From the article:

Several were rejected for conveying “a message associated to the characteristics of any person or group of people.”

Examples of these include:

AXE/ELON
BISXUAL/
TRMP/BAD
LIBS/YUK
SOCALHO/
TESLUUT/

(Note: A / represents a half space, according to the DMV.)

Some were rejected for conveying that the vehicle belongs to law enforcement, the DMV said. Examples include:

LAPD*K9/
/CA/ICE/
*CSI*CA/
BB*SWAT/
ARTCL86/
911NRSK/
/*LADP*/

(Note: An * represents a full space, according to the DMV.)

The four iterations of “hawk tuah” — and several other custom plates — were rejected for conveying a “sexual or scatological meaning.”

Examples include:

HAWK2UH/
HOCTUAH/
HAWK2UH/
HAWKTAA/

Many were rejected for being too similar to an existing license plate. Examples include:

QUE33NB/
ST4RBO7/
WRM/HOL3
XL3GACY/
XPR1NCE/
XSM1LEY/
XW1TCHX/
Y11KES$/
Y3S*CHF/
Y3S/PAPI
YA/MON3Y

Whataboutism at its finest.

Whatever. Lock all the predators away.

Pretty sure it’s already here. That’s usually how these things work. Based on sewage samples, COVID-19 got here back in September 2019 - several months before any officials wanted to admit.

There’s currently a really nasty cold racing through schools on the West Coast. I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s it.

Literally went missing. As opposed to his followers. Their brains went figuratively missing when they started following him and his modern acolytes.

Not to mention the fact that the ultra rich and powerful seem to get away scott free with their crimes. While the serial killers in these documentaries were brought to at least some form of justice.

Thanksgiving is going to be interesting in that household this year.

Your 15 minutes of game is over, Kim Davies. Stop trying to milk it. Go back under your bridge, you miserable little troll.

The ultra wealthy already got their ‘tariff dividend’, in the form of not tax breaks and a discrete heads-up of when to play the market to real maybe amounts of extra wealth.

As for the rest, this offer is just more bullshit. If it does surface (which is very unlikely) there will be some strings attached. And it will in no way fully compensate most people for the turmoil caused by these tariffs.

I wouldn’t recommend this. It wrecks the enamel and causes a lot of tiny pock marks that just accumulate more grime later on.

Haha, sounds about right. We’re the forgotten generation. But that’s okay.

He clearly lives in a completely different reality to me and millions of other people.

There was a clip from the other day where a reporter asked him about a person they had interviewed who stated that grocery prices have gone way up.

His response? “She’s wrong!”

Putting aside the fact that he was clearly and profoundly incorrect, the unbridled dismissiveness of his response is crazy.

So the woman who was at the grocery store buying groceries just like she is every week, and noticing prices going up again (not to mention shrinkification), is wrong. And you, Donald, who has no fucking clue how much any groceries are, are right?

Give me a break!

Who am I kidding. They have no idea what unit testing is.

Way to ignore the end of my comment.

After an agent hit the child in the face with a ball, the youth was driven away from the scene by Border Patrol. The child was later reunited with its mother in the afternoon.

I’m going to assume the ball to the face was accidental (though given some of the heinous stuff ICE has done that’s a big assumption). And ICE reunited the child and mother eventually. But still… What the fuck is wing wrong with these people?!

Every accusation is a confession.

Pretty well, all things considered. I played off and on for about 15 years (more on than off). Got into an awesome family-friendly guild and made some very good friends. I still regularly chat with and occasionally play other games with some of them.

I became the leader of that guild eventually, but by then it was well into a slow death spiral. It was sad to see everything slowly fall apart and there being nothing anyone could do to resurrect it. That was kind of a painful life lesson.

But I also have some very fond memories playing with both my wife and my son, and with those friends.

Maybe I was to much of a ‘filthy casual’ to get drawn too deeply into it (I only casually raided sporadically). But even still, it did hook me in for a while. And even now it’s left an itch I can’t scratch. I miss the Wrath era and how vibrant and dynamic and crazy the ‘world’ could be.

Overall I feel like it was worth the time and money. But I know that’s not the case for many others.

My son still plays it sometimes and is trying to get me to come back for the new xpac. But I have zero enthusiasm for it. The last several months I was playing I would log in out of obligation and then almost immediately log off again because nothing sounded fun to do. I didn’t (and still don’t) like what they’ve done with both retail and classic. I guess I’ve moved on in life.

It’s funny how he’s been caught lying so many times on situations involving Epstein, yet he still expects people to believe he didn’t require girls trafficked by Epstein.

Nobody except a contingent of the most deluded rubes believes him. And rightly so. He’s a spineless, toady compulsive liar, with terrible judgment skills, no morals, and some creepy perversions.
