It's exhausting but if you examine what he says you'll find there is some sense to his ramblings. It's how he blurts them without any context that gives away his dementia

This had nothing to do with anybody reserving seats. This rally was in Detroit. His supporters are generally not the type that will venture into an urban area braving big city traffic and pay $20 at a parking garage. There's a reason he appears most often at county fairgrounds. His supporters are more the type to leave early to beat the traffic

The US has nothing to gain by attacking Iran. The younger generation of Iran want change and the older generation that supported the Islamic Revolution are dying off. Attacking them would only consolidate support behind the government

Haha my city had a Dick's Last Resort, it was fun! My favorite story about that place is when my boss and his wife (unknowingly) went there with another couple. They were VERY proper Brits (in the US) in their mid 70's. The husband of the other couple wanted to know if there were seeds on the sandwich bun . The waitress asked if he was a some kind of F●●●ing expert. The guy goes on to explain he has diverticulitis without batting an eye

I'll never forget my dad bought a used Renault Alliance because he saw an old Consumer Reports magazine that had it as "car of the year". What he didn't see was the article where they retracted the title. It was a money pit

Intent is awesome if you like Slayer

My childhood fear was getting the vaccine shot for the swine flu which was a big issue in the mid 70's. My 5th grade class received new text books and there was a photo of a kid getting the vaccine shot. Instead of a needle it was delivered by a big device that looked like an uzi machine gun and I was terrified of it. Time passed and I never got the shot. That's when I learned how the news works.

My girlfriend gave me a hard time about it. I told her I was pro-choice

I used to listen to some metal (Motorhead, Slayer, Metallica) when I was younger but my tastes have mellowed out. When DRI played here on their 40th anniversary tour here a couple of years ago, I was blown away by the opening act touring with them. Intent is a boring name IMO that doesn't do them justice. They're on Bandcamp. Any Slayer fan should check them out

Yeah I'm almost 60 and it was similar back during the cold War. There was no online echo chamber to amplify it back then though

True but we can't be sure. Best not to let your guard down

They never caught the killer, they're still on the loose! Let that sink in
