Most interesting view I've ever seen of this.

Willie Nelson with my mother's favorite singer in the 1960s and he's still performing. Every decade of my life he's been out there and here he is last month. His voice is almost gone but he can still play that guitar. He's 91, and still packs them in.

The older I get the more I appreciate things like this. This girl has a whole Channel of nothing but rope jumping. I would thank God if I believed he existed.

Trying to become aware of the condo crisis in Florida. There's been a few dozen videos to choose from in the past month but I don't know where to start, but here's the latest one I ran across from a day ago so it's the most up to date. There's nearly a million Florida condos that are going to be in danger of being evictions in the next quarter.

Do Not buy a Florida Condo until 2025! (Condo Crisis gets worse!)

I'm in the preliminary stages of the hunt, but that new law may open up opportunities.

The biggest mistake people make buying a condo is they only look at the unit itself and the price. Understanding the board, bylaws, insurance, and assessments is more important.

There's a YouTube channel I watch all the time from Florida where the guy talks about real estate prices and condos and he says there's a crisis going on in Florida. Nobody's buying and everybody's selling and he thinks it's because we're already in a recession. He has also pointed out that the car auctions are taking in far more repossessed cars to sell then since before covid. This one auction usually has one row of repossessed cars now it has three or four rows every two weeks. This is also a sign of a recession and the Press isn't covering it for obvious reasons. People are desperately trying to sell their homes, banks are repossessing their cars and they are using credit cards to buy groceries and to pay utility bills. All of these are signs of a really bad economy.

I see the economy being discussed, not politics. Maybe try not to make everything about politics and you will not see political click bait at every turn?

Sadly, a group of social misfits has learned they can make serious money on youtube by making asses of themselves by harassing government employees.

LOL..... Give me a break. You know damn well what he's doing; don't try to pretend you don't. It's classic EB tactics. He's done this before. Look at his statement above:

"This is also a sign of a recession and the Press isn't covering it for obvious reasons."

Ask him what those "obvious reasons" and he'll say, "I can't say or else I'll get suspended."

Because those "obvious reasons" have to do with politics, or else he would have said what the reasons are.

Regardless, this thread is about YouTube, not the economy or recessions, so either way it's a hijack (again, typical of EB).

Discussing a YT video in a YT thread is not hijacking at all. It is a valid discussion.

Sorry, but still do not see it as being political. We have a few people on here who will make what kind of ice cream you like political but they have to lean to behave.

The whole auto market is in terrible shape. The next six months to twelve will be painful for them.

No embed, because the forum code doesn't handle shorts, as far as I know.

Gambling on Roomba pool.
I believe they have action on last ball pocketed, but other sidebets could easily be played.
May the cards fall in your favor.

I met a guy at the VFW who called himself a Constitutional Scholar and First Amendment Auditor. As he described it, it sounded interesting. Then he gave me his YouTube channel, and it is hundreds of videos of him screaming at cops and making ridiculous demands of VA and Post Office workers. He recently did 30 days in jail and celebrated his release by getting arrested outside the jail. He and his buds drive around listening to police scanners and then show up at scenes. Now some people follow them and try to interfere with them. It's nuts. A cop can be doing a traffic stop, and suddenly, five clowns run up to them, followed by another fix or six people to film the clown show.

This guy is going over a poll of what women consider the least or most attractive hobbies of men.

Heh, Gambling + Crypto fall at the bottom.

I think hobbies like offshore power racing, owning race horses, or stunt flying, where the participants must be uber-rich, would be most attractive.
It's funny, but I've had men swoon when I show them a comic book, where 99% of women care more about the books worth than the book.
I have a rather plain-looking semi-precious tennis bracelet that isn't particularly attractive, but when I show people its COA and that Marylin Monroe wore it in a movie, women all want to try it on, and multiple men have tried to smell it.

I remember coming across this video years ago, and noticed it came up in the sidebar. Very interesting.
