For me it's part of yawning. Ears pop when I yawn.

A lot of people have trouble with ears popping especially with airplanes. Hopefully you can take comfort in the stereotype of someone chewing gum to fix that problem.

There's also a scene in Saving Private Ryan where a dying soldier talks about smelling the bread from back home.

What if she voted for Jimmy Carter?

The Drew Carrey Show just finally got a streaming release a couple months ago. On Plex. All 9 seasons now.

Depends on how much Star Trek we've been watching lately.

None, and I can offer proof:

  • The Taking of Pelham 123 (1974) the crime was committed without cell phones, but in the 2009 remake with Denzel Washington they had cell phones and still chose to commit the crime.

  • The Manchurian Candidate (1962) we have a political assassination without cell phones. But in the 2004 remake with Denzel Washington the cell phones do not stop the criminals from being criminals.

  • Man on Fire (1987) the crime is a kidnapping. Then in the 2004 remake (with Denzel) again we see the same kidnapping is still committed with cell phones.

You add cell phones and Denzel Washington to the situation, and seems like nothing much changes.

We don't have enough children, our birth rate is too low. Yet allowing young immigrants to come in? Terrible idea for some reason.

Falling Down (1993), Freeway (1996) are two that I saw fairly recently and the 90's were jumping off the screen.

Pauly Shore had 90's career. Encino Man (1992), Jury Duty (1995), Bio-Dome (1996). His only movie of the 2000's was Pauly Shore is Dead (2003) which was about no one caring about him anymore.

That's just normal left.

Why do you think immigration is only a huge deal in election years? No one even talks about it unless there's an election coming up or unless it's Fox News complaining about Dems.

I wouldn't call that centerist because you're not claiming to be in the middle on any issues. Too many of these "ideas from both sides" are at complete contradiction to each other. One of the parties is overtly racist and says diversity is bad. Being a racist pro-choicer doesn't make you a centerist.

Also about news bias, it should be the default to be least biased in my opinion. The news should be boring and should just tell you what happened without telling you how you should feel about it.

Yeah would be great. That sort of reporting died a long time ago.

There is no political center between the current left and right parties in the United States. For example, one is pro-choice the other is pro-life. There is no middle on that issue. This is the post-truth world and we are now in different realities. You can't believe half of the Q stuff and then believe half of the Bernie stuff. If you don't follow politics enough to have an opinion you wouldn't call yourself a centerist.

Describing yourself as a "centerist" in today's conditions usually means you support Trump but are too embarrassed to say it out loud/you know you'll receive backlash for saying it.

 

Americantall.com is where I've been buying from recently. Do you have another option? ' I'm 6'4" and 200 pounds. A typical large is too short. XL and XXL is wider and not longer. I need a place to order a Large X-Long.
