I once worked with a guy who called himself a “taste-maker.”

I 100% agree with your statement.

Ahem - SPOILER ALERT?
Seriously. Why would you just reveal Rey’s origin like that?

I know, right? Like, what did he sketch his initial designs on?

I was just thinking something similar the other day: If he wanted to convince the Electoral college to choose a different candidate, what would he do differently?

I was pretty impressed with how the pickup remained structurally intact after being sandwiched like that.
My wife’s Focus would be a thin, grey layer crumpled between the bus bumpers.

How else are you supposed to pick up Daft Punk from the airport? In a Chrysler?

Just like Rhinos get pissed off if you don’t offer them a S’more at your camp fire, and they’ll come stomp it out.

Trump is the healthiest person to be elected to the presidency. He his “doctor” even said so himself.

I always heard that when white-water kayaking, the boat wants to go the same speed downstream whether you’re right-side up or upside down.

Same philosophy here, I guess.

Sheesh.

Correct.

The obvious choice: Dartz Prombron Red Diamond (with the optional Whale Peen Leather, of course.)

They can repeal whatever Federal laws they want.
But if car makers want to a) sell cars in California (and other states with their own environmental regs), and b) not carry a special California line in addition to their standard lines, car makers will still be beholden to emissions standards.

Moving the bar is not the…

Agreed. There are enough comically horrible things that this person says and does - that’s more than a lifetime of fodder for ridicule.

If we’re judging how a person looks as a measure for politicians, then we wind up with Reality TV personalities running for office instead of serious public servants. And goodness…

So, like, pans? How does that work?
Maybe a Bundt-cake pan...

I know this isn’t IO9, but...
Battlefield Earth was half-decent science fiction. I was disappointed with the ending though. Nuking the entire alien home world in a single, monster-sized genocidal sweep was a pretty lazy resolution for a writer to take.

But it was downright bat-chit frightening for the founder of a…

I’m no constitutional scholar, but I just spent 10 minutes googling this question, so I feel qualified to give my legally binding opinion.
