PS: Thanks to all who have commented on their appreciation of this site. Without comments, I don't know for sure if anybody does. (Yeah, I can look at the stats, but it's not the same.)

PS It's sites like yours that make the internet worth visiting. Ever since the outbreak of the latest Israeli skirmishes the world has become even stupider. And I'm speaking specifically of Israel-worshipping "conservatives." What is wrong with these people?

PS Congrats. Crème de la stupid. That’s what keeps us coming back.

PS

I'm not sure there is a hard and fast definition for "Yacht Rock", and I'm certainly no expert, but I know it when I hear it. It's the kind of music that you'd expect to hear played at a marina party in 1977-1980.

I could name some examples: Christopher Cross ("Sailing", obviously), Robbie Dupree ("Steal Away"), Ambrosia, maybe some Hall & Oates, some Little River Band.

Soft rock, a little jazzy maybe, but with a smaller sound - not big stadium rock anthem music (like Journey or Foreigner).

PS: Good afternoon, everyone,

You're most welcome, Achmed. Seriously, Thank you for all that you do.
It's a tireless job, but someone has to chronicle the stupidity. Happy 3000th!



Mr. Alarmist...

I agree with Mr. Hail. Enquiring minds and such.

Happy Saturday! ☮️

PS: Alarmist, I got some grief from unz/iSteve commenters based on my comment that "her butt looks big in that dress". It did. I think they were right in hind sight (seriously, pun not intended till this moment) - or hind site? - because she looks very good in blue jeans. Were she a bartender or married woman with kids in a nice part of Brooklyn - or is it the Bronx - and not involved in politics, I'd have no hard feelings about that lady.

I didn't know you were still reading here, Radical Center. Thanks!

PS: No, I didn't write anything special (a little under) 3 years ago, at post 2,000. I did write a lot more about South Africa, starting off from an article by long-gone ex-pat Michael Witkin who visited after 10 years (but 47 years - at that point - after he'd originally left). "South Africa at War with Itself" was his long article that I started off with in an 8-part series "Cry the Deconstructed Country". See:

I see you wrote comments under them, Mr. Hail, so I'm just putting these links in for others. Yes, more attention ought to be paid to the place. I also don't know much about the election, but that formerly 1st-World nation seems like a lost cause now. I wish the White people well in getting out. Most importantly for us, there is a lesson to be learned that we are not learning yet. (I write "we" in the very general sense.)

PS Keep up the great work! Thank you for your efforts.

The Alarmist says: "I’ve only done two or three posts on my substack in two or three years"

What is your Substack URL?

PS

“We don't have a body like AOC so we don't expect tips, or anything further, to be put in.”
....

I haven’t seen many full-length shots of her, but I can’t say I’d be tempted to tip her even behind the bar.

In a world full of increasing stupidity, an average of 1.09 posts per day seems a bit light. Then again, I’ve only done two or three posts on my substack in two or three years (I’ve been so uninspired I’ve lost track of when I started it, so who am I to cast stones?).

PS

I notice that Peak-Stupidity #2000 has no milestone-celebration, just comments about South Africa:

https://peakstupidity.com/index.php?post=2000

By the way, --- given that South Africa has, for years, been teetering near "failed state" status, it's worth paying far more attention than we do. The attention should exceed the level of "memes" or "gotchas."

SA's recent election is as good an opportunity as any. But I see surprisingly little interest.

Steve Sailer has mentioned South Africa only two or three times in the past year. Only one of those had anything to do with the current situation, and he just made light of it "NYT: At least 'Kill the Boer' isn't 'Try That in a Small Town'..." (Aug. 2023).

PS

Well done, for keeping up the Stupidity-bashing.

PS: Thanks, Mr. Anon. I don't know those other 2, but I'll check them out. "Yacht Rock", huh? Who else would you say comes under this genre?

PS

"Life Beyond LA" is a pretty good song too:

Still, I think that "Biggest Part of Me" is thier best, a classic of the Yacht Rock era.

And congratualations on the milestone.

PS: Thanks, Mr. Smith.

PS: Greetings, Mr. Moderator!

Happy 3000th post!

Cheers! ☮️
