HEY HEY HEY!!!  
I would object, I live in Idaho, and I’m not (or wasn’t anyway) the only doper either.

I do have an alternate suggestion, buuuut, I’m pretty certain it violates board rules (yes even here in the pit)

As far as bundy, that worthless shitstain can get bent infront of his prize bull, fucking idiot might actually have a slime chance of getting on the ballot/elected

Move Idaho to Texas and make freedom fries before it turns into smoking slag.

**DorkVader** , we’ll try to give you fair warning before charging up the Jewish space laser. Would two weeks be enough time for you to sell your house, pack up your shit and get out of there…?

I live in Iowa … so a slagging might cause lots of popcorn vs fries. But right now I am willing to take one for the team.

\*My family might not be that willing. But since 600,000 dead isn’t making a difference, maybe ~3 million might?

I’m not sure, but I’m pretty sure that it already vaporized one of her toes.

Actually, Idaho is one of the places that California retirees go. Sell your house in California, buy one at least three times the size in Idaho, and pay lower taxes.

So many Californians have done that around here (Coeur d’Alene), the median sale price has gone from $238K in 2017 to $550K.

The far-right is taking over around these parts. Just today, in the local paper, are two stories of far-right taking over. The first involved the North Idaho College which fired it’s president for having the gall to institute a mask mandate. Now the kooky board has named the wrestling coach as interim pres. It appears he has no admin experience. The second story is about two righties battling for a local school board. One of the candidates is an anti-Semitic blabber mouth who recently moved here and doesn’t have any children enrolled in the schools. Both these numbnuts are fighting against the teaching of the leading shit-for-brains boogeyman, CRT. And obviously, CRT isn’t being taught in the district but you gotta stir up all the rubes to get them to vote for you.

I gotta tell you, I have a relative who’s a community college president. They work so much and deal with so much crap on a daily basis that I can’t imagine some athletics coach waltzing in and handling things with any degree of confidence. I think the coach will have a nervous breakdown in about a week.

Not sure where to post the latest news about our favorite pocket Constitution moron, so here it goes. My favorite quote from this article is this gem:

Don’t go telling Polio this news, Einstein Bundy. Keep it between you and “whatever”.

For the sake of Board Harmony, I hereby apologize to all hoes living or dead who may at some future date find the SDMB, read my post, and become insulted. Especially Idaho hoes. Obviously, there are no hoes who have posted or currently post to the SDMB.

If we’re sex worker positive, calling someone a hoe is not an insult to the one being compared to, although comparing any profession to a Bundy is.

Of course, there is the difference between “ho” (a sex worker) and “hoe” (a garden implement). And Ammon is actually much more like the latter.
