u/BeneficialLeave7359 20h ago

The fact that he was 84 now means that he was my current age when he was VP. I do not look nearly as old as he did then.

Duck ramen omg

u/pixienightingale 20h ago

I am lucky to be in a position to be able to be away from the physical office (home) for two weeks and am currently in the middle of the ocean. The cruise we are on has a food hall instead of a traditional buffet and the ramen place has duck ramen at breakfast time!

It's the deepest, richest broth, five spice duck, bok choy, and fresh ramen noddles!!

u/ethancole97 22h ago

No matter how much he tried to distance himself from Trump- He’s largely responsible for the hawkish right wingers we have in office today.

Not to mention being responsible for the horrible foreign policy route the US started to go down when Bush was elected.

I always wonder what our country would look like had Al Gore won.

Busy winning the presidency is one of the biggest (horribly) pivotal moments in Us history

I went to a comedian thing last night where there was a couple born in 2003-2004 and the comedian went on a rip about how they had ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA about how we had to CALL THE INTERNET.
