Off-Topic / Pop A Cork - Wine [440]


What preservation system are you using to keep wine good for that long? I have a VacuVin but find the limit with that is 6 or 7 days with a white and 7 or 8 with red. I've been thinking about getting a Coravin Model Six+ but I don't really drink enough wine to justify spending that much on keeping it fresh.

But they'll want the car taken back to UK every year for an MOT. Also, I think that residency permit holders can't drive foreign registered cars here for more than six months.

You mean that Republicans tend to live in the Moocher states, i.e. the states that take more from the federal purse than they contribute.

But it's OK with you making mistakes such as that one, everybody here knows that you're geographically divergent in the financial hemisphere.

We should remember that no matter what anybody says about Charlie Kirk, he was never convicted of felonies even once. Unlike somebody who was convicted four separate times at trials in three separate decades.

Here in Poland patriots have firm views on red:



It is rather like Myra Hindley offering child care advice.

Well, at least we haven't been convicted of felonies at four separate trials in three decades.


Perhaps a red cravat is being called for?

Isn't the British Grand Prix around May? Of course that's something else that draws far more viewers, both in the UK and here, than Kirk ever did.

What an original reaction to getting caught lying: just claiming that the lie one told doesn't matter.


And yet another lie from the Joke. The numbers I quoted came straight out of Newsweek, as I made clear in post #250 by linking to the source.


Why does the Joke feel the need to lie quite so much? What is it that he hates so much about reality that he has to try to create a fictional world to live in?

That's not true. Kirk went to both the Oxford Union and Cambridge Union and got his arse handed to him at both places. His staff carefully edited the film from both to make it look like he had some minor wins, but then both Unions released the full tapes and the hilarity became clear to all.

What to believe: data from the University of Chicago or opinions from a proven racist liar (e.g. you)? It's a tough choice, isn't it.


Another post from you, and astoundingly enough another lie. What a shock.


If that were true, you'd have no problem quoting such polls. But instead you don't. I wonder why.

Has isn't the same as had.


Don Taco would kill for a 26% approval rating (or at least order somebody to kill somebody): his current average approval rating is -9.3% (although that average was driven by a single poll that gave him a 6% approval rating and so improved his rating from the -10.3% it was on Sunday).

Oh dear, lying as usual. I don't know why you bother, telling the truth would have been quite effective, but for some reason you didn't want to say that in August he had a 26% approval rating. abc7chicago.com/post/chicago-mayor-brandon-johnson-sees-low-approval-ratings-poll-university-mansueto-institute-urban-innovation/17550271/

Clearly some people on the right are too dumb to even understand what the word "pronoun" means. Helpful hint: the words "men" and "women" are not pronouns, they are nouns. Nouns are used to refer to things or people, for example in "[Redacted] is a convicted felon." the word "felon" is a noun (while "is" is a verb, "a" is an article, "convicted" is an adjective and "[Redacted]" is a proper noun. Pronouns are used to replace nouns or proper nouns, e.g. "He is a convicted felon."

It's amazing how often some people are confused by simple grammatical concepts, but then some people also can't understand that it's wrong to take what they don't own or to sign credit applications with somebody else's name.
