help dude.

No, it's us who need help, don't you get it? Fattysnacks is an opposite day oracle. The day he stops dooming is the day we all die, for whatever it is he divines the exact reverse opposite occurs.

I pay homage, O Oracle.

Oda Nobunaga bringing a bunch of peasants with guns to what the Takeda thought was going to be a grorious cavalry fight was probably a big surprise for this reason. That nigga was considered a bit insane by his contemporaries and he showed up to that battle with the intent to win, not to let his samurai have their fun flanking and trying to take heads from the enemy leadership.

A bunch of men holding each other and fondling balls for a couple hours is incredible gay.

Another acceptable answer would be "Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's."

Chat is this a sign of a healthy economy?

How was the US economy is the early 80s and the late 2000s?

This is that they mean when they say "its off the charts"

btw gold mirrors this just different scale
Wyświetl załącznik 8522127

the 80s spike was pure market manipulation. The hunt brothers spent billions cornering the silver market. they eventually went to jail for it.

in 2011 the price rose due to speculation and uncertainty in the economy. The price crashed back down to norms when exchanges increased reqs which made speculators start to sell their positions. also, when metals prices skyrocket demand decreases because industrial buyers become thrifty. lingering uncertainty from 2008 started to dissipate as well. all these reasons led to a large sell off.

The prices you see for gold/silver on the stock markets are entirely driven by industry and price speculators. it is not driven by the common man building up his stack because we buy by the ounce or fraction of the ounce. Speculators and industrial use buys by the pound and ton.

Current prices will fall back down to somewhere between 30-45 dollars IMO once this shakes out. metal prices can't increase much at all before buying collapses.
