God the WBC drives me nuts. Those Genesis quotes about wipng away all the sinners because we’re bad—at the end of that whole thing the Big Guy makes a rainbow as a sign of his covenant that he will never do that again.

Not my first remembered news story, but when it happened I was in high school and my next period class was ‘Journalism 2'. That day’s topic, “What makes an event ‘newsworthy’.”

First news story I remember was President Ford’s motorcade getting into an fender-bender. That doesn’t really count, as it’s not the first major new story I remember, which would have been:

And that is why if I were her lawyer, that is the defense I would attempt to use. I just hope it doesn’t work, in this case. I will admit that my desire to see her convicted is based less on legal precedent than a desire to see some justice done.

The fact that her lawyer is doing the right thing by attempting it as a defense doesn’t mean that it will or should work. It’s not reprehensible, it’s just hopefully unworkable, because that’s not how the 1st amendment works. But if I were her lawyer, that is the defense that I would attempt because it’s the only one…

Yes, which always blows me away. Especially when he’s making fun of Donald firing Gary Busey on Celebrity Apprentice and he says that’s the ‘...kind of decision that would keep me up at night.” As he is saying that line, part of his mind is in Pakistan.

If this kid is able to consistently trade shitty things for better things, he needs to write a goddamn book. “Hey, it looks like you have a nice phone there. Mine’s old and shitty, wanna trade?”

Holy f**k this actually worked! Bless you.

What’s your metric? The battleship Nevada, some 2000ft away and still afloat after the first blast, would have been a ghost ship within days as everyone on board died of radiation poisoning. The second underwater burst rendered the ships that didn’t sink so radioactive that most of them had to be scuttled, instead of…

A common mistake, this is actually a ‘terra-plop’.

For the win!

I know it looks stupid but I swear to gawd I will never shit with my feet on the floor again.

I had no source. Yours does seem to indicate that the Uranium was HE, but doesn’t say to what level. I wish they would say, these details kinda matter.

I feel like that point was worth making twice.

Not actually. The plates were 20% Uranium, the 20% that was Uranium could have been 2% U235, which is barely enriched at all. It might say in the article how enriched the Uranium was, but I’m too lazy to read it.

Thanks for the spoiler, I appreciate it. I might have been all tense during the movie worrying about fatal outcomes but now I can just relax.

With such short memories. I thought we were all supposed to be living in Wal-Mart prison camps by now. Martial law has been coming tomorrow for at least 20 years now.

One of my best friends in the whole world just found InforWars.com, and thinks he knows the ‘truth’ about ‘everything’ now. So when Hillary gets in she’s going to take all the guns and declare martial law. Which apparently Obama didn’t have time to get to in his 8 years, since that was what he was going to do.

Oh, to be a fly on the wall when his little girls ask Mommy and Daddy why Jesus lied about wanting him to be president.

Nope, it’s just his personality. He could be giving out free puppies and blowjobs and I couldn’t vote for him because he looks and sounds like an alien wearing human skin. He’s got some weird uncanny valley shit going on.
