Detroit resident, Rep. John Conyers (D), passed away October 27, 2019 and served in Congress for over 50 years. His funeral is attended by current and former political leaders, former President, Bill Clinton. Maybe that's why people are able to justify a televised funeral that's been over three hours long and is still going on. All I hope for is that it is over when it's the end of my workday. I already have a long way to drive and traffic is messed up already, I don't want traffic double f*cked up!
DETROIT (AP) — A woman who made headlines when she accused a Detroit congressman of sexual harassment has been charged with passing thousands of dollars to a city official in a corruption scheme.
In a court filing, federal prosecutors say Elisa Grubbs accepted money from a business owner and turned it over to a city official. The official isn’t named.
Grubbs is charged with conspiracy. The charge was filed Wednesday as a criminal information, which means a guilty plea is likely. A message seeking comment was left with her lawyer.
Grubbs formerly worked for U.S. Rep. John Conyers. In December, she publicly accused him of stroking her leg and said she had witnessed him touch the legs of other female staff. Conyers was accused of other allegations, which he broadly denied.
It was a 5 hour televised funeral! Yes, the man was the longest seated African-American congressman, but his wife, Monica, also served a prison term for taking bribe money while she sat on the Detroit city council. Every fricken political person that has served the city of Detroit, beginning with Coleman A. Young, has been a crook.
When I was at work, there were some folks listening to the service and some were watching as it was streaming live. There is something to be said about African-American church services and funerals. You will always spot women designated as "nurses" to provide "medical assistance" to parishioners in distress. If I would have been in attendance and expected to sit through 5 hours of BULLSHIT, they would have had to administer a sedative, or something.
There's a 48 hour cool down period. If you unban someone you can't reban them until the 48hrs are done. You don't learn. Go back to fucking your mama and sucking your dad
Ah hah! So admin has made it impossible for THE member who has entered the Pic of the Month feature to beg and/or campaign for votes but, let's say their "friend", "secondary account" OR "interested party" can do as much begging and campaigning as they would like!
admin, maybe you could eliminate that possibility from the equation. Restrict any and all profiles from attempting to solicit votes by blocking the ability to include the Pic of the Month link in any private message.
Are you one of the members that help run the site? I read today a post of a member who said he did. The reason I ask is that you seem to know what Admin is doing even b4 he does
I think every active member on SYD/SYC helps run the site, don't you? I believe that admin takes our suggestions, thinks about our suggestions and decides whether there is value to the suggestions and if the ideas/suggestions are workable in his (admin's) own vision for the site, he may implement the suggestions. Don't you agree?
Great answer but not to my question. --------------------------------------- added after 22 minutes
BTW. Is Mr Tannertx one of the members that help out? Wait, I get it now. Plausible deniability. You guys don't want the members to bombard you with problems or sugestions. Forget I said anything.
Why ask me? Ask the member(s) that whined and whinged to admin about it. Any time a member enters the Pic of the Month feature, an "alert" is sent to EVERY MEMBER WHO HAS ADDED THEM TO THEIR LIST OF FRIENDS. So if you have 100 members that have friended you, you have 100 alerts sent out. If you have 1,000 members that have friended you, you have 1,000 alerts sent out. Why anyone would need to personally spam members for votes is beyond me. Why not ask your friends their thoughts on the matter?
I know their thoughts and DemonXer or whatever his name is. I saw it, along with your comments on the "The Pic of The Month is Flawed".
My question was in general. I'm sure there's really no reason to bother you. Sorry.
Regardless of how many "friends" any member has, it was MY OPINION that the voting looked really, really lopsided, just like my tits. It's hard to believe that the SYC members had a COMBINED TOTAL of 300 votes (MY GUESS) both [HOT] and [NOT] for the 3 entrants while on the SYD side, two of the members had over 300 votes each.
I'm having a difficult time believing that the majority of the members on this site are that interested in penises. Maybe I'm wrong, it wouldn't be the first time.
You have lovely tits. We don't know what you look like, dressed or undressed, but your tits are lovely. The site is a gay site with a female section as an afterthought. There should be an overwhelming reaction to two very popular men competing. Both DemonXer and AussieMan have a large male following. What's more, if you look at who's on line during peak hours you'll see a score of women and pages of men. Those numbers are not that surprising
It's not like that. I never made it impossible to send links to pic of the month, I just limited how often it can be sent.
