since afternoon.
A shout out to all the hilarious threads and posts about the lake rehearsal for the sinking of the Con's ship of state. Can't remember the last time we had such a good time

(31,017 posts)Having worked and played on a few boats myself, gotta admit I got a good laugh out of it. It is a metaphor for the incompetence. You cant keep a boat afloat on pure bullshit.

Lightning or maybe an extremely localized tornado or sinkhole. Actually, a sinkhole opening up and dragging them all off to Hell would be very appropriate

(1,725 posts)were the nutcases who actually thought that it was a real Antifa attack on the boats. Did you see those? I mean, how... don't even know what to say to that. The man running for congress in FL who claimed to be the Vice Admiral of the Antifa Navy - - actually got a semi-threatening reply, among other more clueless ones.

(111,254 posts)There are going to be charges filed and lawsuits enjoined, from what I understand about what happened.
Still, it's a hell of a lot easier to be swamped in a lake than it is in the ocean.
I just hope those drunk shitbags lose those big boats they were roaring down the lake at full speed in.
(I had an overdose of drunk, rich shitbags in oversized stinkpot yachts when I lived in Mass.)
