Pornhub keeps an eye on their customers, Santa checks with them often when making his naughty and nice lists.

"While globalization, immigration and the free market have strong support from the winners of these themes – the plutonomists and the highly educated, in our view they seem to have underestimated the frustration of developed market middle and working classes," write Equity Strategists Ajay Singh Kapur and Ritesh Samadhiya. "We think Brexit could just be the first surprise in a re-calibration of the world away from globalization towards more inward looking policymaking. Away from Wall Street and more towards Main Street. Away from financial asset reflation to more income support and wage inflation."

Meanwhile the press thinks the Russians blew up this election cycle.

That is about as big as big can get. Thanks G.

Meanwhile a WaPo opinion headline today is "Why the white working class votes against itself." Last week it was Russia's fault. But that didn't stick and there was a tiny problem of not having any proof available, so apparently this week it's back to being the dumb voters' fault again.

Dang, I'm a news cycle behinder.

Favorite Christmas films...

National Geographic tries to sort the country into economic regions.

Yay nurses... I'm surprised Senators are so high.

Members of Congress is 8%, but Senators are 12%? People are either way, way down on their opinions of Representatives, or they're too stupid to know that Senators are Congressmen.

This has bugged me for a long time but I have given in to it. It's one of those things where common incorrect usage is giving a word a new meaning.

Technically, both Senators and Representatives are Congressmen. But in common speech, a Senator is a Senator and a Representative is a Congressmen. My theory is that because a Senator is more powerful, the Representative wants to have some of that power rub off on them by lumping themselves in with the Senators and referring to themselves as Congressmen.

But the Senators want to keep the Representatives at arms length, so they don't refer to themselves as Congressmen. They are Senators, thank you very much.

Interesting, I never knew that. You live in (basically) DC, so I'll take your word for it. I'll grant you that Representatives tend to be dumber and crazier than Senators since you've only got to get a small area of idiots to vote for you. Hell, I'd trust most city council people over Representatives, because nobody wants the city council jobs, it's only people who genuinely care (though they may care about opposite things than I do). Representatives all have dreams of moving up the ladder, and will pander to anyone.

Congressmen sounds better than Housers. :lol:

All humans - men and women - are men. I have just used two completely different words - men and men. Word association is classic junk science reasoning. It assumes a same word can only mean one thing.

Congressmen and Congressmen are two completely different words. And to keep you confused, we also have Congresswomen - who are also Congressmen.

Which are you?

Anyone care to explain what this actually is? I honestly don't get it.

It's a map of who voted for whom.

It shows rural areas appear to have more land than cities do.

The realist should be saying "Someone's going to have to wash this glass."

Or nod to the bartender for a refill. :blush:

Its more than that, isn't it? I believe its also the %'s in the areas.

The key shows 51 % and higher for each candidate. Not states or electoral vote, the popular vote. That why it shows those scattered cities for Clinton in large rural blank areas.

This proves I'm not typical. :lol2:

That's cool. I'd love to have a personalized one that had all events from my own life. Milestones, moves, vacations, trips, etc. It would be cool to be able to dive down into a week to see minor events. Data.

down to the week?... compared to? I think I already have this data for the things that I lived. Some are down to the day, birthdays, anniversaries; some are down to the season, some are one time events.

I find the graph confusing.

Sure. I could fill in the big events, no problem. I'd be curious to have all the small, but memorable events in my personalized chart too. But I don't have mental time stamps for all of those.

I would like it too, especially if it was something that just happened on its own, like a sci-fy story....and you could access it with VR goggles.

Absolutely. It has to happen on its own. I don't want to do that work.

But no peeking into the future. The chart needs to end with today.

Oh, no. No, no.

I desperately need to know the exact date & time I'm gonna get laid next.

Desperately.

apparently, you make your own luck.

get BUSY man!

Unfortunately it's been one a week for the last two years.

Expressing voter opinion in the form of a topographical-style map. Weird, but effective.

When I make my own luck, it's usually bad.

I need to try someone else's luck.:p:

Pornhub year end report has a bunch of graphs by country, by state, by sex, searched for categories and time watched.

Porn Hub my favorite.

4.6 Billion hours watched.

There are 7 billion people on the planet, so that's 4.6 divided by 7, or .65 hours per person on the planet. And 0.65 hours is 39 minutes per person on Earth

The also say 12.5 videos viewed per person on earth, so that means there are 12.5 videos in 39 minutes. That works out each video being an average of 3 minutes and 9 seconds long.

If you look a the times per state, Mississippi is high with 11 minutes.

Isn't that how long it takes to have sex? ;)

Define "sex".

Right. Lights *on*.

Most expensive cities, monthly, to live in...

I didn't expect to see Auckland in there

Want to bet the red is much smaller in four years?

Selling it is a Congressional matter. That's why they lease it out instead.

Yes, Congressional matter, but I'll bet a lot of it, along with airports and toll roads, become privatized during the next four years.

Child mortality

Where does the money go?

Where is a $3trillion spent (borrowed to pay for) the Mission Accomplished war? (That does not include other wars such as Afghanistan.)

Odd that social security is considered spending when it should really be considered repayment.

If we were to subtract social security from the government's accounting (on the assumption that what goes in goes back out and is not a fee for service nor a grant and is not income for the government) how would that affect the pie?

I like how you said aaaalll that a never used the word entitlement.

They stripped the Social Security fund to support the Vietnam war, so now they(we) have to pay for Social Security.

Yeah. What should really be happening is that money from the military budget should be repaying the pilfered social security funds. With interest.

Wars do not actually help the economy.

Bud light = $2,022 x 1million = $2,022,000,000. That's over $2Billion just for Bud Light.

~ Pennsylvania represent! Family-owned kicking ass up against the big bevs! ~

I can't have carbs but uh you guys should drink this

Yuengling had their nose so far up Trumps ass it was disgraceful. I quit drinking it. :eyebrow:

Fuckin' good for them. I have friends who voted for Trump.

Why does it matter? Superstition!! What is the rhyme now?

Drink a beer that favors Trump
Seven years you'll have bad luck

My god I like to mock my friend who loves Politics but hates Sports

We are now at the Beer Sponsorship phase of them being exactly alike.

I still don't go to McDonalds because Ray Croc was Nixon's biggest campaign donor. I also don't go to walmart because they're evil. If Yuengling can show bias, so can I. http://cellar.org/2012/bwekk.gif

Drink a beer that favors Trump
No Roe v. Wade = baby bump

Drink a beer that favors Trump
Ship the school books to the dump

Drink a beer that favors Trump
Grab a pussy, squeeze a rump

Drink a beer that favors Trump
Marginalize others into one big lump

plz change that last line to:

"Eight more years you'll have bad luck"

what was I thinking before. meter isn't everything.

right, besides, he's all about divide and conquer and divide.