If you dumbasses don't want to block people who send you spam or vote [NOT], which I must point out is there mainly for exactly this reason - so that members can downvote spammed pics, than it's not really my problem.
Question, So if I entered the Pic of the Month, I could still spam for votes? I'm just limited to how many times in an hour that I can ask individual members for their support?
No need to refer to members as "dumbasses", unless you are speaking of the dumbasses that don't use the blacklist button and continue to whine about what comes their way.
I'm addicted to the top member game. I buy 2000 points in the mid morning and have less than 100 by late afternoon. It's a good thing I'm here only when I'm off on comp time. Yes, I vote myself to the top. No, I'm not ashamed. Within 15 minutes of voting myself on top someone does the same. I must have spent over $300 in this new account. My regular points go too but I try to save them for pic voting.
Oh the process of entering and leaving the 'royal presence' is fraught with traps for the unprepared.
We are so uptight about these things - well some people are - that only recently I saw the issue of Michelle Obama having touched the Queen (another no-no) being rehashed for the umpteenth time.
I actually think for any political leader avoiding shellfish on official visits is probably a sensible idea.
Let's be honest who of use loves to be hit in the face by the aroma of garlic or other spicy foods when working.
Apparently, the former First Lady, Michelle Obama's faux pas is only BIG news in your country. I don't recall it even being an issue mentioned here. By the way, what happened, did she hug the Queen?
As far as avoiding shellfish, I'm not speaking of a State Dinner or whatever the formal dinners are referred to, having crab legs served and dinner guests wielding pliers while wearing bibs, but they are missing out on shrimp, clams, scallops and I'm sure many more.
And garlic, EVERYTHING tastes better with garlic! Dang! I bet they've never served spaghetti at a State Dinner, either! Why bother eating spaghetti if there's no garlic? By golly, it would only be noodles in tomato sauce. Tasteless..... Don't you folks carry TicTacs in your pockets or royal handbags?
Thank you. That's an interesting thought but I don't believe that there is a way for the name of a thread/topic to be changed.
Yes, there is a good amount of "bitching" that goes on in this thread but I think that there has also been a good amount of fun things and interesting things discussed here as well.
Andrew999, I'm not the one that started this forum. I'm one of the members that likes to bitch here. I'd like to know why you need to be here? If the bitching bothers you, there's a score of pages full of other forums you could go and complain about. My sugestion is you start on the last page and work your way forward.
He has expressed himself in a respectful and civil manner and deserves a respectful and civil response. My take away from his post is that he's tired of seeing so much bickering and he is entitled to his opinions just as any person is.
It doesn't bother me, and I'm not complaining. Maybe I should have put a smiling or laughing emoji after my comment to show it was a light hearted comment. It's amusing reading the comments, but it also baffles me why people keep on taking shots at each other. If you don't like a person, stop monitoring their activity, stop reacting to their comments.
That's what I said. I was trying for a positive response to your post by Bella. She always takes the opposite views to my posts. I wanted you to be happy.
Well the Walrus has updated her reason "why" for our blacklist by her. All our pics are fake, not one pic is real, and they are all Photoshopped. Really bitch, fuck off. And by the way, nobody has invented a Photoshop app to help your fat ass. Sounds like someone is hangry she doesn't get all the attention anymore. We haven't said a word about her for a long time. Been being nice, and she can't just leave shit alone. It's not our fault DC whooped her Aussieman's ass in POTM. And to think, to this day we still haven't blacklisted her.
The old saying; "Out of sight, out of mind." She's been looking at your beautiful Mrs. for 31 days and she is obviously thinking about you.
If I recall correctly, she admitted to "touching up" her pictures, so I hope she's not attempting to call you out for something she engages in. Besides, IF you do touch up your pictures, it has to be minimally. You have shared pictures of you and your wife, you are a beautiful couple. Accept the energy and attention that she has showered you with as a compliment and say, "Thank you!"!
Oh, the little man's build is appropriate for his height. Now YOU are one string bean of a man. I cannot understand how you talk about your appetite but don't seem to have an issue with weight. Life is NOT FAIR!

He suddenly resigned amid the controversy.

This time it cost her dearly. Her page is trashed with fresh rats, pissing dogs, etc.
Old bird seems to be getting worse. Forgets more, can't keep up, etc.

• neutral nail polish
• no garlic (in food)
• no shellfish
• there's protocol for walking and entering rooms
I love bold nail polish, shrimp and garlic, lots and lots of garlic.......

Lix might be the most disgusting person on site. That is a bold statement indeed but true.
It is a known site fact that Lix uses a shower curtain as her knickers! Gross!
