My 7 year old walked to First Grade alone when he was 6 and will do so to again this year. Both my 7 and 4 year old play outside in the front yard unattended with other neighborhood kids of the same age. They both know how to cross the street and are allowed to do so until dark. I'm lucky enough to live in a…

AND from a fuel efficiency perspective, touching the pedals negatively affects MPG. Only put your foot on the pedal when you need to!

I have a square reader for just this occasion. Slap it on the phone, swipe your dining mates' cards and your good to go. You do lose 2% to Square, but fuck it, it's 2%.

I think the point that others are trying to make is that you being horribly bigoted, not only with your complete lack of humanity by suggesting that another human should not qualify to be taken care of in their time of need while in our borders, but also by calling people in that situation 'illegals'. I'm sure you can…

That seems reasonable. No doubt though, many of the people involved in the dropping of the atom bomb on Hiroshima, or the incendiaries on Dresden, or the Bunker Busters in Afghanistan were probably pretty intent on killing as many Japanese, Germans, and Afghans as possible. Perhaps it's just how high up the chain of…

Yep, both sides are using overblown rhetoric. Imagine that. That being said, how many Palestinians does on have to kill before the war you are perpetuating can be considered genocidal? Is it a particular count, or is it a percentage or a population? Do children count as extra. I would assume that soldiers count as…

I've never understood all the labels and lines drawn and all that, but seems to me that if you are both fucking and dating... ya'll are kind of a thing. Again, I am, admittedly, no expert here.

But... he used proper ISO syntax on those dates. Gotta give a man his due even if he is passive aggressive dick weed.

Got to give the dude props for using proper ISO syntax on those dates though...

Hear Hear! LinkedIn is nothing more than a crowd sourced spam machine disguised as a social network. The Forbes article only helps prove that. And that's coming from someone that likes and uses Facebook.

Or at least it conforms with your bias! YAY for that. o_O

Pretty certain that article wherein the owners of a New York restaurant is completely unadulterated unconfirmed obvious bullshit.

Even an impassioned plea like yours comes with the qualifier "hot". "It is NEVER ok to leave children or animals locked in a hot car". I honestly can't imagine anyone that would disagree with you on that point. It gets a little less obvious though when it's 60 degrees out, the windows are cracked, the doors are…

Sounds like damned nightmare to cook on. I don't know how my kids survived toddler years.

a stove guard? No.

that read like hemmingway

Can I just say the thing this article didn't say. Fuck Ben Stein. Seriously? Why is there all this sweet talk to this creepy old douche. "from one of the foremost conservative economist/pro-life thinkers of our time" What? The man is the pedantic fuddy duddy version of pedantic fuddy-duddy Bryan Fischer and this…

I have the prime and couldn't agree more. Every computer can treat it as a local card, it's well supported on Windows, Mac, and Linux, it connects directly into your network instead of residing on a computer, it supports DLNA out of the box, and it has 3 tuners so you can record two shows while watching a third.

Here's the thing. When your first reaction to a story like this where there is a clear criminal act, a true monster like the litigious "nanny", and your reaction is "They were asking for it because they are stupid, naive, gullible, irresponsible, etc..." that is a cognitive bias. We think that way so we can feel like…

Umm...no. They are victims of a freeloading disgusting backhanded criminal. They may be naive, gullible, simple-minded, slow, or irresponsible that doesn't mean that a criminal gets to take advantage of them while they take the blame. We all want to feel better about this situation and we all want to feel like we…
