OK, a least common denominator is composed of prime numbers. As has been proven by mathematicians thousands of years ago, there is an infinite amount of prime numbers.

Let's begin with the first five; 2, 3, 5, 7, 11

Let's let 2 = You missed your 8th grade graduation because you had jury duty.

Let's let 3 = You invite your 14 year old daughter over for dinner along with all of her kids

Let's let 5 = You think the Waffle House is an upscale restaurant

Let's let 7 = You can burp and say your name at the same time

Let's let 11 = Your pickup truck has chrome bull balls hanging off the trailer hitch

If you check the box to two or more of the five above, you will find yourself in the least common denominator category.

If needed, we can expand the sampling size of the aforementioned population to increase the desired confidence level.

silentbuddha, I hope this is serious enough. We're dealing with mathematics and statistics.

He definitely appeals to the lowest common denominator of society.

Just curious what use you have for Merkel?

@JoenB75 .....

The same use as we have for Trump. Just placeholders. Merkel just seems a lot more civilized.
I can't picture her on Twitter constantly calling people she doesn't like childish names and sons of bitches.

We'll trade you Trump for Merkel, 500 million in cash, and a first round draft pick next year.

i miss listening and dancing to live music on a weekend night.. i miss going into a crowded mall store to window shop.. i miss going out into public and not having to wear a mask.. i miss seeing people freely mingle on a busy street or sidewalk.. what a difference a year makes!.

I’ve also seen people boxing, and there is a couple that often practices knife throwing.... By the way, I also train with swords and sais in the park as well.

@jp1492 ...

I must be boring. I do golf and tennis. Very boring I guess.

Crime is d own this year in most major cities

silentbuddha ...

I'm not sure where you are getting your facts from but the top 5 (major cities as you call them, NY, LA, Chicago, Houston, Phoenix) have had significant increases in crime this year. Where are you getting your "facts" from?

Yes, there has been crime as long as we can remember. Under 8 years of Obama, there was crime. Under 8 years of Bush the Younger, there was crime. Under 8 years of Clinton, there was crime ... go back as even further if you want.

But what has lit the fuse for this country to go crazy? Elections ? Trump ? Just a volcano waiting to erupt ?

I don't get it. Crime has overall been coming down over the past 20 years and now things are erupting all over.

Any thoughts ?

Rub, if you really don’t want to contribute to a thread why do this stuff? ..... The class clown 🤡 strikes again.

Min .....

Am I really a class clown? I view some of my thoughts (some may disagree) as observing the absurdities of our existence.

I mean you have to agree posing in public like jp1492 with the broom thing could cause some odd stares by neighbors and people walking down the sidewalk. He wasn't doing this in some gym or enclosed area.

Similar to seeing Jethro Tull concerts. I remember Ian Anderson, the lead singer and flautist. He wore odd-looking clothes like from a Peter Pan movie, tights, pointy boots and played the flute standing on one foot with the other foot twisted into his crotch somehow. Great music, went to the concerts at least three times. A lot of hit songs (especially from the Aqualung album). But if I did that in the front yard in public I would likely have a social worker knocking on my door Monday morning.

That's all. I really didn't think that was "class clown" material.

Min, ok, I guess I didn't make a contribution.

I stand corrected.

Maybe if you had seen the faces on the people walking down the sidewalk when I was doing that stuff with the mop handle you would understand.

I any case, I stand corrected. I will improve.
