If they called it the Yes Master card I could get behind changing the name but it has nothing to do with slavery.


Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

Good thing the St. Louis Browns no longer exist! But what about the Red Sox? Do the White Sox still exist? I know the Chicago Black Sox are no more.

BigBob,

Nothing X-rated about a woman's chest! In regards to the EquityBater change, I was thinking more in line with the thinking on this site..."TrumpBater" or BillyBushBater..... Remember his quote, "I just grab 'em by the p___y"!

Lug,

I can certainly control myself and it certainly wasn't a regurgitation, but you did get one thing correct.... It was a quote...... Not invented by me...... Quotes and statements made by politicians and the right/left is something we ALL have to live with.

Nothing personal, but I sure miss folding those Land O Lakes butter side panels, that BigBob reminded me of, when I was a kid!

Tight chains!

This one is NOT satire, though.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/ml...nge-due-to-overarching-theme/ar-BB161ojR

The Houston Association of Realtors, commonly know as HAR, has made changes to its room descriptions on its online property database, replacing the term "master" with "primary."

Master bedroom and master bathroom will now say primary bedroom and primary bath.

"Some of these changes are simply good faith exercises to demonstrate awareness of historic improprieties or inequities," said Associate Prof. of Business at the University of Houston - Downtown Dietrich von Biedenfeld.

"Particularly in the south, we've had master slave culture. So, on a plantation, you would have a master of that domain who would then exercise control and dominance over enslaved or indentured servants, and so historically, to say that the master lives in a certain place, then it's sort of creates a tone that minorities are excluded."

The change comes after weeks of protests for racial equality and years of discussion about changing the terminology.

"The MLS Advisory Group regularly reviews the terms and fields used in the MLS to make sure they are consistent with the current market environment. The updates to primary bedroom and primary bath were among nine requests for review that were submitted by members and considered at the most recent meetings, including an option to show whether the property has an electric vehicle charging station and what direction the balcony faces for high rise listings," HARS wrote in a statement about the changes.

Ladonna Park, who is a member of HAR and President of the Houston Black Real Estate Association says the change is long overdue.

"I think it's more a sign of the times," she said "It's a sign that we are in the midst of change - what structural things can we do to make a difference?"

In a statement about the switch from 'master' to primary,' HAR wrote, "The topic has also been raised and considered for many years, so it was not a new suggestion to review the terminology. Many homebuilders stopped using the term "master bedroom" years ago. The overarching message was that some members were concerned about how the terms might be perceived by some other agents and consumers. The consensus was that primary describes the rooms equally as well as master while avoiding any possible misperceptions."

HAR also noted realtors won't be fined for using the word 'master' in their own marketing and that the change only applies to labels displayed on it online property listing database.

Heck no, I haven't lost my mind enough to vote for Trump. Not even if I have to give my master bedroom.

But you Trump fans should hope this insanity of the far left, the burning and property destruction, continues. If it does, I predict the middle class backlash will elect Trump.

I think it will continue until the election because the DNC thinks it is helping their cause. I hope it continues

One word!

PRIMARY

Primary Bedroom
Primary Cylinder/Valve
Primary Card
Primarypiece
Primarylist

Lots of nonsense going on now. The burning, looting, and property damaged cannot be blamed on the left, as those that do these things are thugs..... Just like the Alr-Right, the rable-rousing whites on YouTube, the guy who drove his car into the crowd in Indiana. THUGS..... BLACK/WHITE/LEFT and RIGHT.

I will admit, I voted for Trump in '16, even though I had a relative who got stiffed by him in his Atlantic City "The Greatest Casino since Lincoln", but his cavalier attitude regarding the economy, this virus and his general lack of true leadership, will NOT garner my vote in '20.

We've got only 300 miles of wall built, close to 3 trillion dollar addition to the national debt, with another couple trillion possibly being added, and have NO IDEA as to where the first 2.7 trillion went to.Virus cases spiking in Texas and Florida, after those Governors opened everything up. This is not leadership, but rather hip shooting, baseball cap on backward, adolescent jargon we get from him. "I'm the greatest president since Lincoln". I'd be satisfied with a GOOD president.

There's going to be a financial meltdown coming that will make 2008 look like a cakewalk. Losing your guns are the last thing you have to worry about.... Those who truly care about this country are going to have enough to do to get the economy back on track, and not let the the "Street if Cards", (Wall Street), and New York elite ruin this country.

I remember a button I saw in the mid '60's. BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL, WHITE IS WONDERFUL, GRAY IS KIND OF NICE TOO".

It is all a matter of opinion. IMO, if the right allows their first amendment rights to be taken and sits idly by while the 2nd is eviscerated, everything else will be irrelevant, including financial meltdowns. Robust economic growth can cure a lot of ills, some factions seen pretty intent on preventing prosperity.

The left did a good job of dividing us this election cycle, a lot that I didn't think would/could be polarized are now disgusted with what's going on and are solidly on one side of the other.
