My favorite excuse was that the Conspiracy was so insidious that they'd infiltrated Big Calendar sometime in the 1930s when no one was paying attention, and we had no idea when 1998 was really gonna be.

As a SubGenius, we were promised by our 'prophet' J.R. "Bob" Dobbs that the apocalypse in our favour was to be July 5, 1998. When it didn't happen, we had incredible excuses, although we did crucify "Bob", too. Fucker deserved it. If only he'd STAY dead....

We get to make Brad Marchand cry again this year!

What about Stolly being TEN AND OH in his last ten games? Why does his wandering around not terrify me like, say... when Freddy would get lost behind his net?

Worse, his terrible motivations are barely concealed but he still thinks he's smarter than everyone else and is pulling the wool over all our eyes rather than just those of his bleating sheep base.

I personally doubt he qualifies. His wife's family. His crypto holdings. What HIS part of the quid pro quo with Modi for the help getting him into Stornoway. Too many skeletons. That's why he relays on his simplistic excuse, which of course, his simpleton base buys wholesale .

I used "last decade" as the impetus of my debate drinking game, and now, half a bottle of Glen Breton whisky later.... and I've still gotta walk the doggos.

Poilievre can get his clearance, to clear up the questions about his eligibility, and then not participate in the briefings and not be muzzled. It's not rocket surgery, for fuck's sake.
