Both movies suffer from making societal statements, Crash about race and Brokeback Mountain about acceptance of homosexuality.

Both movies were nominated so we could pat ourselves on the back. Neither movie was particularly good.

And by city. Ya, there are some cities where it’s over 10. I’m just saying that’s not nearly the average.

Not disputing most of you point, but the sales tax in California does not average 10%. I live here, and don’t think I’ve ever paid more that 9. Most of the time, it’s lower than 8.

Sorta like how the Ford Mustang isn’t named for the horse, it’s named for the P-51 Mustang airplane (which in turn is named for the horse.)

Each genders experiences on dating sites suggest otherwise.

I know it’s a joke, but I feel like to be fair to both genders, each man here should arrows pointing to every woman.

Extremely reasonable concerns, I agree. I wish Biden would have passed the baton early on like he said he was going to. I honestly think that cost the Democrats the election.

But given the choice between a declining Biden surrounded by competent people or Trump surrounded by sycophants, I would choose the former.

See above reply. I should not have, mistakenly, implied democrats earnestly concerned about Bidens age are silent now. My point was to illustrate Republican hypocrisy.

I perhaps should have clarified that I meant Republicans who said they opposed Biden because of his age, who are suddenly okay with someone in his 80s running.

I certainly did not mean Democrats earnestly voicing concern of Bidens age.

Not surprisingly, the constitutionalists and “Biden is too old” ~~crowd~~ Republicans are silent.
