Oh Skywest (or Southwest)?

•This sky god is better than this sky god
•This region of the country is better than.....
•This political belief is better than the others
•These set of people are way better than these

Just stop it. I’m not here to validate your beliefs and the same goes for my crew mates towards me. Like @Derg said my skin color probably filters out a lot of the B.S. that people want to bring up.

When I was based in DFW:

”Welp ready for your weird layover in SLCf with their dumb booze laws?”

”Don’t you live in a dry county?” (Thinking, it’s ‘weird’ dumb when THEIR church makes laws, but when YOUR church does, it’s fine... OK)
 
yes Doug I have zoomed with you
And if you haven’t been • housed in SLC, even with their (now semi liberalized) liquor laws it’s because you didn’t try hard enough. Or one was sufficiently unpleasant so as to be not sponsored.
But anyway.

Now he’s really famous — it made NBC’s Today Show.

Did the hosts issue a warning before playing the clip? Were they visibly shaken after what they heard?

"Folks, allow us to explain...in those non-masked death camp states...apparently they drive (gulp) pickup trucks that are non-hybrid...and these trucks have the ability to emit high levels of C02 or "coal" on demand."

This is one of my favorite things. I've served up some wonderous blank stares over the years for comments like this.
 
Don’t forget needing their stimulus checks to buy diesel from Citgo because it’s 3 cents cheaper.
Anyone that owns one of those trucks and needs a stimulus check for fuel is an idiot that has their priorities completely askew. I was looking at another site earlier today and there was a thread about the ridiculous costs paying for annual registration on normal trucks, the OP was complaining about an '01 Ford F250 costing almost $500 to renew. I feel that pain, I don't recall the exact amount when I renewed my '18 F150 in December, but I do recall feeling like I did after my first prostate exam as I walked out of the AAA office. Regardless, I bought the truck knowing it's a truck, mileage isn't going to be great, cars are more comfortable for passengers and registration was going to be a lot more expensive because it's considered a commercial vehicle, I've been dealing with that for decades at this point. I accept the consequences of my actions and I can't imagine driving a car as a daily driver so I pay the fees. Odd thing is if I permanently attached a shell to the bed I could lose the commercial designation and save a bunch, but I won't because trucks with snugtops are way to close to cars. By the way, what stimulus check?

Soo many trucks without license plates around the Metro. Didn’t realize there were so many urban farms. Our village is not short on idiots. I put them right up there with the Grumpy Old Man screaming “Keep yer gub’mit hands off my Medicare!!” Same folks who dodge the property tax then whine their neighborhood street (yea, no farm) isn’t getting the snow cleared off in a timely manner. Ummm...truck.

Sorry, I hit my weekly quota for dumbassery on Monday afternoon.

If you want to see the epicenter for lifted diesel dumbassery travel to the 909, The Valley Of The Dirt People, or as it's properly known the Inland Empire area of Southern California. Lots of polished $75K lifted diesel trucks that will likely see nothing more rigorous than parking in the owners friends front yard (sometimes by his wife).
 
Down here by Pendleton we get a lot of Corporal Dumbasses in their lifted penis enhancement trucks flexing on...someone? Word to the wise, E-4. Put that money in savings or invest in a 401k.
Way back in the dark ages of 1989 a much younger me was a Navy Hospital Corpsman working at Naval Hospital Camp Lejeune. I was a ward jockey at the time, working in what passed for a Pediatrics ward. We got this kid in, maybe 30 days old, admitted for failure to thrive, i.e. he wasn't gaining weight, at all really. Nice kid, no trouble at all. Well, all we really did was feed him properly and see what happened, and what happened was he gained a pound in 3 days.

Navy family services got into the act, seems daddy, a LCpl (E-3), had a nice car, a very nice car, a new Corvette. Momma wasn't going to let Jr. eat the old fashioned way, and well, formula was cutting into gas money, so baby got sugar water. Later, and not much later at that, I cared for his premee younger brother when I worked the Newborn nursery. Both of them ended up with the grandparents, which I hope was an improvement, but then the last kid they raised was the daddy in this story.

Those kids are in their early 30's now, damn I'm old.
