Is it still fantasy when Brett Kavanaugh refuses to be cleared in an investigation and expose the claims as fantasy?

...I think that it's more likely that it refers to something more sinister than the quarters drinking game with three cups.

3 is an awfully awkward number for many group activities.

aka The Eiffel Tower.

The girl stands between two men who hold hands above her head and have intercourse with her simultaneously.

It's not a drinking game, and Brett knows it.

It will mean that even though that's not what it is in "social media."

That's one thing I really hate about Google search results, once a new media thing happens it makes it hard to find older articles with similar search terms.

Looked on Google Scholar, Google Books, Google Newspaper (old news paper search) and Archive.org to see its usage in the past.

99% of them are results to the Bermuda Triangle. The other 1% is terrorism.

Welcome to DU. Sorry this site tends to rank high on Google search results. We're a talkative bunch!

He's not much of a political guy - but he seemed to know what it was...

"A quarters game..."

That doesn't mean it has other meanings!

With access to a House IP. I imagine that is a large number of interns and staffers.

Both written in his book and he wrote that in the other boy’s yearbook
Maybe in the first grade.

Lying about the meaning of a word.

Only mention of it outside of the Bermuda triangle was to reflect a "threesome."

It’s that sort of drinking game. You know, harmless fun.

36. The lies are reflective of Kavanaugh's character. It's who he is.
Fri Sep 28, 2018, 07:28 AM
Sep 2018

People tell us who they are if we listen. With his testimony and his judicial opinions and his behavior working for Ken Starr, Kavanaugh has told the American people all about himself.

He's a cruel alcoholic with a bad temper who thinks he's superior to other people, especially women. He has no empathy and believes that power is everything. He lies reflexively. When confronted with his bad behavior, he melts down, alternating between sniveling self-pity and loud bluster.

He's obviously a deeply insecure individual who comforts himself by bullying others.

Kabanaugh's personality is a lot like Trump's.
