I'd also like to take this moment to point out that Corey Stewart is from Minnesota.

In all seriousness, he is such a pain. Two restaurants turned him away after pressure from our community caused them to give him the boot for an anti-immigration event he was holding. Given the fact we are a refugee resettlement city, there was little sympathy. He ended up holding his event on Court Square, which is fine, he is entitled to that. There was a counter event planned but when the organizers of the counter event saw there were, like, 12 people at Stewart's rally they called it off to not give him the added attention.

People on twitter were quick to remind him about that!

Yeah, I may have been transplanted here at a year old, but I know better than to get into those arguments. He moved here after college, so he is firmly in carpetbagger territory.

I rarely visit PnR and have never really paid attention to this thread...but holy hell...this thing is colossal. Over 7,000 posts and still going.

There was a reason we made sure to continue the tradition that was started on the old board. Plus, let's be honest, there has been a lot of material to work with lately.

Putting the coal miners and the Blockbusters back to work. Good deal.

The whaling industry has been ignored for far too long also. Time to get the whalers back to work. They're suffering.

I have to say the whole "Trump for Coal Miners" thing is just the most baffling thing ever.  I couldn't imagine how I'd feel if a president specifically made bringing my job back a top talking point (couldn't I just have worked hard and found a better job by now?) while simultaneously making sure my employers were off the hook for making it more likely I'd get killed doing it.

On this plus side, this song could be relevant again!

We started this back on the Old Board and carried it over. P&R conversations were getting derailed by meme posts, so we made this thread to stuff all of jokes and memes in. In theory, it would just be pictures and memes and stuff and conversations would be at a minimum. But in reality, conversations and debates still break-out here.

This thread gets the most responses, but the Clean and Funny Pix thread in Klotsch gets the most views.

And you monsters took away the BotD thread. An era of Kate Upton GIFs, and you maniacs blew it up! Damn you! Damn you all to hell!

The unity of BOTD was a thing of beauty.
